Kelly's POV
"A party? That's what your little secret was?" He asked.
"Yes! Garcia wanted to keep it a secret for reasons I can't classify." I said.
"Well when should we be there?" He asked.
"Maybe in 30 minutes. You should get ready." I said walking to my room.
I pull my new outfit out of the bag and put it on along with my swimsuit.
I threw my hair into a messy bun and put on waterproof mascara and eyeliner.
Then I walked out of my room and saw Spencer in a black button up shirt and black slacks.
"Do you have swim trunks?" I asked him.
"Yeah do I need them?" He asked.
"Yes I think half of the party is in the pool." I said.
He hesitated.
"I probably won't go in the water." He said.
"No why not?" I ask bummed out.
"Why do you want me to?" He asked me.
"Yeah I do." I said. "I even got a new swimsuit." I said pretending to be all bummed.
"Fine I'll go in the pool but only for a little bit." He said.
"Yay." I said jumping around.
About 10 minutes later we took his car to Garcia's house.
When we got there, there was music blasting throughout the house and there was colored lights streaming out.
"Let's go through the back." He said.
We opened the gate and saw the open backyard with the large underground pool.
I saw Morgan and a few other people I haven't seen before in the pool playing pool basketball.
"Hey Spence and Kelly are here!" JJ yelled.
"Yay you guys made it." Emily said wearing a black one piece swimsuit.
"I love your outfit Kelly." Garcia said coming up behind Emily.
"Thank you." I said.
After a while I sat in a lawn chair next to Garcia.
"Do you want something to drink?" She asked.
"Um yeah something fruity." I said.
"Reid!" She yelled.
Spencer came around the corner with a drink in his hand.
"Yeah."
"Will you make Kelly one of those but virgin?" She asked him.
"Yeah sure." He said smiling at me.
"He makes the best drinks." Garcia said sipping on hers.
"Oh really?" I said seeing Spencer walk around the corner with a colorful drink in his free hand.
He handed it to me. "I'll be the judge of that." I said taking a sip.
The flavors were amazing.
It was so tropical.
Is that mango?
Pineapple?
"Holy crap Spencer this is really good." I said setting it down.
"I think I'm going to go swim for a while." I said taking my top off.
Garcia whistled at me which made me turn a little red.
I laughed and slowly slipped into the pool.
"Hey Kelly do you want to play volleyball with me?" JJ asked.
"Sure." I said swimming over to her.
We played a little volleyball and then I saw Spencer walk out of the house.
He had his swim trunks on and no shirt.
He wasn't ripped but he was toned.
He had a little six pack.
He walked over to the pool and sat at the edge dangling his feet in.
I swam over to him.
"Are you coming in or not?" I said.
"I will it's just really cold." He said.
I splashed him a little bit. 
"Ahh don't do that." He said laughing. 
"Are you cold now?" I asked him.
"Yeah a little." He said.
I hoped out of the pool next to him and held out my arms.
"No no no." He said right when I hugged him with my wet body.
"Oh is that better?" I said laughing.
"Ok love birds get in the pool." Morgan said pushing us both in.
I went under and then came up and treaded water.
Spencer went under but he just stood up.
The water was about up to his shoulders.
"Are you serious?" I said holding onto the edge of the pool.
"What?" He said smiling.
"Your too tall." I said laughing.
Spencer's POV
She is so beautiful.
Her stomach is flat and it even has definition.
Her tan body is just perfect.
I wouldn't be surprised if she worked out and I didn't.
"What you can't touch?" I said.
She swam out towards me and struggled to stay up.
"No." She said laughing.
"Here." I said.
I grabbed her by the waist and held her up.
"There better?" I said.
She held my shoulders and looked into my eyes.
Before she said anything she pushed me under and swam away.
"Oh you didn't just do that." I said.
Then she disappeared. I looked around and I didn't see her.
Then I felt hands on my shoulders. "Boo." She said.
I turned around and saw her treading water again.
I grabbed her waist again and held her up.
There was a little moment where we looked into each others eyes.
I turned my head and leaned into her.
"Hey pretty boy want to play a round?"
I stopped and saw Morgan spinning the basketball on his finger.
"Yeah sure." I yelled back.
"Sorry." I whispered to her.
"No don't be." She said back smiling.
I walked over to him and we starting playing one on one.
Kelly's POV
"Psst." I heard someone say.
I looked around.
"Psst!"
It was louder.
I turned and looked at Garcia and she was motioning me to come over.
I got out of the pool and walked over to her.
"Yeah?" I said taking a sip of my drink from earlier.
"Yeah? That's it?! Pretty boy almost kissed you." She said with a big smile on her face.
"Oh yeah." I said blushing. "We have before."
Garcia's eyes got so big. "NO WAY!" She yelled.
"Shh be quiet. I don't know if he wanted anyone to know." I said.
"OMG OMG tell me how was it? When was it?" She asked really fast.
I looked over at Spencer and he was happily playing pool basketball with Morgan. 
"Ok so it was actually last night and..."
"WHAT!? Why didn't you tell me earlier or right after it happened?" She asked giggling.
"I forgot about it and I didn't have your number right after." I said.
"Forget a kiss you had the previous night?" She said.
"I was having fun shopping with you." I said laughing.
"Ok ok and." She said on the edge of her seat.
"Well we went to his apartment and we took a shower blah blah blah and then we sat on his bed and I asked him what happened at the scene and he showed me and told me about it. I started crying and then he saw that I reapplied makeup and he said I was beautiful the way I was and rubbed it off. I bandaged him up and the next thing you know he kissed me." I said.
