Undercover Family

I would love to hear your opinions and look to working further on the story.

I do not own or have connection with the "Criminal Minds" program or its characters.

Chapter 8.

The week goes by slowly it seems to some and quickly to others, the children go to school and have to sit in classes they didn't even enjoy doing when they that age a long time ago. Although for a few of them, it is an interesting experience of that changes that have occurred in the schools and what is being taught at the ages today than they were twenty-five or forty years ago. Remember, David is in his fifties, it has been forty years since he was this age, he is finding it interesting but not as easy as he thought it would be. It seems that a lot of what they teach nowadays is quite different than what he remembers being taught at that age. Homework is harder than he thought.

Spencer on the other hand, is finding pre-school to be fun and is enjoying it. But he is finding it weird too, it seems a little girl in the class has taken a liking to him and wants to play with him all the time. He has his first crush on him and he's not really sure what to do about it. This is a little four-year-old girl and he doesn't want to hurt her, but he's not really four and can't give her what she wants without feeling that he's a pedophile. He puts people like that away; he doesn't want to be one. When the rest of the agents hear about his dilemma, instead of being sympathetic they begin to laugh.

"It's not funny and I don't want to hurt this little girl."

JJ says "You do need to be careful, a girl never forgets the first boy she likes."

Derek responds, "Oh, come on that's not true, I mean, you don't remember yours do you baby girl." He looks at Penelope.

Penelope: "well of course I do, his name was Michael Wood and he was adorable, we actually got it together in the back of the garage, where we had our first kiss. We were five years old and just kissing."

Prentiss: "My guy was Samuel Peterson and we were in Denmark at my father's office when we first met, I was attending the school where the foreign embassies send their children. His father worked for the Swedish embassy and we would kiss is in the playground behind the teeter totter set. It was a popular area."

JJ: "My first crush was Daniel Mickelson and we were in kindergarten, we just talked a lot and played a lot of doctor." The women laugh hysterically. They seem to not understand that Spencer just doesn't know what to do.

Hotch: "This is all nice and stuff, but you do need to be careful, you don't want to hurt a little girls ego by refusing her and what she wants."

Prentiss: "That's true and a little girl's ego is very fragile at this time. You could change her whole love map."

Spencer groans and everyone laughs at his little problem.

Momma speaks up that the little girl does not see Spencer as a big boy or an adult, but as another four-year-old. She will lose interest eventually, but she will also remember him as the boy she liked. He needs to tread carefully but to act like a four-year-old with her and not to think of himself as a pedophile. This is not the type of case for that.

Hotch: "Be that as it may, Spencer tread carefully with this little girl. Is there anymore news that we need to discuss for the week?" There was a bunch of negatives and so the Friday meeting breaks up. They go back to being mommas kids and play a game of cards. In fact they stay up a lot later than normal because they don't have to get up early in the morning to go to school or work.

Penelope got herself a job at the local ice cream parlor; she is supposedly going to save money before heading to college in the fall. The parlor is a popular place for kids to hang out and it has video games and computer games. She hopes that she can see the unsub or be able to protect the children.

Going to bed late that night or I should say early the next morning, nobody expects to be awakened by screams.
