Spencer Reid prided himself on discipline, focus, and control.
She... didn't believe in any of that.
Vivian Vale was the new recruit at the BAU. A genius, sure,but reckless, flirtatious, and everything he hated wrapped in black hair and a spine inked in sin.
She flirted with him like it was a game. Every chance she got.
And the worst part?
He never gave in.
Not once.
And that only made her want him more.
To her, he was the one man who didn't fall at her feet and that made him fascinating.
To him, she was chaos in human form and that made her dangerous.
But when a case forces them closer, and the masks start to slip, Spencer realizes she's more than trouble.
She's the obsession he's been trying to outrun.
She wasn't part of the profile.
She was the crime itself.
And maybe... he wants to be guilty.

Ineffable - S.REID
(adj) ❝too great or extreme to be expressed or described in words.❞ CLARA DAVIA didn't have much of a view of fate, of people joined by strings that pulled them together no matter what occurred in their lives. SPENCER REID hadn't an opinion either and logically he couldn't form one. Yet after a impromptu and random meeting, he wanted nothing more than to have the nameless woman be pulled towards him so they could meet again. On the morning of a normal work day, that very wish came true. And how could he not instantly be beguiled by the woman he had yearned to see for years? But she couldn't and shouldn't feel the same, they were just friends. Close friends who told eachother everything and lingered in subtle touches for moments too long. Their pauses and gazes were filled with stories themselves. approx 89k words ~ friends to lovers SPENCER REID X OC [4 APR-14 SEP]Complete
right person wrong time✔️
When autumn walked into the bau on her first day she saw a beautiful man with the saddest eyes she's ever seen. The worst part was when she found herself wanting to make him happy. Can she do that without breaking herself more? Is the love they're capable of feeling for one another worth the pain they can inflict. Can she even love him the right way after what she's been through? {there is no set time frame i just like to add stuff and see what happens.} I own autumn Adams but every other character does not belong to me they belong to the criminal minds cast in some way or the other.

Trace
When David Rossi's goddaughter joins the BAU as a forensic consultant, she brings a razor-sharp mind for poisons, decomposition, and crime scene secrets-along with a black-cat streak that unsettles even seasoned profilers. But while her genius earns the team's respect, it's Spencer Reid who sees past the dark humor and eccentric habits to the survivor beneath. Between crime scenes, lectures, and Rossi's ever-watchful eye, an unexpected bond grows-equal parts intellect, banter, and the kind of vulnerability that terrifies them both. In a world where death always leaves a trace, can two broken prodigies risk finding love in the evidence? Spencer Reid x reader fanfiction
