The friend from Uni.

Half truth, half lie.

Thankfully when I rushed back to the team I was able to pull them all into the round table room and sit them down.
"Are you going to tell us about your boyfriend now?" Emily asked
"Why must people think I'm always just into guys?" I questioned.
"What?!" They all questioned minus Spencer.
"Ash is into females and non-binary people."
"So what's your sexuality?" Jj asked.
"I don't like labelling my sexuality for others to understand me. I know who I like and don't like, that all that matters."
"What's your type?" Derek asked
"I have a thing for people who are smart. That's not why I brought you all in here." I told before pushing my hair out of my face.
"Tell us about your partner then, Kitten."
"That's why I brought you all in here. I don't have a partner. I just said I did to help let the dudes feelings down more easily."
"Why?" They all questioned minus Spencer since he knew why I was saying all this.
'Man, Shawn will kill me if he found out I was hiding this..... who am I kidding, the dude would find this hot.'
"Say you ask someone out. Would you be more upset if they just didn't share the same feelings and are most likely pinning for someone else, or they just have a significant other already ands that's why they don't share the same feels?"
"The second opinion." They told as one.
"Exactly. This doesn't leave this room, ever." I told before turning to Spencer. "Pay up, Spencey!"
"I can not believe you knew he would get a chair from his office." He told as he grabbed the money to pay me. "How do you always know stuff like that?"
"Same way I know David is proud that I guessed correctly, Derek is looking at my ass like always, Penelope is thinking about how Derek could possibly bench press her, Jj is thinking about taking a long sleep once she gets home and Emily is thinking about her Grey cat Sergio."
"How did she do that?!" Penelope exclaimed pointing towards me.
"What's Pretty Boy thinking?!"
"That I'm amazingly talented and he's lucky to have me as his bestie." I told making them all look towards him.
"She's correct." He told holding out the 30 he owed me.
"And I'll be taking that."
'Wonder how my boys from home are doing?'

~(Meanwhile in Santa Barbara!)~

Shawn and Gus were in a dead man's home looking over his things in his office. And of course Gus wouldn't shut up about getting her contacts.
"Why don't you let me use my new contacts to get the information?" He questioned making Shawn pull a annoyed look.
"Is that how we do things, Gus, really? Why talk to someone about Holmstrom when we could have his home office tell us everything we need to know? His hopes, his dreams..." he explained before showing a picture of a random lady to him. "his love for the ladies."
"I think that's his wife." Gus stated making Shawn shrug before he went back looking through the dead man's things.
"People lie, stuff doesn't." He stated before they heard noise from someone at one of the doors to get into the house.
"Did you lock the front door?" Gus asked as he became scared.
"Yes, I locked the door."
"I don't think it was locked."
"I know I lock..." Shawn began before they heard glass breaking making him hit Gus lightly on the chest. "You see that? They had to break a window."
Of course them bring them, they instantly began to freak out and rush around trying different hiding spots, where one of them was poorly stood in the fire place and the other had a pillow in front of his face. Though they both decided to hide under the desk together before the mystery man came into the room. They waited in silence cramped up in the small space together and waited for a few moments till the man left again allowing them to speak without having to worry about being caught.
"People breaking into offices... no one respects anything anymore." Gus stated like they had not done that and still are doing that.
"My god, did you see who that was?" Shawn asked.
"It's hard to see anything with someone's knee in your eye."
"It's your own knee." Shawn argued to his childhood best friend.
"I wish Ash was here."
"So do I."

~(Back at the BAU)~

'I'm sure they are fine.'
"Kitten, can we try and set you up with someone?"
"Sure. You can try." I told making her and the others minus David and Spencer to get excited.
'Maybe I shouldn't have said yes to that.'
