Ch. 3: What Brings You Around

Spencer sighed and attempted to lay back in his seat and get a quick nap. It was compleatly impossable though since he could hear his coworkers discuss the case that they had just finished early this morning after working almost all night.

They had been in Portland, Oregon for this case, and needless to say everyone was more than ready to get home for the weekend.

They had caught the guy early this morning when had attempted to abduct another women. He had been abducting college age women, keeping them for a few days torturing them and then killing them.

At least it didn't take long for the guy to confess, and the girl was going to be okay despite the fact that she'd almost been kidnapped.

The case had been more than upsetting to Spencer. It was because of the first crime scene that they'd gotten too.

The girl had dark red hair and brown eyes, just like Madison. He froze when he saw the body. Thankfully Morgan had gotten his attention and he was able to focus on the case, but he was sure his coworkers had noticed the way he'd acted.

Reid frowned and opened his eyes when he heard Morgan's voice "Hey Reid are you okay"?

Spencer sighed opening his eyes "Yeah I'm fine. I'm tired thats all".

Morgan frowned knowing that the young man definitely was not okay. Not to mention Reid was obviously hiding something big more than likely a women. He'd come in too work at least two times with hickeys on his neck, and he'd been way more outgoing lately. Which was weird for him considering he usually kept to himself unless he had something to say about statistics or random facts.

"Are you sure? I mean you've been acting weird lately".

Spencer sighed knowing that this was true, but it was hard to hide everything about Madison from people who were trained to notice when someone was trying hard to hide things.

He frowned ignoring Morgan's concerned face "Yeah I'm just really tired. I stayed up late last night reading these books I got the other day on Egyptian pyramids. Did you know that the first historically documented pyramid was built in..."

Morgan spoke up interrupting him "I'm gonna go get some coffee do you want some"?

Reid frowned quickly saying no thank you as he watched Morgan walk away.

He could admit that most of the people he worked with weren't interested in hearing any facts and statistics that didn't have anything to do with cases they were working. He had the feeling that his hobby of randomly blurting out what he knew could sometimes annoy the people around him.

Reid was grateful when the plane finally landed and they arrived back at work. At least now he could hurry up and gather his things, and get home since it was the weekend. He was hoping that Madison would be home. Or at least at his apartment which might as well be home considering she was always there unless she was mad at him.

Spencer gathered as many of his things up as he could before he shoved everything he needed into his messenger bag surprised that it all fit. He was usually very orderly but he just wanted to get out of here.

He headed towards the elevators mumbling a few goodbyes.

Morgan frowned as he watched Spencer leave. The way he'd been acting lately was completely Un- Reid like

He sighed and glanced over at JJ who looked slightly worried as well. He shook his head deciding that maybe it wasn't such a big deal if Reid had a secret. Besides whatever it was Reid could probably just work through it himself.

He rolled his eyes when he glanced at Reid's desk seeing that he'd left some of his paperwork on his desk. Paperwork which they were supposed to turn in Monday by noon at the latest.

He sighed grabbing the file, deciding that he could make a quick stop by Reid's apartment on the way home.

Madison wasn't surprised to find that she'd fallen asleep on Spencer's sofa. It was something that happened every time he was out of town for work.

She guessed that it was maybe because she missed him and it felt weird sleeping in his bed alone and being in his apartment alone.

Missing him wasn't something that she wasn't comfortable admitting at first. She hadn't really felt like she was ready for another relationship when she gotten involved with Spencer.

It was mainly because she had just gotten out of an incredibly unhappy relationship with someone that she was convinced she was going to marry. This had all happened right before she had moved too DC. Greg had been her high school sweetheart. They had gone to prom together and moved in together after graduation.

Unfortunately he had been an alcoholic which had put a huge strain on everything. Not that Madison was completely innocent she had partied quite a bit too, but it just all became too much. She'd had the feeling that he was cheating on her and their fights had become more and more frequent.

So She'd broken up with Greg and left for DC. Moved in with her sister and met Spencer. She had followed her heart and fallen in love with him despite the fact that her brain was telling her to run for her life.

She sat up running her hands through her hair. Looking up when a worn out looking Spencer walked through the door.

He smiled grateful that she was here, before he put all his things down sighing.

Madison got up before wrapping her arms around him and kissing him softly.

He had too admit he enjoyed kissing her almost more than anything else in the world. He was convinced she had perfect lips, very soft, extremely smooth, they were just the right size not too thin and not too full.

