And yes I di realize I'm posting this late, but its 11:30 pm so technically-
-----------

It was valentines day and another case hadn't come through in hours so Garcia had forced everyone to make treats for everyone else to eat.
Everyone had pretty much finished already putting on the last-minute decorations, well mostly everyone.
Spencer, who had taken up the challenge of making cake pops, was in the small kitchen in the BAU desperately trying to get melted chocolate onto the cake, and failing, miserably.
He wanted them to be perfect, needed them to be perfect but it wasn't working for him.

Morgan walked past him stopping and peeking into the room "Not doing so well, pretty boy?" He questioned a hint of amusement and a smirk on his face.

Spencer's head shot up eyes ablaze "I am a man of science, not a culinary genius," he said "what even is a cake pop? It's essentially a round cupcake on a stick, what is the point?"
He sighed, running his hands through his hair, as Morgan only laughed, shook his head, and walked away.
He groaned before leaning back down over the cake pops trying to salvage the cake to make it look at least a little edible.

When another set of footsteps sounded outside the kitchen he groaned again "Morgan, not in the mood" he said his voice defeated.
"How dare you, I'm much prettier than that man" a new voice sounded with a teasing tone.
Spencer turned around his eyes settling on your figure that was leaning on the doorway with a proud smirk.
"Y/n!" He said surprised, his demeanor relaxing "what are you doing here?"

You stood upright making your way toward the doctor "Penelope told me you guys were making sweets, I like sugar and I wanted to see what you were doing" you explained "cake pops? Can I have one?"
Spencer tensed up looking away from you, his nerves spiking "they're not good, I've been trying for hours to get them perfect and it's not working" he complained leaning against the counter "so don't expect much."
You rolled your eyes "Spencer, it's sugar, it'll be amazing" you replied, but he only shrugged dismissively.
You rolled your eyes before grabbing one and eating it.

Spencer's eyes were trained on you, trying to read your facial expressions.
To say that he was surprised when you beamed at him was an understatement.
"Do you like it?" He asked when you finished and you nodded enthusiastically "like it? Spence, it's chocolate and cake, it's amazing" you replied, "can I take some?"
His eyes widened before he nodded "yeah, yeah, of course" he said "you can have all of them...if you want"

"Really? Yay!" You cheered grabbing a plastic bag to store the sweets, happily bagging them for later.
Spencer watched you with awe "you actually want them?" He asked, "why?"
You frowned glancing up a him "Spence, like I said it's sugar" you said, and he looked down "oh, right, of course."
You grinned reaching out and messing with his hair "besides you made them, no way am I gonna pass up on that opportunity" you finished.
He looked up at you smiling, here he was being worried that the cake pops wouldn't be good because they weren't perfect, but you didn't seem to care, you liked them, loved them even.
He didn't say anything only looked at you, but you didn't seem to notice, your attention back on the treats.

A couple of seconds passed before you broke the silence "so does the Spencer Reid have a valentine?" You asked, hopping up on the counter "or does no one get the honor?"
Spencer tensed his face flushing a shade redder "oh- no- I mean I had someone in mind- I mean- but- uh-" he stuttered over his words before taking a deep breath to calm his nerves "no, I don't have a valentine."
He fell silent again and you tilted your head a smirk appearing on your face "oh come on Spence you can't just get all flustered and then not tell me who you wanted to ask" you complained reaching out and planting your hands on his shoulders shaking him.

He grabbed your hands laughing awkwardly "it's noth-"

"No! No excuses you tell me right now or I swear to Garcia I will take your favorite book and hide it" you threatened "and not give it b-"

"It's you!"

That shut you up quickly, your mouth closing shut and your eyes going wide with surprise. Spencer let go of your hands, running his fingers through his hair "those cake pops were for you, I wanted them to be perfect, but they weren't and then you came in and I decided I just...wouldn't tell you" he explained, though his voice grew quieter with each word.
He turned his head away from you, eyes downcasted to the floor and face turning fifty shades darker.

"Spencer, tell me you didn't think I would say no" you murmured but he didn't reply "Spence, I would love to be your valentine, the sugar is just a bonus."
Spencer looked back at you a smile spreading across his face, a chuckle vibrating from his chest "then would you do me the honors of being my valentine?" He asked.
You nodded "of course, Sp-"

"Ooo, pretty boys upgrading to lover boy" A voice sounded and when you turned your head Morgan was back in the doorway.
Turning back to Spencer you jumped off the counter grabbing a whisk that was strewn out on the surface by Spencer a little bit earlier "love, I'll be right back" you said, before turning your attention to Morgan.
Derek got the message and began to walk away, but you sprinted after him.

"Derek, I was about to kiss him, get back here right now or so help me God I will beat you with a whisk!"
