"Babe, you're obsessing over this."

"No, I'm not." you say back.

"Yeah sweets, you are."

"Guys, I'm not obsessing. I just want to know what he's hiding. I told him I would find out and that's what I'm going to do." You tell your friends.

"Y/N you sound like a stalker." your friend Candy chuckles. "Yeah, you do." Jessa agrees. "Look, he got all pale when I asked him. And if he's embarrassed by the answer so much, I can use it as blackmail and get him to do stuff I don't want to do at work." It was very basic logic you were using, and you don't understand why your friends don't get it. Sure, maybe going all Penelope Garcia on him is a little much, but if there is a chance you can get out of talking to the families on cases you will find out how Reid got sick.

"Look he's great at hiding how he's feeling and when something is bothering him no one knows because he has great control of his micro expressions. But when I asked him how he got sick his face went paler than usual. Now yes, maybe going through his bank statements is a bit much, but I really hate talking to the families and if I can avoid that by figuring out if Reid is like, I don't know, having an affair with a middle-aged lady. Then that is what I must do. Oh my God, what if Reid has a sugar mama? That would be hilarious. Also, now I kind of want one too."

Your friends look at each other concerned with what you just told them and then Cynthia speaks up. "Y/N, are you jealous?"

You stop what you're doing on your computer and look up at them in complete shock. "Am I what?"

"Jealous. Look, we know you say you hate him, but do you really? Or do you just want to do the dirty with him?" Candy asks. "Why does everyone keep asking me that? I know I have questionable taste in men, but seriously Reid out of all the people in this world I could fuck, you think I'd choose Reid?" It's really starting to get on your nerves that people think that either you and Reid are dating or that you want it to happen. You realized a long time ago that you have bad taste in men, you can admit it, you're not proud of it but what can you do, but seriously? Reid?

"Y/N, look, this thing with you and Reid has been going on for years and you know what? I'm tired of hearing about what a big asshole he is. Guess what Y/N, what you two do is not bickering or not getting along, it's denying your sexual tension. So, man up! Go to Reid's house! And fuck each other until this stupid bickering stops!" Jessa shouts.

You can't believe this.

She just told you to go fuck Reid.

"Wha-" You can't even form a sentence you're in so much shock. You look at Cynthia and Candy who seem to be in as much shock as you are. You then look back at Jessa who says, "Sorry, Y/N, you know I love you. But you and this guy obviously have something going on. And from what Penelope has been texting the team seems to think so too."

"Hold up. Back up. You talk to Penny?" "Ya, remember we met her, JJ, and Emily when we went to that bar." Cynthia says. To be honest you had completely forgotten about that, but you just dumbly nodded your head at her in agreement.

You turned to Jessa and said, "Look I don't know what the hell the team thinks is happening, but Reid and I are not together, nor will we ever be together. Yes, I'm digging into his life, but it's not a big deal, he's done it to me too. I don't know how he did it because he can't even use a computer, but he did. We aren't 'denying sexual tension between us' as you so nicely put it. We just literally don't like each other. So please, for the love of God, stop trying to get me to fuck Reid and help me dig up dirt on him so that I don't have to talk to victims' families." the words came out of your mouth so fast you almost didn't think you said them.

They all looked at each other and nodded. They sat around you, and you told them your game plan. If this didn't work at least you and your friends got to have a laugh playing detective that night. 

A/N: Shortest chapter I wrote I think. Thus far on my journey to edit this story it is. But once again hope you've enjoyed. See you next chapter.
