Counting Stars (A Spencer Reid Story) (Completed)

Chapter Four

*Spencer's P.O.V*

"So Lilly thinks he's in his late forties to early fifties, and he is representing his daughter?" Rossi asked and I nod. Lilly was talking to Hotch and Morgan about something.

"Yes that is what she thinks, she also thinks the unsub is a male, and he might have some horrible memories of what happened to him when he was younger. Which when he saw the memories he took it out of his daughter," I say. I looked at her.

"You like her," J.J says. I looked back at them.

"No, I don't. She is just a good friend and knows what to say," I say. Plus I already knew she liked Morgan.

"Oh say what you want to hear Spence, but we all know the truth," J.J says walking away. Rossi smiles and walks away also. I rolled my eyes and followed them.

"...He is a white male also," Lilly says. I walked up to them.

"Hey, how is it going?" I asked them.

"We got our profile," Hotch says. "All thanks to our newest profiler Lilly Armstrong." She blushes. Eli walked up.

"Did you get a profile?" He asks Hotch and Hotch nods. "OK, I'll get the rest of the police in here." We got the team gathers and told them about the profile.

*Lilly's P.O.V*

As everyone gathered in I sat at the table while everyone else stood. Spencer stood close to me. As everyone was in here we started. They all had notepads and pens to write down the information.

"We think the unsub is a white male in his late forties to early fifties," Hotch starts.

"We also think this unsub might have had a daughter who walked out on him around the age of twenty-five or twenty-six," Morgan says.

"He might have gone through a phase of his life where he got abused and raped by his mother or father and he was taking his bad memories out on his daughter," Spencer says.

"These victims represent the daughter. How the make-up was, how the hair looked, and how she was dressed," I say.

"So he might be going after his daughter for walking out on her," J.J says.

"He took all the victims when they were drunk, so the daughter must have gotten drunk a lot," Rossi says.

"If you find this person don't go near him because he could be triggered with the slightest touch," Hotch says. "Thank you." They all walked off and we went back to doing our work. I rubbed the back of my neck. Spencer came over to me.

"How are you?" He asked me.

"I'm fine, what about you?" I asked him. He licked his lips.

"I'm fine. Just worried about you," He says.

"You don't have to be," I say. He walks off. Soon Derek came up.

"OOo what was that all about. Him asking you out on a date," He teases me.

"No, he just wanted to know how I was," I say.

"Yeah, yeah. We all know how he feels around you," He says.

"I am not going to ask him on a date. He is going through some tough crap, and right now he needs a friend," I say. He walks off. I get off the table and sit in a chair.

*Lilly's P.O.V*

"Reid, Armstrong. It's getting late. You guys go to the hotel and get some rest," Hotch says.

"No I'm fine," Spencer says. I looked at him.

"You're tired. I can tell," I say.

"So," He says.

"Get some rest," I say. I walked out with Spencer following me. We get into the SUV and we drove to the hotel. As we drove we had our own little conversation going.

"Lilly do you know why I don't get any rest?" He asked me.

"Let me guess. You're scared of seeing her. Being sucked into a whole world where it doesn't exist and you being pulled out by reality," I say.

"Yeah, how did you know?" He asked me.

"I did the same thing. It doesn't work. The more sleep you lose the more you can hallucinate," I say.

"Did you know there are nineteen different hallucinations," He started.

"Spence we're here. Can you tell me them later?" I asked him. I parked the car and he nods. We walked out and into the hotel. Spencer went to get the key card. Once he did we got into the elevator and he pushed his thumb into floor four. Once we heard the elevator door ding, we walked out. We went to our door and Spencer swiped the key card and we went inside. I looked around and saw we had a kitchen, living room, bedroom, and a bathroom. I looked in the bedroom and there were two beds. I put my bag on the floor of the bedroom and lied on the bed. Spencer lied on the other bed.

"Now can I tell you the nineteen different hallucinations?" He asked me.

"Yeah sure. This is going to be fun," I say and he smiles.

"OK so first we have Psychosis which is a serious mental disorder characterized by thinking and emotions are impaired," He starts. "Then we have the Schizophrenia Overview which is a common term for a group of serious psychiatric conditions which are generally characterized by hallucinations and delusions." He yawns. I smile. "Then we have Alzheimer's Disease. It is the most common cause of dementia. It is a progressive brain disorder." I smile and looked at the time.

"You wanna tell me more when you had a good night's sleep," I say.

"Yeah. I think that will be the best for my brain," he says. I smile.

I went to the bathroom, brushed my teeth, and got changed into a black t-shirt that says I'm off to club bed featuring a DJ pillow & MC blankey, a black pair of sweat pants, and I also put on my white slippers that were very fluffy. I came out and into the bedroom to see Spencer in bed. He was sitting up watching TV. I got into bed and he smiles at me. Soon he turned off the TV.

"Night Lilly," He says.

"Night Spencer," I say drifting off to sleep.
