Reid frowned when Rossi touched his stitches, but that was his only reaction.
"I don't understand."
That couldn't mean what it sounded like, clearly. Rossi was right: Reid didn't contemplate the possibility of being loved like that very often, if ever. I didn't even recognize it when he felt that way about others because he had conditioned himself to never hope for romance. After all, he was a socially awkward genius who rambled about any given topic and profiled serial killers for a living. There wasn't much desirable there. Obviously, Rossi was just not articulating himself well (which was odd in and of itself, but hey, the man had just gotten out of the hospital) and he meant something else.
((OOC: I'm really liking the one with Rossi's family. :3 ))
