Spencer's POV
I was already sitting in the round table room but I saw Rin and Garcia round the corner as Pen walked Luna. I also saw Corinne slip me a wink and a giggle. I couldn't help but blush. And guess who noticed...

"Looks like you've got it pretty bad pretty boy huh?" Morgan teased. As usual all I could do but roll my eyes at him. The teasing quickly ended when Garcia walked in,

"My big handsome man look what I got!" She said holding out the puppy into his face. We all couldn't help but giggle at her youthful pleasure.

When Hotch entered everyone's mood changed and we took our usual seats. Corinne's was next to mine. Secretly she slipped her hand under the table and grabbed mine. This secret was going to be a tough one to keep concealed.

"Okay my gorgeous crime fighters Kevin Bamrick, age 8, was abducted from his home in Las Vegas. Also exactly every six months going back to 2010 a child his age has been abducted and found a week later in clean clothes with their ring finger missing. Other than the ring finger local authorities believe that they are connected because when they where each were abducted a pair of the previous victim shoes was found at the foot of their beds. Poor boys. Please find him guys." Garcia informed us.

Rin spoke up letting go of my hand, " how long has Kevin been missing?"

"Two days. That leaves you five. "

Everyone exchanged worried looks. "Wheels up in fifteen." Hotch said in his usual stern tone. Garcia said asked to her office leading the puppy, Rossi and Hotch grabbed their bags from their offices, Derek, JJ and Emily grabbed theirs off their desks. While everyone grabbed their bags and Rin was on her way out I ran and gave her a quick peck on the cheek.

"Spencey! You're making it harder to not blab it out!" She said through gritted teeth as a joke. After that she grabbed her bag and headed to the elevator with everyone else. I followed close behind.

Corinne's POV
'He's adorable' I couldn't help but think to myself as he ran towards the elevator. I wanted so bad to tell everyone about us but I knew that if we would it would be a poor decision. About ten minutes later us and the pilot arrived at the jet and were in the air five minutes later. My anxiety was getting better because I knew Spencer would be there to help me through it. As I read through the case files I got an idea.

" so if the unsub is dressing them in new clothes that's a sign of remorse. Also JJ whenever you go somewhere do you bring something of or something to remind you of Henry? Hotch what about for Jack?" JJ nodded but Hotch shook his head, " I think the unsubs a woman. What man would care about the boys shoes. They'd care more about underwear and there were no signs of sexual assault." I finished.

"Great job Agent Jennings," Rossi said giving me an approving nod. Then Garcia came over the video chat linked to the plane.

" Hello sexy agents. Anything I can do for ya!"

"Yes actually Mama," Derek spoke up, "run woman who's eight year old sons were either taken away from them or passed away. Then narrow it down to the woman who live or work within the comfort zone of the dump sites."

"Yep so I have a list of ten woman. Before you ask the files have been sent to your tablets already and paper copies to the station for our technophobe Dr. Reid. Penny G and Luna out," she hung up as my puppy let out a little bark. Penelope could always make my day.

"Okay so when we land Morgan,JJ and Rossi go the latest abduction site, Reid and Jennings you two go to the station and start to profile and go over the list of suspects, and then Prentiss and I will go and ask the parents of the previous ten victims some questions." We all nodded and went back to what we were doing. I decided to go get some coffee.

" Hey wanna come to the coffee cart with me?" I asked while slapping Spencer's knee with the back of my hand. He nodded. I placed my hand out and pulled him off of the couch and he followed me to the back of the jet. Derek looked up and gave me a nod along with a giggle. "Didn't you grow up in Las Vegas?" I asked knowing the answer already.

"Yep" he said while handing me a mug and turning on the coffee machine. "The police station is actually twenty two minutes and 43.547 seconds away from my childhood home." I nodded wanting so bad to kiss him right there and then. When the machine was turned on he poured the luxurious black liquid into my mug and added two sugars and two creams making my cup about 3/4's full. I thanked him and went back to my seat. He walked over about twenty seconds later. When I had finished my coffee there was still three hours left on the plane do I decided to close my eyes. The next thing I knew the world was black.

Spencer's POV
Corinne had fallen asleep about two and a half hours ago.

"Why don't you wake her up lover boy? Your the one who can't stop staring." Morgan managed to spit out in between chuckles.

I glared at him and then said, "maybe I will agent dark chocolate?" And with that I walked over to her side. I squatted down next to her placing my hand on her shoulder and gently shook her, " hey Rinny it's time to wake up. We are landing in twenty seven minutes and 32.609 seconds," she turned over and sat up like she was going for a kiss but then remembered and a frown came across her face.

She sat up and whispered into my ear, "I wish you could kiss me right now," this sent a shiver through my spine. As I stood up I turned around and gave her a wink.

When we landed everyone headed for the three different SUV's and hopped in. Corinne was driving today for a change.
