The entirety of the next week things stayed pretty icy between the doctor and Agent Morgan. Derek didn't even come over to their house for the entire time. Everyone noticed this but kept quiet, not wanting to stick their noses in it to them. All the girls however did go to "Puck" who told them what had happened, well, somewhat. Enough that they got what had happened, but didn't know everything going on behind closed doors.
The Saturday after it had happened, them being icy each day, Doctor Reid was doing some extra work with Garcia. "Puck" was at home unpacking because they needed it to be done, but also because he had a date with Anderson later that day and he wanted to have time to get himself all ready.
He was bustling around in his gothic red and black dress with black wedge knee high boots. His Dean bracelet along with one that looked like uit but had a black and white checkered star on it were on his right wrist. A ring that liked like a hand grasping a stone was on his finger and a necklace that had red lace as the chain on it was around his neck, a small tear shaped pendant on the end of it rested on his sternum. A black backpack that said "Keep Calm and Kill Zombies" and had red slashed over top of it was waiting by the front door for when he left for his date.
Then he heard a loud knock on the door. It wasn't an angry knock, just a forceful one. The ex-prostitute was a bit confused because he hadn't been expecting anyone. He rushed to the door anyway and opened it with a smile.
His smile turned a bit confused as he saw that it was the one and only SSA Derek Morgan.
"Oh, hey Knight In Shining Armor… what 'chu doin' here?" He asked with a confused smile.
"Um, I actually came to talk to you." Morgan said nervously. "May I come in?"
"Sure." The teen said confused, standing away from the door to let the elder come in.
The Chicago native came in and immediately went into the living room.
"Wow… you guys haven't gotten much unpacking done." The adult said as he looked at the haphazardly connected TV and packed boxes sitting around the area.
"Nah, my cousins been too distraught over what happened with y'all. He kind of just comes home, eats what I cook him, then gets a bit drunk and cries." The teen said a bit sadly, looking at the ground.
He knew that Derek wouldn't exploit that knowledge… but he hoped it would give him the kick needed to heat them up again.
"Shit… are you serious?" Derek asked, looking up guiltily.
"Very. I've had to make a run to the liquor store three times this week… and flirt with the guy who worked there once because I forgot my ID card." Young Spencer sighed. "But never mind that. Why are you here?"
"I um… I came to ask… uh… w-would uh… can I um… what's the way to say this?" The adult fumbled.
"The clear and concise way because I have a date." Young Spencer said, raising an eyebrow.
He came off a bit snippy, but he actually wasn't angry. He was a bit agitated at Derek because of the ice between his cousin and the "Knight", but not angry at all.
"Ok, uh… I came here to ask your permission to ask Spencer to marry me." Derek finally managed to get out, breathing a bit unsteadily.
"Puck"s face went stony as soon as the words were out of the adults' mouth. He didn't speak for a bit, but when he did his tone was serious… dill sergeant serious.
"Give me your gun."
"Wh-what?" Derek asked utterly confused.
"Gun. Now." The teen commanded, holding his right hand open.
Morgan was a bit confused but took his gun out from the back of his pants and put it in the ex-prostitutes hand. Immediately young Spencer spun it so he was holding it right, turned off the safety and pointed it at Derek… right in his forehead.
"Whoa!" The adult exclaimed, holding his hands up in surrender as he took a step back.
"I'm keeping this until you say 'I Do'. And if you do anything, and I really really do mean anything, to hurt him, I will shoot you with your own gun. I know you think I'm just being a stupid, immature kid, but I am wolf. You try to hurt my family, or my mate… and I will end you, without a thought. So if you hurt my family, which is really only that one person, I will unload this entire gun into your skull. So, once you two have planned the wedding, written your vows, walked down the aisle, said your vows, and kissed, you get your gun back. And if you have a case before that happens, too fucking bad. You can borrow one of Cute Guy That Doesn't Smile's. Understood?" Younger Reid asked, face still serious.
"Y-yes." Morgan smiled, just as serious.
"Good." The teen smiled as he turned the safety back on.
He walked over to his backpack and put it in the front pocket.
"So, you thought about how you're gunna do it?" He asked as he zipped it back up.
"Nope… not yet… it has to be something awesome though."
"That it does… especially since y'alls fight."
Morgan sighed and nodded as he looked down.
"Don't be all sad, you'll make up for it… you just have to think of the perfect way." The teen shook his head as he smiled. "Oh, hey, I have a video that you should see… it might give you an idea."
Spencer took his IPod out of his pocket and took a few minutes to pull up the video online. Then he handed it to Derek and smiled as the adult began watching.
"You want me to use a lesbian Valentine's Day video to propose?" The BAU agent chuckled.
"It's adorable, just watch." Younger Reid rolled his eyes as he dusted off his skirt.
Then his phone buzzed and he took it out from his boots.
"Shit." He muttered as he quickly typed back. "I gotta go I'm late for my date, make sure to lock up before you leave." He said as he put his phone back in his boot. "And uh… I wouldn't watch any other videos on my IPod if I were you." He said a bit warily as he pulled his backpack onto his shoulder.
With that he gave a wave and left the house quickly. Derek didn't let himself think about what else might be on the IPod just watched and got an amazing idea.

The video is this - /watch?v=3IY-XZU_kFg with Youtube in front of it. (Sorry it won't let me put a link.)
Let's see if y'all can guess how he's going to do it… the one who guesses closed to it (details included) will get a special shout out in the chapter where Derek actually does go through with his plan. =)
