Texts From Last Year

Summary:

A texting fic that's not a texting fic.

Spencer and Aaron have been together for so long it's only a matter of time before the team catches on. In fact the two of them have been trying to figure out how to break this unexpected news to the team. While they drag their feet someone decides to take matters into their own hands. A seemingly average workday is interrupted with the buzz of scandal when the entire office is sent a link to a website with a years worth of private texts. Thankfully its anonymous but it may not be for long - especially when the BAU is tasked with discovering who is behind it. (Must be a light day crime wise....)

Notes:

The text interludes between each chapter are not chronological - merely topical snippets from past conversations.

Chapter 1: The Beginning

Chapter Text

S: Why do you carry two phones?

A: The other is for my secret double life.

S: The one you have a copious amount of free time for?

A: One is my work phone and one is for personal use.
A: Why so interested?

S: "Curiosity is one of the permanent and certain characteristics of a vigorous intellect."

A: Are you asking for my number, Dr. Reid?

S: I thought you were supposed to ask someone for their number before you slept with them?

A: That is exactly the kind of text that should not be sent on a FBI issued cellphone.

S: So if I got another phone I could send sensitive texts?

A: Define sensitive texts.

S: Text that would violate several of the FBI’s fraternization rules and potentially constitute as sexual harassment.

A: ....
A: A second phone might not be a bad idea.
A: For privacy. An added security measure.

S: So if I got another phone would you ask for my number?

A: Yes, but if I follow the precedent you've set then I suppose I'd have to sleep with you first.

S: Would you mind if left work immediately to go take care of something?

A: There is an electronics store just off Rt 1. Be back before the afternoon briefing.
