(Spencer Reid x Reader) -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- You're a provable genius with an IQ of 200 that works in the Organized Crime unit of the FBI, then when Erin Strauss calls on you specifically to aid in an investigation being manned by the Behavioral Analysis Unit, you're quick to accept.

Spencer Reid likes you, a lot, and loves finally not being the only genius around.
