A/N: And here is the next chapter everyone! I do hope you guys like it. :)

Disclaimer: Own nothing but my OC.

Takes place during and after episode four season one.

Evelyn slammed the door of her car shut with her foot, gripping the unmarked white box firmly yet gently as she walked across the parking lot towards the FBI building. Catching sight of her team member just going through the glass doors she quickened her pace.

"JJ! Mind holding that door open!" She called out. The blonde turned where she was, a little surprised at red head's sudden appearance but stepping aside and holding the door open for her all the same. JJ nodded her head in the direction of the box.

"Whats in there?" She asked as they walked down the corridor towards the bullpen.

"You'll see" The red head grinned, walking towards Morgan's desk, as JJ followed after her. Morgan, who had been sitting with his feet on his desk, stood up at the sight of his two team members. Evelyn placed the box on his desk.

"Elle distracting Spencer?" She asked, turning to look at her friend who nodded.

"They'll be back in fifteen minutes or so." He replied, checking his phone before he did. Evelyn nodded.

"Thats plenty of time." She said, before removing the lid of the box and carefully picking up the cake that was inside. She held it out for her team members to see.

"Well what do you think?" She asked, a bit uncertainly as both JJ and Morgan stared at the cake. Morgan chuckled.

"Sweetheart, you went all out this year." He grinned and Evelyn grinned back. Sweetheart was one of the many nicknames Morgan had for the blue eyed ginger.

"Wait! You made that yourself?" JJ asked, tearing her eyes away from the cursive and elegantly written Happy Birthday. The red head nodded.

"Yeah! I make a cake every year on special occasions." She explained, walking towards Spencer's desk as she did.

"It looks really professional!" JJ said, not taking her eyes off the cake. Evelyn shrugged.

"You pick up a few things over the years." She muttered, setting the cake down carefully on Spencer's desk.

"You got the candles?" She asked turning to Morgan who nodded, opening a drawer and extracting a packet of colorful little candles.

"Got 'em right here." He said holding them up and grinning. "Oh!" He paused as if remembering something and leaned down under his desk to grab a bag, pulling a hat out of it. JJ raised an eyebrow at the item while Evelyn laughed.

"That looks like a Mad Hatter's hat gone wrong." She giggled, before giving her friend a thumbs up.

"Nice job!" Morgan gave a little bow while she grabbed the candles and glancing at the packet, raising an eyebrow.

"Trick candles. Really?" Morgan only grinned and shrugged, while Evelyn shook her head.

"And people say I'm the youngest." She muttered before ripping open the packet and lining up the candles neatly in front of her.

"JJ? Would you mind getting Gideon and Hotch from their offices please?"

"Only if you tell me what kind if cake this is." The blonde asked, smiling teasingly. Evelyn grinned.

"Chocolate." She replied simply. JJ's eyes seemed to shine with excitement before she went off to perform her task.

Evelyn and JJ had developed a friendly relationship after the former's initial shyness had worn off. JJ had been quick to learn that Evelyn had been a daddy's girl growing up, and since JJ herself had been one she knew the pain the younger woman felt at loosing her father since she had lost her's at a young age as well. Evelyn had been quite open about her father and had praised him so much that it was easy to see she had adored the man growing up. JJ was glad she had made a new friend like Evelyn. The girl was sweet and awkward once you got past the shyness she carried about her. JJ wasn't normally friends with quite people but Evelyn was an exception.

Apart from Reid that is.

Evelyn hummed under her breath as she picked up the last candle and placed it on top of the cake carefully, making sure that none of the candles would disturb the cursive icing which had the words, Happy Birthday Spencer, spelled out.

"That looks spectacular Evelyn." The red head turned to see Agent Gideon leaning over her shoulder to look at her little masterpiece. Her cheeks reddened slightly at the compliment.

"It's nothing Agent Gideon." She muttered, shyly averting her gaze from her superior. Morgan chuckled, ruffling her hair.

"Awww. Little Evelyn's embarrassed." He cooed as the red head batted his hands away from her head, her blush very noticeable against her pale cheeks.

