Spencer Reid One Shots

More Than Jealous

(Y/n) sighs softly as she sits at her desk, looking at the clock to see it's a little after 1am.

Paperwork managed to pile high so she said she'd stay late to catch up.

Her desk light flickers slightly and her back was starting to hurt.

"Hey (n/n)." Luke greets from behind her.

The 30 year old jumps out of her skin and turns around. "Oh Luke it's you. What are you still doing here?"

"Same as you by the looks of it." The tall man responds gesturing to the large stack of files.

(Y/n) laughs softly and rubs the back of her neck.

"I noticed you started filling them out slower so I came over. Is something wrong?"

The young girl blushes softly as she remembers why she slowly stopped.

The genius she calls a best friend has managed to steal her heart.

"I-if I tell you can you promise to keep it between you and I?" She begs looking up at him.

He chuckles and pulls up a chair. "I won't tell anyone."

(Y/n) takes a deep breath and bites her lip. "I-I was thinking about Spencer." She whispers and blushes again.

Luke smirks. "Oh yeah?"

"Yeah. But I couldn't tell him. Not to mention, no romance in the workplace. He's also not skilled in the ways of romance due to the fact he's too dense. He may be a genius but not when it comes to love."

Luke laughs and nods in agreement. "I can't argue with that. I've only just started and I can tell he's not good at reading social cues."

(Y/n) groans and covers her face.

"How about this: forget the rules and try to get him anyways. I'm sure he likes you back, he just needs a nudge."

"How am I supposed to get his attention though?"

Luke leans back in his chair, still smirking. "We make him jealous."

"Jealous? I'm pretty sure it's impossible for him to feel jealousy." The girl retorts and leans back in her own chair.

Luke shrugs. "It's worth a try right? Try to make him jealous. And if that doesn't work then we'll have our answer."

(Y/n) thinks about the plan and slowly smiles. "Ok then. This could be fun. Should I flirt with you or you with me? Should we flirt with each other? I've never done this before."

"That's a bit obvious. I'll flirt with you in front of him, but far enough away that he can't hear what we're saying. Does that make sense?"

She nods and smiles. "Sounds like a plan. Should we start tomorrow or...?" She trails off and he nods.

"Yeah. We can start tomorrow. Just follow my lead and it's sure to work."

"You're such a ladies man Luke." She jokes and shakes her head.

He smirks and shrugs. "I can't help it. My devilish good looks are a gift."

Soon they pack up and head home.

The next day the two get to the office a few minutes apart. They smile at one another and he winks.

That action didn't go unnoticed by Rossi.

Since their desks are next to each other (Y/n) and Luke talk while they fill out paperwork.

Spencer glances over and takes note of her smile. When Luke winks at her Spencer was confused, and finally felt a bit jealous.
