Tell me something I don't know (ON HOLD)

Chapter 5

Going about her daily routine around the LA precinct, Nina finds herself looking at Spencer more than she should. Something had changed between them last night, they felt closer. More like friends than coworkers.

"Hey Nina, we've got a suspect and we're bringing him in for interrogation." Morgan tells her.
Nina swallows the lump in forming in her throat. This would be the first time she was in the same room as a possible serial killer, that scared her.

She feels a warm hand gently place itself on her back between her shoulder blades, she turns to see Spencer. "You'll be fine, we don't even know if he's the unsub." He reassures her. She weakly smiles at him. Of course in a team of profilers one of them was going to notice that she was nervous, she was glad it was Spencer though.

Spencer was pretty sure that if he hadn't been paying extra attention to Nina the whole day her wouldn't have noticed her unease, however , as luck would have it he was pretty much unable to tear his eyes away from her since this morning.

"Hey Nina!" Emily walked by with the suspect. "Could you bring Mr.Raymond here a cup of Joe,please." Nina gulped once again, noticing the mans gaze lingering on her. "No sugar and creamer darlin'" he says to her with a look that made Nina particularly uncomfortable.
Without another word she hurried away.

The man smirked at Spencer and chuckled, "man, I'm not surprised you got the wrong guy, I wouldn't be able to get any work done with that fine piece of ass around." Spencer's nostrils flared in anger and he balled his hands into first. He kept his anger in check but all he wanted to do was wipe that stupid, celebrity smirk off this guys face.

Instead of course, he took a deep breath and roughly grabbed his arm from Prentiss, "we'll see about that, we have a few questions to ask you." He said lowly, walking him to the interrogation room.

Nina walked up next to Spencer as he watched Emily interrogate the man. He didn't seem to fit the profile. Spencer sighed.
Nina notices his distress, "if it makes you feel any better, I definitely messed up his coffee by putting 3 sugars  in it ." She smiles at him, her dimples showing.

Spencer chuckles, "Yeah, even if he's not our guy, he's kind of a dick."
Nina playfully gasps at him. "A swear word, my my Dr Reid, I didn't take you for the type."
Spencer looks down at her fingers that delicately rest on her bottom lip.
He licked his lips, "I'm the type to do a lot of things ,you'd be surprised."

Nina's eyebrows shot up, fuck, was Spencer...flirting? As soon as the thought entered her head she chased it away, there was no way he would be interested in someone like her. He was so...perfect and she was far from it.

She blinked up at him, even though Nina was above average height, standing at 5'9, Spencer was  taller than her. "Well, you'll have to show me one day." She says, she was almost breathless for some reason. Spencer seemed to have that affect on her.

Before their conversation could go any further Emily walked out of the interrogation room, frustrated. "He's not our guy, but I think I know who is." She says.

...

They had caught the unsubs once again, the manager of that sleazy celebrity and an unfortunate schizophrenic girl.

Handing JJ an ice pack for her head that had gotten hit while trying to arrest them on her own.

"Thanks." She groans, flinching while putting it in her head.
"No worries, I'm glad you're okay." Nina gives her a small smile and pats her knee gently.
Slinking into the seat across from Spencer, who was rather absorbed by a book that read "Quantum Physics: advanced theories." She giggles softly catching his attention, furrowing his eyebrows at her, "what?" He asks confused.

Her eyes met his and she said. "I was always terrible at Physics In high school, and seeing you read that for fun made me think about how much I couldn't stand that class."

He smiles at her, " It was my favourite class."

Throwing her head back laughing, " of course it was, genius."
Spencer knew that most people would say those words to him with an annoyed tone, but looking at Nina and the adorable grin she had and the way her eyes were shining while looking at him, he knew she meant it in the best way possible.

With a smile he went back to his book.

Nina pulls out a cheesy romance novel that her cousin gave her and smiles. She's glad the case didn't extend into the weekend, she was really looking forward to the lecture with Spencer.
Although she would never admit it, it was mostly the 'with Spencer' part she was excited about.