"Quit it, Morgan!" She grumbled, pouting as she did. Morgan only laughed as he started lighting up the candles with a cigarette lighter he had borrowed. JJ soon came back with Agent Hotch following after her. His eyes widened slightly at the sight of the cake.

"Going all out this year Evelyn?" He asked, smiling slightly at the sight of the blushing red head.

"I always go out every year Hotch!" She protested, stomping her foot slightly, and pouting, looking every bit the child she was. Evelyn may have become an FBI Agent at quite a young age but that did not mean that she grew up with it. Small streaks of her childish behavior would come out every now and then especially when she was embarrassed or in a mischievous mood. She never showed that side of her while working. When it came to work Evelyn was as serious and dedicated as any other FBI Agent, if not better, as Hotch and Gideon had discussed amongst themselves.

Lighting the last of the candles Morgan checked his phone.

"They're coming." He announced. And sure enough at the very same moment, Spencer and Elle rounded the corner entering the bullpen.

"Here comes the birthday boy!" Morgan called out, startling the young man, as he looked towards the source of the noise. His lips pulled into a sheepish smile as JJ and Morgan started to clap and hoot. Elle joining them while Evelyn raced forward and placed the hat on top of his head.

"Happy Birthday Spence!" She grinned up at him, leaning up on her tip toes to adjust the hat. She grabbed his hand, leading him over to his desk.

"Happy Birthday Reid." Hotch gave a small smile as he wished the young doctor.

"Thanks Hotch. Thanks you guys." Reid said glancing around at his friend before he was pushed into the chair and he finally saw the cake with all the candle flickering on top. He recognized the cursive, neat icing immediately and glanced up at Evelyn.

"Thanks for the cake Evelyn. Its beautiful."

The effect was almost immediate. Evelyn's pale cheeks, already slightly pink from her past blush, came back full force and her cheeks grew red, as she averted her eyes from her friend's and looked down on the ground.

"You're welcome Spence."

Elle smiled throwing an arm around the younger girl's shoulder and squeezing her before turning to the birthday boy.

"Make a wish!" She said, gesturing towards the candles, where the wax was beginning to melt faster. Spencer nodded his head dutifully before taking a deep breath and blew the breath out.

"Come on man! Blow, baby blow!" Morgan laughed as Reid tried his best to blow out the candles. Evelyn started to giggle at his futile attempts.

"I thought you were full of hot air Reid." Elle called out, getting a laugh out of everyone.

"Come on, Reid." Morgan urged.

Previous shyness forgotten Evelyn hooted and clapped her hands. "Come on Reid!" She said.

Of course their fun had to end sometime.

"They're trick candles, Spence. Okay?" JJ explained taking pity on him after the candles went out before coming back on again.

"They're gonna come back on every time." JJ said as Reid tried one more time before giving up.

"Awww, mommy's here to rescue you!" Morgan, playing with the hat placed on his head as Evelyn grabbed the plates Elle had brought and placed them next to the cake.

"Mommy?" Reid asked confused, not really getting the reference as the others laugh. Evelyn patted his back affectionately.

"Don't worry that big head of yours Spence." She giggled when he turned his head to her, his eyes wide in the best imitation he had of a puppy eyed look, and she tapped the side of his head.

"Reid? Is it legal yet to take you to a bar or something?" Morgan teased, earning him an elbow in the gut from the red head, who shook her finger at him.

"Lay off Morgan. Its his birthday today." She scolded as JJ reached forward and picked up a candle from the cake.

"Hope you like chocolate." She said, smiling at the young doctor.

"You're getting wax on the cake man." Morgan said as JJ and Elle removed the candles. Spotting Hotch and Gideon standing a little ways away from the little gropu Evelyn walked over to them.

"You guys not joining in?" She asked. Hotch gave a small smile.

"We came in a couple of shots Evelyn." The red head smiled sheepishly as she turned to give a thumbs up to a fellow agent who was holding a small camera. He smiled back, before sitting down on his desk. Evelyn turned back to the two older agents and shrugged.

