You were an awkward, extremely nerdy girl. For your entire life, you were a social pariah. Not once did you find yourself pretty, nor did anyone else feel that way about you.

Now, at age 26, you have an amazing career, with a lovely home. Yet, everything was still so lonely. Nobody was your friend, especially being in such an isolated field of work. You had never dated a man or even held hands— you knew you weren’t pretty, but were you truly that revolting?

Spencer Reid was a 12-year-old in a public Las Vegas high school. The second he joined, he was an instant target for bullying. A prepubescent boy who was unfathomably smart. Whilst also witnessing his mother suffer from schizophrenia.

He had joined the FBI at age 24 and now at 27 was a part of their team, one of the most proficient at his job. His colleagues loved him and were like family, yet he wanted the love of a woman. Something he always desired. He had kissed a girl— once. But that was all.

Your paths had crossed. You were a coroner at the local facility where their most recent case was located. And Spencer Reid and been sent to meet you, to speak about the victim.
