Spencer Reid One Shots

Pregnancy (angst/fluff)

Your fingertips burned under the cold ceramic tile of your bathroom counter. You were anxiously waiting for the results of the pregnancy test you had just taken. The 3 minutes of waiting felt like hours.

You were overwhelmed with anxiety as you knew the dad would probably not be in the picture as you two weren't even together. Yes, you were in love with him but he could never feel the same way about you in a million years.

It all had started about 6 months ago when you and your best friend/coworker Spencer Reid drunkenly hooked up. The random hookups continued these past few months, but you slowly started to develop feelings for him and it broke your heart knowing that he didn't want a relationship. So when you had missed your period and you began showing pregnancy symptoms your heart dropped and that led you to taking a pregnancy test alone in your bathroom at 12am.

The timer from your phone rung throughout the room and with trembling hands you picked up the pregnancy test off the bathroom counter and slowly flipped it over until it was in eye view.

Two lines.

Fuck.

You had no idea where to go from here. How would you tell Spencer? You picked up your phone dialing the only number of the person you knew who could give you the best advice on what to do in this situation. Of course you would have to reveal the true nature of your relationship with Spencer, but it didn't matter now the whole team would know soon enough.

The ringing of the phone blaring in your eardrums made you break down in a panic. Tears were now streaming down your face as the reality of the situation had just hit you like a truck.

"y/n, what's wrong?" Penelope sleepy voice rung into your ear.

"I-I," your breath caught in your throat and you couldn't get any words to come out of your mouth. Penelope could obviously hear the distress in your voice and your loud sobs from the other side of the phone.

she replied "I'm coming right over, whatever it is your gonna be okay." She hung up and would be here within the next ten minutes since she didn't live that far from you. Her words of encouragement brought you comfort for about 10 seconds before you slid down the back of the bathroom door and started sobbing into your hands.

Right on cue about 10 minutes later you heard your front door open and Penelope's feet shuffling against the floor to the bathroom. She no doubt knew you were in here because she could probably hear your loud sobs as soon as she opened your front door.

It took all your strength to stand up but you did, and opened the door right before Penelope did. As soon as she saw your disheveled look she immediately pulled you into her embrace, which made you break down even further. After a few minutes of her holding you, you were able to gain some of your composure back and stop crying for the most part.

"let's go sit." She encouraged you and led you into your living room onto the couch. You sat down slowly and wiped your eyes on the sleeves of your sweater. "Please tell me what's wrong I've never seen you like this."

"Umm, I-I'm p-pregnant and I don't know what to do. I can't raise a baby by myself Penny."

"Hey who says you'll be by yourself, you have the whole team and I know each of us will help you with whatever you need." She replied sweetly grabbing your hand and squeezing as encouragement.

"That's the thing Penny, I'm gonna have to leave the team because,"

"Why y/n, who's the father?"

"It-It's Spencer and I'm in love with him and he doesn't feel the same way and I don't want to burden him with this, he's already been through way too much, I mean we aren't even together. It was stupid getting involved with him because I knew it would end badly." You whispered not having the energy to talk at full volume at the moment.
