Paranoia - s.reid

Documented

Rossi's house was definitely a signature get together spot for the BAU. 

The entire team were in his living room, either splayed out on the sofa or sat on the carpet, each with a glass of wine of beer while JJ nursed a soda due to being roughly 6 months into her pregnancy. 

Liz and Spencer's wedding date was exactly a week away and excitement was radiating throughout the entire room. Emily stood up, clinking her glass. 

"Alright, everyone. Since our lovely couple here are getting hitched next week and tying themselves to each other for the rest of their lives, with Spencer's permission I've decided to play this." She whipped out a tape and Liz immediately recognized it, a grin on her face. "Do you want to tell us what this is?"

"When Penny and I got together I decided to document our relationship." Everyone cheered when Emily began playing it on the TV.

"Is this thing even on? Ellie why are we doing this?"  Spencer's confused face finally came into view, an excited Liz peaking over his shoulder. "Because, in the future if we want to look back on the good bits of our relationship, we can just watch this and we'll keep adding to it." She kissed his cheek. He couldn't stop the smile from growing on his face. 

"So today's date is December 17th. Penny and I just finished work and we're at his apartment, and no one is even suspicious!"

"Maybe because you make sure I go into the office 10 minutes before you do and we don't come within a foot of each other unless absolutely necessary?" Spencer teased.

"Hey, you almost kissed me infront of Hotch a week ago at the shooting range."

"It's a natural instinct already! And you waited a full five minutes after he left to even touch me."

Liz rolled her eyes. "It's called being safe, genius. We finished a case last week, an LDSK. According to Penny, Hotch kicks like a 9 year old girl." She mused. 

"And Ellie's leg got grazed by a bullet, but she's acting all macho like it's nothing."

"It is nothing! Anyways, I think that's it for today. We'll be back soon!"

"Bye!" Spencer called out, bringing Liz in for a kiss before ending the recording.

"It's Christmas, ladies and gentlemen!" The camera was propped up on the table, showcasing the couple in their Christmas jumpers and the decorated tree in the back. "It's our first Christmas together as a couple, exactly 23 days after we got together." Spencer smiled, he was definitely warming up to the idea of filming themselves.

"Alright, love, close your eyes." He did as he was told, reluctantly closing his eyes, grinning when a small box was placed in his hands. "Open." He ripped open the packaging, feeling like a giddy child. He pulled out a silver watch. His mouth fell open. "What do you think?" Liz's bottom lip was caught between her teeth as she anxiously waited for his response.

"I love it." He grinned, putting it on over his sleeve before joining their lips. "Here." He handed a large box to her, watching her face light up.

"That's a big box." Her eyebrows shot up as she slowly took the lid off, revealing a certain purple material. Pulling it out, it unfolded to reveal a dress. A gorgeous purple dress that Liz already knew she'd wear to multiple team outings. "It's beautiful, Penny. I love it! Thank you!" She squealed. "I'm going to wear it tonight!"

"We're officially 3 hours into 2005 and we just got home." Liz smiled tiredly, turning to Spencer.