"You know I can't resist." She said. Hotch only shook his head before walking over to an agent who had called out to him. Just then Reid walked over to Gideon as Evelyn took Hotch's position leaning against the wall, her arms crossed behind her back, humming a tune that sounded suspiciously like happy birthday.

"You having fun?" Gideon asked, turning to look at him.

"Yes, definitely. I'm definitely having fun." He said in a monotone voice. Evelyn's humming got louder at the comment, which earned her a glare from him, which she responded with a grin and poked her tongue out at him.

"Make a wish?" Gideon asked, ignoring the small exchange between the two friends.

"Can I take this hat off?" Reid asked, motioning towards the hat Evelyn had placed on his head. Gideon turned his head to see Evelyn, pouting at the man. He sighed, shaking his head, before turning to look at Spencer again.

"I wouldn't." He advised. He smiled inwardly when he heard a quite exclamation of 'Yes!' beside him.

"Hey Spence." The three of them turned to see JJ holding out a piece of birthday cake. "First piece for the birthday boy." She said smiling. Reid took a step forward before retracing said step.

"Do you know she's the only person in the whole world who calls me "Spence"?" He commented laughing nervously. Evelyn frowned as she followed after him.

"I call you Spence too!" She said to which he responded with a shrug.

"You only call me Spence sometimes. She calls me Spence all the time." Evelyn only shrugged at his response.

"I can call you Spence all the time too you know." She grinned. He smiled and tucked his hands in the pockets of his pants.

"Only if I get to call you Evie."

Evelyn never let anyone call her Evie. She said she preferred Evelyn and had told no one why it was so. Whatever the case was, Spencer had tried on numerous occasions to guess why she didn't wanted to be called Evie, and he was still trying. The two of them had a bet going that if he ever guessed it he would be allowed to call her Evie for all her life. So far he had not been able to guess at all. Which was why he had decided to try a new track. However she only shook her head at him, smiling.

"We are not going back on our little agreement Spence." She said, to which he pouted. Evelyn only laughed pushing him in JJ's direction.

"Now go get your cake." She called ignoring the look he threw over his shoulder and accepting the cake with a thank you. The red head sighed before crossing her arms over her chest, biting down on her lip.

"You know, you have to tell him one of these days." She turned to see Gideon standing next to her. He had watched the whole exchange.

"He's a profiler he'll get it one of these days." He warned her to which she only shrugged.

"Then I'll tell him to call me Evie." She muttered under her breath, trying not to let the pain on her face show every time she heard the name, either from her own lips or from someone else's it didn't really matter.

"Hey Evelyn? You're not gonna try out your own cake?" Elle called out, holding up a slice. The red head's lips pulled into a smile, previous traces of pain and sadness forgotten as she bounded over to her fellow agent and took the plate from her with a thank you.

The festive mood however was broken when Hotch called over.

"Sorry, guys. Party's over."

Evelyn deflated visibly at the words, but put her plate down nonetheless, smiling at how Morgan seemed to be shoveling the cake into his mouth as fast as he could. Spencer took off his hat, finishing the last bite of his cake. He reached out for his messenger bag when Evelyn tapped the side of his arm to get his attention. He turned to see her holding out her hand.

"Can I have your keys? I can drop the cake off on my home from work tonight." Spencer nodded as he grabbed his house keys and handed them over to her. She smiled in thanks before picking up the cake and placing it back inside the box.

"I'll see you guys when you get back then." She said, giving a half hearted wave in her Team's direction. Morgan ruffled her hair, while JJ and Elle shot her smiles. She smiled back, picking up the cake and starting to walk to the small kitchen to put the cake in the fridge.

"Where are you all going anyway?" She asked Hotch as he walked by.

"San Diego."

