Despite what Spencer had been through before, Cat Adams’s was one of his worst traumas.

The psychological torture he faced from her was no less than awful. Cat and Lindsey were together responsible for drugging Spencer is Mexico with scopalamine, framing him for the murder of a woman in his hotel room and filling his car with drugs. He was left with so recollection of what actually happened and ended up in prison for three months. Three whole months that Spencer Reid spent in prison.

And those months in prison left him broken, scared and vulnerable - he put up a tough front for everybody, but you, his partner, were the only one to see and push through them.

But it wasn’t just prison that Cat Adams put him through. The kidnapping of his mother, her alleged pregnancy used to mess with his head, later discovered to be false. And- as her final act of revenge towards Spencer, kidnapping your father and sister.

Cat forcing you to watch her and Spencer make out in the doorway of your shared apartment, and the overwhelming fear that took over Spencer when he realized he might be losing you for good.

But it’s been weeks since Cat was executed. You and Spencer are cuddled together on the couch of your living room, a movie playing in the background as the two of you try to have as much contact with each other as possible, a telltale sign that he’s getting better. Although there hasn’t been a talk about what happened, not one where Spencer has been able to let go of all that happened to him.

You hope to change that tonight.
