The Secret Social Life of Dr. Spencer Reid Chapter 16
…
"I didn't think Reid ever had it in him to fight." Morgan told the girls. The conversation topic had been brought up when JJ told them about it – Kathryn had told her and so the blonde thought it was her duty to share it with the remainder of the team. Saves them asking later.
"What just cos now he doesn't need you to take care of him." Emily laughed, and laughed harder when her partner pouted.
"One things for sure, they sure know how to pick 'em." Garcia concluded, with a nod. They all had to agree with that. "Oh, oh, did they spend the whole weekend together?" She asked JJ. They may as well get to know the down low whilst they were talking about it.
"Yeah. Just the two of them. And, before you ask, they are on good terms again. Very good terms." JJ winked.
"Aww that's so cute. He gets laid more than Morgan, you must be devastated." Emily smugly stated, turning to the man and raising her eyebrow. The two blondes also turned to look at him, waiting for his answer.
"Hey. Woah. It doesn't count if it's with the same girl." He defended his pride. No, he just wouldn't accept that pretty boy may have gotten laid more often than him. The trio of women laughed at him. He caught the words 'jealous' and 'cute' but tuned them out, getting on with his paperwork. He did not like where the conversation was headed, and he didn't like the idea of him being beaten at his own game. Also, he would never understand a woman's gossip, why they did it dumfounded him, he was a profiler and could get into the heads of some of the worst criminals, but a woman. They were just all round confusing; even for him.
"So, do you think they're officially together now?" Pen asked, it was a question that they all wanted to know but it hadn't been confirmed by either of them. And it'd be impossible to tell considering they acted like a couple before, they couldn't act more couple-y that that surely.
"I have no idea. She didn't say anything, at that point Spence came and took the phone off her, calling her a gossip and telling her to get ready." Jennifer informed the women.
"For?" Emily pushed. She was getting a little impatient with her best friend, why couldn't she just tell them everything she knew instead of making them ask.
"I have no idea. He refused to tell me and she didn't mention it. That's all I know. That and that they agreed to tell each other before they dated anyone else." She didn't realise what she said until it came out of her mouth. Each of the girls sighed in disappointment and annoyance. They should just date. It's not exactly difficult, they know how they feel about each other.
"They need to stop messing around and get down to it. This waiting game is like having to find a time that us girls are able to go shopping; stressful and frustrating." The tech analyst complained, the other pair nodding in agreement.
"Speak of the devils." Prentiss mused, watching as the pair walked in together. They wasted no time walking over to the girls and Morgan.
"Hey." Kathryn smiled, Spencer waving.
"Hi." Pen mumbled, clearly sulking. The young brunette raised her left eyebrow in question.
"She is really desperate to know if the pair of you are dating." Emily caught them up to speed. It was fairly obvious that all of them; including Morgan, were insistent on knowing.
"Hmm. Interesting." Spencer said. "Trouble, I think I'll let you explain. I don't want to be on the receiving end of three angry women, they can be ruthless and scary. That and I know you girls enjoy gossip." The genius winked and smirked before retreating to replenish his now empty coffee cup.
"You're not!" Garcia almost shouted in exasperation. All the girls immediately shushed her and glared at Derek when he laughed. Needless to say, that quickly shut him up.
"He was just being his usual cocky self. We are." She couldn't help but smile.
"Details. Now." Pen demanded, her face lighting up like a child on her birthday.
"Garcia, we're in the middle of work, slacking. We'll talk about it later. You're coming out with us tonight for dinner. We want, no need, to know." Emily announced.
"Hotch is looking over, we need to get to work." JJ added before they all scurried off to start on their paperwork.
Throughout the day, the girls glanced at the couple, as Emily, Derek, Spencer and Kathryn laughed and joked and teased.
…
The girls had decided to go to Garcia's place in the end and order take-out. It was better to talk and gossip when it was just them so no-one could overhear. Morgan had decided to take Spencer out that night too, the poor younger man would probably return home scarred for life.
Garcia walked in with some plates for the pizza and some other little snacks. They had already got their drinks and got themselves comfortable. "Ok, spill." Prentiss inquired, beating the other girls to it. All the woman in question did was smirk at the eagerness of the trio before biting into her pizza.
