Let It Snow (Criminal Minds)

Chapter 2

The team was back in Rossi's office, since it was warmest place in the BAU, talking and laughing. Reid looked around the room, Emily was leaning against Hotch who had his arm around her and a blanket around bother of them, Rossi was beside them laughing at a comment that came from Emily, and Garcia and Morgan were cuddling on the couch, she was grinning as Morgan whispered something in her ear. But he didn't see JJ. Once everyone was quiet Reid spoke up,

"Where's JJ?" He asked

They all shrugged,"I think she said she was going to the bathroom." Emily said

Reid nodded as they continued to talk. She'd been gone to long to be going to the bathroom, so he stood and went to go find her. It didn't take very long, she was sitting by the window in the bullpen. He walked over,

"Hey." He said softly

JJ looked up and smiled,"Hey Spence."

"Mind if I join you?"

She smiled, she took his hand and gently pulled him closer. He sat down beside her. He felt butterflies inside him as she moved closer to him.

"Why are you by yourself?" He asked

"Sometimes I just like to watch the snow fall." She smiled as she turned back to the window.

Reid smiled. She was so beautiful, he just wanted to wrap his arms around her. He'd always had a crush on her and he always got that same butterfly feeling in his stomach. But for the past year or so, it's been getting worse.

"You okay?" JJ asked breaking him away from his many thoughts.

Reid turns and nodded, his lips pressed together,"Yeah I'm just...cold." He lied

"Here let's go get another blanket." She said standing. She took Reid's hands, pulled her up with him and they walked to the conference room. Reid stood in the doorway while she got the blanket that was on the table. She folded more and started slowly walking backwards as she did,

"I'm not even sure who brought these in. I guess they were-" she started to turn around and as she did she bumped into Reid. She'd gotten pretty close, if he was a little shorted they'd be kissing.

She couldn't help but look into his beautiful soft brown eyes. She looked at him for a minute, he looked good, his hair was long and framed his face Perfectly,"Sorry." She finally said

He shook his head,"It's okay." He gave her a smile, of course he didn't mind the little distance. He leaned down and placed his lips to hers. It was pretty quick, a little too quick. JJ kissed back, she wasn't gonna pretend she didn't like it, cause she did. It was nice. She was pretty sad when he broke away. She looked at him surprised, but he couldn't hide a smile,

"What was that for?"

He simply looked up, she followed his eyes and looked at the mistletoe that was hanging above them. She looked back down to his eyes.

"Wouldn't wanna break tradition." He smiled

Her smile grew. His confidence grew a lot after his bold move. Maybe this would be a good Christmas after all.
