Please continue to review because the wonderful feedback makes me want to update faster.

Derek Morgan and Spencer Reid sat on a blanket Derek had sat out on the lawn of a house he was renovating inthe country. They had been dating for a year and their relationship though sometimes rocky, was still going very well.

"Look a shooting star, make a wish." Spencer said, pointing to the sky.

"My wish already came true." Derek said wrapping his arms around the younger man. Spencer laid his head on Derek's shoulder, smiling happily while picking at Derek's shirt. Derek kissed Spencer and Spencer leaned back so that he was laying on his back against the blanket. Spencer pulled Derek so that he was laying on top of him and wrapped his arms around his neck.

"I'm not ready to go back to work." Derek said the next day as he and Spencer were taking Clooney for a walk.

"Me either, I like it out here with you." Spencer stated while walking right beside the older man and grabbed his hand. Clooney was having to much fun barking at squirrels and scaring them up trees to pay attention to them. Clooney liked Spencer when Derek wasn't around. But when Derek was clooney was jealous of the man that stole Derek's attention away from him. Clooney was getting better, he no longer growled or tried to bite at Spencer. But he still barked whenever Spencer walked into the house and refused to come to Derek when Spener was around.

"I'm sorry, I made your dog mad at you." Spencer apologized again.

"I told you a hundred times already don't be, Clooney will get over it." Derek said.

"He thinks I'm trying to take you away from him." Spencer told him sadly.

"But you're not, he'll just have to learn to share me." Derek retorted just as Clooney saw a cat and decided to chase it. Derek ran after the black lab and reteriver mixed trying to grab a hold of his leash.

"Clooney get back here!" Derek yelled right before he fell in a mud puddle. Spencer laughed loudly unable to stop himself at the sight of Derek covered in mud. Clooney walked slowly up to Derek his tail down and head bowed knowing his owner was mad. Spencer walked back to the house with a very muddy and angry Derek. Spencer was still laughing, he couldn't stop himself, Derek looked like something that crawled out from a swamp. Clooney got yelled at for running off before Derek went to take a shower.

The day before Spencer and Derek had to return to Quintico Derek planned a romantic evening for him and Spencer. Derek cooked a nice dinner, set out a bottle of wine, and lit a candle.

"What's all this about?" Spencer asked coming into the kitchen after he was done writing a letter to his mother.

"A date pretty boy." Derek replied pulling a chair out for his younger lover. Twenty minutes into dinner Derek had barely said anything, his thoughts were far away.

"Derek what's wrong?" Spencer asked concern lacing his voice, looking at his dark lover.

"I love you." Derek said suddenly knowing if he didn't say it at that moment it would take him even longer then it already did.

"What?" Spencer asked surprised by Derek's sudden confession.

"I love you." Derek repeated scared that Spencer didn't feel the same way as he did.

"I love you too Derek." Spencer said standing up and pulling Derek up as well. Spencer wrapped his arms around Derek and pressed his forehead against his shoulder. Derek became concerned when he felt tears seeping through his shirt.

"Why are you crying baby?" Derek asked pulling back and wiping his tears off his cheeks.

"No reason, I was just afraid that you were going to break up with me, that's why I thought you were being so quiet." Spencer replied.

"No baby boy, I will never leave you." Derek said kissing his younger lover.
