Criminal Moons [blakkatt07 & Krystal_Atems_Girl]

Her face lit up at Aaron's suggestion. "I love it. A way to close the circle so to speak."

Spencer smiled. "That's all I ask for."
 
Serenity smiled and moved to embrace him. "Guess I need to see about getting a replica of my gown made. There is no way I'm going to try to pull it with the crystal for the wedding."

Spencer chuckled. "Thought we were going to the planetarium?"
 
Serenity giggled. "She probably would. And I know it would take almost nothing for her to do it, but I'd rather her keep her energy. She'll need it as much as possible." She shrugs. "But I can't hold her to that really when I know I probably won't save my own energy either."

Spencer chuckled. "And I was gonna blame it on Sere and Aaron distracting us."
 
Serenity kissed his cheek. "Well, that's at least some of the details out of the way." She sighed and bit her lip as if she wanted to ask something but was hesitating.

As soon as Spencer and Krystal arrived at the planetarium, they were ambushed by paparazzi and reporters. The reporters all calling out "Doctor Reid!" Trying to get his attention.
 
Serenity bit her lip a little harder. "Well...um....I was thinking, since I apparently have this special profiling ability....that maybe I could try to get into the BAU...after the twins are born of course. But...I'm a bit concerned about what you and the others would think about it."

One reporter looked at Krystal smugly. "Krystal. Should've known you'd be so ruthless and uncaring."

Spencer frowned. "What are you talking about?" He glared at the reporters. "She's done nothing wrong."

Another reporter spoke up. "Of course you'd defend her. Betraying the darling lady that you did. After she did her best to keep you out the spotlight after you saved her from her stalker."

"Wait...what?" Spencer thought for a moment and then his eyes widened. "Lila." He growled as he scanned the scene behind the press for the actress.
 
"Well of course Krys likely had the same idea. For her, it makes sense. And lets face it, none of you really would've tried to stop her or talk her out of it." She sighed. "I'm supposed to be the more peaceful one and such, remember? It would've been more likely for me to hang with Penelope whenever you all went away." Serenity smiled. "But you'll really be okay with me joining the BAU?"

Spencer wrapped his arm tight around Krystal's weight and kissed her forehead. "Seems Lila has told the press I'm cheating on her with you." He murmured in his native tongue so only she could hear. "And they ate it up considering the last time I was in eye of the celebrity press, it was at the end of her case just before leaving L.A. for Quantico and the tabloids called me her mystery man."
 
Serenity tilted her head, still not quite convinced. "Are you sure, Lightning? Even with my profiling ability, what if something goes wrong and I can't prevent myself from attempting to kill an unsub?" She started pacing. "What if Strauss wasn't just a one time thing? What if I start judging every unsub as being unworthy to live any longer?" It was obvious that she was overthinking and was starting to panic as a result. "What...what if there comes a time where it's just me against an unsub and the rest of the team isn't quick enough to catch up and I just kill the unsub rather than letting them face justice no matter what the crime?"

"Don't have to tell me twice." Spencer snorted. "Play along and let me handle them." He spoke still in his native tongue as his eyes continued to scan a little longer for Lila in the crowd, unable to find her. He sighed and turned back to the press, clearing his throat. "I'm afraid, ladies and gentlemen, that your sources are mistaken. Lila and I were never an item. In fact, she strung me along during that case in attempts to get me to be lenient with her against the better judgement of my team." Spencer purposely let his voice break and even closed his eyes as if it was painful to even speak. "Not once afterward, did she try to contact me nor return my attempts to keep in touch. So I sat heartbroken and continued my job at the FBI, doing my best to hold together the pieces."
 
Serenity looked away as he kissed her hands, blinking her eyes as if to keep from crying. "Can you blame me, Aaron? In a matter of days, I've killed twice! And liked it! Twice, I considered killing Endymion, and the biggest thing stopping me both times was you. We both know I still could've let Strauss live. That if she'd confronted us a few days sooner, I would've. And would've made it clear to everyone else that she was to live. And you all would've listened. Or I could've easily let Krys kill her. I never expected that I would actually enjoy killing like Krys does. It's why I'm afraid something could go wrong."

The press were eating up the sad tale Spencer was spinning as he continued with a tale that spoke of meeting Krys in a more romantic situation and how she'd helped him piece his heart back together and they were now engaged. "So, that's the tale of it." He lovingly kissed Krys' head again. "I'm happily in love and excited for mine and Krystal's wedding. I would now appreciate it if we could be left in peace until we're ready to make any other formal announcements ourselves." The reporters nodded as they finished taking notes and the photographers snapped a couple more pics of the happy couple before dispersing.

"Glad that's over." Spencer sighed. "I'm sorry Krys. I didn't mean for her to drag you into this."
 
Aaron nods. "I understand your fears my love, but I know you. Even if you have garnered a taste for violence like your sister, you are much more calm and level headed about it. The difference between you and her is that krys kills because she can. You do it to protect those you love."

Krystal shook her head. "Don't worry about it my knight. She was just being jealous because she knew she stood no chance anymore. Besides, I'm used to the press. It's not a big deal." She reassures.
 
Serenity sniffled a bit. "Just...just promise me something, will you?"

Spencer shook his head with a smile. "I know you're used to the press. But you have a whole business that relies on any press you get being good press. I would've hated to see that business hurt by something so small and petty and yes it would've been affected."
 
Serenity took a deep breath. "Just promise me that you and Inky and Derek and Spencer will stop me if I seem like I'm starting to lean too much to being like Krys with my kills. I know I'm asking a lot, asking you to promise on their behalfs too...but I know you'll explain it to them. Because let's face it, it might not always be you at my side in the field but it might be one of them."

Spencer kisses her back. "You're welcome, love. "
 
Serenity sighed in relief. "Thanks Aaron." She kissed him before pulling back and covering her mouth as a yawn escaped her. "Mmm...I think I wore myself out with the panic." She chuckled sheepishly.

Spencer nodded. "Definitely. I'm sure I can come up with plenty of rants to make up for that spectacle." He smiled and intertwined their fingers before walking inside.
 
Another yawn escaped Serenity. "Don't have to tell me twice. I don't expect you to join me if you'd rather go do something on your own." She smiled and started to head back to the bedroom.

Spencer chuckled, and true to his word, it hadn't taken him long before he was starting on his well known rants about Earth's tech.
