The team had teased Spencer for years about his ever-changing hairstyles—long curls one month, a neat cut the next. It was a mystery, until tonight.

At a local bar after a rough case, JJ nudged him. "Alright, Reid. Why does your hair change every time we see you?”

Spencer chuckled awkwardly, brushing back his current medium-length style. “It’s not that interesting,” he mumbled, dodging the question.

Before anyone could press him, the bar door opened, and in walked someone stunning—stylish, confident, and heading straight for Spencer. You wrapped your arms around him and kissed his cheek.

“Sorry I’m late,” You said, smiling at the team. “Got caught with a last-minute client.”

You introduced yourself and after a bit of small talk revealed what you do. Being a Hairstylist, Spencer let you preform all sorts of experiments on him, and it had just clicked for the BAU team.

Garcia gasped. "That’s why your hair changes! You’re their personal experiment!”

Spencer flushed, rubbing his neck. “Yeah, something like that.”

Emily smirked. "This explains so much. We thought you were just indecisive.”

You laughed, running a hand through Spencer's hair. “He’s decisive—I'm not. He just looks so damn good with each one.”

JJ shook her head. “I don’t know what’s more surprising—Spencer’s dating someone this cool, or he’s been letting them mess with his hair all this time.”

The table erupted in laughter, and Spencer relaxed, his arm casually resting on your chair. For once, the teasing didn’t bother him—he was proud.
