i grabbed my own 𝐟𝐚𝐭𝐞 with two hungry hands, pulling && pushing && molding my 𝒍𝒊𝒇𝒆, leaving smudges && dirty fingerprints all over a once 𝒄𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒏 𝒔𝒐𝒖𝒍.
⠀⠀damn . he was really good at compulsion ,
⠀⠀drawing her in and leaving her hanging for
⠀⠀so much more than he was giving her right
⠀⠀now .
⠀⠀pressing her lips together , she allowed
⠀⠀herself a moment of calm as he stepped
⠀⠀away .

⠀⠀" either that , or garcia's found something
⠀⠀about our unsubs that we can use to find
⠀⠀them . "
⠀⠀she's back in work mode , thoughts locked
⠀⠀onto the case —— but there's still that
⠀⠀lingering feeling with spencer . . .

⠀⠀" we're still on call , you know . we're not even
⠀⠀supposed to be here . " dark eyes gaze into
⠀⠀his , brows knitted as she smiles softly at him .
⠀⠀" you can't make me want to leave with you ,
⠀⠀not now . "
⠀⠀she and spencer were friends . before all of
⠀⠀this , they were friends . and yes , she really
⠀⠀thought he was cool , and smart , and handsome .
⠀⠀but that's all they were . friends .
⠀⠀she honestly didn't realize spencer wanted
⠀⠀something like this
+

⠀⠀she tightened her grip on his hand , glancing down
⠀⠀at their intertwined fingers before looking back up
⠀⠀at him , brows knitting slightly .
⠀⠀" spencer . " she mumbles , her voice just
⠀⠀barely louder than the music floating from
⠀⠀the inside of the bar .
+
+
⠀⠀despite her fluster , her lips curled up into
⠀⠀a sideways smile . this was new , this sort
⠀⠀of flirtation , but not exactly unwelcome .
⠀⠀" it depends on what kind of touch
⠀⠀you're looking for , doctor . "
⠀⠀the contact is . . . honestly , quite nice , and
⠀⠀beth would've been lying to herself if she said
⠀⠀she wasn't just a little interested in spencer .
⠀⠀after all , he was intelligent , kind , funny and ,
⠀⠀well , real handsome .
+
+
⠀⠀cheeks , and she can only hope that the
⠀⠀lighting in the bar is dim enough to hide it and
⠀⠀give her a little semblance of control when
⠀⠀she replies . trying to be much more
⠀⠀nonchalant than she felt like she was .
