Doctor Reid was vaguely aware of some sort of noise and motion. He quickly noticed that the motion was the bed moving up and down. Then he noticed that the sound was his cousin saying;

"Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!"

"Spencer." The genius groaned, trying to pull the blankets up over his face.

"I'm booooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooore d!" The teen held out the "o" while he yanked the blanket down.

Reid heard the strong agent he was sharing the room with chuckle from somewhere farther away in the room.

"Derek! Help me!" The intellect whined, still fighting for the blanket.

"You're on your own Pretty Boy. I woke up when he started jumping." Morgan chuckled.

"How long have you been jumping?" The elder Spencer asked the younger.

"Twenty, twenty five minutes." The teen shrugged, still jumping up and down.

"And you haven't stopped why?"

"You're not awake yet."

"Ugh! Fine!"

Spencer groaned loudly and sat up. His cousin looked at him with a giant smile, finally stopping his jumping.

"What time is it?" The genius asked.

"About five thirty." The teen smiled.

"You woke me up at five thirty in the morning?!"

The kid just smiled again.

"You are so buying me a coffee." The elder glared at him.

"Already made." Morgan smiled, walking forwards as he held out a steaming cup of coffee.

"Naw, Knight in Shining Armor is so shiny today." "Puck" smiled, getting off the bed.

The teen was already dressed, making the adult wonder just how long he had actually been awake. The teen was dressed from head to toe in black. It was actually one of the more conservative things he had worn.

A black long sleeve shirt with little slits in the upper part of the sleeves didn't hug his body the way his clothes normally do. Neither did his black jeans. He was wearing black boots that went up a small part of his lower leg. A black bow bracelet was on his right wrist. It matched the black bow that was on his black double chain necklace.

Reid took the coffee, knowing there was a reason for the all black clothes, but not remembering what.

"I'm gunna go take a shower." Derek chuckled.

"You take a lot of showers. If I didn't know any better, I would say you were over compensating for something." Young Spencer told him, going to make his own cup of coffee.

"Maybe I just need to get away from you two."

"Why would you want to a thing like that? We're FABULOUS!" The teen said like it was the most obvious thing on the planet.

Morgan chuckled and went into the bathroom. As soon as the shower started, "Puck" turned to his cousin.

"You know what today is, right?" He asked in a slightly sad and very serious tone.

The tone was what reminded him of the reason for the black clothes.

"Oh, crap, yea, I remember. You gunna go there then?"

"I kinda need a ride. I couldn't sleep for much longer after midnight, I think my body knows. We could go quickly now while he's in the bathroom, I really don't feel like explaining it to anyone. Beautiful just thinks I'm walking around the town today, please tell everyone else that."

"Of course Spencer, I completely understand. Let me get on a new shirt and we'll go."

The doctor had slept in his clothes, so he just needed to change his shirt and he would be ready for the day. He went to his suitcase and pulled out a new shirt. He changed shirts, then turned to look at his cousin. The teen was just getting on a black leather jacket.

"It's a dash chilly out." The younger shrugged.

"Derek, Spencer and I need to do something real fast, I'll be back soon." The genius called through the bathroom door.

"Ok!" The strong agent called back.

The duo walked out the door.

"Are you sure you're going to be alright?" Reid asked as he looked over at his cousin.

"I'll be fine; I do it three times every year." The teen said in the same sad but serious tone as before.

They both looked over at the place they were stopped next to. It really hadn't changed in almost two years

"Call me if you need anything, and when you want to be picked up." The adult said, not liking that he was going to be leaving his cousin alone in a place like the one they were next to.

"I will, promise Spencer. Go work on your case; leave me to what I need to do."

They shared a long look, having ten million conversations in only a matter of seconds.

"Call me… every hour." Reid said in a pleading tone.

"I'll text." "Puck" said in tone of pure understanding.

With that the youth went to get out of the car.

"Oh, hey, before I forget, why was your camera on and turned towards the beds?" The doctor asked.

"Oh, I film myself while I sleep to see how I really am when I sleep."

"Oh, that makes a lot of sense. Ok, well… see you."

"It's just for a few hours." The teen assured.

With that he got out of the car and went to the place he knew he needed to be. His cousin sighed, not liking it, but knowing it had to be.

By the time Reid got back to the hotel, Derek was already dried and dressed.

"Hey, so where did you guys go? … and where is Spencer?" The strong agent asked as he pulled on his shoes.

"Um, he wanted to check out the town, he's gunna be wandering for a while."

"How long is a while?"

"Uh, just a really really long time." Reid said automatically, then his face went to slight shame. "Sorry, Spencer's made me watch the Twilight parody by EvilIguanaProductions a million times; it's kind of stuck in my brain now."

"No big deal Pretty Boy, it's all good."

They went into silence then, neither knowing what to say.

"Hey, um, can we talk about last night?" Spencer asked, not looking at his friend.

"Sure thing." Derek said, immediately feeling nervous.

"So, you know we were about to kiss, right?"

"Yea."

"Any thoughts on that?"

"Only if you do."

Both were terrified of what the other was going to say, it could go so many different ways, and that scared them a little bit.

"How about we both say it at the same time?" Reid suggested, taking in a deep breath.

"Ok, on three." Morgan nodded, also taking a deep breath.

"One." Spencer nodded, walking forward a bit so he was in front of his friend.

"Two." Derek said.

"Three." They said together. "I really liked it and would not mind if we did kiss."

They both looked at each other, having heard two of the same thing.

"Really?" The genius asked.

The stud nodded, ridiculously goofy smile on his face.

"If we kissed, you'd be fine?" Spencer asked, to clarify.

"I was ridiculously excited last night when you started leaning towards me when I was leaning towards you. It would be awesome to kiss you." Morgan said in a breathy voice, smile still on his face.

Reid smiled hugely before getting a devious look on his face. He ran forward and glomped Derek onto the bed. The intellect was straddling his waist and their chests were pressed together. Doctor Reid looked down at the man beneath him, they were sharing a smile. The genius began leaning down, going to connect their lips once and for all.

Then there was banging on the door to their hotel room. It scared them, making Spencer jump off his crush.

"Morgan, Reids, we're going to the precinct now. You better be ready." Their leader said in a commanding tone from the other side of the door.

"To be continued?" Morgan asked the intellect hopefully.

"You can bet on it." Spencer sighed, shaking his head as he went to the door.

He opened it and gave Hotch a slightly annoyed smile.

"Spencer isn't going to be with us today, he's wandering around the town." The elder Reid told him.

"Alright, but we still need to get to the precinct, are you both ready."

"As we'll ever be." Derek sighed, coming to the door as well.

He had a slightly annoyed tone as well as a disappointed look on his face. Aaron looked between them confused. He didn't know what had occurred… but he was fairly certain he didn't want to either.

You all must hate me now. Two almost kisses in two chapters… hope you all enjoy the almost-ness of it all. =)
