Stolen Time

Breathe in

You were walking towards Spencer's car. The both of you had immediately walked out of your apartment after Hotch called. You could see Spencer's hands shake as he was looking for his keys in his pockets. Once he got them out you snatched them from his grip. He looked at you mouth agape and confused.

"I'm not letting you drive like this" you walked to the drivers door

He didn't bother arguing and walked over to the passengers seat getting in. You pulled out of the parking spot and began to drive. From the corner of your eye you could see Spencer picking at his nails and his breath hitching. You held your hand out and he laced his fingers between yours.

"Thank you" you felt his eyes land on your face

"For what" you looked at him for a split second before returning your eyes on the road

"For having the kindest heart" he squeezed your hand

You felt your cheeks flush

"I'm so sorry that Cat ruined our night and basically interrupted you. What were you going to tell me?" he searched your eyes

"It can wait" you turned and flashed him a smile

You didn't want it to wait. You wanted to throw the words I'm pregnant at his face but this was definitely not the moment

...

You were both standing in the elevator with your hands still intertwined.

"Spence" you looked up at him

"Yeah?" he looked down at you

"We are going to find her" your grip tightened around his hand

He responded with an "I love you"

"I love you too" you smiled

The elevator rang and as the doors opened the both of you let go of each other's hands and began walking thought the glass doors into the bullpen. Heels clicking and he adjusted his coat. You were met with Derek

"Why are you both so dressed up?" Derek walked up to the both of you with an eyebrow raised

You had completely forgotten that you and Spencer were dressed up

"Uh-- long story, I have work clothes in my bag I'll change soon" you smiled

"How did she escape?" Spencer went back on topic

"Come on the rest of the team is in the conference room" Derek began walking and the both of you followed

As soon as you walked in everyone was staring directly at you and Spencer

"Long story" Spencer sighed "Now can someone tell me how she escaped"

"Yeah we will definitely talk about this later" Hotch raised an eyebrow and look towards Penelope

Penelope had a smirk on her face but got back on track. Footage of Cat's cell was now on the T.V screen. One moment she's there and the next she's gone. Before the footage cuts out to an empty cell she is clearly staring at the camera waving. As if she was saying goodbye.

"Fuck" Spencer pulled out a chair and sat on it with a huff

"All of the tapes have been wiped clean for exactly 15 minutes. Not only were they wiped, there was a riot so by the time everything was under control Cat was gone" Penelope's smile turned into a frown

"Garcia has anyone been reported missing in the last 24 hours?" Hotch looked from screen back to Spencer

"I can check" she sat down and opened her laptop "May I ask why?"
