୨୧ — jj’s confession; s.r (1)
of course the one day you decide to take a day off, your best friend confesses her love for your husband
bau!reader x husband!spencer reid
warnings: emotional cheating (kinda), fighting (kinda)
spencer didn’t tell you about what had happened that day. once he got home he wanted to forget the whole thing ever happened, so he wouldn’t have to think about choosing between waiting on jj and loving his wife.
"hey." was all he said as he walked into your shared home, hanging his satchel on the coat rack and heading straight for the bedroom, all without making any eye contact with you.
this was odd for him, as he usually greets you with a hug and kiss once he gets home and would sit with you and talk for upwards of 20 minutes before you decide to go to bed. but you just assumed it was a tough case that reminded him of you in some way, which was often the case.
it had been almost half an hour since he went into the bedroom and you were growing concerned. what could he be doing that's taking so much time. giving up on waiting, you decided to head to bed to find him already dead asleep on the bed.
the next day, he continued with the same odd behavior. all you got that morning was a "good morning" before he walked out to the kitchen as opposed to the usual forehead kiss, back hug, and cuddle.
you were about to confront him about the odd behavior when you got a call from penelope.
"hello?" penelope started frantically ranting about jj and spencer until you had to tell her to slow down. "jj said she was in love with reid. now i don't know the legitimacy of her statement because they were in a hostage situation but i talked to spencer and he was panicking saying he didn't know who to choose, i'm sorry." your heart dropped.
"um. ok, thanks for letting me know." hanging up, you paced in the bedroom for a bit thinking about what had happened.
he said he didn't love her anymore.
he said that the feelings were only temporary.
he said he loved you.
she promised she didn't like him that way.
you were too caught up in your thoughts to notice spencer walking into the room asking what was wrong. "when were you going to tell me?" you ask, assuming he knows exactly what you're talking about.
"what do you mean?" is all he says. "you know exactly what i mean spencer, jj saying she loves you? then you go to penelope saying you don't know who to choose? how about.. i don't know, your wife." he stays silent and just looks at the floor.
"say something." again, he just stares at the floor. "come on spencer don't go silent on me now. what the hell happened?"
finally, he looks into your eyes. "i'm sorry." is all he says.
"sorry doesn't do anything right now. did you mean what you said? about not knowing who to choose?" sitting down on the bed he simply looks up at you. "i don't know."

JJ walked away from Reid... passed by Emily.... to get to Will.
there's a lot to unpack in this scene, i once went berserk about it... 5 pages of my old journal can attest to that

okay, what the fuck are they doing with JJ and Reid right now?
I did not like that whole thing, I and I wanna believe JJ really just needed to say something to get that guy's attention (tho the way she was explaining that..... wtf)
first of all, I adore Will and his relationship with JJ, so don't even try anything there
and second of all, Reid and JJ's friendship is the best, don't ruin that now by even insinuating anything more pls - like, if they pursued this at the beginning, and it wasn't just a one episode thing in s1, yeah, maybe, I thought that's where were going, but over the rest of the seasons they were best friends, and I love their friendship so much, and I genuinely do not like that whole storyline with her basically saying that she loves him romantically? jfc please don't
like, what was that???
like, listen, the main reason this show is so good and why I love it so much, is because of the friendships, and how there's nothing romantic between the team members - e. g. I was so happy that they never went anywhere with Derek and Garcia, despite the constant flirting 😂 the friendships and familial, platonic relationships are what makes this show, don't get in here with any romance ffs, that's with people outside the team, we don't need that here
please I hope this thing doesn't continue in s15, let's just forget about it like we did about that "date" in s1 that was brought back up for the first time (I think) in s14 😂
anyway, great season, loved it, tho it was so short 😭 (and that little plot with JJ and Reid... no thank you)
