I do not own Harry Potter or Criminal Minds.


The next week found Hermione wishing herself a pepper-up potion. She was doing her 6 month review and there was a lot of paperwork that needed to be done as well as a meeting with Hotch to discuss her progress.

She had already had her meeting and was now doing the mountain of paperwork that needed to be filled out. She finally finished and as she moved the last page away from her workspace she let her head drop to the desk and she let out a groan.

Morgan just walked in the door and looked at Penelope who was standing by Emily's desk.

"Baby girl, what's going on with Hermione?"

"6 month review." She told him in a whisper. Hermione was in a mood today having to deal with all that paperwork. However it looked like she was done.

"Hermione!" Morgan said as he made his way over to her desk. "Did you just go through the fun little thing we like to call a 6 month review?"

Hermione lifted her head from her desk and looked at him. "Fun? I would rather do the physical portion of the academy again then that mess of bureaucratic paperwork."

Morgan laughed. "Well now that you are done why don't we all go out to celebrate you being here for 6 months?"

"And just where were you planning on going to?" Hermione asked as she raised her eyebrows and stared at him.

"Surambas. A few drinks and some salsa and you will be feeling better in no time" Morgan said as he named a Latin bar close to the office that he knew she liked.

"That does sound lovely and I could really use a margarita after all that writing. I have not written that much since I was in school."

"Great" Morgan said as he turned to the rest of the team "Who is all in?"

"I will go. Will is picking up Henry from the sitters and going to have a father son night. I have no idea what that means nor do I want to" J.J said

"Sure why not. Maybe I will find a cute man there." Said Emily

"Oh my love do you even have to ask? Kevin is working late on some IT project so I have the night free." Garcia spoke with a smile

Morgan turned to Spencer "What about you pretty boy? You going to come celebrate our girl completing her 6 month review?"

Spencer looked at Morgan. He really did not like places where dancing was involved. He always ended up looking like a fish. "I don't know there was this new documentary coming on tonight…" the end of his sentence trailed off.

"Oh please Spencer. Don't leave us to the mercy of being alone with Morgan all night. Come out with us please?" Hermione said looking at Spencer her eyes pleading full of mirth.

The others looked at each other and held in their laughter. They all knew what Hermione was doing.

"Umm sure I guess I can go." Spencer said clearly flustered by Hermione.

"Great! Then if everyone is ready I am done with that mountain, I just have to hand it to Hotch and then we can go." Hermione said with a smile on her face.


By the time the group made it through their first round of drinks Hermione was feeling better.

"Okay next round is on me" she said standing up to walk to the bar.

"We'll go with you" Said J.J indicating herself and the other 2 women at the table.

"Alright"

As the women waited for their drinks to come up Emily turned to Hermione.

"So what was all that 'Oh please Spencer come out with us' you pulled at the office?" she said as she laughed raising her voice to mimic Hermione's.

Hermione laughed "Well I really did want to have everyone here. It seems like forever since we.."

Hermione never got to finish her sentence because a voice from behind her said "Hermy-own-ninny is vat you?"

Hermione turned around at the deep accented voice that she had not heard in years.

"VIKTOR!" She she cried the look of surprise clear on her face. "Oh my goodness, what are you doing here? Is Tatia here?"

She gave him a quick hug and a kiss on each cheek.

"Yes she is. I am here for vork. You hear I am vritting a sports column in Bulgaria."

"Yes Fleur told me last time I spoke to her. That is so great. I am so proud of you."

"Um Hermione" J.J said from behind Hermione. "Who is this?"

Hermione turned around and saw all the women had their eyes as big a saucers. Penelope's jaw was even slightly opened at the sight of the Bulgarian in front of them.

"Oh sorry. Guys this is Viktor Krum. Viktor these are my coworkers Emily Prentiss, Penelope Garcia, and Jennifer Jarreau also known as JJ. I have known Viktor since I was a girl." Hermione said as she introduced her friends to her ex.

"Now Hermy-own-ninny you are not vat old yet. You still vook vike the same beautiful creature vat swept me avay when you vere in school. Perhaps though even more gorgeous. Hermy-own-ninny here vas my first love vhen I was a boy. She broke my heart. But I have found my true soul mate in my vonderful vife Tatia."

JJ, Emily and Penelope were all stunned. This handsome man was openly flirting with their friend who seemed to just blow it off as she said "Oh Viktor you are incorrigible. Does Tatia know how terrible you are?"

"Yes she does. She vas the one who told me to come see if you would dance with me my malko tsvete. She does not like to dance vith me. Not many do. Only vone person has ever been able to do so. Vould you do me the honor of vhis dance?"

Hermione looked at her friends who were still in shock. "Can you guys get the drinks and explain to the boys I will be back after I get rid of the Bulgarian toerag here?"

"Oh you vound me malko tsvete"

"You will live Viktor" Hermione said with a smile.

"Yeah sure go ahead we can handle it." Emily said as she was the first one to regain her voice. This man was to die for and Hermione treated him like he was nothing special.

Hermione smiled and took Viktor hand as they made their way to the dance floor for their dance.


Spencer watched as the group of women got up from the table and made their way to the bar.

"So my man are you ever going to make a move on Hermione or what?" Morgan said with a grin.

"I have no idea what you are talking about Morgan. She is my friend nothing more."

"Yeah you keep telling yourself that. I know you like her and I think she likes you back. I mean why wouldn't she. You guys are the same person."

But Spencer had stopped listening as he saw a man make his way to the women. He was tall with broad shoulders and a crew cut. When he turned Spencer could see he also had a chiseled chin. Spencer could tell he was definitely heading towards Hermione and the rest of the women. He saw the man's mouth move and Hermione spin around to face him. Spencer heard Hermione yell a name as she gave the man a hug and kissed each cheek.

"Hey Morgan" Spencer asked "Who do you think that is?" he pointed at the man now talking to Hermione.

"I don't know but looks like Hermione might know him"

"Yeah…"

"Reid man don't go there. I am sure that is just a friend or something." Morgan said as he saw Spencer's face as he continued to stare at the man.

Spencer watched as Hermione and the mystery man walked off onto the dance floor. Suddenly J.J, Prentiss and Garcia were back at the table with the drinks.

"Who is Hermione dancing with?" he asked Emily

Emily looked at the other girls and sighed as she said "His name is Viktor. They used to go out and are still really good friends. Him and his wife were here and I guess she's wife told him to go dance with her because she does not like dancing with him"

"Hermione went out with him?" Spencer asked shocked. He watched as the name named Viktor spun Hermione around the floor.

"I think I am going to head home. I will see you guys tomorrow." He said and he got up before anyone could say a word.

Before he left he took one last look at Hermione. She was smiling as she was twirled around having fun not noticing the look of pain that was across Spencer's face.


Oh poor Spencer. So I am really bad at trying to do accents but I did the best I could just imagine Viktors deep voice when your reading and you will be fine lol.

malko tsvete is also Bulgarian for little flower.
