So I have written before for other fandoms but not yet for Criminal Minds. I've decided to do a high school story with the team. Here are the ages I've got planned for everyone.

Hotch - 20
Gideon - 21
Rossi - 20
Emily - 19 (She skipped school alot and was detained)
JJ - 17(Skipped a year)
Derek - 18
Penelope - 18
Spencer - 13

Penelope's family and Spencer's family have known each other for years even before the two were born. And Reid's mom is normal-ish.

Chapter 1: Busted

Senior year. Supposedly the best year of high school. At least for any normal teenager. That's what he'd heard from all of his fellow senior classmates. Unfortunately for him, most of his fellow classmates thought he was freak. After all, it isn't often a 13 year old is a senior in high school with an above average IQ that was higher than that of most adults.

According to one of his few best friends, Penelope Garcia, it made him extra special. Spencer Reid sat patiently at his desk, hands folded together as he awaited the bell to lunch period. He had finished both his classwork as well as his homework and was eager to see the few friends that he had. As he waited, he felt a light thud against his head. His head jerked around, spotting Jennifer Jareau, both his best friend and secret crush(or not so secret crush according to Derek Morgan). She flashed him a bright smile and waved at him lightly.

Spencer felt his cheeks turn rosy pink with a warm heat. He waved back shyly. JJ pointed at the piece of paper that had hit him, indicating he should pick it up.

Spencer picked the paper up, unfolding it. Are you joining us for lunch or bailing on us again?

He nibbled his lip as he debated on what he was planning to do for lunch. Most days, he'd drop by the cafeteria and say hi to everyone and head off to the library. Rarely, he'd actually join his friends to eat. Spencer scribbled his response in his neat, scrawly handwriting.

I'll join you.

He turned, just enough to toss the note back to the beautiful blonde. She smiled as she grabbed the note. JJ quickly read his reply and looked up, giving him a thumbs up.

Spencer hummed lightly, closing his eyes. He had another 4 minutes and 37 seconds before the bell rang. He tapped his fingers lightly on the desk, mentally counting the time until he and JJ went off to meet at their spot under the stairs with Penelope and Derek. The rest of their friends usually met them at the cafeteria. Spencer sighed, jumping a bit as the bell went off. He remained seated as most of the classroom emptied. JJ walked over the the young male and smiled, waiting. Spencer stood up, draping his messenger bag over his chest as the duo walked out the door.

"So what'd you think of the lesson Ms. Anders gave?" JJ asked, looking down at the boy genius. Spencer shook his head.

"It wasn't correct." He shrugged. "I tried to tell her she had the formulas wrong." He huffed. "But she refused to listen to me because I'm 'just a little boy who knows nothing.', "He grumbled. JJ laughed lightly.

"She just doesn't want to be proven wrong by a 13 year old 'little' boy." She teased. Spencer's cheeks turned pink, mumbling a quiet. "I'm not a little boy."

JJ smiled, ruffling his curls. "I know, Spence. You're a brilliant young man." She replied, pausing as they rounded the corner to their spot beneath the stairway. Spencer, who had turned his attention to some other direction, collided with the tall blonde.

"JJ, wha-" He started before spotting exactly what his best friend/crush was gaping at. Beneath the stairs, seemingly entangled in one another were two of their best friends, Derek and Penelope, lips locked tightly together. Spencer's face heated up darkly. JJ giggled, covering her mouth.

Penelope, hearing the giggle, ripped herself away from a now confused Derek. She pushed Derek away, trying to recollect herself. Derek reached up, scratching his head in confusion before spotting the other blonde, laughing. His face turned deep red. "I- uh... I can explain?" He offered.

Spencer, cheeks still pink, snickered softly. "I think this explains it all on it's own." He piped in, holding up his phone. Derek and Penelope both gaped at the youngest of their group.

"Did you take a picture?" Penelope demaned. Spencer nodded. Derek shifted slightly before darting towards the boy genius, who squealed and tore off towards the lunch room. JJ laughed harder, using the wall to support herself up. Penelope ran her hand over her face as her once secret boyfriend chased their little genius. She smiled, looking at the younger blonde.

"Ready to go or are you not done yet?" She asked. JJ wiped her eyes, grinning.

"Nah, I'm finished." She responded, grabbing her bag she had dropped during her laughing fit. Penelope shook her head, unable to prevent the smile from coming to her face. "So how long have you and Derek been sneaking around?"

Penelope felt her ears heat up. "19 months." She answered, suddenly shy. JJ nodded.

"I called it!" She mused as they walked into the cafeteria. The pair of blondes, looked towards their table. Derek had his head on the table as Emily laughed and chatted about the picture with Spencer. Penelope let out a small groan, head dipping backwards. JJ looked at her with a small smile. "What?"

"We're never going to live this down..." She replied, slouching as they grabbed their lunches and found their normal seats. JJ grinned.

"Probably not." JJ mused, sitting between Spencer and Emily. Emily wore a huge grin as Penelope laid her hand on Derek's back, whispering to him. He shook his head, sitting up.

"I'm getting my lunch and abandoning you." He replied as he went up to get his lunch. JJ and Emily burst out laughing again. Spencer, who had let his attention be lost on his friends, ate his lunch in his own little peaceful world.

Penelope pouted, watching her boyfriend sit a few tables away. Emily grinned, having finally stopped laughing. "Aww, poor, Pen. Your man left you all alone with us." She joked. Penelope gave her a look. JJ let out an 'Ohhh!' as Emily's eyebrow arched.

"What exactly are you planning on doing, Miss Penny Pen?" She asked with a hint of teasing in her voice. Penelope wiggled her finger, a dark grin crossing the other girl's face. Emily's face fell, realizing she was going to be in trouble with her younger friend. She knew not to mess with the normally sweet and bubbly blonde. When Penelope got upset, she played dark and dirty.

"Aww damn..." She groaned, getting up as the end of lunch bell went off. Spencer jumped up, ridding his tray of the empty paper plate and other trash. Before any of the girls could respond the curly boy genius had vanished, not doubtedly to his next class that he shared with Penelope.

"Someone is an eager little bee." Penelope chirped, smiling. JJ hummed.

"Don't you guys have chem or something of that sort next?" She asked. Penelope nodded as the girls finally made it to the trash bin.

"He really enjoys lab days." She replied, eyes flickering after Emily who was in a hurry. JJ nodded, pausing at the fork in the hallway. Penelope flashed a smile. "Later, JJ!"

JJ nodded, smiling back. She waved as she started off towards her own class. "Bye, Pen!"

Penelope waved back, turning down her own hall pathway. As she started walking, she felt a pair of hands grab her waist. She jumped, turning as she perpaired to get after whoever had grabbed her. She lit up when she found her boyfriend there, grinning. "Hey, baby girl." He hummed, leaving down to give her a quick peck before letting her go. "I'll meet you outside of chem after class." He said, giving her a quick kiss again. She nodded. "Okay!" She sighed, dreamily.

"I love you, baby girl!" He called over his shoulder as he walked to his class. Penelope smiled as she quickly made her way into her chem class with Spencer. She slid into her seat beside her boy wonder. He looked at her curiously before turning to take out his notebook for the class.

As they waited for class to begin, Penelope's phone vibrated. She took out her phone, reading the text she'd recieved.

Chocolate Thunder: Love you, my Tech Goddess. See you after class is done. Can't wait.

Anyway. Until next time. Later~
