a/n: this is just a little one shot i’ve had sitting in my notes for a while and i thought it was cute
—-
reid had been waiting for approximately 37 minutes. they were supposed to meet at 4:30, but now that it was steadily approaching 5:10 spencer was getting worried. he glanced towards the door of the cafe one more time, hoping he’d see her bustling in, full of apologies and raindrops spilling off her coat. 
with a sigh, he stood up, placing a couple bills on the table as an apology. he cracked his knuckles, rubbed his eyes, adjusted his coat and walked towards the door. 
and it’s as his hand reached for the handle that she came flying in. 
she fluttered about in her usual chaos, but spencer could feel something was off. her chest was heaving, and she kept her eyes trained at her feet as if to avoid looking at him. 
“spence i’m so sorry, i got caught up at the school and then there was traffic and then the principal called and just so much has happened today and i know you wanted to meet with me today and i’m sorry that i’m such a mess right now i would never want you to see me like this i just-“ he cut her off by tilting her chin up and gently pressing his lips to hers. 
he could taste her salty tears, wiping them away with his thumb as they continued to stream down her cheeks. when he finally pulled away, she sniffled, eyebrows furrowing. 
“spencer i’m literally a crying mess right now. how could you possibly think to kiss me right now?” she asked, bewildered. he immediately back tracked, pulling away his hand. 
“oh my god i am so sorry, i am so so sorry, i just thought we sort of, uh you know, connected, and i just- oh my god i can’t believe i did that i’m genuinely so sorry,” he sputtered, backing away. she stood silent for a second, sniffling and wiping their tears off their face. 
and then she rushed forward, letting her hands run around his waist, slipping under his shirt, spreading across the expanse of his back. one hand slipped out of his shirt and up to the back of his neck. 
and she was pulling him in. 
kissing him. 
oh. 
oh. 
his hands jumped from her hips to her hair, her jaw to her waist, tugging at her, pulling her closer. he savored every movement of her lips, drank in every breath she took in between kisses. 
when they finally broke apart, spencer was speechless. he just stared down at her, hands still on her cheeks while hers still rested in his hair and on his back. he couldn’t help the smile that broke over his face. it almost hurt how hard he was smiling, eyes glittering down at her as she broke into a breathless, teary smile in return. 
he leaned forward, pressing his lips to her forehead and taking a moment to just envelop all his senses in her. 
“spence?” her voice broke him out of his silent reverie. he hummed in response, pulling away to look her in the eyes again. 
“can we just eat at your place?” 
he laughed, running his hand down her arm before interlocking their fingers. 
“let’s go.”
