Criminal Minds- Spencer Reid's Diary

Chapter 5- The Next Day

Chapter 5- The Next Day

The next morning when I woke up, I was convinced that what happened last night was a dream, but I knew it wasn't because when I looked in the mirror I had a lipstick kiss on my cheek. I rubbed my face vigorously trying to get the mark off. Eventually it came off. I got dressed and got into my car and raced to work because I wanted to talk to her on her own before she was ransacked by the rest of the team over what happened yesterday with Strauss.

As soon as I got in I checked to see who was in. Thankfully only Emily and Hotch were in, for the moment. So I grabbed my coffee and went to my desk in the bullpen. I sat down and started to write a note to Alison. I would leave it on her desk for her to find when she arrived. It read, " Hey Alison, I really enjoyed last night but I think we need to talk about what happened. Please find me on my own or call me into your office. Spencer" I went straight to her office and left it by her keyboard so she would see it as soon as she came in to turn on her computer.

As soon as I came out I went straight to Hotch's office to thank him for sending everyone home last night. He noticed I was kind of jumpy and asked me if everything was OK. I couldn't keep it in any more and I knew I could tell Hotch without him spreading it around like gossip. When I finished with Hotch I went back to my desk to wait for today's case.

Just as I got up to go get more coffee, Alison came in and we had an akward moment where all we said was 'Hi' and then 'See you later'. She went into her office and found the note I left her. She immediatly looked at me and called me into my office and then there was the akward conversation about it.

It wasn't as bad as I had imagined it would be. She asked me if I had feelings for her or whether it was just a drunken kiss. I admited that I did have feelings for her and that because I had feelings for her I was really akward around her yesterday. She also asked me whether I would like to start something or leave what happened last night alone and never talk about it again. I did think about leaving it but then decided that I would like to have something with her. I did accept the fact that it might never go anywhere but I would like to know if we could have something.

So we made dinner arragements for whenever we were finished on the case we were about to be briefed on.

Write again soon.
