Chapter One

The team re-entered the BAU section, with Hotch and Rossi heading to their offices and the other three that returned lingering in the bullpen and dropping in to their chairs and sighing with relief to be back in Quantico, away from the horrors of the previous case. JJ came down to the spare desk and sat opposite Morgan, With Prentiss in front of him. Garcia came to see them from her lair and hugged all three of them. "Cheer up you guys! We saved all of those children from that creep and possibly more in the future!" They all knew she was right, it just got a little difficult sometimes, seeing the worst in the world happen to the innocent minds of children. "We know Mama, it still hard to see what people can do sometimes." Garcia realised this after looking to the girls as they nodded. "Well tonight, we should go out and celebrate! Have fun while we aren't on a case!" JJ stood up to agree with the idea. "sounds like a plan! I'll call Will and tell him I'll be late home." With that JJ left towards the restrooms and Garcia turned onto Prentiss who smiled and agreed to come along.

With two of them on board, Garcia turned to the all too quite Derek Morgan. Moving to stand behind Morgan and squeezing his shoulders Garcia leaned over so their cheeks were against each others. "What about you my Chocolate thunder?" giving another squeeze, and steeping back to her original position. Shaking his head and leaning back in his chair Morgan replied. "Sorry Baby Girl, not tonight. I've got a date." This time Prentiss spoke up. "Again? Is it the same girl as the last few times you blew us off?" Rising and picking up his go bag Morgan chuckled as he walked towards the door. "Sort of, see you guys tomorrow!" the only answer they got.

As he cut the engine in his truck Morgan felt as light and happy as he did the first time he pulled in to this car complex. Calming himself quickly with a few deep breaths, Morgan reached to the passenger seat to grab his bag before opening his car door and locking the vehicle behind him. He practically leaped up the three flights of stairs to his desired destination. Knocking lightly on the door to alert the occupant of his presence. A small man with short spiked up hair, dorky glasses, in an obviously oversized sweatshirt and baggy sweatpants opened to dark ak door and his hazel eyes brightened at the sight of the muscular agent, standing in his door way. "Derek!" the younger man's voice practically breaking as he spoke. "I-I thought t-that you were on a case?" his brow scrunching together showing his confusion. "Well, I can always go to my place." The darker man replied lightly. Opening the door fully and gesturing for him to enter. As Morgan stepped into the apartment the very pale skinny man closed the door by pushing the strong man back against it. His arms wrapping around the older man's neck and pulling his head down slightly, pressing their lips together firmly and taking away both of their breaths. Lifting his head Derek pulled away from the soft plump lips and rested his head against the door, his go-bag dropped on the floor. "I missed you Spencer, I always do." He said pulling his head from the door and pulling the younger man into an enormous embrace. "I missed you too, Derek" came the soft, Whisper like reply.

The two men stood hugging in the hallway for what felt like minutes, happy, before untangling. Looking at his watch Derek realised that they had in fact stood there for 2 hours. "Jesus, kid!" Morgan breathed out. "It's 12!"At that both men suddenly felt extremely tired. Derek bent down to pick up his bag and turned for the door when a pale hand stopped him. "You don't have to go. You can stay here if you want to." His lover's voice was shy and a blush was creeping up his checks. Strong arms wrapped around Spencer's slim waist as Morgan pushed his lips down onto the slightly puffy ones. Pulling away almost as sudden as the initial kiss. "Sounds good to me Spence." Unravelling himself from the toned arms and gripping strongly on to one wrist, Derek got dragged down to Spencer's bedroom and pushed on to the bed. Before being joined on the bed, Derek watched as Spencer walk round shutting all the lights off in the apartment, leaving on one small light at the end of the hall. Chuckling lightly as Spencer returned Derek patted the bed next to him where he had gotten all comfortable. As the two me lay there happily wrapped in on another's arms, Derek kissed the top of his brunette boyfriends head and started to make small conversation until the two would fall asleep. "The girls wanted me to go out with them tonight. I said i had a date and Prentiss asked if it was the same girl as before." Feeling the lithe man shuffle he looked in to his beautiful hazel doe eyes. "Why didn't you go out with them? Do they not know I'm a guy? Do you say I was a girl?" Pulling his lover closer to his chest and inhaling his scent before replying "I would rather spend the night here with you, like this. It's more fun to not tell the girls anything about who I date they really think it's annoying if they don't know anything about them." Sighing lightly and settled closer into Derek's strong chest. The two easily fell asleep, cuddled up close together.

When morning came Derek woke up late and rushed to get ready for work, showering in the unfamiliar bathroom, which he loved to be in, walking back through the love of his life apartment, up to the front door. Go-bag slung over his shoulder. "See you later Spence, I got to go to work! I'll ring you later." Before he left he felt a light hand on his shoulder turning him around, ghosting hot lips against his slightly parted lips, drawing him into a glorious good bye kiss. "talk to you later Derek." Finishing with a firm kiss on the check before playfully nudging his partner out of the door, shutting it and going back to the bedroom. Seeing Morgan's Credentials and phone on the desk, that sat in the corner.
