Chapter 6

Spencer couldn't help but feel a tinge of nervousness as he stepped up into Derek's truck. Now that he was feeling better and wasn't foggy brained because of his sickness, 'butterflies' started to flutter in his stomach. Although he knew the biological cause of those feelings, he wasn't wanting to think about his very real feelings for the man beside him in the driver's seat. A sigh escaped his lips as he placed his hands in his lap.

"How are ya?" Derek asked Spencer.

"What do you mean?" Spencer asked.

"Like, how's life? Are you acting your age?" Derek said, clarifying while teasing him simultaneously.

"Not really. It's hard to act my literal age when mentally I'm a lot older." Spencer said.

"Ah, kid, you need to loosen up, be with people, get drunk off your ass, live life-"

"I am living life." Spencer said.

"To the fullest?"

"That's situational for each person. Your definition of living life to the fullest is different than mine. You enjoy the party scene, taking women home and fulfilling your sexual needs and desires, living the life of an available bachelor. I like learning, exercising my brain, spending time with J.J., Will, and Henry. I like being in a comfortable and secure environment. I don't like putting myself in danger outside of work."

"You saying I live a risky life?"

"I'm saying if you sleep with the wrong woman who turns out be a psychopath, than you could be a victim we analyze over." Spencer said, bluntly.

"Who says I only sleep with women?" Derek said, a hint of teasing.

Spencer turned toward him, the genius was actually speechless.

"It's rare for an Alpha male to be bisexual. They like the dominance and power-complex they have over a woman. Men aren't likely to subject themselves to that…most of the time." Spencer stuttered out.

"I guess you can call me rare then." He said, flashing a charming smile at spencer.

"Derek…did you just come out to me?" Spencer asked.

"I think I did, Spencer."

"Okay."
