Summary
When Spencer Reid dies at the hands of an UnSub for the second time in his life, he expects it to be the end. However, one strange encounter with an unidentifiable entity later, and Spencer experiences the seemingly impossible; waking in his own body over a decade earlier, on the floor of Tobias Hankel's shack, with a head full of memories of events that haven't yet come to pass. Reeling from the displacement and desperate to change what's coming, Spencer confides in Aaron Hotchner, and hopes that together they can prevent the tragedies that Spencer already experienced once from coming to pass a second time.

Summary
And there it was.
Haley was having an affair.
But, could he blame her, when every impure thought Aaron had come up with in the last six months was not of his wife, but of his younger, male coworker?
OR
cheating but neither of them are even mad about it

Summary
My take on the aftermath of the case in Canada (end of S04).
When everyone leaves to their respective homes, Spencer approaches Hotch and admits that after everything that happened, he doesn't want to spend the night alone. Hotch gives in and allows him to crash on his couch.
Or: what would have happened if Hotch wasn't alone that fateful night.

Summary
Spencer carries his exhaustion like Atlas carries the globe, dragging himself to Aaron’s side when a case has taken a toll on him, never quite initiating but looking at Aaron with those same wide eyes that tell him exactly what Spencer wants, what he needs.
Aaron meets him with open arms every time, pulling him closer to tuck him into the space where Aaron’s neck and shoulder meet, a hand on the back of his skull to keep him there so Spencer doesn’t have to worry about when he’s supposed to pull away, how long he’s allowed to indulge. It’s as rewarding for Aaron as it seems to be for Spencer.
Over the months of this slow, developing change in their dynamic, Aaron is finding that he wants nothing more than to give Spencer what he needs.
AKA Spencer has always been touch averse. Aaron is realizing he may be an exception to the rule.
