Thanks so much for commenting on each bit -- that was awesome. And thanks so much for the compliments. I'm thrilled you like it.
I think that Jessica has known Aaron a REALLY long time, and probably has insight into him that Haley was missing (because Jess is a bit more removed from the immediate emotional situation of their marriage). I also have a feeling that Jack was talking about Reid, a lot, and that would make her curious.
I didn't want to get into the whole team dynamic in this fic (it was already the never-ending Fic of Doom), but I actually have two, not totally formed ideas as to how they find out. The first is that something happens to Aaron and they wonder why Spencer was with him. The second is that the happy couple nervously invites the team over for dinner to tell them, and it ends up in a bickering match between JJ and Rossi as to which of them won the betting pool as to when Hotch and Reid started their relationship (JJ bet before Haley's death, Rossi several months after it -- and they're both pretty much right). Maybe I'll write that someday. I actually have an idea for a future case fic that could take place after the team finds out. Oh dear, I think I'm going to be writing CM fics for a while now...
