The a month or so later the team found themselves in Las Vegas for a case. Luckily they managed to save the boy but Spencer stayed behind to investigate the case of Riley Jenkins.

Eliza sat in the apartment of her sister Sophia who preparing for her wedding. Unbeknownst to Eliza, Spencer was also in the city. She was happy to see her older sister marrying her longtime boyfriend, Nicolas Galen.

"So have to met anyone?" Sophie questioned.

Eliza thought about it for a bit. "Maybe, I met a guy at the bookstore about a month ago," Eliza signed.

"Is he cute?" Sophie questioned.

Eliza blushed. "Maybe, he's a complete nerd."

"So exactly your type? Have you talked to him? Come on, tell me you didn't let this one get away."

Eliza nodded her head. "We've been texting and I've been teaching him ASL. He's practically fluent at this point."

"Awe, how adorable. Did you invite him to the wedding? You're totally single Addie and you know how mom and dad are."

"Still pissed I didn't marry Damien after I graduated college. Don't remind me." Eliza groaned.

"Basically, so what does this guy do for a living?"

"FBI agent, he's on a case right now or was." Eliza's phone buzzed with a text.

From Spencer:
Sorry I haven't been able to talk. We finished up our case and I stayed behind to look into a few things, which I have finished. I'm currently in Las Vegas to spend time with my mother.

From Eliza:
Funny thing is, I'm in Las Vegas too for my sister's wedding.

From Spencer:
That is interesting indeed. Older or younger sister?

From Eliza:
Older, she's marrying her longtime boyfriend. Which brings me to my next point, would you Spencer Reid do me the honors of being my date tomorrow for the wedding?

From Spencer:
I would love to. Where should I meet you?

From Eliza:
I'll email you the details later.

From Spencer:
Sounds good, would you like to meet my mother? I'm going to visit her again tomorrow, I'm currently staying at an hotel.

From Eliza:
I'd love to. Why don't we meet up at your hotel?

Spencer messaged her the details while Sophie observed. Eliza put her phone down and saw Sophie with a grin on her face.

"Was that him?"

"Yeah, I just invited him to your wedding."

Sophie squealed with happiness. "Yay! My little sister has a date. What's his name?"

"Spencer, and he wants me to meet his mother tomorrow."

"Wow, moving fast now are we? Now let's see what clothes you brought. You need to make a good first impression."

Eliza groaned. "Can I just not and say I made an effort?"

"Eliza Adrienne Hayes, get off your lazy bum," Sophie yelled. Eliza rolled her eyes. "Don't give me attitude young lady."

Eliza knew that it was going to be a long afternoon. By the end of it all Sophie had chosen Eliza's outfit for the next day as well as he outfit for the wedding party after the pictures. Sophie knew better than anyone that Eliza would take off that bridesmaid dress as soon as the pictures were over. The two sisters chatted into the late of night.
