This is a christmas story with my characters form A Friend Of A Friend. I hope you enjoy and there will be one more as well.

As Always. I don't own any one from Criminal Minds. But I do hold ownership to Danielle Connor and her sibblings and friends and family

Children, sleeping. Snow is softly falling. Dreams are calling. Like bells in the distance. We were Dreamers not so long ago. But one by one we all had to grow up.

When it seems that ew have lost our way, we find it once again on Christmas day.

Spencer Reid and Danielle Connor, his brunette girlfriend with bright brown eyes, walked into her huge, three story house at night. The first floor consists of all the basics; a livingroom, sitting room, library, kitchen, two office/studies, a bathroom. The second floor had all the bedrooms and the thrid floor was a ballroom. Her house had been built back in the 1800's and that was typical.

"Oh jeez!" She said with a shiver as she closed her front door. "It's freezing in here." She pulled her winter jacket closer. It was a week before Christmas and it was snowing heavily outside.

"I though you turned the heat on low before we left so the house would warm up a bit?" Reid asked her.

"I did!" She defended. "Why don't you start a fire and I'll just check out the upstairs for a leaky window or something."

"Sure." he said. He waked over into the livingroom. He stripped off his coat and went to the fireplace and started one up. Just as he put the gate up, he heard Danielle scream. "Danny?" He said runnig up the stairs He ran to the third floor, where he had heard the scream. As soon as he rounded the corner of the stairs, She chrashed into him, plowing her head into his chest. "Danny? What's the matter?" She shook her head in his chest pulling on his shirt. "What?" He pulled her off and looked at her in eyes. "Danny, tell me."

"It's terrible!" She wailed. "Some one came in and distroyed the ballroom!" She plowed herself into his chest again. He pulled himself off again and held her hand as he opened the doors to the ballroom and saw what happened. The tree was distroyed and the tile on the floor was ripped up and wallpaper was pulled down. The windows were smashed, the french doors were pulled off their hinges and ripped out of the walls. The stage was gutted and the chandelier was ripped straight from the ceiling and broken on the floor. The decorations hung in sheards against the walkls and on the floor. He closed the door as he stepped out.

"Lets go down to the fire place before the place burns town totally." He said and she nodded into his chest. He pulled her back down the stairs.

The BAU team sat in the break room eating lunch. Well everybody except Reid and Penelope Garcia. Dave Rossi and Aaron Hotcher were in a coversation. Emily Prentiss, Derek Morgan and Jernnifer Jareau, or known as JJ, were having there own. While Rossi's and Hotch's conversation was about business and more serious, the others, on the other hand, were talking about Reid and Danielle.

"You know we might be hearing wedding bells soon." Morgan said stuffing almost half his samwich in his mouth at once.

"Hey." Prentiss said putting a chip in her mouth. "You never know. Reid never really talks about her."

"He talks to Garcia about her." JJ said taking a sip of her soda. "But then again, Danielle is Garcia's best friend."

"Yeah. But at least he's happy." Prentiss said.

"As long as it stay like that I-" Morgan started but paused as he watched Garcia rummage through Reid's desk. "Hey Baby Girl!" He called as she walked by the Breakroom. She stopped and looked in.

"Yeah?" She asked leaning in the doorway.

"Do you know what's going on between Reid and Danielle?" Prentiss asked.

"Yeah." Garcia said taking a seat across from Morgan and next to Prentiss and JJ. "Well, Apparently, when Danny and Reid came home last night, it was extremely cold and Danny went to check it out and found her ballroom destroyed. So she's freaking out."

"Why?" Prentiss asked.

"Because This Friday is her annual Christmas party."

"Do they need any help?" hotch asked

"Tons. Look." Garcia said handing him a two page list in her neat writing. "That's it all. They said it was terrible. The stage was gutted and the doors ripped off and it was-"she stopped and shook her head. Hotch handed the list to Rossi.

"I think we're going to need to take some vacation time to help them." He said handing the list back to Garcia.

"You guys want to help?" She asked, eyes wide.

"Of course." Morgan said. "You know where she lives?"

"She's my best friend. Of course I do." she said with a twinkle in her eye.

Ok. Random idea I had. I hope this works. Please let me know and Review.
