Why…?

Why did he invite you in again?

Spencer glared at you, you were sitting on the couch beside him, innocently skimming through one of the books that had been on his coffee table. You pretended not to notice his look, and you tried your damned hardest to keep the smirk off your face.

It had been about an hour since both of you had entered the young genius’s apartment. You two worked for the FBI, or more specifically the BAU and after work, Spencer had offered that you both get some food from an ‘awesome Indian restaurant that was open all night’.

Who were you to deny spending some time with the loveable genius?

Now, Spencer may have been regretting letting you into his home.

Why you may ask?

Because you keep stealing his Jell-O.

If there was one thing anyone knew about Spencer was that he loved gelatin. The sugary sweet confection was his weakness and he wasn’t very willing to share with others as you have learned tonight.

When he had gotten himself a small cup of the treat you had asked if you could have some. Spencer, of course, had told (more like stuttered) you that there wasn’t any left.

A good liar, the genius was not.

You weren’t going to accept that. For some reason you were determined to obtain the sweet by any means necessary. Even if that meant getting close to Spencer then you were willing to risk it. So you came up with a way to obtain the gelatin, by stealing some from his cup.

Somehow you managed to take whatever he was about to eat. His spoon would dip into the gelatin come out with the prize and you would swoop in and take it before Reid could even blink.

Now he was getting frustrated and you were playing innocent. It amused you to no end that he was getting so antsy over dessert.

You looked up at the genius. He was now staring down at his Jell-O with something close to longing. You choked down a laugh, “Spence,” He looked up, “You could just eat the thing you know, instead of staring at it.”

He glared at you again, this time you didn’t hold back your laughter.

“Funny (Name)…” Reid muttered.

“Oh come on,” You turned to him, “I was just teasing you Spence, I promise I won’t do it again,”

Brown eyes scrutinized you critically. You kept your expression as neutral as possible, after all a seasoned profiler like Reid could easily look through certain facades.

This time however he didn’t. With a satisfied nod he dunked his spoon into the cup and brought it up. Orange gelatin shook in his spoon and just as Reid was about to take a well deserved bite…

You reached forward, hit the spoon upward with your hand and that launched the gelatin upward. Reid’s eyes went wide, for some reason he leaned upward as if about to grab it. With quick reflexes, that only hours of training with Morgan could make, you leaned up onto your knees and caught the gelatin mid flight.

A smirk danced across your lips as Reid just gaped at you, balancing awkwardly on one knee. He then pouted while you chewed on your treat.

“(Name)!” He all but whined, “You promised,”

“You’re a profiler Spence,” You teased with a grin and tapped his nose for emphasis. “You should’ve called my bluff.” He rolled his eyes and tried to sit back down.

Somehow, Spencer had lost momentum and was falling backwards. In a moment of slight panic he grabbed the only thing he could to keep him upright; you. Of course, you hadn’t been expecting it so he basically took you down with him.

He fell back onto the couch with you on top of him. It was sudden and both of you were a little disoriented. Which is why neither really paid attention where the other was when Spencer sat up…and his lips collided with yours.

Both of your eyes widened in complete disbelief and shock.

You were sure you were blushing a bright red and you weren’t the only one. Spencer was also flushing a bright pink and could barely look you in the eye. There was a moment of very awkward silence. You desperately wanted to say something, anything to diffuse the tension or…to find out what this meant.

After all it was no secret to anyone but Reid, that you’ve had a crush on Spencer since joining the BAU. And you knew this was an accident but, could this have potentially meant something to him…?

“Spencer…” You whispered quietly.

A thoughtful look had replaced the mortification that was on his expression. Now Spencer regarded you with almost fascination, your blush deepened.

“Spence?” You tried again. “Wh…Why are you looking at me like that?”

In a rather bold  and surprising act, Reid leaned forward and clumsily pressed his lips against your own in a soft but lingering kiss. Your eyes went wide before they fluttered closed, your arms twining around his neck while his hands were planted on your waist.

You hadn’t expected for him to do something like that, not that you were complaining. His touch was gentle but somehow loving, and his kiss shy yet passionate. You lose yourself in the kiss, letting yourself drown in Spencer.

After a moment, both of you parted. You two were flushed, and gazing into each other’s eyes shyly. It was quiet for a moment but you two were still close with his arms around you and your hands on his shoulders.

“Why…Why’d you do that?” You questioned breathlessly after a beat.

Spencer blushed before he shrugged cutely, “You tasted like Jello.”
I was watching Criminal Minds and...this just happened. I don't know. All I know is I love Spencer Reid, so I decided to spread that love a little bit :) 
Enjoy!
