chapter9

Derek opened the house door. "Spencer?"

No answer.

"Spence?"

Derek walked into the kitchen. The oven was on and he could smell whatever was cooking. He walked up to the oven and peak inside. It seemed Spencer was baking fish.

Derek smiled.

Then he turned and walked toward the stairs. As he got more closer to the top of the stairs, Derek could hear the radio on and... singing?

"Gina works the diner all day Working for her man she brings home her pay for love For love She's says we gota hold on to what we've got, it doesn't make a difference if we make it or not We got each other and thats alot for love We'll give it a shot Wo-oo we're half way there Wo-oo livin on a prayer Take my hand we'll make it I swear Wo-oo livin on a prayer"

Derek covered his mouth and silently laughed at hearing Spencer singing in the shower. The boy was singing 'very' loudy and Derek couldn't belive he didn't hear that from outside.

Or got calls from the neighbors

"Gina dreams of running away She cries in the night Tommy whispers, baby it's ok Some day

We gotta hold on to what we've got It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not We've got each other...

Derek leaned against the wall when he heard water move. He could tell that Spencer was getting out of the tub by the swooshing sounds.

Then the door opened.

"Wo-oo we're half way there, Woo- AH!" Spencer stopped singing and jumped when he saw Derek standing there.

The boy brought both his hands to his mouth.

Derek chuckled. Then he stared at Spencers wet body up and down. "Nice robe."

Spencer stared down at his body. "You said I could use anything from your closet. So..."

"It's fine. A little big. But..."

Spencer smiled. "I thought you said you'd be home at seven?" He breathed. "Dinner isn't ready."

"Thats ok." Derek said. "As long as you were having fun. I don't mind. It's great to see you express yourself freely. Especialy after only two days with me."

Spencer smiled again. "I should check on dinner." He began to move forward.

"It's ok. You don't have to. I'll do it." Derek turned to leave.

Spencer still smiled. "I'm not doing it cause I have to."

Derek turned back.

"I want to do it. For you."

Dereks brows raised as the boy walked passed him. The man smiled as he watched the boy walk downstairs.

XOXOXOXOXO

Derek walked into the kitchen and found Spencer leaning over the oven. The agent walked over to Spencer, and grabbed the huge fork Spencer was using to flip the fish.

Spencer turned to him.

"We can do it together, Spence."

Spencer smiled. The boy leaned back up and let Derek do the rest. He couldn't help but smile at Derek from behind.

When the agent leaned back up, he turned to Spencer. "See? I can cook too."

Spencer smiled bigger. He couldn't take his eyes off the dark man.

"Oh. I just remembered." Spencer turned and ran all the way back upstairs.

Derek stared confused. Then the door bell rang. He went to open it.

When Derek opened the door, he quickly brought his finger to his lips.

"Why, is he sleeping?" Prentiss asked.

Derek shook his head. "He's very much... alive."

He moved out of the way to let the women in. "I have to say, i'm hurt." Derek joked.

"Why?" JJ asked.

"I've never had this many woman come here for me."

"And you never will." Prentiss said.

"Master! I found this when I... was... cleaning." The boy stopped in his tracks and stared at each woman.

"Spencer. These are-" The agent was caught of gaurd when the boy dropped what he held, then turned and ran back upstairs. "Spencer?"
The dark agent turned to his guests. "I'll be right back." He bend down, grabbed what spencer dropped and followed the boy.

XOXOXOXOXOXO

Derek looked in Spencers room first. The boy wasn't there. Then he checked in his own room. Yup, thats where the boy was. Laying on Dereks bed.

"Spencer?"

He heard a sniffle. His brows narrowed. He saw Spencers body shaking on the bed. But not a cold or scared shaking. It was a sobbing shaking.

"Spencer? Are you ok?"

The boy wiped his face with the robe he wore. "Yes."

Derek sat next to him on the bed and gently brought the back of his hand to Spencers cheek. "Then why are you crying?"

The boy shook his head.

"Come on. Tell me."

Spencer turned to the man. "Do you love them?"

"Who? The girls?"

Spencer nodded.

"Yeah." Derek said.

Spencer grabbed on tightly to the pillow he was holding and lay his head back down. "They're not sharing our bed." He stated. "I don't care if it's big enough."

Derek couldn't help a small chuckle. "Spence, are you... jealous?"

"No." He answered quickly. Too quickly.

"Yes you are." Derek chuckled again. "Baby, look at me."

Spencers eyes trailed to the dark man.

"Yes. I love them. But not like that. They're more like really close family."

"Really?"

"Trust me."

Spencer leaned forward and raised himself on the bed. "Then why are they here?"

"They're here for you. They wanted to meet you." Derek chuckled. "You ran out so quick, you didn't give me a chance to introduce them. They're my team, Spencer."

Spencer stood stiff. Wow, he just made a complete idiot of himself.

Derek smiled and brought out what Spencer had dropped downstairs.

Spencers eyes trailed to the small bag. "I found all of it." He said low. "When I was cleaning."

"Then you can keep it." The agent put the small bag of change in Spencers hand.

Spencer held on tight to Dereks hand when they touched. He looked back up at the mans eyes. Spencer scooted closer and closer until their faces were an inch apart. Then he planted a gentle kiss on the agents lips. Then pulled back an inch. He glanced down at Dereks lips, then his eyes.

Spencer was going to pull back, but Derek brought him back for another kiss.

Derek couldn't stop himself. When he felt those soft lips on his, he lost it. When he saw Spencer pulling away, he really lost it. He had to have another kiss. So he grabbed onto the boys hand and pulled him close, bringing their lips together again.

He brought his hand behind Spencers neck and deepend the kiss.

When their breathing became heavy and Spencer was getting a little too excited 'and' Dereks hands started moving over his bare thigh, Spencer pulled away.

"I have dinner in the oven." He breathed.

"Let it burn." Derek breathed back and inhaled the next kiss he sent Spencers way.

Spencer smiled into the kiss and pulled back again.

Dereks lips found his neck and Spencer couldn't help a small moan that escaped his mouth.

"You have guests." He breathed.

Derek pulled away and took a deep breath. "You're right." He rubbed his face and stood up and straightend his shirt. "Put on some clothes and meet us downstairs."

Spencer just took a deep breath and nodded. Then he watched as the dark agent left.

Spencer threw himself backwards onto the bed and laughed as he stared at the ceiling.

Review please :)
