Chapter 2 Car troubles
"If you need anything or have any questions my door is always open." Hotch gave a slight smile as Meghan nodded and pranced down the stairs.
She plopped down in the black desk chair and sighed down at the stack of papers. "Shouldn't you be in the lab?" Morgan asked, leaning towards her.
She gave a shrug and leaned back. "Yes, but I have to fill out all these before they'll let me anywhere near the computers."
Everyone chuckled and she glared as she picked up her pen. She sat there, focused on the papers, for four hours without even realizing the time.
"Finally!" She exclaimed, dropping the pen and standing up. She looked around, noticing everyone but Reid were gone.
"How long have I been sitting there?" Meghan asked as she raised her arms above her head, a patch of her smooth skin and her belly button showed as she did so.
Spencer blushed and rubbed the back of his neck, looking to the floor. "A-about four hours and six point three seconds."
She laughed and dropped her arms, adjusting her revealed belly ring before tugging her shirt back down. "Did-uh- did that hurt?" He pointed at her stomach.
"What? This?" She pulled it back up and toyed with the small anchor charm. "Not really. Well, for a second, but then it was no big deal."
He nodded awkwardly and looked back up as she spoke again. "Where's the rest of the team? Wow I'm so not use to saying that!"
He chuckled at her. "Well, Morgan left to help Garcia pack, Henry got sick and Will's still at work so Prentiss went to help her, and Hotch and Rossi are in their offices. They told me we could leave early, but you were so focused."
"Who's Henry and Will?"
"JJs son and husband." He replied immediately. "My god son."
"Really? Do you have any real kids?"
He laughed, causing her to smile. "No. Absolutely not. Not that I don't want them! I just- well I've never really had a -a girl friend."
She raised her eyebrows and jutted out her hip. "How old are you? Sorry for the whole twenty questions thing."
He shook his head. "No problem. I'm uh twenty- six. How old are you?"
"Twenty- five. What kind of doctor are you?"
"Not the medical kind." He smiled, trying his hardest not to talk too technically. "I have two BA's and three Phd's."
"Not too shabby. What are you still doing here?" She asked as she brushed her blonde hair off of her shoulders and heaved the strap of her bag up to rest in its place.
"What?" He stood as well and began to gather his things.
"You said they told you to leave, but you stayed?" She fell in step beside him as they walked to the elevator.
"Well, I- uh- I didn't want you to be here alone, seeing as it's your first day."
His face was now a crimson color and he stepped inside the elevator.
"That was so sweet!" She exclaimed, laughing.
They chatted aimlessly the entire way to their cars. Realizing they were at their destination, they turned to face each other.
"Well thank you."
He frowned. "For what?"
"For keeping me company today." He smiled and felt a warmth spread throughout his cheek as she rested her hand there for second. "See you tomorrow."
She skipped to her blue bug and flung the door open. Spencer smile to himself and made his way to his own car. He climbed in and strapped himself in, adjusting the mirror. As he went to close the door, he heard the familiar sound of a car refusing to crank, along with a groan.
Laughing lightly, he pulled out of the parking spot and slowly approached the bug. Rolling down his window, he called out, "Need a ride?"
