Holly's POV
(1 Day Later)

"I said I'm fine Em." I said through the phone to Emily, she was the only one who really knew what I had been doing for years and just how changed I really way. I glanced up from my seat to see JJ and Spencer walking towards me with bags of food. Chinese take out. "I've got to go-"

"Did you tell JJ?" She asked me, I felt the muscles in my throat tighten around the air now trapped inside. "She told you what happened to her right? That's were I went for two weeks a couple years ago." I had already figured that out. I nodded in understand meant even though she couldn't see me. "Holly I'm serious. JJ can help you." I screwed my eyes shut, my hand tight on my phone.

"I've got to go." I said and reached my phone away from my ear. I could hear Emily's protests on the other line before I hung up and shoved my phone violently into my pocket. Stumbling to the table, smiling as Spencer slid my food to me.

"Who was that?" He asked me with curiosity in his voice. I opened my mouth to say something but then went with a pressed lips smile apart from words, since mine had been failing me recently.

"An old friend of mine." I mumbled and he raised his eyebrows at me. "Hey I made friends at my old job." I was sure at some point they would all notice that I never said 'British Embassy', but 'old job'. Because then I would be lying to them and I hated that.

"I'll give," Morgan said with humor in his voice that I knew meant a tease. "Girl or guy?" He asked me, I rolled my eyes.

"She's a old friend." I insisted taking a sip of my coke, mixed. I flashed Spencer a smile that he returned. JJ watched up, me, carefully from her spot on the opposite side of Spencer. "Morgan not everyone uses the term 'friend' for someone they're sleeping with." I pointed out. His hand slapped his own chest in fake pain. Everyone broke at least a grin, if not a chuckle or two.

"Okay okay I see." Morgan said with his smirk plastered on his face. "Shots fired, don't mess with the Pretty Girl." We all chuckled while Spencer's unamused eyes flickered between Morgan and I. What was up with him?

"Spence?" JJ asked before I could finish chewing. Her eyes laced with concern, more appearing when it seemed like Spencer was broken from a trance. His eyes fresh like he hadn't been glaring at Morgan.

"Don't worry Pretty Boy, I'm not steeling your girl." Morgan teased, both Spencer and I's cheeks flushed a matching red while we both sunk out heads to out food, wanting the subject changed. "Tell you what kid, we get back, Garcia, Denton, you and I all go on a double date, what'ya say?" Spencer's face flushed more along with mine while Morgan spoke like I wasn't here.

"Oh are you and Garcia finally going to make that love child of yours?" Rossi teased but Morgan didn't blush, only rolled his eyes with a wide smirk. "And wouldn't your girlfriend Savannah be a bit upset if you took Garcia on a date?" Morgans face then dropped. His whole domineer changed.

"Savannah and I broke up." He mumbled and we all looked at him. Then he shrugged. "She couldn't handle the work hours and my so called cheating with Penelope." Morgan grumbled poking at his food, no, stabbing at his food.

"Actually a double date sounds great Derek." I said, his head snapping up as I ate my food to make it seem like what I was saying was casual. Truth was my blood pressure was through the roof, I didn't look at Spencer but I could tell he was wide eyes from my side view. He looked like a deer in headlights like he would fall over from a heart attack induced by stress and shock.

"Oh-okay." Morgan stammered as if he thought I was joking. Then he steadied himself and nodded once again. "Yeah sounds great, I'll tell Penelope." He said and pushed from his chair, stumbling a bit. I smiled with a nod. Going back to my food but before I could Spencer nudged my elbow, causing me to fumble my fork from my hand.

"Hey-"

"Holly what the hell was that?" Spencer practically hissed at me, I tried not to visibly flinch away from him but it was hard so I settled for only scooting my chair. I glanced around and everyone else was already on different subjects other then the double date I had just orchestrated.

"What?" I asked him while trying not to freak out myself. Why was he freaking out? Wasn't it clear I was trying to help Morgan?

"What? You just set us up on a double date." He hissed and this time I did flinch. It was obvious that he was being paranoid but about what? Did he just not like me as a person anymore? I bit my lip.

"You saw Morgan he's in pain-" Spencer still didn't look like he understood. "A night out with some friends will help and this way it's like it's his idea." Spencer's face then softened as he realized he had snapped at me for no reason. I rolled my eyes. His mouth hung open but I stood up and cut him off before he could speak again. "Sorry for trying to be a good friend, and a date with me would not be that bad."
