Okay so in this story the edited pages will have stars at the bottom or top whichever one. But I decided to re-write this because it needs a lot of work but yeah🤷🏻‍♀️ ..................... You and Derek met when you guys where 15-16 years of age 🗿 y'all became close night after night of sneaking out and meeting each other at the lake in the forest. Y'all grow up and finally when both of you got out of your homes you both went to school to study crime and behavior and joined the fbi. Well on of the cases brings up memories of you the readers not good per say passed home-life. ( ik how Original) You work and study the case a lot but it went cold and a couple years later it starts back up but throughout those years you and Derek have problems that could lead to the end of a friendship.

karl x reader because karl is so pretty and i want to write it, this is my second story so please dont be mean. i will be using she/her pronouns in this story. i will also be using some sensitive stuff like alchohol consumption in this story so there will be a warning in chapters that contain that. there will be slight fluff but no more than that since i dont want to write like that. also covid doesnt exist in this story :)

You set your phone down when a customer walked in - a boy with fluffy brown hair and an oversized jumper. You watched him wander between the shelves for a few moments, looking sort of lost, as most boyfriends and/or husbands did when they came looking for gifts. Shame too - he was cute. Still, you walked around the counter and over to him to offer your help. You stepped up beside him next to the candles. "Hi, are you finding everything okay?" You asked. "Oh, uh." The boy jumped a little. "I'm just looking for some candles." He said. "Gonna be honest... I'm kind of lost, yeah." You laughed a little. "Would you like some help?" "Yes, thank you." He sounded relieved. You grabbed one of the shopping bags from the nearby rack and handed it to him with a smile. "So are we looking for something for the girlfriend, or mom, maybe?" "Oh, um no." He said, flushing slightly. "I just needed some candles for me, actually." Your smile widened. So no girlfriend... a interesting development.
