I had worked for the B.A.U in Quantico, Virginia for 3 months. It was early in the morning at about 6am when my phone went off; Penelope Garcia—
"Hey pen" I yawned out
"Hey sweet stuff! I know it's early and I hate to be a bother but we've got a case." Penelope has always been very cheerful and filled with playful banter since I had joined the B.A.U which is why I felt so comfortable with her.
"I'll be there in fifteen, do you think you could grab me a coffee? I haven't slept to much"
"Of course! But are you okay y/n? You know I'm here for anything and everything" I smiled to myself knowing no matter what I told her, she'd never let it go.
"Yeah pen, I'm okay. I'll see you soon. Bye" I hung up the phone and removed my blanket from my body, shifting my position so my legs were over the edge of the bed, rubbing my eyes slightly before pushing myself off of my bed with my hands. I made my bed before going to my closet, pulling out a white long sleeved shirt with a turtle neck, a black jacket and black jeans, throwing them on I looked in the mirror
"Good to go" I mumbled to myself before grabbing my keys and heading out the door towards the B.A.U. I sat in the drivers seat, turning my key into the ignition yawning then throwing the seatbelt over me and buckling it in. The streets were always pretty bare at 6am besides a few cars racing to work, it was quite relaxing; just the radio playing softly. As I pulled into the parking lot, I saw a familiar 2005 Prius pull up a few parking spaces from me- Spencer Reid- he was a pretty awkward guy about 6"1, brown hair, he always carries a satchel around his neck
"Hey y/n" he pressed his lips into a small smile, waving awkwardly.
"Mornin' Spence" I waved back to him, giving him the same smile. We both got into the elevator heading up to the 5th floor
"I'm exhausted" i stated feeling the need to break the silence between the two of us
"Me too" he agreed quietly "the average person is supposed to get from 7 to 9 hours of sleep"
"Jesus, really? Try 2 to 3 for me" I laughed softly.
"That's not healthy" he stated turning towards me.
"Yeah" I ran a hand through my hair "tell me about it"
He titled his head, as if trying to figure out what I'm thinking
"Don't try and profile me, doctor Reid" I watched him out of the corner of my eye.
"Right, sorry" he turned back around towards the door of the elevator, just then they had opened displaying the front of the bureau. I walked towards my desk before hearing Dereks voice behind me
"Hey, goddess" he smiled at me, handing me a coffee "double double, Penelope told me you need one" he winks at me before asking "late night?"
"Kinda, yeah." I had replied without thinking before looking back at Derek who was now smirking "wait no Derek! Not like that, definitely not like that"
He bursted out laughing, I shoved his shoulder lightly giggling now myself, watching JJ hop off the elevator and stroll towards my desk
"You guys ready for another long trip. Penelope said it was bad" she looked between Morgan and I
"Are we ever really ready?" I asked more to myself then them, Derek looked at me before changing the subject
"Alright, we should probably head up" he patted my leg before standing up and walking towards the room with the round table, Emily and Rossi had already been sitting in there talking to Penelope- not about the mission but about Sergio, Emily's cat.
"He's just so cute!" Penelope beamed turning her attention towards us "oh my lovelies! Okay, down to the icky ick" she clicked the controller towards the white board where the gruesome pictures of three women had popped up
"These unlucky ladies, we're abducted from parks then stabbed, there's no sign of sexual assault, but the weird thing that makes this our case, there's a kiss on the first three victims cheek in black lip stick"
"So this unsub isn't a sexual sadist?" Prentiss- emily- had asked, still looking through the paper copies of the case.
"She still could be" I suggested "the kiss mark that she leaves behind, isn't that considered sexual?"
"We'll talk more in the jet." Hotch- Aaron- explained standing up gathering the notes "wheels up in thirty". Everyone stood up, collecting the notes, everyone already had go bags by their desks always just in case, for reasons like this.
—————————On The Jet—————————
I sat down beside Reid near the back of the jet, Prentiss sat beside hotch on the opposite side of the booth as Morgan and JJ sat and Rossi sat across from Reid and I.
"Was there any DNA? Y'know from the mark this unsub left?" I looked at the photo of the lips printed on their skin.
"No, none, which is odd" hotch looked at me
"Do you think the mark means something to the unsub?" Morgan questioned.
"Typically it suggests love, but maybe it's the opposite this time." Spencer ran his hand through his hair "a-a sign of hatred,, cheating maybe? I'm not sure"
JJ put the phone up to her ear "hey Garcia?"
"What can i do for you, my beautiful blonde friend?"
"Can you search up if any of these victims had ex boyfriend, ex girlfriends , spouses, anyone who would want to harm them?"
"Of course!" She replied cheerfully "I'll have them sent to you ASAP! Peace out my pack of precious people!" She exclaimed before hanging up abruptly
"She's always so cheerful ever at 7am" Rossi admired that about Penelope. After talking about the case for awhile everyone started to nod off to sleep, everyone but Spencer, he was looking out the window of the jet, he had his eyebrows scrunched together as if he was thinking; I nudged him slightly
"Hey, are you okay? You seem upset?"
"I'm fine y/n, just tired I guess"
I could tell he was lying by the way he couldn't make eye contact and was fidgeting with his fingers.
"You can't lie to me, spencer."
"I'm not lying"
"I'm a profiler too Spence" he just sighed turning his head back towards the window.
"Okay, okay fine. But I'm here when you need me, okay? I care." I told him before kicking my legs over his lap, he looked at me and pressed his lips into a line-like smile
"Is this okay?" I asked gesturing to my legs
"Mhm" he hummed.
————————few hours later————————
I was woken up from someone slightly shaking me
"Y/n, come on, the plane just landed. We're here" Spencer was slightly pushing my legs off him
"Hm, okay" I started to rub my eyes "I'm up, I'm up." I grabbed my bag and threw it over my shoulder, walking down the stairs of the jet and to my hotel across the street. I heard someone run up behind me before turning around I heard them say
"Wait up!"
"Hey Spence" i smiled at him "what's up?"
"We have the same hotel, do you wanna walk with me?"
"Of course" we walked in silence taking in New York City, looking at the lights and other buildings, restaurants mostly.
"It's so pretty" I said looking at the sky
"Yeah it is, did you know stars are black bodies?"
"No, I didn't actually."
"I'm sorry I tend to spit out random fac-"
"Don't apologize for talking about things you enjoy Spencer, especially not to me."
"Thanks y/n" he smiled
"Always" we made our way to the front of the hotel and walked to the check in area
"Y/n L/n, please" the guy at the front desk handed me a key
"Room 102, floor 3"
"Thank you" I waved at him
"A room under the name Spencer Reid, please"
He was handed a key by the same man
"Room 103, floor 3" Spencer walked towards me
"Guess we're neighbours, huh?" He joked
"I guess so" I giggled. We got in the elevator and hit the 3rd floor, walking to our rooms when we reached them Spencer turned to me
"Goodnight, Y/n"
"Night, Spence, see you tomorrow" I smiled and gave him a little wave which he returned. I opened the door into my bedroom and decided I needed to shower, I went and turned on the water having a shower and letting the water soak into my skin. After I brushed my teeth and dried my hair, making my way to my bed and laying down before pulling the blankets over me as I closed my eyes.