He frowned feeling slightly disappointed when she broke the kiss. Especially considering he was just starting too reach up her shirt before she broke the kiss and moved back from him slightly.

She ran her hand across his cheek before speaking up "You look exhausted. Didn't you get any sleep at all while you were gone"?

He shrugged " I slept a little but you know how it is. The nightmares kept me up again".

She nodded understanding the fact that he had nightmares. They were actually starting to happen less lately, but they always got worse when he was away from home.

She frowned before running her hand through his hair and speaking up 'You should take a shower. I'll get something started for dinner okay"?

He sighed speaking up "It's late though. I'll be okay not eating".

Madison rolled her eyes frowning "Oh please it's only nine thirty, and you need too eat. Besides your way too skinny you know that"?

Spencer sighed knowing he'd had this conversation more than a few times "It's genetics everyone in my family is this thin".

She kissed his cheek nodding "I know, but that doesn't stop me from wanting to feed you. Go take a shower okay".

He nodded listening too her as he wondered off towards the back of the apartment to his bathroom.

Madison went to the kitchenette grabbing a box of hamburger helper out of the cabinet. It was one of the many boxed meals he had in his house. It was really the only thing he'd ever learned how to cook growing up. Considering he'd cooked for his mother who wasn't in the right state of mind to cook or teach him how to cook.

Madison took all the contents out of the box before she heard the doorbell ring.

She frowned too herself knowing that she hadn't invited anyone over, and Spencer would have said something if he was expecting someone.

She walked over too the door before peeking through the peephole seeing a familiar man standing on the other side of the door.

Madison sighed knowing he could see her staring at him through the other side of the door. She opened it seeing his shocked expression that she'd answered the door.

Morgan frowned thinking he'd gotten the wrong apartment, but that was impossible since he'd been to Reid's apartment before.

He frowned wondering if this was in fact Reid's apartment then what was a very attractive sort of familiar looking women whom obviously wasn't just visiting, considering she was wearing just a pair of black pajama pants and a pink tank top, doing in his house.

Morgan sighed a little knowing that she was the provider of Reid's hickeys.

"Um is Dr. Spencer Reid here"?

Madison opened her mouth trying hard to form words, but the only thing that came out was a throaty "ugh" noise.

Morgan frowned realizing where he'd seen this girl before. Sure it was at least seven months ago, but he could remember meeting her "Hey your Garcia's half sister right? Madison, the one that used to come visit her at work all the time"?

Madison opened her mouth trying to talk but just ended up making another noise "uh eh"

If things couldn't be anymore awkward at this point a slightly damp Spencer wondered out of the bathroom in a pair of blue plaid pajama pants and a black T shirt. He stared down at an empty shampoo bottle not noticing that his girlfriend was standing at the front door in front of one of his coworkers.

He sighed still looking down "Madie we need to remember to get some more of this shampoo next time we get groceries".

He finally looked up dropping his jaw slightly seeing Morgan. "what are you doing here"?

Morgan sighed "You forgot this file on your desk. Why didn't you say anything about the fact that Garcia's sister and you are dating"?

Spencer frowned scratching his head before speaking up "I guess you better come in".

Morgan nodded his head entering Reid's house and sitting on his couch.

Spencer grabbed Madison's hand sighing "We've been together for almost seven months now, but you seriously can't tell anyone this especially not Garcia".

Morgan frowned "Why not? I don't see what the big deal is".

Madison shrugged finally finding it in her to speak up "We want too tell her ourselves it's just really complicated. I mean she's my half sister and I love her and everything. She can get over protective sometimes. We just wanted to wait a little while".

Spencer sighed a little "We're going to make everything public soon though"

Morgan sighed before speaking up "Okay fine, but if Garcia finds anything out about this I didn't know".

Spencer nodded grateful that he wasn't going to tell. He sighed trying to change the subject "So do you want to stay for dinner or something"?

Morgan shook his head "No I think I'm going to go home now". He sighed looking at Madison "Well it's nice too meet you ...agian I guess".

She nodded back still a little bit worried that he might tell "yeah".

Morgan let himself out wishing he could tell someone since this was pretty good. Dr. Reid wasn't so naive about women after all. He frowned knowing that he'd have too keep his word though.

Spencer sighed after Morgan left before staring over at his obviously nervous girlfriend "He's a good friend. He wont tell anyone"

Madison nodded praying that he was right. She knew her sister wouldn't be happy if she heard about their relationship from someone besides Madison.

She felt Spencer grab her hand before speaking up "Lets go make dinner".
