Disclaimer: I do not own Criminal Minds or their characters..... I do own every other character, at least I guess. People like The Dever's and The Beridge's. Yeah. Their mine. Also I do not own any songs I may use in this process, or book titles. Just to be on the safe side.=)

Do you know the difference between education and experience?
Education is when you read the fine print;
experience is what you get when you don't.

"Devon!" A burgendy haired girl who was about fifteen in age called out. She looked like she was about Five foot, two inches tall, maybe five foot, three. "Give me that back!" She triedto grab for the book in the boy's hand. He held it up. As she jumped to reach it, he broke out in a run.
"You've got to come and catch it Holly!" The boy she was chasing yelled. He was about sixteen in age and about six feet tall, maybe five foot, nine inches. Holly came up behind him and jumped on his back. he started wildly waving his hand towards his back to get her off.
"I'm not letting go Devon. Give me my book!" Holly yelled holding on tight.
"Fine take it!"Devon said as he threw the book. She ran for it and as she grabbed it, she ended up rolling down the hill to the front of her house. Devon chased after her and she pulled on his ankle as she fell. He fell and followed her down the hill. He ended up on top of her when they hit the bottom.
"Hello up there." Holly said looking at Devon.
"Did I ever tell you that you're beautiful?" He asked as he brought his neck down to kiss her.
"Oh once or twice." she said playfully after they broke apart. Devon looked up. His brown hair falling in his eyes.
"What's that?" He said getting off her and pointing to a white envelope on the ground. He pushed some hair out of his face.
"I- I don't know." She said getting up herself and going over to it. Her name and address were writing sloppily on it. She looked at him as she opened it and the playful grinn that was on her face dissappeared.
"What?" He sid going over to her. "What?!" he asked again when she didn't answer. He walked over and read the note over her shoulder. They looked at each other in pure terror and ran inside Holly's house.

"Two Day ago," JJ started in the confrence room. Everyone looked over the case files. JJ hit a button on her remote and a picture of a girl who looked like the girl who was with her boyfriend eariler but with brown hair came on screen. Underneith the picture it said the girl's name."Holly Dever of Connecticut was out in her yard with her boyfriend when she found a note threating her and her boyfriend. She then called her father and left this message." JJ hit the play button.
"Hey Dad," The girl's voice said. "It's me, Holly. Uh Devon and I were outside and I found another letter. You said to call you if I did find another one. Well I'm calling. I don't know what you want to do now. The both of us are inside now. Give me a call back. Byee." The message ended.
"So why are we getting the case?" Morgan asked.
"The police decided that this is getting out of hand. THis isn't the first note she's gotten." JJ answered
"What number letter is it then?" Hotchner asked.
"This is the sixth one in the past two weeks."
"And they're calling us in now?" Prentiss asked.
"This recent one had a threat in it." JJ said pulling up a note on the screen. "It says that if he ever interferes again, he will slit his throat."
"A bit brutal, Don't you think?" Rossi asked.
"If he thinks that this girl feels the same way about him but just doesn't know it yet," Reid said. "Then he'll stop at nothing to get what he wants. And if it's that girl then....."
"How old is she?" Hotchner asked.
"Uh" JJ said looking through some papers. "Fifteen. Her boyfriend, Devon Beridge, is sixteen."
"Well," Rossi said standing. "Let's not keep this poor family waiting." And they all filed out towards the plane.

He watched the girl read the note. The look of terror on the boy's face when he read it filled him with delight. He did what he aimed to do. He was scaring off the boy. Soon she'll realize that she wasn't supposed to be with that boy, but with him. Soon they would be together, as they were meant to in his mind. He thought about the future they would share and felt himself grow. He realized that these feeling couldn't be hidden for forever. He had to act soon. He had to remind himself quickly that patience was the key to all success. He got up and left the spot he was crouched in, waiting and decideing when to make his next move.
