Once more I do not own Harry Potter or Criminal Minds. I know these first few chapters have been slow but I promise it will get better. So I post when I get chapters written out. This means that sometimes you might get lucky and have several chapters in one day or I might not post for a while. I have a very busy life so when I have the time and can do it I will be writing.
Spencer Reid had just finished a lecture at Georgetown University and had made his way back to his job at the BAU. He was a young man of 26 years old. He had brown eyes and his dark blonde hair was shaggy around his baby face.
Morgan often called him Shaggy when he would grow out his hair, but Spencer liked it like that. Today's lecture at Georgetown was not a usual occurrence. He spoke to a class about the use of mathematics and geographical profiling. While some of the students seemed to not care at all Spencer saw there were a few that were genuinely interested about the subject.
As Spencer rode the elevator up to his desk he went over the things he had to do still today. He needed to write to his mother still today and Spencer was wondering how she would like the news of him being a guest lecturer.
Diana Reid was a paranoid schizophrenic who had been living in a sanatorium since Spencer was 18 years old. She was doing much better thanks to her medications and Spencer was getting reports from the doctors that she had not had a major episode in months.
Spencer wrote to her everyday because he still felt guilty about not being able to take care of her.
The elevator stopped and Spencer walked out and to the doors of the BAU. He was stopped short by the sight of a small women with chocolate hair in curls that was sitting at a desk across from his. He could see she was reading a book. Confused Spencer saw Morgan standing by the stairs hanging up his cell phone.
"Hey Morgan" he said walking over to greet his friend "Who is that over there?"
"That's our new team member Hermione Granger. Remember Hotch telling us about that a new member was coming in fresh from the academy? Well that's her. Come on I'll introduce you"
The two men walked over the the desk where Hermione was sitting reading. A quick look over her shoulder told Spencer that she was reading 'The Iliad'. Spencer did not find many people in his associations that would read a work like this and what's more it was in the original Greek.
"Hermione?" Morgan had put his hand on her shoulder to get her attention.
Hermione jumped as she spun around. "Oh.. I am sorry I was just reading and I guess I got lost in the book."
"That's the Iliad in Greek. Are you reading it for something special?" asked Spencer.
"Oh no I just love this story. I have read it several times but I find reading it in the original language a little more soothing." As Hermione spoke she returned a red and gold ribbon into the book and closed it shut looking at the two men. "I'm Hermione Granger. It is nice to meet you."
"Don't let the little Brit fool you Reid." Morgan said with a smile on his face " She is a doctor just like you."
"Oh what did you get your degree in?" Spencer asked not taking his eyes off of the young women in front of him.
"Well I actually have 2. I have a PhD in Psychology as well as Criminal justice and 2 bachelor's one in occult religions and ruituals, one in philosophy as well as an associates degree in forensic sciences" Hermione stated. She could feel her cheeks burning with a raising blush. She knew Spencer Reid was smarter then her. After all he had attended college at the age of 12!
"Wow that's a lot. What are you doing here if you have all that?" Spencer was impressed here was a women who obviously was brilliant and good looking. From what he saw she could have any job in the world.
"Well I could ask you the same thing Dr. Reid. In truth I was recruited before I had even graduated from Cambridge. I wanted to do something that would allow me to make a difference as well as keep learning. It just happened that this job did all of that and more."
As Hermione and Reid continued talking Morgan walked away. As much as he liked Reid and was starting to like Hermione he did not want to sit there and talk about learning more.
Morgan saw Emily at her desk so he walked over to her and smiled as he leaned against her desk.
"Isn't that cute? Little genius crush starting before our very eyes."
Emily looked over to the 2 members of their team who seemed to be in a heated discussion over something based on Reid flying arms and Hermione's body language.
"Man if those two get together and have children I think the world will be in trouble of being taken over" Emily said with a smile on her face. She and Morgan both knew that Reid had a hard time talking to women. While he was smart he lacked the confidence in himself to help him.
"Granger if you are ready, I can take you down to get your ID now." Hotch's voice broke through the multiple conversations taking place.
"Sure thing." Hermione said grabbing her bag. She put her book back into the bag and throw it over her shoulder as she turned to join Hotchner at the doors.
Reid walked over to Emily and Morgan after Hermione left.
"So boy genius how do you like the female you?" Morgan asked with a small glance to Emily.
" She is very smart and seems alright. She wants to learn but at the same time know more then enough information to do the job." Spencer stated. His mind was still little boggled at the newest team member. Everyone on the team was smart, you could not do this job with out being so, however Hermione seemed to surpass everyone but him. And even that was questionable.
"Yeah I think she will do just fine, and it will be nice to not be out numbered by you boys when we are out in the field." Emily said.
"Oh don't lie Prentiss you know you love it" Morgan replied with his smile firmly in place.
Emily laughed an answered "Yeah just like I love my yearly physical. Come on we have work to do Casanova."
What are you guys thinking so far? I will generally stay in 3rd person point of view and follow mostly Hermione however sometimes I will switch it up. Leave me some review love please and thank you! ! ! :)
