Tick, tick... BOOM [Spencer Reid X FEM OC] english version

01.

When Cora answered the call, she didn't expect to hear Spencer's voice on the other end of the line, among other things because the boy was a technophobe and because he had hated her since she joined the team, two months ago.

"Jason's gone." The girl got up from her seat, scared.

"What do you mean he's gone?" She started to put on a coat.

"He's not in his office." Spencer heard a sigh of relief from the brunette.

"Okay, I'm on my way there, don't move, okay?" The boy nodded. "And Spencer, why did you call me?"

"I don't know... I just thought of someone and you came to mind. I'm sorry if you were doing something important."

"No, no, don't worry." The girl couldn't help but smile a little. "I'm on my way."

When Coraline arrived at Gideon's office, she saw a devastated Spencer standing there, not doing or saying anything, but she decided to keep her distance and knocked on the door, which made the boy react. She could see that the dark-haired boy had been crying, or at least, he had been close to it.

"We were going to play chess. But he didn't show up."

"Oh, Spencer." She put a hand on the boy's shoulder. "Since Sarah died, we both knew perfectly well that Gideon couldn't be here anymore. He's not the first one this happens to, nor will he be the last, but it doesn't mean he doesn't love you."

"But..."

"I know, I know it hurts when people leave us, but it wasn't your fault, believe me."

At that moment, JJ called Cora, so the brunette answered the call, and when she hung up, she was aware that she had to tell Spencer that they had a case, but it broke her heart to see him like that.

"Hey, Spencer, we have to go, we have a case."

"What? Oh, I'm going." She tried to smile at him a little. "Thanks for coming."

"That's what friends are for."

"But all I've done is hate you." That was a form of apology.

"I know, but I understand why you were angry. Elle left and you loved her, and it seemed unfair to you that someone else replaced her. But I don't hold that against you. - both young people smiled a little.
