❝ if you wanted to kill me, you would have done it already. but you haven't, because i think you know i'm the only person who really understands you ❞ spencer reid has always loathed the star-crossed lovers trope. i mean, he's read a lot of fiction, and it really is just a terribly repetitive romantic trope -- so, naturally, when it appears as a reality in his own life, it's very much unappreciated. and, well, star-crossed lovers has never been so literal than when spencer reid feels tied -- by fate, by their pasts, by simple sexual attraction -- to the nefarious subject of a rigorous investigation. this just might be the case of his life, and yet his mind keeps wandering away, down a deep, dark hallway to where someone calls his name. star-crossed lovers has never been so dangerous.
