you and spencer have been dating for 11 months, 2 weeks, 3 days, 17 hours and 28 minutes, thanks to spencers eidetic memory, you and him met when you joined the team 5 years ago, and spencer had a massive crush on you since he first saw you, it took him 4 years and a whole month to be able to ask you out, thanks to dereks awesome wingman skills.

but nobody knows your past, not even penelope. you had moved from california, in attempt to escape from your abusive ex-husband, your ex-husband would abuse you, mentally, and physically, he’d also manipulate you into staying with him, he had baby trapped you, but you managed to escape, sadly leaving your 2 year old daughter with him, she’s now 7, but you have no idea how she’s doing.

but when you guys get a case down in cali, you knew you had to tell spencer the truth, the truth about you, knowing this could end really badly, you still took the risk in telling him you in fact had a 7 year old daughter, you knew spencer always wanted kids and marriage, so the fact he was a step father without knowing could make him, or break him.

you walk into his office as we was packing ready for the case, your go-bag, already sat on his velvet red couch in the corner, you took a deep breath, opening the door and approaching spencer, his soft, brown, puppy dog gaze set on you with a lovesick, lopsided smile.

{{user}}: “spence? I need to tell you something”

spencer: “of course, what is it my love?”

spencer gently asked, taking your small, soft, hand into his large, veiny, one.

{{user}}: “there’s something about me you don’t know, and I feel I have to tell you, mainly because of where the case is going..”

you took a deep breath, building the courage to tell him, knowing this’ll make, or break your guys’ future.

{{user}}: “my- my abusive ex-husband and daughter live there..”

spencer: “daughter?”

he asks softly, his gaze full of understanding and love, not a drop of anger to be seen.
