"Give me that!" Dr. Spencer Reid reached out and grabbed the notebook from Derek's hands.

"What?" Derek Morgan grinned, eyes squinting and white teeth flashing brightly. "You got Cal's name in there a hundred times? 'Spencer + Calliope 4ever'? 'Mrs. Calliope Reid'?

"Shut up," Spencer mumbled, his face as red as a fire truck, as he pushed past Derek, hitting their shoulders together. "Big jerk."

"You gonna care your initials into a tree somewhere?" Derek followed him, relentless. "There's that new Disney movie out. You should ask her dad if you can take her on a date. Maybe she'll let you hold her hand in the movie theatre. You could get popcorn and candy and share a pop. I bet she's a Redvines kinda girl. No, definitely Skittles. If you play your cards right, you might even get your first kiss."

"Even a little information is dangerous in your hands."

A/N:

This is a flash-fiction one-shot (flash-fiction is 250 words or less; I started counted after the date) that came from me just free-writing in my spiral. Yeah... I don't even know. I was just writing with no intention of anything and yeah. Okay. This one's actually 150 words because I just liked it where it was so I stopped. Yay.

This is a one-shot that's based in what I call my Mystery Muse universe. All my Criminal Minds stories are based within this little universe. Mystery Muse and it's sequel Welcome to the Whirlwind is my Spencer story, so to read more of him (and the rest of the team of course) go there. Also within my littleMystery Muse universe is Cracked Concrete, my Derek story and that's set back when he's still a cop in Chicago, so that's where you can find out what and who made Derek into the man we all love to drool over while he kicks down doors every Wednesday night.

Okay. I'm up in The Soo hanging out with my baby sister so I'm gonna stop now and yeah, I dunno. Bye.

Thanks for reading and, please, tell me what you think - good or bad!

Love, Thalia
