Reid POV
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
We get on the plane, heading to Maine for a case. Everyone had to share a room, so the room arrangements were Prentiss and Seaver, Hotch and Rossi, and me and Derek.

Derek and I were heading to our room when he realized that he forgot to bring his toothbrush. We went to the room and put our stuff up, and he said he would be running to the store and getting a toothbrush and some cokes and waters. He walked out the door and I realized that it was the perfect time to dress up. Derek would be gone and I would have plenty of time. I pulled out my bag and pulled out a tight, black dress with off the shoulder long sleeves with a choker attached. I completed the look with simple, black booted heels.

I walk up to the line and placed my items on the conveyer belt and wait for the person in front of me to pay. The cashier rings up my items. I reach for my wallet, but I left it at the apartment. I tell the cashier and leave the store. I think about calling Reid, but he may be reading and I don't want to bother him.

I get up to the room and open the door quietly. I see Reid standing at the window, looking out, but he was in a dress and heels. I stare, mouth agap in aw.

Reid turns around, eyes wide in horror. He shrieks and runs to the bathroom, slamming and locking the door behind him. I went to the door and knocked. "Reid please open the door. I don't mind it. All I care about is you trusting me not to hate you for dressing differently. You already dress differently than most, it was just... More different." I said, leaning against the door frame. "I know you disapprove of my outfit, I saw it on your face. It was a look of horror, you hate me." Reid stammered out, his voice trembling. "Oh trust me, I don't hate you at all, in fact, I love you." I let slip before slamming my hand to my mouth. Reid opened the door smiling slightly with a tear rolling down his face and his eyes red from crying. "What? Why would you love me? I dress like a girl, I'm bi, and I annoy everyone with facts about anything mentioned. I'm just some guy who everyone wishes would just go away and-" I crashed my lips to his and pull him closer. He starts kissing back when we hear a knock on the door. "Coming!" I shouted, tossing Reid's  work clothes to him as he goes in the bathroom. I look through the peep hole to see Hotch with his dull facial expression he always has. I open the door and smile. "What's up, Hotch?" I ask since he usually just calls if he needs to inform us of something. "I heard a scream. Where is Reid?" Hotch asked. He looked genuinely worried. "Oh, the scream was when I scared him and now he is brushing his teeth. Nothing to worry about." I lied, not wanting to release Reid's secret. "Ok, as long as everything thing is ok." And with that, Hotch left.

I closed the door and said "hey if you haven't changed yet, please don't." Reid came out of the bathroom, still in the dress and walked up to me. "I don't think we have to worry about who sleeps on the floor tonight." I said as Reid punched my arm playfully. We better get some sleep for the case tomorrow.

I took off my shirt and pants, left with only my underwear, while Reid changed into pj's pants and an FBI T-shirt. We hopped in the bed and curled up next to each other. I draped my arm over his small figure and we both drifted into a heavy slumber.
