"Look… all I want is to help you, not to add problems to your list. Don't try to guess the right thing, just be yourself, ok? Ask what you want, do what you want. And if anything in my actions or words makes you uncomfortable, say it. I'm serious, Spencer. It wouldn't hurt me, but if I upset you and you don't tell me to stop, I might end up upsetting you even more – now that would definitely hurt me. So you just be yourself. What's on your mind right now?"

But when Derek is almost asleep, Reid suddenly says, "I think I love you."
"Hmm?" Morgan comments it before he can realise what exactly he just heard.
"I definitely love you," repeats Reid, obviously taking it as a sign of approval. "My emotional state has been stabilised for a long time now, and I also checked everything a few times to be sure. This is not a simple need of being close to anyone, this is not a fan-like love for an idol and, as we both know, my feelings are not purely platonic. Therefore, my conclusions."
Morgan, who by this point is as awake as he can ever be, is torn between a few possible reactions. He can panic, because now it's official and he has no way out, and that's exactly what he was afraid of for so many years. He can laugh, because honestly, Reid is absolutely adorable with his analysis in a situation like this. And he can kiss him, because this is suddenly one of the best and the happiest moments in his life. He goes with the option number three. When he pulls away after a long tender kiss, Reid keeps holding his face in his hands. Reid looks at him as if searching for something, and then he says as heavily as if at least the fate of the world is at stake, "I love you, Derek."
"And I love you," says Morgan back with the same serious attitude.
Reid smiles happily. For a few seconds Morgan is trying to remember, what did he run from all these years, and then he lets it go. Looks like while he was saving Reid, Reid somehow managed to save him. Morgan hugs his lover tight and goes to sleep, peaceful and happy. They won't disappear.
