    Summary

    Spencer Reid knows Aaron Hotchner.

    It’s impossible not to, really, with how long and how closely they’ve worked with each other. And one could argue that Spencer also knows the others. Knows that Rossi drinks his coffee black with one sugar, knows that Morgan’s favourite colour is burgundy, knows that Garcia’s favourite Taylor Swift album is “Lover”, knows that JJ prefers sudoku over crosswords and that Prentiss likes to sleep with two blankets even in summer for the comfort of the added weight. Spencer arguably knows all of them, not least because he has a hard time forgetting stuff.

    But Spencer knows Aaron Hotchner

     

    Or: The sun is hot, the sky is blue and Spencer's in love with Hotch, all facts of life. But maybe, just maybe, Aaron Hotchner is just as in love.
