Reid tossed uncomfortably in his sleep.
At exactly 5:07:18 in the morning, he jerks awake.
He hasn't been able to sleep for more than 1 hour 3 minutes and 17 seconds after – well, after what happened.
He sits up and reaches for his phone. Instinctively, he dials JJ's number, but he hangs up almost immediately. He flips through his contacts and calls Blake instead.
Safe to say, he hasn't talked to JJ for a while.
He didn't know whether it was his fault or hers, but he knew each and every event that led up to their invisible, unspoken, 'cold war'. He felt bad for it, of course he did, it was JJ, but at the same time, he wasn't able to figure out why he had been so angry with JJ, or why JJ had been so angry with him.
"Reid? Is there a case?" Blake says, sounding like she just woke up.
He swallows. He feels like he's bothering her. He never felt like he was a nuisance to JJ, but probably because she was always so nice about it.
"Uh, no. I just…it's nothing, really."
"You can't sleep?" Blake asks, because it doesn't take an IQ of 187 to figure that out. Reid pauses, wondering if he should bore her with his troubles.
"No. I just butt-dialed you." It's a wonder how dumb his excuses can get, especially for a genius.
"Hah. Okay. Try not to leave your phone in your bed when you're sleeping," Blake says, and then she hangs up.
If it were JJ, Reid thought, she would have known I was lying. He suspected that Blake knew too, but was probably too tired to care. After all, they had just flown in four hours and 15 minutes ago.
Surprisingly, his phone buzzes in his hand.
"Spence, did you call?"
Spence.
He can't stop himself from smiling, because he liked the way she said his name.
"It was an accident."
"Yeah, I'm sure you were planning to call Blake." JJ replies, too quickly, her words sharp, harsh and she wasn't hiding her bitterness either.
"JayJay," Reid says, begging, almost.
"Go back to sleep, Spence."
And then JJ hangs up.
Reid settles back into his bed, looks at the clock.
5:12:16.
He pops two little pills and eases himself back into sleep.
On the other side of town, JJ wakes up.
"Hey, what's up?" Will whispers into her ear.
"I can't sleep," JJ says, kissing his forehead, "I'm going to watch T.V."
Will nods and falls back into sleep.
JJ climbs out of bed and turns on the T.V.
Her eyes move with the pictures on the screen, but she's not really watching.
She plays with the wedding ring on her finger. She was more than happy with Will, but things with Spence didn't seem the same after the wedding.
She knew Spence didn't like her in that way.
So what the hell happened?
