Sorry for the wait...I was busy with the last few days of Senior Year. I'm a grad now! I think I'm gonna hustle up the 'three months' for Paige to graduate because she's sort of a reflection of myself.

As ever, I don't own Criminal Minds. Sad me. Paige is mine though.

R&R please!! I love your feedback.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next several weeks passed quickly for Paige. She studied hard, and any free-time she had was spent with Garcia, or her father. Occasionally, she went out to dinner with the whole team, and sometimes she would talk to them on the phone while they were away. She was settled into her new life, and although she missed her mother everyday, she was happy.

It was Friday, and she was supposed to be picked up. Her father had sent her a text message saying he would be in meetings, and Penelope was developing a program to help the FBI, so he would send Spencer. She stood on the sidewalk, looking for Reid. He honked at her from across the street. She looked both ways and ran across the street to jump into Spencer's SUV.

"Hey Paige," he said. She smiled at him.

"Hey, what's up?" She asked.

"Well, your dad doesn't even get off work until late, so he asked me to take you to do something. What do you want to go do?"

"Um, how about the library?" She asked. Spencer grinned from ear to ear.

"Yeah, that sounds great." He replied, then started to drive to the library.

Within a few minutes they were at the library, and Spencer was showing her where all the great books could be found. Both geniuses walked up and down each aisle, poring over the great selection. They finally sat down, both carrying a large stack of books. Paige began to read, but Spencer couldn't seem to concentrate. He'd been having that problem a lot lately.

Ever since the day he laid eyes on Paige, his mind had been in a whirl. She was pretty and mysterious, but at the same time, she was really smart, and she somehow understood him. He watched her read, her brow creased in concentration, her pretty pink tongue sticking out of her mouth a little. He blushed as she inhaled deeply.

"Paige," he squeaked. Her green eyes flicked up at him.

"Yeah?" She replied. He suddenly found himself at a loss for words.

"Nothing," he said. She smiled.

"Okay," Paige went back to her book. Reid tried to skim his eyes over the pages.

Then it was Paige who couldn't focus. She had been thinking about Reid ever since the day they met. He was cute, in a nerdy way, and she always thought it was funny when he got nervous and spouted statistics. He felt her eyes on him and looked up. She looked away, turning a pinkish color. He then realized that they were sitting close together on the sofa. He began to sweat.

"Paige?" He whispered. She looked up at him again with her big green eyes. That did it for him.

Spencer shifted uncomfortably and cleared his throat. He just stared at her for a few seconds, not knowing what to do. He expected her to get uncomfortable and look away, but she didn't. Her beautiful eyes remained fixated on him.

"Yes?" She finally whispered. Reid leaned in, and planted a soft, short kiss on her lips. She gasped.

"I'm sorry, Paige." He said, afraid he'd done something wrong. She touched her lips, staring at him.

"Again." She whispered.

"What?" He asked.

"Again, do that again." She said. He obeyed, leaning in to kiss her. She closed her eyes, and sighed. She kissed him back, softly at first. Then she wrapped her arms around his neck, dropping the book she had been reading. His hands found her lower back. She felt his tongue trace her lips. She pulled herself closer to him, and opened her mouth a little. His breath was hot in her mouth. She felt butterflies in her stomach. His tongue found its way into hers, caressing the roof of her mouth. She tangled her fingers through his hair. He groaned. Their tongues danced together for several moments, before they pulled away, breathless.

"Wow," she breathed. "What just happened?"

"I think we just made out in a library," he said.

"Um, now what?" Paige asked. "Do we just pretend it didn't happen? I mean I barely know you."

"Maybe that's best." He said. "I'm sorry, Paige."

"No, it's my fault. Um, can you take me home now?" She asked.

He could see the pain in her sparkling green eyes. He wanted to kiss her again, but he refrained.

"Yeah, come on." He said. They left the library, neither saying a word. They both got into the car.

"Huh, that's funny." Reid said as he started the engine.

"What's funny?" Paige asked.

"I'm almost out of gas. We'll have to stop and fill up, we can't make it to your house with the amount we have now." He said.

"Okay, so how's that funny?" Paige replied.

"I could've sworn I had a full tank yesterday morning." Reid told her.

"Maybe you just dreamed it. Anyways, let's go get gas so I can go home." She said. Reid nodded and drove to the nearest gas station.

As he was getting out to fill the gas tank, Paige sat in the car. Suddenly, someone came from the backseat and before she could scream, she was passed out.

Reid filled the tank, paid for the gas and got in the car. Before he could even turn the key, his world went black.
