A/N: This chapter is later on the following night and is a slight lemon but not really. I warn you now that it might get a little uncomfortable but is necessary. I repeat this is not graphic and is more emotional than anything else. I hope you enjoy and let me know what you think.

Mount Horizon

Reid woke up in a slight frenzy his mind still drifting back to his dream about a waterfall as he shuffled to the bathroom. Curls fell around his face as he stared at his feet trying to concentrate on anything other than his overwhelming need to go. He opened the wooden door and then quickly closed it behind himself again heading straight to the nearest stall.

"The door was closed for a reason," J.J. said making Reid jump just as he finished relieving himself.

"J.J.?" Reid asked in a tired voice as he flushed the toilet and headed for the sink, "S-sorry I just had to go."

"It's ok," She said from her place on the floor as she watched him rush through washing his hands, "I don't mind the company."

Reid turned around pulling his arms tightly around his body as he took in his comrade. She was sitting in a towel on the bathroom floor with wet hair, her eyes looked tired and slightly puffy as if it was taking everything she had not to cry.

He quickly looked away both in embarrassment and an almost certain knowledge that J.J. wouldn't want him to see her that way. 'Though she said she didn't mind the company, and she looks like she might cry.' He thought to himself as he tried to decide whether or not to leave or try and comfort his friend.

"Will you sit with me Spencer?" J.J. asked throwing Reid for another loop, she never called him Spencer.

Reid looked between J.J. and the door for a few more seconds before going against his better judgment and sliding down the wall next to her.

"A-are you ok?" He stammered out his question quietly as he forced himself to look over at her. He was more than uncomfortable with the idea of J.J. in a towel next to him.

Ignoring his question J.J. carefully inched closer to him before resting her head on his shoulder.

"You always smell so… good," She said slowly as she nestled her head against his neck.

"We s-should b-both probably h-head back to b-bed," Reid spat out quickly trying to ignore how good it felt to have J.J.'s head rubbing against his neck.

"I can't sleep Spencer," She said in an almost whine making sure her breath tickled his Adam's apple.

The sensation of her breath on his neck made him shiver as he fought to stay in control of his brain. 'Something's not right with her,' He thought trying to keep his body from responding to the hand she had placed on his chest.

"J.J. I r-really think," He began before she brought a finger up to his lips.

"You think too much," She said in a voice he was certain he had never heard her use before. It was seductively low and so much smoother than the one she normally spoke.

They sat in silence for a little while; J.J. breathing steadily hot breaths across Reid's neck as he tried to force himself to believe her mere touch didn't make him feel less than civil.

J.J. moved again, slowly making sure each motion was precise. He could feel her hand moving from his chest to his stomach through his F.B.I. t-shirt.

"Tell me what you want," She said in a seductive whisper, her steamy breath tickling at Reid's earlobe.

"This isn't a g-good idea," Reid said in a shaky voice as he made a weak attempt to lean forward.

"Just tell me what you want," J.J. moved her head again so it rested on is neck which instant followed his head back against the wall.

Reid didn't say anything his brain temporarily shutting off against his will at the touch of her lips lightly covering his neck.

"I think I know what you want," She smiled into his neck as she began rubbing slow and deliberate circles on his stomach. Reid accidentally let out a groan as he desperately tried to fight the feeling her hand so high on his stomach was giving him.

"That's what I thought," J.J. whispered into his ear again before taking the lobe into her mouth.

"Feels good doesn't it," She said in that same tone and inched her hand just a little bit closer to his belly button as Reid involuntarily let out another moan.

"We should s-s…" Reid started getting a hold of himself for just a brief moment.

"I know what you want," She said with a slight playful edge in her voice as she took her hand off of his stomach and grabbed one oh his hands instead.

Reid had had his eyes closed for the last few moments but opened them quickly when his hand touched something round and J.J. gasped.

"J.J. T-this is a r-really b-bad idea," He said trying to pull his hand away.

"Come on Spencer," She smiled as she leaned closer to him forcing one of her exposed breasts back into his hand.

