Summary
Spencer Reid was in love.
Which statistically speaking, was impossible. On average, Spencer knew it took men around eighty-eight days to fall in love with another person. Generally, Spencer wasn't one to argue with statistics; unlike people, they were reliable. They didn't change at the drop of a hat and once he understood one, it was easy to understand the rest of them. He knew statistics better than the back of his hand; they were always fun to rattle off to the team, even if they didn't always enjoy listening to them. Statistics and numbers were comfortable, they'd never proved him wrong before. But for the first time in his life, Spencer knew the statistics surrounding love were wrong.
Because what should have taken him eighty-eight days to do, his heart had accomplished in twenty seconds.

Summary
They’re friends— Sort-of— because friends don’t look at each other the same way he looks at Aaron. He’s also pretty sure that it isn’t normal to feel like your heart is about to burst just because your friend smiled at you.
However, Spencer isn’t stupid. Aaron would never like him, not like that. Even if they were friends, he knew Aaron was so much more than he could be.

Summary
He gets to hold on, even if it’s only for a bit, even if it’s not real, even if it doesn’t mean anything, and that’s enough.
(It has to be enough.)
(Because someone like Derek Morgan could never love someone like Spencer Reid.)

“I don’t need, or frankly have the time to have sex,” he manages at last, somehow forcing his feet to move and take him forwards to the coffee maker. He almost forgoes the sugar entirely, wanting the bitter taste to wake him up from this walking nightmare he seems to be living in right now.
“All I’m saying is, you wouldn’t be my first,” Elle says as she comes up to stand next to him.

Summary
They would be sitting in a hotel room, during a case when Derek Morgan who he was rooming with would flip over on his side. Turning to Spencer. “Do you ever wonder if your soulmate is out there?” He’d ask, and he sounded profound. Derek thought about his soulmate more than anyone else on the team. Believing in some way that a soulmate would help him, whether it was help him realize he could take care of someone, or help him realize that staying alive could be enough.
“Of course they are. Or we wouldn’t have these markings.” Spencer would find himself responding, and Derek would roll his eyes.
He would sigh for a moment before speaking, his tone tense. “What I mean is. Do you think they might be closer than you’re actually thinking…” he paused, cautious with how he worded it around the boy genius. There were a lot of times where Spencer did think his soulmate was a lot closer than he believed. The kind woman in the building with the cat, the man who knew his coffee order… and the woman on tech support with marks on her hand in the same place his were. But what he knew right now was he couldn’t hope, couldn’t wish.

Summary
He didn’t think some of these people would last the dark he had seen and was well acquainted with but knew a little too well. Some people were better fit for a life that was simple and planned, a ribbon tied around it as they went home to their white picket fence. He thought some people were better at an office job, signing paper work and celebrating with office parties. The same routine everyday. He on the other hand … he had become used to it.
