Past Mpreg
"Papa. Why are we here?"
"I'm...I'm going to introduce you to someone, Aramis."
"Who, Papa?"
"Your father."

A knock at the door caused the two occupants spin their heads to the door. One reached for their gun and the other for their tablet, which showed their security feed.
"Alec." The one with the tablet called out to his companion.
"What, Ellery?" Alec hissed in reply.
"It's Reid." Ellery explained. Alec walked towards the door and opened it.
"Alec." The person at the door stated, nodding slightly.
"Spencer. What are you doing here?" Alec asked, moving back slightly to allow Reid to come in.
"I...I would like you to meet someone."
"O-kay?"
"Alec, Q. Meet Aramis Trevelyan Reid, my son." Reid acknowledged Q and introduced the young boy currently holding his hand. "Alec. He's yours."
"I...I have a son?" Alec whispered in shock.
"I would have introduced him to you sooner but... but there were a few complications."
"What? What complications could have possibly meant that I didn't know I had a son?!" Alec asked in anger.
"My...My cancer." Reid said, looking down at his son and biting the inside of his lip.
"Your...Your cancer?" Alec looked at Spencer in shock and Q came and wrapped an arm around him.
"What is it?" Q asked, looking at Reid.
"It was lung cancer but I was in remission for 9 months. But I have a brain tumour. Malignant."
"How long..." Alec asked, tears in his eyes.
"3 months. I found out about 2 weeks ago."
"And Aramis..."
"I was hoping... he would stay with you. He knows that I'm sick and I can't get better but nothing else."
Now this has a number of possible endings:
- Q, Alec and Spencer all get together and Reid beats his cancer.
- Spencer and Alec have shared custody and Reid again beats cancer.
- The three get together but Reid loses the battle
- Reid dies of the tumour and Alec and Q adopt Aramis
