3.

He walked out of the elevator in his building and headed to his apartment door. He took his keys out of his pocket and looked ahead. He saw somebody blond sitting in front of his apartment hugging her knees.

"JJ?" Reid asked.

"Spence!" she looked at him and stood up fast.

"Hey what are you doing here?" he walked closer to her and saw that she had been crying. "What happened?" he worried.

"Nothing, I just…" JJ trailed off. It was obviously hard for her to talk about it, whatever 'it' was.

Reid unlocked the door and walked in leaving it opened for JJ to come after him. She did, he put his jacked on the coat rack and then turned to JJ to put hers there too but she hadn't taken it off so he walked behind her and slid it down her arms and then hooked it next to his on the rack.

Reid didn't want to pressure JJ so he just smiled and gestured for her to take a seat on his sofa. She sat on the left and Reid sat on the right, keeping his distance he looked at her. JJ was looking at her hands which were on her hips and sighed.

"Spence, I…" she looked at him with sad eyes and … her phone rang. She took it out of her pocket and answered.

"Jennifer Jareau?... Yes sir. … OK. I'll be right there." She hung up and was about to tell Reid who called when his phone rang.

"Hello? … OK. Bye." He hang up. "It was Hotch."

"He wants us to go to the BAU ASAP. I just got the info." Interrupted JJ pointing to her phone.

Reid nodded. "Do you want to grab some coffee on the way?"

"No. I mean … if you want to." She looked down again.

"I'm good." He answered. JJ nodded and walked to the door. She took her jacket and waited for Spence to get his stuff. They left, took JJ's car that was parked in front of Reid's building and drove to the BAU mostly in silence.

4.

There they got the case and soon they had to get on the plane and fly to South Dakota. There was no time to talk there; they had a job to do after all.

Three days later the case was closed and the team had to fly back to Quantico. There was thick fog on the airport and all flights were delayed until the fog was gone. The team decided to stay in the hotel that night instead of waiting at the airport as they were tired emotionally from that case.

Reid was in his room reading a book when he heard a knock on the door. He stood up and opened it.

"Hey Emily, come in." he said and gestured for her to come in.

"Hey." She smiled. "Do you know what's wrong with JJ? She's kind of… sad."

"She came to my apartment before Hotch called us for the case but she didn't tell me what was wrong."

"Hmm… I just hope she will be fine." Sighed Emily and her phone rang. "It's Derek. Hello?... I'm at Reid's room. … Aha. Ok. … Bye." she looked at Spence. "Derek asks if we want to get some dinner together later and go to the swimming pool before that."

"Count me in for the dinner." Said Reid.

"Pool?"

"I'm not much of a swimmer." Smiled Reid.

"Ok then." She walked towards the door and opened it. "I'm going for a swim. Oh there's JJ."

"Hey guys what are you doing?" the blond asked casually.

"I'm going for a swim with Derek." Answered Prentiss.

"And you, Spence?" JJ looked at him from the hallway.

Reid shook his head 'no' a little.

"Ahh.. who needs him?" laughed Prentiss closing the door.

JJ also laughed.

"So do you want to go to the pool with me?" asked Emily.

"Yeah… sure."

In ten minutes the whole team except for Reid were in the pool which kind of mystified Morgan.

"Hey! Where's the pretty boy?" he asked the others and looked at each of them.

"He told me he's not coming." Said Emily.

"Why?" asked Rossi.

Emily shrugged.

"I'll go grab him." Suggested JJ and walked out of the pool before anyone could say anything.

The rest of the team looked at each other and kept relaxing.

JJ was up to Reid's room only with her bathing suit on and she knocked at his door.

In a few moments Reid opened the door only in a towel.

"Oh…" he said when he saw JJ who was looking at him from top to bottom with emphasis in the middle. "You're the second person from the team in 4 days to see me only in a towel." Said Spence.

"Hm… sorry." Said JJ and frowned a little bit then they both laughed at that fact. "But… wait who was the first? Don't tell me it was Derek." JJ gave him her best anxious look.

"No, no it wasn't Morgan, actually it was Garcia." Reid said and nodded in confirmation to his own words.

JJ was clearly confused. "Alrighty then." She said looking down with a slight smirk. In a few moments she noticed that Reid wasn't saying anything and looked at him. He had a questioning face on.