Reid looked up from his hand and into J.J.'s eyes. He could feel his own eye's growing wider as he looked into her piercing blue ones. There was something in them, something he was sure that could tell him why she was acting so strangely. At first all he could see was what he could only assume to be lust burning on the surface but just underneath that he was sure he saw anger and possibly sadness.

"Spencer I know what you want," She said again quickly looking away from his knowing eyes her confidence faltering for just a minute. When he didn't say anything she slowly took her hand off his wrist and placed it back over his t-shirt. She smiled when he didn't take his hand off of her and quickly moved her hand down his stomach until she was at the waistband of his pajama bottoms.

"I can make you feel so good," She breathed against his ear again before placing kisses along his jaw line always careful to avoid his mouth.

Reid sat light like a deer caught in blinding headlights as her mouth roamed his neck and ear. He wasn't sure what he wanted or why he had even come into the bathroom that was the power she had over him in that moment.

Reid moaned softly as her hand found it's way inside his pants and lightly gripped the top of one of his thighs.

"I knew it," She smiled against his neck as she massaged his thigh being careful not to touch him where she was certain he wanted her too. She nuzzled her nose against his throat softly moving it back and forth listening to his breaths become more labored.

She moved her mouth slowly up his jaw line again before whispering in his ear, "I knew it's what you wanted… it's what they always want."

'They?' Reid thought snapping his mind out of the trance her touches had put him in.

"What do you mean they?" He asked removing his hand from her breast.

J.J. stopped rubbing for a minute and looked up at him confusion clear on her face.

"Just relax Spencer," J.J. recovered putting on her most seductive smile and began massaging his leg again.

"No!" He said as firmly as he could as he grabbed her hand and pulled it from his pants forcing himself to think past how badly his body wanted her to keep touching him. He had to compel his mind to see beyond the lust and think like a profiler.

"Excuse me?" She asked her voice filled with venom as she wrapped the towel back around herself.

"J.J. I really d-don't think you w-want to do this," Reid said noticing the anger in her eyes come full front with what he could only imagine as hurt behind them.

"Not anymore," She said rather loudly suddenly so angry and confused she wanted to scream, "I was trying to help you, Fuck it's not like the girls just come running to you like they do Morgan."

"I'm just trying to help," Reid said pretending like her words hadn't hurt him.

J.J. stood up quickly pulling the towel tighter around her body as she marched towards the door, "Get out!"

Reid looked at her for a moment with confusion before she spoke again.

"I said get out!" She screamed her blonde hair whipping around her face as she moved her head from facing the door to Reid.

Reid quickly stood up and walked towards her his brain quickly trying to process not only what had changed in the last minute or so but what had happened since he entered the bathroom.

"J.J. let me help you," He said with surprising confidence as she opened the door.

"For a genius you're acting like an idiot!" She yelled throwing him a death glare as she pushed him out of the door, "What part of get the Fuck out is so hard for you to understand?"

With in a second of screaming the door was slammed shut in Reid's face. Before he could think of what to do the door in front of him locked as an awkward cough came from behind him.

"Reid?" Hotch asked placing a hand on the young man's shoulder when he didn't turn around when Morgan coughed.

Reid slowly turned around hugging himself close before looking up to see everyone awake and staring at him.

"What was that?" Morgan asked as Prentiss quickly got out of bed and made her way over to the bathroom door and knocking on it.

"J.J.?" She asked tucking some of her raven hair behind an ear. Before she could knock again she heard the shower turn on behind the door.

"That's her fourth shower today," Reid said softly coming out of the shock that J.J.'s odd behavior threw him into.

"That's normal," Juliette shook her head as she pulled her thin legs under her, "For her at least."

"What the hell is going on?" Morgan asked as Reid took a seat at the end of Garcia's bed, which just happened to be next to the bathroom door.

Reid just sat for a moment thinking over what had transpired between him and his good friend over and over again.