Evelyn sighed as she plopped down into her chair. It was the second day since her Team's departure and she was already starting to miss them. This wasn't a new occurrence, it was their job to go from state to state, from town to town catching all the monsters out there, but that didn't mean that she didn't miss them every time they did. But it was their job and she had to go with it. And since she was always being updated on the cases by researching and digging up all the dirt on anyone her Team requested alongside Penelope it wasn't like she was being kept out of the loophole. She was very much part of the loophole.

But being confined in the four walls of her office was different then being out in the field. She had never been out there. Not once. Of course she had gone to a few cases, whenever they had needed technical assistance but she had never been allowed to go to the actual crime scenes. She was fine with that though. Evelyn didn't know how much a strong stomach she had. Quite string she had reasoned since she didn't throw up or faint at the sight of the mangled and mutilated bodies of the people murdered while going through the Team's Case files.

The young technician glanced at her digital clock, not even fazed when she read the numbers glowing, indicating that it was almost midnight. She leaned her head back against the back rest of her chair, closing her slightly aching eyes, giving them time to rest for a few seconds, from all the computer screen time she had done that day.

Somebody was shaking her shoulder.

"-lyn? Eve-? Evelyn?"

And calling out her name.

But she was too tired and sleepy so she simply batted the hand away and tried to roll over in her bed.

Of course she wasn't in her bed.

An involuntary shriek erupted from her lips as she fell from the chair she had been sitting on. Luckily she landed on her hands and knees and not on her face, saving her from another pair of broken glasses. But whoever it was found the situation funny since they started to laugh. She lifted her face to see Spencer smiling down at her, holding out his hand.

"Being a genius and all, you should've known not to wake up a person sleeping in a chair." She muttered, taking his hand and standing up, straightening and dusting herself off as she did. Spencer only shrugged.

"Actually with the angle your head was in its a good thing I awoke you or you would've complained about the crick you would've gotten in your neck." Evelyn narrowed her eyes at him, before crossing her arms over her chest.

"What do you want?" She demanded, still cranky about having her nap interrupted.

"Well I want my keys back." He said, leaning forward to straighten a pile of papers as he did. "We just got back from the case and I want to go home now please?" He shrugged, adding a pleading tone at the end. Evelyn reached for her own messenger bag rummaging through it as she did.

"How'd the case go?" She asked. She already knew how it went but she just wanted to ask him herself.

"It went alright. I mean we caught the guy." Spencer offered the answer, keeping it brief and short. Evelyn nodded, as she finally found his keys.

"And that is all that matters." She said, holding the keys out for him to take. He muttered a thanks as he took them, before frowning slightly as he caught sight of something.

"These weren't there before." He said, holding up the keys so that the keychains could be seen.

While one looked old and faded the other two looked brand new. One was a small glass cube with a small card of the Ace of Hearts in the middle, while the other was a little Einstein, with its hair sticking out in all directions.

"Oh!" Evelyn gave a sheepish smile, reaching up to pull at the right tendril of hair at the side of her face, which Spencer had noticed she did when she was feeling shy and embarrassed.

"I was just walking by and I saw them through a window." She shrugged. "Its just a little birthday present. Do you like them?" She asked, her voice hopeful yet fearful at the same time.

Being a profiler Reid couldn't help it when he unconsciously made a little profile of every single person he met. And Evelyn was no exception. He knew that she was very very insecure about everything she did and even who she was. She tried her best to please people, no matter what the consequences, and would ask how she did after performing the task. Gideon had told him once that Evelyn was like that because of something that happened to her in her childhood but he wouldn't explain any further. And Reid had let it rest at that.

Seeing her look up at him with those wide blue expectant eyes he smiled, gripping the keys tightly in his hands.

"Thanks. They're great. I really like them."

He wasn't lying. He really did like the keychains and the smile she gave him made him glad that he did like them. He glanced down at his watch.

"Alright I gotta get back home. I'll see you tomorrow then." He said, to which she nodded.

"Have a goodnight sleep. I still have these files to go through." She gestured towards the pile in front of her.

"Happy reading!" He called, closing the door behind him but not before he heard her saying quietly to herself.

"Maybe I should put a couple into Morgan's pile..."
