Fourteen years ago, you were one of the Behavioral Analysis Unit's best profilers. The team was your family.
Then came the case that changed everything.
One assignment. One night. And a disappearance that left you gone from the BAU and from Spencer's life for fourteen years.
When you finally go back, nothing is the same. The team has evolved, the scars run deeper, and Spencer is no longer the man you left behind.
How do you love someone when all that you have is the ghost of them?

Falling From Grace ~ Spencer Reid
You weren't always this person. Once, you believed in the truth. Until a single, devastating discovery shattered everything you thought you knew and left you questioning everything. Years later, you've rebuilt yourself enough to graduate from the FBI Academy, determined to outrun the past. Then a random hookup becomes something more. Something beautiful. Something dangerous. Because he isn't just older, intoxicating, and impossible to forget-he's your boss. And maybe the only man who's ever truly seen you. With every choice you make, one question grows louder: Whose fault is it really that you're falling from grace?

There's something off about her; a lack of warmth in her smiles, a lack of light behind her eyes... She's hiding something, he knows she is. He just needs to prove it, and her 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 will come crashing down. [ A Spencer Reid x Reader ]

The Story of Us
What if the Spencer Reid that the team knew wasn't the real Spencer Reid? What if there was a Spencer that nobody would even imagine when they looked at him, a Spencer that only came out around one girl? Spencer Reid was a child prodigy who had been bullied his whole life, but what would you expect when you started high school at 8 and graduate at 12. When he got to Caltech he hoped that everything would be better and he had no idea how right he was. His first day of school he met her. The most beautiful girl he had ever seen. The most beautiful girl anyone had ever seen. They quickly become friends and she unlocks a side of him he never would have guessed existed. A side that scared him but exhilarated him all at once and the best part is that she's just as smart as him, maybe even smarter. Spencer can't believe his luck...until it all fell apart. 6 years later he is going on his second year of working for the BAU and had almost forgotten his old friend. Or at least he had convinced himself he had until she waltzes in as the newest member of the BAU on his 24 birthday. Now, Spencer has no idea how to handle seeing the person he had once cared about more than anything who had abandoned him. How will he react? Why did she leave? What exactly happened between the two? And the Story of Us looks a lot like a tragedy now- Taylor Swift This story will begin in Season one and will feature some plot line and cases from the show. It is a slow burn Spencer Reid fic that will be part of a series. This story also will contain some Smut so read at your own discretion.Complete![Innocence [ spencer reid x reader ] ✔](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/235348086-256-k495905.jpg)
