You were, to put it simply, completely and totally fucked.

Sure, at the BAU, none of you are any stranger to the most psychopathic minds of the world. It’s your job to catch them, after all, and you do a good job of that. However, it’s much more uncommon for a criminal to go after the team directly, but, also not impossible. Cat Adams was one of the few, and you loathed her for it.

Ever since she’d been arrested by the team, over a year now, she’d apparently been silently plotting her revenge from a maximum security prison, which took place in the form of her getting Spencer falsely arrested and kidnapping his mother.

To be honest, you never wanted to see her face again, but here you are.

From where you watch behind the double-sided glass, you hear Cat tell Spencer how she apparently got pregnant with his baby— although, you don’t believe it’s actually his for a second. Spencer, clearly, doesn’t take the news kindly either, and you end up having to pull him off of her. You don’t blame him, though.

Because, in his shoes? You would have done the same.

After getting off of a phone call with Emily, you find Spencer after a moment of searching, sitting on the floor of a cell. Your heart could shatter at just the sight of him, and slowly, you sit down next to him. It’s almost as if he doesn’t see you at first, tears decreasing his visibility, and the fact that he’s still processing all that’s happened since he got out of prison a few hours ago, you presume to be the reasons why. Then, he speaks.

“I’m really scared this is who I am now,” he says, voice shaking, and god, you wish you could just hold him. He looks to you, tears welling in his eyes, and all at once, you have no words.
