A/N- Hey guys! Sorry it's been so long, but school started and I have had zero time to write. I am currently on thanksgiving break, which is why you're getting a chapter :P I'm thinking of starting a drabble series- a drabble for each episode (in order) that could range anywhere from a paragraph to a one-shot. What do you think? And prompts are welcome (PLEASE! I HAVE NO INSPIRATION). Sorry for the long author's note:) Please Read and Review!
It was just your average day at the BAU and they didn't have a case when a woman came in.
"Is there a doctor Spencer Reid here?" the woman asked Garcia, who had just happened to be walking past at the time.
"Uh-yes. Yes there is. Do you need him?" Garcia asked the woman, somewhat surprised.
"Please, if he's not too busy," the woman responded with a nod of her head.
Garcia nodded and walked briskly to Reid's desk. "Spencer, you have a woman waiting by the elevators asking for you," Garcia said with slight confusion.
"Who is it?" Reid asked, his face scrunched up in thought.
"I have no idea," Garcia replied. Spencer got up and followed Penelope to the elevators. As soon as he saw the face, something clicked in his mind.
"I-we've met before!" he said excitedly, before faltering. "I can't seem to remember where though, I'm sorry…" his voice trailed off apologetically.
She smiled like she knew he wouldn't remember her. "We met in a casino in Las Vegas. You were playing the slot machines and told me I should stop smoking. I was a-uh- hooker back then. You gave me the 2k that you won," she replied sheepishly.
"Oh, yeah I remember that. So what are you doing here? Did you stop smoking?" Reid asked curiously.
She laughed a little, "Yeah I managed to quit it. It took a lot though. Actually, Doctor, I came here to thank you. The two thousand dollars you gave me actually got me off the streets. You probably saved my life," she told him.
"Wow… I-you're welcome. What are you doing now?" Reid asked her.
"I got a job as a waitress. A few years later, now I'm managing the place," the woman replied with a smile.
"Wow, that's really great," Reid said smiling. "I never thought I'd see you again, let alone hear how well you were doing," Reid admitted.
"Well Doctor, 2k goes a long way when you've lived on the streets long enough," she told him.
"Yeah-I never did catch your name?" he asked.
"Samantha. Samantha Adams," she told him.
"Well Samantha, it's good to hear from you," Reid told her, in a subtle attempt to end the conversation.
"Actually, I was wondering if you wanted to go out for drinks sometime?" Samantha asked.
Penelope, who had quietly been watching the exchange, looked wide eyed at Reid to see how he would respond.
"I-I'm kind of busy with work and stuff, but uh- thanks for the offer," Reid replied.
Samantha sighed, "I kind of figured that would be your answer but it was worth a shot."
"I'm sorry," Reid replied, glancing away.
Samantha nodded and turned back towards the elevators, while Garcia and Reid made their way back into the bullpen, Reid's face bright red.
"You just got asked out by an ex-hooker!" Garcia said. Laughing at Reid.
"Don't tell Morgan," Reid begged.
"Oh, honey you know I can't do that," Garcia said with a laugh.
"Can't do what?" JJ, who had come up behind them, asked.
"Not tell you all that Reid just got asked out by an ex-hooker," Garcia said.
JJ's face broke into a huge grin, "You're kidding?"
"Nope," Garcia said.
"Okay, okay. You told JJ, just don't tell Morgan. I'll never hear the end of it."
"Hear the end of what?" Morgan asked.
Needless to say, the day became known as the day the ex-hooker asked Reid out.