"Ah… yes… so uh… we're all in the pool area and we were wondering why you didn't come along and I came… to…" JJ's cheeks grew a little bit red at the sight of the naked, not-at-all-bad-in-a-matter-of-fact-very-well-shaped body of Dr. Spencer Reid only in a towel around his waist in front of her just a few inches away. She just wanted to touch his chest and abs. "Damn it JJ get yourself together - you're staring. It doesn't take a genius profiler as him to notice that." JJ told herself and suddenly looked up at Reid with shocked expression.

"JJ, what's wrong." He asked, worried and took a step closer to her.

"OhGod, OhGod, OhGod! He's coming closer." She was seemingly looking down again but the truth was that she was looking at the hem of his towel. "Oh my God the towel might fall any moment now, any moment. … Stop staring! Ahh! He's touching me." Reid's hand was on her cheek making her look up at him once again. As she did and her eyes met his something in her clicked and she got on her toes, moved her hand behind his neck and she kissed him before he could react. She open-moth kissed him for just a second then pulled back.

"OhmyGodI'msosorry!" she said so fast Reid was left in the dark. He started to say something but was interrupted by JJ apologizing again. "I don't know what got into me, Spence." She said then looked at him from under her lashes and said in a whisper "Don't hate me."

"JJ-" started Reid still confused by the situation.

"What am I saying?" JJ shook her head in desperation. "What does he think of me now? I'm acting like a 12-year-old girl in front of her crush!" "Let's just go to the other's ok?" the blond said with a little bit of exaggeration with trying to sound casual and professional even though she wasn't sure why she was aiming for the second one. "Just leave before you screw up even more!" she ordered herself and started walking down the hallway.

"I'll be right there!" Spence almost shouted after her.

JJ walked back to the others and dipped in the pool.

"Is Reid coming?" asked Morgan. JJ almost coughed at the sound of his name.

"Yeah... he is coming.''

"Cool." Said Morgan and continued his conversation with Hotch and Prentiss.

"Sober up blonde. No really when did Spence become so attractive. I mean … yeah I've always had it for him but … and what happened up there for God's sake. I am with Will … and yeah… we haven't had sex for what's that 4 months now but jumping at poor Spence? I don't know what he must be thinking of me now. And I blew all chances of getting laid with a genius with an IQ of 187. Okayyy… Did I just say that? There's something in the air here." JJ's trail of thoughts were interrupted by the figure walking in the pool area. "Alright. He's here. Act naturally."

"Hey Pen!" JJ walked to Garcia.

"Hey honey." She smiled.

"Reid told me you saw him only in a towel?" JJ started a very normal conversation.

Garcia laughed. "That's a long story. Well not that long. We didn't remember anything-"

SPLASH!

"Derek Morgan, don't ever do that again!" threatened Garcia as she tried to put her hair in order.

"Or what Baby Girl?" laughed Morgan. And with that started a chase around the pool.

Reid got in the pool and started a conversation about the consistence of the water in the swimming pools and how it differs to the water in the seas and oceans with Hotch who soon was praying for his phone to ring. And so it did. Hotch picked up and as Rossi was talking to Prentiss that left JJ and Reid with no one else to talk to. The blond decided that she was still too "crazy" to talk to Spence so she swum on her back. She had closed her eyes and even though she thought she was close to her corner of the pool her hand touched somebody's chest. She stepped on her feet and opened her eyes.

"Spence!" she exclaimed. "Hi." She simply said.

"Hey." He said and smiled at her. "How are you feeling?"

"Me? Good, good. As usual." JJ answered in a babbling manner.

"Because you don't seem like yourself."

"Yeah… I just…" she shrugged and looked down. "Look, Spence, I'm sorry about earlier. It's just that me and Will-"

Reid laughed for a second. "Was it that bad?" he asked in a joking manner that JJ didn't get a hint at.

"What? No!" she looked up at him with worried eyes. "Of course not. I just… thought that you would be angry with me and-"

"JJ, don't worry. I was joking." Reis smiled.

"Hey! What are you talking about?" said Prentiss walking towards them.

"Nothing much." Answered JJ and looked at Reid for a second.

After that they didn't have any time to talk as there was somebody else with them all the time. Next they went to their rooms to shower and back to the restaurant to have some dinner.
