The friend from Uni.

The line doesnt always break.

I was working away when people rushed into the room making me turn around to see the team were worried.
"What the hell Ashley?" Derek questioned.
"I couldn't sleep so I came here to work on this. I left a note at reception for you all to know I was here."
"We've just been watching Explosión Gigantesca de Romance." Penelope told from the laptop.
"She's not wrong?"
"What show is that?" David questioned.
"Penelope?"
"It's this Spanish soap opera, that's filmed in Santa Barbara. Chad is so attractive, I want to meet him and get his signature." She told making me smile.
"He's got really good hair."
"He's got good everything Ashley! Minus the Spanish, he could use some work on that."
"Yeah it's pretty shit. Serves him right for not focusing in Spanish class."
"I am so confused right now." Emily stated.
"Side note, do you know Spanish?" Jj questioned.
"Por supuesto. Me aburrí mucho un día y en mi casa en Santa Bárbara, una chica llamada Juliet a veces me hablaba en español para que no se oxidara." I simply told shocking everyone.
"What did she say?" Derek asked looking towards Spencer.
"I didn't know she started doing it."
"Ok all I understood from that was Santa Barbara and Juliet." Penelope stated. "Why did you never tell me you lived there?"
"Because when have I ever been open about my life. You guys only know about three of my siblings and the fact that one of them is a girl."
"True."
"Anyway. This is what I've got so far. The unsub is using the cycle of abuse. Basically what this means is, the were most likely abused by someone most likely physical with the evidence of what they are doing to kids.... most likely a parental figure who was also abused in someway and they then continue doing it.... hence it being a cycle. From there we can pinpoint a list of likely people that will fit the description till we can get our unsub." I explained.

I was sitting just outside the police station with Spencer when someone rushed towards us.
"Are you two working this case?!" He yelled towards us.
"We can't disclose any information with you sir." Spencer quickly told.

"Because of you, we have to move now. Why can't you just disappear like your mother did and get out of my life for good?!" He exclaimed before I felt a sharp near my eye as part of my vision turned red.

"Are you even listening to me?!" He asked
"Please step away from her."
"My son was killed because none of you can get your shit together."
"Look we are trying to solve this! But we can't if your causing a scene! Now I suggest stepping the fuck away from us!" I told.
Before Spencer could drag me inside everything began to move in slow motion for me as he threw a punch towards Spencer.

"Please don't hurt him! He's done nothing wrong to you!"

I quickly shielded Spencer from the punch making him punch me in the ribs instead as I fell down slightly. Just as the doors to the police station opened I threw a punch towards him making him fall to the ground as blood began to slowly come out of his nose.
"Ashley what the hell?!" Aaron exclaimed towards us.
"I will answer that, just as soon as I double over from pain." I told before falling against Spencer so he caught me.
"She just assaulted me for no reason!"
"You came towards us and began to yell at us. And then when we have told you countless times to step away from us you threw a punch and hit her! Of course she's going to punch you back!" Spencer exclaimed as I covered my ears since everything was getting too loud.
"Loud."
"Reid, get her inside so she can get checked." Aaron told making him pick me.

"Ashley we need to take your shirt off to see the damage." Jj told.
"And I get that. But I'm not gonna and if anyone try's, I'll break their wrists."
"Your phone keeps ringing Ash." Spencer told as he came and handed my phone to me.
"Look, it's fine. I've had worse."
"We need to make sure you don't have any broken ribs." David stated.
"Fine. But I want everyone out."
"Ash...."
"I won't do it unless everyone is outside. I don't want anyone to see my body."
"We'll be outside." Aaron told before they all left.
'What a fucked up day.'
