Spencer's pov:
As I finally get my baby sister into my hotel room I sigh in relief. Finally I won't have to worry about someone walking in on me hugging and comforting my sweet sister. On top of that, she should be way safer now as well. No one knows where we are staying and as for others, no one knows that we took her into our protection.
„You guys wait here while I quickly round the hotel to see if everything is clear." Morgan instructs us after he has ushered us into the room. Quickly I nod my head in thanks for his thoughtfulness. So after another be right back, he closed the door and I right away lock it. Better safe than sorry!
„Do you really think that the murderer is trying to kill me too?" the soft and frightened voice of my baby sister hurts me to the core. I never thought that she would ever be in a situation like this. When her teary eyes find mine I sigh heavily. Not really wanting to frighten her even more but than she also needs to know the full extent of this situation.
„Not now. I don't think so." I slowly start and help her take a seat on my bed.
„You told me that those actresses got some roles that you also auditioned for. The producer that got killed also was the one that talked badly about you. So I think in a sick way, the killer try's to help you or avenge you." I further explain and see her pale right away.
„So, it's my fault they got killed?" she whispers in devastation. I right away shake my head vehemently at her assumption. I knew I should of never told her!
„Stop thinking like that right this second Sophie! You are not the one killing those people nor did you tell anyone to do so for you!" I sternly tell her. My eyes not leaving hers to make sure she understands how serious I am about this!
„What the unsub does is a crime. Victimizing all those people, including you! Is a crime and i will make sure he or she will get put behind bars for that." I further on explain as tears keep on falling out of her baby blue eyes.
„We will catch them. The team and I will do our best to find them." I add as she slowly nods her head in understanding which makes me smile softly at her. What I however didn't tell her, was the fact that the unsub might turn around and try to kill her too if they think that my dear baby sister betrayed them. Which technically she did by going to the police. That surely is the reason why Hotch also instructed us to keep Sophie safe. Knocking was heard from the door, so I walk towards it. Of course only after kissing my baby sisters head once again.
„Who is it?" i question. If it isn't Morgan I obviously wouldn't open the door.
„It's me Spencer." Morgan's deep voice reply's with a low chuckle in the end. Since I now am sure who is out there, I unlock the door again to let my best friend and co-worker enter.
„The hotel is pretty safe. There also are only two ways to get to your room. In the elevator as well as the stairway are cameras hung up. Garcia is already locked into them to make sure no one can get here undetected." he informs me before walking right towards the small balcony connected to the room. Seemingly inspecting it as well as the hotel just minutes prior. He really is an amazing agent and even a better friend!
„It's a good thing we stay up in the 5 floor. The rooms next to yours also are the ones from the team, that way there shouldn't be anyone able to get in here through there." he says satisfied as he finally takes a seat on the couch opposite of the bed where my baby sister is still sitting on.
„Can I help you guys somehow to find the murderer?" she quietly questions in uncertainty. Seemingly determined to help in any way she possibly can while also being frightened. Morgan simply looks at me, asking me non verbally if I want her to help or not. After looking at her once again, I nod my head slowly. If she really wants to help us, than I shouldn't stay in the way of it. It after all would possibly end the threat on her way sooner.
„I just want this all to end. So if I can help in anyway please let me." she says pleadingly. Obviously knowing that if I would have my way I would bubble wrap her and lock her somewhere where nothing could possibly happen to her!
„I am guessing Spencer explained already why we are so worried for your safety?" he questions her softly to which she nods her head after sitting up straighter to look less frightened, still I can see right through her act. I know her way to good to fall for that.
„Seeing that our unsub knew of every role you didn't get and even where you live at, makes me think that you possibly know them." he says. Both of us keeping a close eye on her to make sure we don't trigger her into another panic attack like earlier as she told us about how she found the note. Sophie also seems to realize that since her facial expression is stoic, not once moving a muscle or anything. Only her expressive eyes show her real feelings. Thankfully though she seems to be relatively calm, well as far as anyone can possibly be by such a topic.
„You mean to tell me that I know someone that cruel in person?" she asks, not seeming to believe Morgan. Still he answers her with an I am absolutely sure. And he does have a valid point there. There are too many things that the unsub knows about that weren't printed in any trash papers. Thinking about it makes me remember another incident that might be connected to the current situation as well.
„Are you still getting those lilac lilies along with white roses?" I ask Sophie who nods her head in confusion why I would bring them up now as well.
„Each month, on the fourteenth she gets a bundle of lilac lilies accompanied with some white roses." I explain an irritated Morgan who however seems to slowly understand what I am trying to tell him.
„Those are her favorite flowers. No one other than me should however know that. She never told anyone about that. Not even Paul knows that, he only thinks she likes roses but neither the color nor any other flowers." I further explain. Derek right away back into his work space grabs for his phone.
„I will call Hotch, Maybe we can find out more about it. If our unsub truly tried to get her attention with flowers for that long, it might be a possibility that he switched his ways since he didn't get the reaction out of her as wanted." he states and walks back outside on the balcony. Seeing my baby sisters eyes fill with tears yet again, I quickly pull her into my side to hug her tightly. This must be extremely stressful for her.
