The two brunettes stare at each other for a moment. Spencer is clearly nervous, but he waits patiently for her answer.

An infectious smile grows on Sophia's face, making Spencer smile too.

"Yes, yes," She laughs nervously, "I'd love to be your girlfriend, Spencer."

He lets out a relieved sigh and he hugs her. She hugs back and buries her face in the crook of his neck.

Sophia pulls away from the hug, smiling at each other. Her smile slowly fades as she realizes something.

"What's wrong?"

"Aren't romantic work place relationships frowned upon? It could get us into serious trouble with Strauss."

"Then we wont tell anybody." Reid shrugs.

A mischievous smile appears on the girl's face.

"Yeah. We wont tell anybody." She repeats what Spencer had said.

5:23 PM

"Do you want to go pick something up to eat, or should we cook?" Reid asks, sitting on the couch, facing Sophia.

"Let's cook. It'll be fun." Sophia encourages.

"Sure, I've got stuff to make homemade pizza, wanna do that?"

"Yes." She says excitedly, quickly getting up and going into the kitchen, Spencer getting up, following her.

They're both in mismatched socks. On their way to the kitchen, the both of them slip on the tile. They catch one another, and start laughing.

They finish their small laughing fit. Sophia hops up onto the counter and sits there, while Spencer gets the ingredients to make the pizza dough.

"Can you grab the pizza sauce from the pantry?"

"Yes sir." She salutes him and hops down from the counter.

She grabs the sauce and sets it down on the counter.

Spencer goes over to wear Sophia's sitting and kneels down in front of her to grab a pan from the bottom cabinet.

"Excuse me." He mumbles.

A devilish smile grows on Sophia's face and she grabs the nearest object next to her, which would be a spatula.

The next thing she does is she hits him on the head. Making him look up at her, furrowing his eyebrows. They just stare at each other for a second.

"It was an impulse decision, i'm sorry." She chuckles awkwardly.

"It's alright." He chuckles too and stands up, holding the pan and setting it on the counter next to Sophia.

He kneels down again, needing to grab a decent sized bowl. He sets it next to the pan and he goes into the pantry, grabbing the ingredients needed to make the dough.

Spencer sets them all out. Now there's an array of ingredients from his pantry sitting on the counter.

Sophia hops down from the counter, "What first?"

"a cup and a half of flour."

She grabs the bag of flour and a measuring cup. Holmes scoops out a cup of flour and dumps it into the bowl. Then she scoops a bit more of flour out and pours it in.

Spencer reaches his hand into the bag of flour and throws some onto Sophia.

This causes him to burst out laughing.

"Spencer!" She laughs and grabs some flour, throwing it at him.

They continue this flour battle. A bunch of it gets on the floor, so socks plus flour plus a slipper floor isn't the best combination.

Then it happens. Spencer slips, pulling Sophia down with him.

They both wince, as Spencer just fell back onto the hard tile floor and Sophia fell on top of Spencer.

Even though they're both covered in flour, they both look at each other with the most endearing eyes anyone's ever seen.

"Can I kiss you?" Spencer asks quietly.

No words escape her mouth, she just nods.

They kiss. This time, no one pulls away within the first two seconds like Mister Spencer Reid did previously.

it lasts a few seconds before they both pull away.

The both of them are bright red, and then Sophia rolls off of him.

"Okay, now lets make this pizza." She cheers.

TOMORROW 10:34 AM

Everyone sits around at the roundtable. Garcia standing in front of the projector with her remote.

"This isn't a brand new case, in fact, there's a good chance it's connected to the previous murder at the hotel that Sophia was staying at." The wonderful Miss Garcia says.

Everyone seems somewhat intrigued, as they never solved the murder from a few days ago at that hotel.

She clicks a button on the remote, making some pictures appear onto the projector.

"This is Carolina Gonzales, she was murdered in her home around two AM, as the coroner said."

The wounds were a bit more brutal than the previous murder.

When the murdered woman's name was mentioned, Spencer and Sophia both look at each other. Same with the others. All of them recognize the girl's name.

"What?" Garcia asks.

"That's Spencer's girlfriend.." Emily whispers to herself.

Spencer overhears, "Was my girlfriend, we broke up a while ago."

Garcia's jaw drops, "You had a girlfriend and you didn't tell me?"

Sophia's trying her best to hide her blushing. Luckily nobody notices, or so she thinks.

"Anyways, back to the case." Penelope sighs and clicks the remote once more.

"This victim has a few more stab wounds than our earliest vic, and by 'a few more' I mean about twenty." She lets her arms fall to her sides and looks at them.

"Well clearly this attack was a lot more personal." Morgan says.

"I think that's all crossed our minds." Sophia mocks him from her first day on the job.

Morgan rolls her eyes at her, with a slight smile.

"Sophia." Hotch says.

"Sorry." She bites her inner cheek and hides a chuckle.

"Since the case is local, it won't take us long to arrive there. We'll leave in twenty." Hotch says.

A few of the team members nod and get up from the roundtable.
