"You never called me back." JJ stated, looking at him.
Spencer turned away from the window to look at the woman, confused. "What?"
"Last night. You never called me back. What happened?" She asked, an amused look on her face appearing as soon as the man began to flush.
"Well.. you see... there was...I... It died."
"Oh, it died, huh?" JJ chuckled. "Had nothing to do with Lila wanting to play doctor."
Morgan turned. "Play... Oh hell yeah!"
"That.. she was... it was just a play on words-"
"-that means she wanted to do the dirty with our certified genius. So... how was it?" Derek asked, leaning in and JJ threw her pillow at him.
"Perv."
"Derek caught the pillow but kept his attention on Reid. "Was it good? I bet she's all into those yoga and pilates stuff. Very flexible huh?"
"I.. uh... you know that yoga and prayer are linked together. Studies say that -"
"Is Lila religious?"
"Oh, god." JJ said, covering her eyes, not wanting to hear this conversation anymore. It was her own fault.
'That's what I bet Lila was saying-"
"Enough. He's turning purple." Hotch said with a slight smile on his face.
Reid slumped back into his chair, desperately wanting to get off this plane.

JJ wrapped her arms around the genius' back, resting her head between his shoulder blades. "I'm sorry. I didn't think he was listening."
She felt the man tense, but eventually relax as he sighed. "I know."
"Let me take you home?" She asked as he turned to face her. He frowned.
You shouldn't be driving, JJ. You have a concussion. Where's Will?"
"Henry's sick and I don't need anyone to take care of me, Spence."
"I'm driving you home. I can walk from there."
JJ shook her head. "No, Spence."
"Yes, now give me your keys." He placed a hand on the small of her back before leaning to grab her keys that laid viewable in her purse. He snatched them up before she could disagree.
"You can't drive to save your life."
"I can. I just don't like to drive."
JJ sighed and laid her head on his chest. "If you get into an accident, Will is going to kick your ass for hurting me while I'm already hurt."
He rubbed her back. "I'll drive slow."
"Okay."

Spencer looked at the woman in the passenger's seat.
"Do you think..." He paused and looked back at the road. JJ raised an eyebrow.
"Do I think what?"
"Do you think she really likes me?" He said, softly.
JJ smiled and leaned her head against the window. "She'd be a fool not to. Are you two going to see each other again?"
Spencer slightly shrugged before turning into her driveway. "I hope so."
She leaned in and kissed his forehead. "She's crazy if she doesn't call you. You're crazy if you don't call her."
Spencer smiled a little. "How early is too early to call?"
JJ grinned and ruffled his hair. "I think the rule is 3 days."
Spencer made a face. "I have to wait three days to call her?"

Spencer looked up at Morgan before at the magazine he had dropped on his desk.
"A new man for Hollywood's leading lady? Lila Archer not only has the top movie of the week, but a new man in her life. Archer, pictured with an unknown man, was seen leaving her personal movie debut party with him the night before. Maybe a stunt double? He was on crutches."
Spencer looked down at the magazine reading the article before looking up at Morgan who had a large grin on his face.
"Stunt double, huh? They think you.. You!... are a stunt double. Classic, huh?"
JJ looked over his shoulder and grabbed the magazine. "That's a good picture, Spence."
Spencer looked at her before back at Morgan who was laughing. "A Stunt Double!"
Emily rested her head on her hand. "The guy from her last movie had long hair."
All three turned towards her and she shrugged. "It was a cute movie. Girl moves to California to get away from the Midwest, meets cute surfer boy and falls in love. I didn't know Reid had a thing with Lila Archer!"
JJ laughed before taking the magazine. "I'm taking this. I wanna see what's happening in the world of Bradgelina."
"Bradgelina?"
Morgan shook his head and was about to explain when Spencer's phone buzzed.
His eyes widened when he saw the name on the caller ID. "I... I have to take this."
JJ and Morgan whistled at him as he crutched to the break room. "Go Hollywood!"
Spencer answered the phone once he was away. "Rei- Hello."
"Spencer? Hi. It's... well... How are you?"
"Hi Lila. I'm fine. I'm at work. How.. What are you up to?"
"Interviews and stuff. Did you see the papers?"
"I'm a stunt double. Morgan thinks it's hilarious."
Lila laughed. "You have to admit, you're...a little nerdy, Spence."
"Yeah, thanks. Are you... When will you be in DC?"
"I have some things to do to in LA for the next week, but I might be able to fly out next week. Why do you want to see me again, Doctor Reid?"
"I'd... I'd like that, if you aren't too busy."
She laughed a little. "Spence, I'm always busy. I can make time for you though if you really want to see me."
"I do, I mean, if you'd like."
"Spencer.."
"I'm sorry, Yes. I want to see you. I'd like that a lot."
There was a silence before she spoke. "Good. I want to see you too."
He smiled before looking back at his team who were watching him. He turned away. "I... are you going to busy tonight? I was going to rent your movies and I was wondering if we could...talk?"
She laughed. "You're going to watch my movies?"
"Well, yeah. You know what I do. I want to see what you do."
"You should go see the newest one in theaters."
"Maybe we can do that in a week."
"Go pay to watch my own movie?"
"It's not like you won't be getting it back."
She laughed. "You have a point. I'll try to call you tonight. Go be the hero and I'll talk to you later."
"You know that I'm not always the hero."
"You'll always be my hero, Spence."