"OMG and the power was off too huh? Romantic candlelight?"
"You got it." I said smiling.
"Eek that sounds so romantic! Was it good?" She asked.
"Yeah... it was also my first kiss." I said.
"Wait what? Your 17 and it was your first kiss?" She asked.
"Yeah but I'm glad it wasn't any of the boys from my school. They're all jerks." I said.
Just then I saw out of the corner of my eyes Spencer whip his head to the side.
I turned and saw him holding his nose.
I think Morgan hit him on accident.
"Reid you ok?" He said behind him.
"Yeah don't worry just a bloody nose." He said climbing out of the pool.
I walked over to him.
"Are you ok?" I asked him.
"Yeah I'm fine don't worry." He said walking to the bathroom.
I stopped and let him be.
"What's wrong with him?" Hotch said holding a martini glass.
"Oh Morgan accidentally hit him in the face and he got a bloody nose." I said.
He nodded and I walked back outside next to Garcia.
"I hope he's ok." I said.
"He's fine. He's been through worse." She said.
"Like what?" I ask just then thinking about when he got shot in the knee.
"He was shot twice I'm sure a little bloody nose won't hurt him." She said taking a sip of her drink.
"Wait twice? The leg and...?"
"The neck." She said.
My eyes widened.
"Really? He only told me about his knee." I said.
Then he came out without me seeing him.
He came up behind me and wrapped his arms around me so I couldn't move my arms.
I let out a little scream.
Garcia just laughed.
Then he picked me up like I weighed nothing and walked over to the pool.
I quickly spun around and put my hands on his shoulders.
By now we were at the pool edge.
"If I go down your going with me." I said.
He let out a small little wicked smile and leaned towards me.
I made sure I was holding onto his shoulders tight so I wouldn't let go.
He leaned so he would knock me over into the pool and I pulled him down with me making us both fall into the pool.
We both came up laughing.
"I thought you would have let go!" He said.
"I said you would go down with me." I said.
We both laughed and I swam closer to him.
We were the only ones in the pool.
He reached out and put a hand on my face.
He pulled me closer to him and I kissed him.
I set my hand on his wet head and he wrapped his arm around my waist.
Then I heard someone do the 'sexy whistle'.
We both looked over and Emily, Hotch, JJ, Garcia, Rossi and Morgan watching us.
"Pretty boys got a girlfriend." Morgan teased.
"Why don't you love birds come inside and dance?" Garcia said.
I looked at him.
"I don't really dance." He said.
"No. Come on it will be fun." I said.
We both got out of the pool, dried off and put our clothes on.
Then we went through the sliding glass door and the song Summer was playing.
I grabbed Spencer's hand and we started dancing.
After about 4 different songs there was a slow song.
Is was Say Something.
I looked at Spencer in the eyes.
"It's our song." He said offering his hand.
I took it and placed mine on his shoulder and he put his on my hip.
His brown eyes sparkled in the colorful lights giving him this puppy dog look.
I gently sniffed the air.
His cologne is still on after the pool.
Nothing cheap.
Spencer's POV
She was so beautiful in this dim but vibrant light.
Her blonde hair made the colors bounce off.
Her makeup was still on even after the pool.
Not wearing the cheap stuff.
The song seemed like it lasted forever but I was glad it lasted.
When it was over she hugged me.
I saw a bright flash.
It was probably storming again.
"See isn't this fun?" She asked me as we sat at the bar.
"I have to admit it is pretty fun." I said looking down smiling.
"There's nothing to be shy about." She said lifting my chin up.
I smiled at her.
Then a song came on that I have heard like once when I was flipping through radio channels.
"Oh my gosh this song is so fun to dance to!" Kelly said pulling me to the dance floor.
There was a lot of unfamiliar faces but I knew most of the people there.
The word 'fireball' was blasted and then music after wards.
"Come on pretty boy lets dance." Morgan said pulling me to the middle of the circle.
Morgan did a few break dance moves and then looked at me.
I then remembered what Kelly said earlier.
There's nothing to be shy about.
I started to do the robot to the music.
Everyone cheered.
Then Morgan and I did the wave and a few rap hand motions.
Before I knew it the song was over.
Everyone clapped and cheered while Morgan roughly shook me around by the shoulders.
"See you were great." Kelly said coming out of nowhere.
"Yeah I'd like to see you bust some moves like those." I yelled over the music.
"Is that a challenge?" She asked folding her arms.
I nodded yes.
Kelly's POV
"Alright the next song." I said.
We sat at the bar and waited for this song to end.
Then the song Uptown Funk came on.
"This is the one." I told him bringing him to the dance floor.
"Alright let me get the feel of it." He said listening.
After about 30 seconds he nodded he was ready.
I jumped to the beat and clapped my hands when the cymbals clapped.
Then Spencer started doing the same thing.
Whenever the song said 'I'm too hot' I shook my hands above my head.
Spencer would spin around.
Spencer's POV
Kelly's pretty good at dancing and I could tell she was getting tired.
I was too matter of fact.
The song was over and Garcia pulled me to the side.
"You haven't had this much fun in front of me before." She said taking a sip of whatever was in her glass.
"I know. I haven't had this much fun in a long time." I said.
"If you guys want you can stay the night here." She offered. "Looks like Kelly already fell asleep and people are leaving.
I looked over at Kelly and she was passed out on the couch.
"I think we just might if it doesn't trouble you." I said politely.
"Oh I don't care. There is a spare bedroom upstairs." She said.
"Ok thanks Garcia." I said walking over to Morgan.
