spencer reid was the nerd, the outcast. derek morgan was the jock, loved by everyone. both had their demons, though they didn't know about eachothers. derek had taken his anger out on spencer, beating him up, and bullying him every day, but maybe that was just a way for him to cover up what he was going through. maybe he was just too scared to admit he might have a thing for the child prodigy, the weird kid. maybe there was a reason spencer smiled at him in the halls, and wrote little smiley faces on the back of the homework he did for him. maybe spencer could see the scared little boy inside who was covered by the bully derek acted like. spencer had his demons too. he had no one to help him through them. maybe they just needed eachother.
