I didn't sleep last night. No way. We were in the police station, and I was still so angry, and anxious. I was talking to one of the officers when my phone buzzed. I pulled it out.
Carter
My heart rate instantly went up.
View attached video? the phone read.
"What the hell does this guy want from me?"
And I hit play.

"----!" I screamed, whipping the phone against my wall.
My vision was tinted red, and my ears rang.
My fist and the desk collided, I didn't care if I was making a fool of myself. Papers flew in a blur and a chair was overturned. I would've caused more destruction if Morgan hadn't noticed what was going on and pinned my arms against my back.
"Hey, hey, you need to calm down." he shouted.
I panted, but still I thrashed and squirmed and fidgeted.
"Hey!"
Everyone was staring. I didn't care. I sank into a puddle, and cried silently. It was only the team & the sheriff in the room, and nobody else in the station was paying attention.
"What happened man?!" Morgan asked.
J.J and Prentiss exchanged concerned looks, and Prentiss mouthed What was that? I think he just cracked. But her expression screamed HE NEEDS TO BE PUT IN A MENTAL INSTITUTION.
"I'm fine guys." I lied, my voice cracking.
"Well clearly SOMETHING happened." Rossi sighed. His eyes were blood shot & puffy and he looked worse than I did. He's probably worried sick about her.
"I- I got a message from J."
Prentiss picked up my phone, which now was flaunting a shattered screen. Everyone huddled around, but I didn't need to see it again. I excused myself and soon Rossi had joined me out in the hall.
Slowly they piled out speechless.
"Alright, time to investigate at the crime scene." Hotch announced.

As we were pulling up, I felt plain wrong. This is wrong. I was invading her privacy, although I had spent many hours here with her reading and watching movies and baking and... No, I must stay focused. We stepped in, and I felt like a trespassers. Yellow police tape lined the perimeters, and made me feel unsettled. Police officers walked in and around her house, and police dogs barked, noses to the grass looking for something. We were going to step inside when one guy said "Wait!" I looked down to see a pool of Carter's blood. My stomach wretched, threatening to make me throw up. I maintained myself and stepped over it.
"I'll take upstairs." Moran stated as he walked up the pretty wood staircase.
"Wait a second, look guys, there's no train of blood, so he's strong enough to carry her, not that she'd be very heavy at all." J.J exclaimed.
"You're right." I commented, and we milled around for a bit, but it was weird seeing her house was in pieces. I was looking at a ripped oil painting, knowing that she wouldn't do this, but wondering Who would? when Morgan shouted from upstairs.
"Hotch! You gotta come see this."
I bound up the stairs with the others behind me and bust into her bedroom, and my face instantly gets red. I've never actually been in her room before, or any girl's for that matter. There are pictures up all around her room of me and her, the time we went to the beach and our picnic and all sorts of pictures except- in every one my face was scratched out. Not that bothered me, but what?
"So it's personal." Hotch concluded.
"Yeah. Spencer, do you know anyone, anyone at all who would want to hurt you or Carter?" Rossi asked.
"No, I swear, I'm not on bad terms with anyone, nor is Carter."
There was another buzz from my phone and I picked it up.
"Hey- you're not going to loose it when you read it again right?" Prentiss intervened.
"Yeah." I read it aloud. "Hello, hope you liked reading my last text! Anyways you guys better clear your schedule for substance abuse consoling. Ha, that'd be if she ever made it out alive, which I guarantee you doctor will NEVER happen. Have fun making goals to stay off drugs... TOGETHER! Yup, morphine!" And a single tear drop splashed on my hand.
