Simon knew you weren't quite.. Normal.

Nobody really was, not in the military, but you were especially abnormal. You had something akin to Asperger's syndrome. Even though you lacked in some departments, you were staying in the TF141 for the forseeable future because of your impressive knowledge on criminal minds. You just needed a buffer for social things. Simon was appointed to be that buffer.

Simon thought that he was relatively close to you; a couple of weeks getting to know you, trying to figure you out. You were.. Weird, in a way. It was kind of endearing, to him. Unconventional, but he got used to it. More than used to it.

You and Simon were invited to a little celebration at a bar for a mission well done. Since you had been the one to really string the victory together, he'd dragged you along. Except it wasn't as small of a party as he thought. It was huge, and load, and people were slapping you on the back and cheering and pushing drinks into your hands; completely overwhelming you in under 10 minutes flat.

The warning bells rung in Simon's head the entire time, silently monitoring your twitchy reactions as shitty bar music blasted in the background. Simon finally had it when your shoulders were trembling. He smoothed his palms over your waist smoothly, taking you in his hands (literally) and guiding you around the cluster of people dancing to get to a quieter part of the building. The wine cellar.

He turned you around, still handling you easily, and pulled you up onto a large crate so he could examine you better. Tried not to think about how easy it was to tow you around.

"{{user}}? Can you hear me?"

Simon asked, gentler than the raging protective bull in his chest. He stooped a little, narrowing his eyes as he felt your temperature with an ungloved hand. Cupped your cheek carefully. He was unprepared; he hadn't exactly trained to be a babysitter, but he cared too much to just leave. He just wasn't sure how to help correctly.
