Reid would never admit this to anyone but himself.

This is so relaxing. I think I am going to start coming here. he thought to himself as he felt the knots and tense muscles in his back start to loosen and vanish. He hadn't even realized those were there to begin with considering how thin he is but this was one of those times when he was proven wrong.

The scented oil that had been rubbed onto his skin smelled wonderful and he made a mental note to see if there were any scented candles with the same smell. He would have to get some for his apartment.

But for now he was going to enjoy this back rub.

"What'd I tell ya?" Garcia mused as she noticed Reid's form was a little more relaxed.

"I do feel a little more at ease." Reid answered. "But don't think this means that I'm going to be coming here often."

"Oh, I wouldn't dream of it sweet cheeks." Garcia said in a tone that Reid knew she didn't believe him.

Reid lightly sighed as he entered his apartment and shut the door behind him. He walked into his kitchen and started a pot of coffee. As he waited for his beverage he took out his phone and turned it back on.

When it was on again he noticed that he had a text message.

From Lila!

Reid quickly opened the message and read what it said.

Hey Spence. I took an acting spot a few days ago and it's going to be near Quantico. I was wondering if you might be able to give me a tour of the town Just you and me. Let me know if you can.

Reid lightly chuckled and realiezd his face felt flushed. After collecting himself, Reid replied to her text.

Hi Lila. I thought for sure that you didn't have my number anymore. Not that it's a bad thing of course. But yeah, I can show you around town when you get here. Just let me know what day you arrive and I can pick you up from the airport.

He sent the text and waited. He was so on edge about Lila's reply that he didn't even notice his coffee was done.

His message alert rang and he quickly answered it.

Great! I arrive after tomorrow around two. Hope that's not in the way of anything.

No. Of course not. I'll be there right on time to pick you up. You can even stay with me that way you don't have to stay in a hotel and pay so much to stay there.

Just as adorable as I remember. OK. Hope you don't mind having a lady in your house. ;) See you soon Spence.

Reid felt himself blush more and his phone nearly slip from his hand. Luckily he managed to hold onto it though his fingers were a bit shaky as he replied.

I don't mind. I look forward to having you here. I'll see you soon. Have a safe travel.

Thanks. See you soon. :)

Reid closed his phone and lightly sighed. Then he whirled around and looked at his apartment.

"Gotta clean." he declared as he went for his cleaning items all the while forgetting about his fresh made coffee.
