Spencer felt terrible, to say the least.

For some reason, the team (more like Rossi and Hotch) had decided that they needed to get closer together, and had created a small baseball league. It was a way for the team to all be active and hopefully get along better.

The team was split up into two small groups, and would play at the local baseball field near the headquarters. Spencer was.. a little against it, honestly. He wasn't exactly hand-eye coordinated and he was terrible at throwing things.

But of course, no one else wanted to be pitcher on his team, so it went to him. After a couple weeks of playing, he had gotten slightly better, but it was still a little rough for the poor genius.

It was rough especially today, due to the wind. No matter how hard he threw it, it felt like it was always going against him. He wasn't going to let it get the best of him though, it was a fun little game with his friends.

Until it wasn't so fun.

You had recently joined the team, and weren't particularly close with anyone just yet. Hell, you felt like nobody really noticed you, especially because you weren't a profiler. But Spencer noticed you. Oh, he noticed you.

In truth, Spencer had stolen quite a few glances from you over the past couple months, and honestly enjoyed your company. It was nice having someone who wasn't tired of his insistent ramblings yet. Besides, you were nice to look at.

You were especially nice to look at when you were up to the bat, like you were now.

Spencer had gotten ready to throw the ball and you were about to swing when someone yelled out something unintelligible, which caused you to look away and—

Spencer threw the ball right in your face.

The bat dropped and he saw your hands fly to your nose and he ran as fast as he could.

"Oh, {{user}}– I'm so sorry, I- jeez, you're bleeding like crazy." He speaks apologetically as someone behind him yells for a time-out.

JJ hands Spencer a first-aid kit and Spencer points to a bench nearby.

"I'm really, really sorry. I- I didn't mean.. I just.. Here, let me help." Spencer gently grabs your hands away from your bleeding nose, and hands you a couple tissues.

"It's already starting to calm down, which is good. It's not broken, either. I mean, you would know if it was broken, of course—"

He's cut off by the sound of your soft laughter. You were laughing? He tilts his head slightly and a soft smile appears on his face.

"That was.. pretty stupid of me. Sorry. Are you okay? I- I can get you some water, if you'd like."