"Reid what happened in the bathroom?" Hotch asked his voice slightly softer than usual.

"I have no clue," Reid said honestly before trying to explain what he did know, "She wanted… I mean we…"

"Did you two have sex?" Garcia asked bluntly just as curious as everyone else.

"No," Reid looked up quickly before looking down again feeling rather embarrassed.

"That explains a lot," Juliette said earning the attention of everyone in the room.

"I'm sorry but I'm really confused," Prentiss said heading back towards her own bed.

"Me too," Reid laughed tiredly sure that everyone with the exception of J.J.'s old classmate was thoroughly confused.

"Juliette was it?" Morgan asked looking over at the tiny brunette. She simply nodded her head and waited for him to continue, "Would you mind explaining what that was?"

"That," She said pointing between Reid and the bathroom door, "Was typical Shelby."

"Can you break that down a little bit more cupcake?" Garcia asked trying to understand what would make her sweet J.J. scream those awful things at Reid.

"She tried to seduce you?" Juliette asked looking at Reid who simply nodded his head and blushed, "And you refused?"

Reid nodded again his blush getting deeper.

"That's what Shelby does. When she first came to Horizon she slept with almost every guy that was willing and would get really pissed if they turned her down," Juliette said thinking back to the times the blonde had tried to steal both the men she cared about.

"It's a coping mechanism," Reid said in the same voice he used while delivering a profile, knowing that he needed to distance his J.J. and Juliette's Shelby in his mind, "The stress of her two worlds colliding, of her sisters death…"

"What did she say in there?" Morgan asked in full profiler mode the thought of sleep long forgotten.

The young profiler looked down at his hands for a moment trying to see past his own embarrassment and see how this would help J.J., "She kept asking me to tell her what I wanted, She said 'I know what you want', just relax, I can make you feel so good," He paused for a moment and turned scarlet before continuing, "She kept calling me Spencer."

"She was trying to distance herself," Prentiss jumped in, "She didn't want it to be J.J. trying to seduce you but Shelby."

"How do you know that?" Juliette asked honestly curious.

"J.J. always calls him Spence or Reid if she's angry never Spencer," Hotch explained feeling slightly guilty they were profiling a member of their team, "By calling him something out of the norm she can separate herself from the actions."

"What aren't you telling us Reid?" Morgan asked looking over at his friend who was currently curled in on himself thinking.

"She said they," Reid said unsure if it was the right thing to do, "She said it's what they always want."

"They?" Garcia asked through a yawn.

Reid nodded, "When I asked her what she meant by they she sort of snapped out of it, she was J.J. again for a second."

"She slipped up," Prentiss mused out loud not noticing the lack of water running in the background.

"I'm not an unsub," J.J. said coldly from the now open doorway her hair dripping wet and her pajama's on.

"We know Kitten," Garcia said noticing how J.J. seemed to shrink away at her seemingly innocent statement, "We're just worried."

"Please don't," She said bitterly hearing someone call her kitten. J.J. shook her head and warmed up a little bit trying to remember their J.J., "I mean I'm sorry for my outburst and for what I pulled in the bathroom Spence."

Reid looked up and over at her at the sound of her nickname for him, "I'm just worried about you J.J. … That was not you."

"I know and I'm sorry I don't know what came over me," J.J. smiled a meek uncomfortable smile, "I think I'm just really tired and stressed from all the planning, and from seeing Daisy and everything else."

"That's understandable J.J.," Hotch started before turning to look at the clearly upset blonde, "But we can't help if you don't talk to us."

"Can we just go to bed?" J.J. asked before trying to calculate the easiest way to get out of this uncomfortable mess she'd gotten herself in, "I promise we can talk tomorrow, just the team, I'm just really exhausted right now."

"That's fine," Hotch said before turning to face the entire room, "We still have a few more hours to sleep."

With that everyone headed back to his or her bed each thoroughly confused and sleepy.

When six rolled around the team slowly woke up to the sound of water running and an empty bed with J.J.'s purse sitting on it.
