Meeting the Family

(Lexie POV)


It's been a few days since the case, Spencer and I were going to meet or well I was going to introduce him to my family. I grabbed my luggage and a smaller bag full of toys for Jack. "Hurry up Reiders." I say and Spencer finally comes out of his apartment. "Finally, let's go." I say and we go to my car and we put our luggage in the trunk and I drive off towards the airport. We went through security and all of the procedures, then we made it to the gate. "Ready for Rio?" I question and Spencer nods. "Yeah." He says and we walk through and onto the plane.

Once we made it we go down and we see a huge crowd. I see Elena holding a sign. I run up to her and I hug her. "Hi." I say. "Hey." She says. I let go and Spencer catches up. "Oh Elena this is my co-worker and really close friend Spencer Reid." I say and Elena smiles. "Hi, Elena Neves." She says and Spencer smiles. "Hello." He says. "Where is everyone else?" I question. "Dom and Brian are getting groceries and Mia is taking care of Jack." Elena says and I smile. Spencer, Elena and I go to her car and she drives us to Mia and Brian's house. We made it here and we grab our luggage. "Just like I remembered." I say and we walk towards the door. I grab my key and I open it. "Mia!" Elena exclaims and I see Mia pop her head from the kitchen. "Lexie!" She exclaims and she hugs me. "We've missed you." She says. "I've missed you too. Oh and this is my friend Spencer Reid." I say and Mia smiles. "It's nice to meet you, don't worry Lexie tells us you don't shake hands or do germs so don't worry." Mia says and I smile. "Now where is my nieto, I have presents for him." I say and Mia chuckles. "Upstairs taking his nap. You can go be with him, we just want to have a chat with your friend." Mia says and I raise a brow at them then walk upstairs.

"So you're Spencer right?" Mia questions as she stands by the counter, in front of where Spencer was standing. "Yes, I am." He says getting a bit awkward. "Lexie tells us so much about you, even when she was 15 she would get all happy when talking about her team. I just want to thank you for helping her eyes light up again especially after Letty's passing." Mia says and Spencer smiles and nods. "No problem, it's awful seeing her so sad and shutdown like that." He says and Mia nods. They then hear footsteps coming from the stairs.


(Lexie POV)


I was holding Jack and I came back down the stairs. "Ready to see your presents?" I question Jack who giggles and claps. I smile and when we get back down the stairs I set him in the carpet and I sit criss-cross. "So what were you guys talking about when I left?" I question looking up at Mia, Elena, and Spencer. "Oh nothing much, just warning him of Dom." Mia says and I laugh. "Don't worry Reiders, he already likes you from what I've told him." I say and I see Spencer give a sigh of relief. "Look Jack, a charger. Way better than your Dad's Skyline." I say and Mia laughs wholeheartedly. "We're home." Dom says coming in and I smile. "Hey Dom, hey Brian." I say and I hug them both. "Hey Lexie...Whose this?" Dom questions. "Dom, this is my good friend Spencer Reid." I say and he nods. "Well it's nice to meet you." Dom says and he puts the groceries away with the help of Spencer and Brian. "You changing my kids mind?" Brian questions as he sees Jack playing with the charger. "Oh please his mind was never made up, he's a Toretto mind you." I say and Dom laughs. "She gets it." He says wrapping an arm around Elena. "But Lexie you need to know one thing." Dom says and I look over. "You're a Toretto too, you've always been one ever since you were 3." Dom says and I smile. "I also have this." I say bringing out a teddy bear. "Jack this is Beary, he was your Tia's when she was your age." I say handing him Beary, Jack smiles and giggles as he holds the bear close. 


"You still had Beary?" Mia questions and I nod. "I felt like if I got rid of him, Letty would be gone, but now that Beary is with Jack. Letty can meet her nephew." I say and Mia gives me a side hug as we watch Jack play with his new toys.

-Nightmare-


It was dark, cold, and empty. I looked around everywhere and all I could see was darkness. "Hello?" I question. "You left me." The voice of my sister says. I turn and I see her battered and bruised. "No Letty, I wouldn't and I could never." I say. "You left me for your stupid job! Family always comes first Alexis! Why can't you realize that?" Letty exclaims stepping closer to me. "Letty I-" I stop as I hear the screeching of tires and a gunshot which makes me jump. "That's why you never leave family behind." Letty says and she shoves me and I fall, and I keep falling.


