Criminal Minds- Spencer Reid's Diary

Chapter 3- Akwardness

. Chapter 3- Akwardness

So we finished all of our Psych Evals at the prison and Alison said we didn't have to leave for another hour and that she was going to get some food with Peter, her father, and Adam, her brother, then they were going to a hospital to visit a family friend and asked if I would like to meet her. They said she was really nice and always liked meeting new people. So I said sure. I didn't have anything to do. So we went to this place called Chez Robert and the food was amazing. I only had a salad and some chicken but they had amazing food that they give to you to bring home. I got a big apple pie and 6 chocolate cakes in the shape of swans wrapped in tinfoil. It was brilliant. I offered to pay my part of the bill but Peter said this was his treat and I tried arguing but he just walked up and played and wouldn't tell me how much my part was so we just went to the hospital where their family friend was.

I was very shocked when we got there because it was a mental facility and it was the exact place I had my mother admitted when I was 18. I felt really bad now because instead of going for lunch I should have come straight here. I told Alison I also had a friend here and told her I would meet her outside in 30 mins. And so I went inside while she was having a discussion about the 3-body theory with her brother and father in the car. When I got inside I just gave my name and went straight to where my mother was today. She was so pleased to see me, and I have to admit it was nice to see her again because I usually just write her a letter.

I had been sitting with her for 5 mins when Alison, Peter and Adam walked in and started walking over to my mother. She noticed them and called them over. This was the 'Family Friend' they were coming to see. I found that a little bit akward when I had to explain that this was my mother. I asked how everyone knew everyone. Alison said Peter used to be a doctor here and that she and her brother would come down everyday to spend time with the patients and they really got along with my mother that they visit her everytime they are in Nevada. I felt really guilty because they had probably seen my mother more than me in the past 6 months.

We spent about 30 mins there and then I announced the Jet would be leaving soon and we said our goodbye's and left. When we got to the jet I just boarded in silence without saying anyhting to her that could make the journey any more akward than necessary. I figured I needed something to do so I got my marble chess set out of the back room and had intentions on playing myself. I had just set up when Alison came over and asked if she could play. She did something with her eyes and I just said yes. I don't know what she did but she knocked me breathless and I said yes without thinking. I would have said yes anyway but I think I said it too fast and she seemed a little freaked out.

She was brilliant and she beat me 20 times out of the 50 games we played. The Pilot said we were about to land so I quickly put everything away and sat back down. Alison then said she had fun today and asked me if I wanted to go out for a drink after work. I said of course. I would pretty much anything to spend more time with her. She really is amazing and really pretty.

I suggeseted that we not mention to Morgan or anyone else that we were going out because they would turn it into a drinking game and I really wasn't in the mood to get really drunk. She agreed and we said we would talk to Hotch and get him to send everyone else home then we would go out.

Write again soon to tell you how our drinks went.
