"Spencer, you've made my hair a mess!" I giggled.
He turned and faced me as we laid in his bed. We pushed our lips together.
"I hate to ruin the moment, but the dinner is in a half an hour and we're both naked," he chuckled.
He sat up and stretched, mumbling about bruised hips and sore legs.
"What was that?"
"Oh nothing."
Spencer got up quickly and went to the bathroom, slipping his boxers on at the same time.
"Son of a bitch!" I heard him exclaimed.
I ran to the bathroom with a sheet tied like a towel around my body.
"What's wrong?" I asked, genuinely worried.
"There's a hickey on my neck!" he shouted.
"Are you mad at me?" I asked.
"Slightly! There's a mark on my neck!" he snapped.
"You weren't complaining about that a while ago," I replied coldly, walking away.
He sighed, mumbling something about him being an ass.
"Jess," he called, following behind me.
"No it's fine, Spencer. We'll keep sleeping together to the minimum," I snapped.
"Come on. Don't get all angry and offended! I'm just not sure how to cover it," he explained.
"It's called makeup, you idiot," I chuckled, facing him.
"Sorry," he admitted.
I went onto my toes and gave him a kiss.
"It's okay. You're not a girl so you don't think like we do," I teased, "we're smarter."
"Actually, not all females are smarter. Women like YOU are smarter than a lot of men. Women who flaunt their bodies are not," Spencer explained.
"Can we just get ready?" I asked, turning pink.
"Sure," he replied, kissing my nose.
I walked over to the corner of the room and grabbed my clothing I had brought over from my apartment. I slipped into a floral dress with short sleeves and black heels.
"I have to curl my hair," I complained, walking to the bathroom.
"Really?" Spencer asked, looking at his watch, "We have twenty minutes until we have to leave."
"I don't care. I'll curl my hair if I want to, Dr. Reid," I smirked.
"Will it take long? You still have to cover my hickey," he asked quietly.
"You should get change, Spence. You can't go to the dinner in a sheet and boxers," I giggled, playing with the band of his boxers.
He nodded and scurried to get his things. He changed quickly and came back into the bathroom. After I finished my hair, I fixed his and covered his mark.
"Perfect," I mumbled.
He leaned forward and kissed me. We quickly got into the car and drove to the restaurant for the party.
-_-_-_--_-_-_--_-_-_--_-_-_--_-_-_-
We walked in together on time. Spencer had his hand decorously on my waist until we got into the actual restaurant.
"Sweetheart! C'mere," Derek called as we walked in.
I walked away quickly from Spencer and towards Derek.
"What's up with you and Reid? You seem pretty close..." he asked, trailing off.
"Well, we have been working together for about a month now, right? And we're neighbors. He's my ride to work in the morning," I explained, playing with my fingers.
"You're messing around with your fingers, sweetheart," he said in a confused tone.
"S-so?" I stammered.
"That means that you're hiding something-"
"Jessica? Ängelica would like to see you," Spencer smiled, cutting in.
"Great!" I exclaimed while pulling him away from Derek.
I walked quickly to Ängelica. She was dressed in a long-sleeved purple dress and her hair was pinned back into an elegant sweep.
"You look amazing," I smiled, giving her a hug.
"Aren't you two an adorable couple?" she smiled, pinching Spencer's cheek.
"I b-beg your pardon?" I asked with a pink face.
"Are you two not dating? The way I see you two look at each other is full of so much love," she explained.
Spencer's hand came to my waist and held it politely. I smiled.
"Now is probably the time to tell everyone," she smiled quietly.
Ängelica winked at us and we all started to giggle and chuckle. Spencer and I walked up to a little stage and he took a deep breath in.
"Can we have your attention, please?" he asked after tapping the microphone lightly.
The talking gradually died down, but there was still a small sound of mumbles and murmurs. Spencer's hand moved from my waist and grasped my own hand. He closed his eyes.
"Jessica and I are a couple," he stated boldly.
Everything stopped. It was so quiet, of a pin were dropped it would have been heard.
"Well I'll be dammed," Derek sighed, "Today's the day I will kill Spencer Reid."
