Red~ Spencer Reid

Part 10

I waited patiently on the sidewalk for Penelope to come pick me up. Rossi had invited us for dinner at his house, sorry mansion. It had become a recent thing for the team to get together at Rossi's for dinner and enjoy some homemade italian cuisine made by Rossi himself.

Penelope pulled up in her orange convertible with a huge smile spread across her face.

"Hey Y/n" She said excitedly.

"Hey Pen" I chuckled as I hopped in the passenger seat.

"Thanks for driving me" I said.

"Absolutely no worries hun" She smiled as she drove off.

The sun was starting to seat and as we drove through the city the bright orange light crept through buildings. It looked suprisingly somewhat peaceful.

"I wonder what Rossi will be making us" Penelope said excitedly, tapping her fingers on the steering wheel.

"Most likely some pasta dish" I chuckled .

"Ah yes our Italian stallion does make a delicious pasta" Penelope said with a small smirk.

"Italian stallion?" I laughed loudly.

"Oh hush" Penelope chuckled shaking her head.

"Does he know you call him that" I said holding back my laughter.

"No and you are not to tell hin Y/n" Penelope said looking at me seriously.

"Fine I'll keep it between us" I said biting back another laughing fit.

Penelope sighed in relief and turned her attention back to the road. We reached Rossi's gate and he buzzed us in. The giant metal gates swinging olen to reveal his giant house.

"This house calls me poor in about twenty different ways" Penelope muttered.

"Me too" I chuckled lightly.

Penelope parked the car and we climbed up walking up the stairs to Rossi's house. The door swung open and Rossi was wearing his apron holding a glass of wine.

"So glad you could make it" Rossi smiled letting the two of us in.

"This smells amazing" I said to him.

"Of course nothing but the best for my team" Rossi smiled.

He lead us into the living room where, Hotch, Derek, Emily, JJ and Spencer were sitting.

"Hey babygirls" Derek chuckled.

"Well hello my chocolate thunder" Penelope replied with a smirk causing everyone to roll there eyes.

"Seriously you two?" Emily said.

Derek simply smirked and shrugged his shoulders. Penelope sat down next to Derek and I took the only seat available which was next to Spencer. Which I can imagine is no coincidence.

"Hey" Spencer said.

"Hey" I replied with a small smile.

After about half an hour of chatting dinner was ready and we entered Rossi's dining room which was set up like the royals were dining.

"This looks amazing Dave" Hotch said as the plate of spaghetti giving the smallest of smiles.

We all dug in and it was delicious. Many laughs and stories were shared that night. After dinner we were all relaxing in Rossi's living room.

"No every single time we interview at a club Morgan gets at least twelve girls numbers" Spencer said.

"No I do not" Derek laughed.

"Don't deny it Derek, when we had to interview that strip club last month I swear at least ten of the dancers gave you there numbers" I chuckled.

"I didn't keep any of them though" Derek said in a "matter of fact" tone.

"Because the only number he needs is mine" Garcia teased.

"Exactly all I need is my babygirls number" Derek said jokingly draping his arm over Penelope's shoulder.

"So JJ how's you and Will?" I smirked at her and her face went red.

"Really good he's been awesome with Henry" She smiled.

"Any other details you could give us?" Penelope winked and everyone groaned.

"Penelope I'm not going to blab about my sex life with Will with you guys" JJ laughed, and everyone laughed along too.

After a while everything died down. We had all drank way too much to drive home and Rossi being the great host that he is didn't want us taking ubers or taxi's at this time of night.

I guess after all the cases we've had were the unsub has been a taxi driver who murders there passengers has put us all off taxi's.

"There may not be enough rooms so some of you may have to share" Rossi said, his voice slurred slightly due to the effects of alcohol.

We all murmured our replies a little to tipsy to give a proper goodnight. I headed up the stairs following behind the rest of the team, almost stumbling on the second step.

"Y/n, Spencer you two should room together" Derek smirked.

Spencer's face went red and he nervously scratched the back of his neck. He was the most sober one out of us all opting to not drink.

"Some of us will have to share, I mean I'm sharing Hotch" Emily said.

"I mean I don't really mind" I said awkwardly looking at Spencer for an answer.

"Yeah I don't mind" Spencer replied.

Spencer opened the door and headed into one of the spare rooms, I followed but before I could close the door behind me Derek stopped me.

"Don't have too much fun I have the room right next to yours and I actually want to get some rest" Derek whispered a smirk on his face.

"Ew Derek" I groaned slapping his shoulder as he laughed away.

I shut the door behind me as I walked into the room. I walked into the ensuite changing into the clothes Rossi had leant us to sleep in. I walked back out now wearing trackpants and a baggy shirt. Spencer was already under the covers sitting up reading a book which he grabbed from Rossi's book shelf.

"Whatcha reading?" I asked as I flopped down next to him.

"Catcher in the rye" He replied.

"I love that book" I smiled at him.

"Do you want me to uh read it to you?" Spencer asked nervously.

"Yeah I'd like that actually" I replied an uncontrollable smile spreading across my face.

He shifted so I could lay my head on his chest as he read, I followed the words along as he read aloud. His steady heartbeat filling the background noise. I shifted my hands so they wrapped around his waist. He stopped reading and looked down at me, I looked up.

Our eyes met.