"Well. Tell us." JJ coaxed. They had practically been begging for the last ten minutes and she refused to say anything.
"Ok. Ok. What d'yah wanna know?" Damn her conscience. The smile that crossed their faces was almost terrifying. Why had she agreed to this? What had she gotten herself in to?
"How's the sex?" Jennifer asked. Her asking shocked everyone, it was something everyone expected from Garcia, not JJ. The woman just shrugged at the surprised looks.
"He's a genius, and very creative. He is so proficient that I would beg for it if I had to. He does not, ever, disappoint." She smiled, as the girls stared in disbelief.
"No way. Spencer. Spencer Reid." Emily had to check that they were talking about the same person, even with the change they'd seen in him, she still just couldn't imagine it.
"Try it for yourself and then say that. He is very adept." She smiled at some of her memories with him. After a number of minutes, the women managed to compose themselves.
"I don't think I'll ever be able to look at him the same way." JJ mused, to no-one in particular. Emily and Garcia mumbled their agreements.
"Ok. Well now we know how well equipped and er, fantastic he is in bed, how did you meet?" Prentiss asked in an attempt to stop the awkward silence that followed that recent discovery. It was hard enough to stop seeing him as a virgin yet alone having been with so many women, and now this. It was truly and utterly shocking.
Kathryn smiled sweetly and finished another slice of pizza. "I was five and he was six. It was summer so a pretty warm day. I was sitting on the grass making a daisy chain when he came over and asked what I was doing. After I'd explained it, he decided that he wanted to try it and so I began to teach him. That's when I noticed that something was tickling my shoulder, there was this really big spider there and I screamed, Spencer saved me and got it off. He then hugged me." The women smiled and stated how cute it was. "Yeah that part was. Unfortunately, a friend of my father's, Riley Sanderson, walked by and heard me scream then Spence hugging me and got the wrong idea. He ran over and dragged him off me and started shouting. This caused other people to come out and see what the problem was. We both tried to explain but he wouldn't let us so I just ran up to Spencer and hugged him, we nearly toppled over." She gave a light laugh at that before continuing, "needless to say, it was all eventually sorted out and we became best friends. He managed to learn how to make a daisy chain and made me a bracelet out of them."
"What about your first kiss, and when you two decided to sleep together?" Garcia asked, eager to know everything about the pair.
"Our first kiss was when we were twelve. We were in my bedroom and were just laughing and talking, we decided to watch a movie and so I lay next to him and he put his arm around me. Also not unusual. Then partway through the movie I looked up at him and we kissed. Well, I kissed him and then he didn't respond so I went to get up but he pulled me back down and kissed me. When we were thirteen he had had a rough day at school, as usual, and we were sitting there in his bedroom talking about it. He was upset and I was comforting him. I kissed his forehead and told him that I loved him and then he kissed me and we had sex." She then laughed slightly when she was told by them that it was cute. "Yeah, well, it wasn't so cute the next morning when his mum found us. We weren't allowed out of her sight together for a year after that." The women laughed, very loudly at that statement.
The questions continued throughout the night before it was twelve and they really had to leave; they had to be in work by 8.30 the next morning.
…
It was ten the next morning when Rossi entered Hotch's office and sat down opposite him.
"Ever heard of knocking?" Hotch asked lightly without looking up at his friend.
Rossi smirked. "I have, I'm just not familiar with the concept." They both laughed before Hotch motioned for him to continue. "So I'm sure you're aware that Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum out there are dating?"
Hotch raised his brown slightly. "Yes. What's your point Dave?" The older man rolled his eyes and sighed.
"Well, you're not planning to kick either of them off the team are you? And you're not going to treat them differently, more harshly shall we say?" His friend frowned deeper at these questions. He may be the Unit Chief but that doesn't mean he can't be trusted.
"Dave." The boss started, "they will stay on the team and I will only call them up on their behaviour if it changes for the worse. I'm happy for them and am not about to destroy that. They're happy right now, I just hope that it lasts because if they have a bad break-up then we'll have a serious problem. Rossi couldn't help but agree there as they watched Spencer and Kathryn from Hotch's office, both hoping that they have a happy ending.
