Nice story, but I want to mention a couple of grammatical errors. When Reid said “he left my mom and I” it should say “he left my mom and me”. Likewise, when Hotch said “join Jack and I for dinner” it should be “join Jack and me”. This is a common grammatical error, but the trick is to pretend the other person isn’t part of the statement, as in “he left me” or”join me for dinner”. That way, you’ll always get it right! Thanks for sharing your story. It showed a fatherly affection of Hotch toward Reid that was quite nice.

Very touching.

Hello all well. I loved your story. Beautiful. I hope you have more.

This was really sweet, hotch and reid always had a good bond but the show cut it out a few seasons before Thomas left

Great story :)

THAT IS THE CUTEST FREAKING THING PARDON ME WHILE I GO DIE OVER HERE OMG THANK YOU FOR THIS

That was amazing, wow!

This had me outrageously fangirling so many times. Love it!

a really great story! thank you for sharing!

This is absolutely adorable! The way you describe the physicality of the team is truly indicative of their characters and very well done, and you capture Hotch and Reid's voices very well!

your faithful reader,

V.S.

Nice characterization.

cute :) Thank you

Damn good story, and one I found by accident!

Nice little oneshot. I like Reid n Hotch (not slash). One of my fav scenes is Revelations when Reid hugs Hotch. But anyway, nice little story.

So cute - Glad Reid has a father in his life who cares for him!