-Nightmare Over-


I woke up with a start and I saw my light turn on and Spencer rushed to me. "Lex! Lex! Stay with me. Are you okay?" Spencer questions and I shake my head, sweat coming off of my forehead and tears running down my face. "Okay, Lex follow y breathing." He says and I try to calm down and I start following his breathing. "Good, now keep breathing." He says and I continue breathing in deeply. "That's it." Spencer says and I start crying remembering the dream. "What happened?" Spencer questions. "I had a dream. Where Letty was practically screaming at me it was my fault. That it was my fault she died." I say and Spencer hugs me. "It wasn't your fault. Her dying was never your fault." Spencer says and I see the silhouette of Mia. "What happened?" She questions as she sees Spencer hugging me as I cried. "Bad dream." Spencer says and Mia nods and walks off. I sit back in my bed and I rub my eyes. "It's all just hitting me at once. I didn't realize she was dead but now that I don't have anyone to call after cases or anyone to call on weekends and talk to, I just realized she's really gone." I say in a whisper. "Lex, look at me." Spencer says and I look up. "Letty may be gone, but you have your family and you have the team and I by your side." Spencer says and I hug him tightly. "Thanks Reiders." I say. "Night Lex." Spencer says. "Night Reiders." I say and Spencer turns off the lamp and leaves.


(The Next Morning)


I woke up feeling drained. It was still dark, I checked the time. 5:45. I shrugged and I got up and I got dressed in a light blue beach dress. I walked outside to the beach and I stood on the sand and watched the sky. The waves crashing and the wind blowing were the only sounds I heard. I then heard sand crunching and I saw Spencer. "Sometimes I forget that we both wake up way too early." I say and Spencer chuckles. "Can't get this type of view in Quantico." Spencer says looking out, I just ow noticed Spencer was wearing a purple short-sleeved button up and shorts. "Wow this is the first time I've ever seen you without a vest." I say and Spencer laughs mockingly. "Just for that." He says and he picks me up and throws me in the water. I gasp before I hit the water, I then come back up and I turn to Spencer. "Spencer!" I exclaim as he's laughing. I splash water at him and he gasps. "You're in for it now Alexis." He says and I laugh as he start kicking sand at me, I continue splashing him with water. He then comes to where I was which was in the water. I then shove him making him fall in the water, but he grabs my arm dragging me in along with him. I start laughing as I come up but Spencer isn't. "What?" I question wiping my eyes free of the salty water. Spencer then does the most unimaginable thing ever. 


He grabs my face and he kisses me. My eyes widen in shock but I then wrap my arms around his neck. After a few moments we break apart and I smile as we lean our foreheads against each other's. "Kissing in the ocean soaking wet. How cheesy." I say and Spencer chuckles. "And considering in the sunrise too." Spencer says and I turn towards the ocean and I see the sun slowly rising and I start laughing along with Spencer. Spencer then gets up and he helps me up. "Wanna go inside?" I question and Spencer nods. Once we get inside I see Mia holding Jack with a smirk on her face. "You are so lucky Dom and Brian were not awake." Mia says and I giggle. "Snitches get stitches Mia." I say and I go upstairs, but not before kissing Spencer's cheek. I gather some clothes, a black tank top, blue jean shorts, a new bra and underwear. I grab a towel and I go take a shower. I let the hot water run down my back as I think. After a while I get out and I get dressed. I put my hair up in a ponytail and I walk back downstairs. "Morning everyone." I say to them as Elena hands me a mug of coffee. I take a sip and I smile realizing it was just the way I liked it. "Let me do Spencer's, it's like diabetes in a cup." I say and Elena chuckles handing me the coffee pot and I pour it in a mug. I grab the sugar container and I start pouring the sugar in little by little. Eventually I noticed Spencer come down and I handed him his mug. I discreetly sent him a wink and I walked over and stood next to Mia as we watched Jack play with Brian. 


"You think you'll ever find anyone like that?" Mia questions and I look over at Spencer who is engaged in conversation with Dom as Dom smiles while listening to him ramble and Spencer is smiling while rambling. "I think I did."
