——- Author’s Note ends——-
“This was it, today is the day I do it”you chided mentally, rythmically tapping you hand on your knee as you waited to get out of the subway.
The warmth of the bureau was a welcome change from the cold air outside, yet the air still seemed tense, you realised why as you looked around - Aaron and the whole team were surrounding Spencer’s desk, suddenly alarmed, you rushed in that direction.
“What’s happened?” You panted,
“Thank gosh you’re here” , gushed Penelope with a worried look.
You managed a weak smile as your eyes flickered over to Spencer who continued speaking to everyone,but you couldn’t focus on his words, his brows were furrowed his eyes and nose tinged red suggesting he was crying but he still looked so adorable to you.
Everyone soon dispersed, only you were left at spencer’s desk.
“Hey. What happened?”
“It’s Maeve, her stalker”
“What happened?” worry laced your voice, you knew how much Maeve meant to him
“he-he’s back and she’s in danger, and I don’t know who it is, it’s all my fault, i should have protected her sooner” ,Spencer rushed his words, after taking a moment to decipher it-
“Spence, we’ll find her. I promise. You’ve got the most brilliant minds of the BAU with you.”
“But what if- what if I never see her? What if she doesnt make it? She already told me she loves me, and I- i havent been able to tell her yet”
Your heart sank, you gulped feeling the tears stinging at your eyes, you managed to mumble -
“It’s gonna be alright spence, you trust all of us dont you?” as you pulled him into a warm embrace, you felt him relax under your touch as he nodded his head in reply.It bought a smile to your face, but only for a brief moment as he pulled away and started looking through Maeve’s folder on his messy desk.
The moment slipped away like sand.
“I can’t tell him now, or ever”, hoping you didnt say that out loud, You strolled away, toward your desk and slumped down on your chair, massaging your temple.
Everyone knew about how you felt for Spencer, except him, for a genius he was pretty dumb. This situation was an absolute mess, but you knew you’d have to help save Maeve for Spencer’s happiness, even if you loose your chance.
You stop your mind from spiralling and focus on the folder kept on your desk.
After days and days of putting together the pieces you found Maeve’s stalker, Spencer was wrong probably for the first time because, it was a ‘she’ - Diana Turner, one of Maeve’s interns.
Who now stood in front of your eyes with her back faced toward you and a gun on Maeve’s head.
The remaining team had their gun’s
Pointed toward her too but Diana was too focused on Spencer to notice you stealthily walk up to her. You pulled Maeve away from her and simultaneously kicked her from beneath.She fell to the ground, dropping her gun which you kicked away and cuffed her.
“Diana Turner, you are under arrest for attempt to murder a civillian, goverment offical and stalk-“
“Spencer!”
“Mae-Maeve!, im so, so glad you’re okay, are you hurt? It’s okay now, you’re safe, i’m sorry i didn’t come soon-”
“Dont be sorry,You’re here now I’m safe.” she said, pecking his lips, with her hands around his neck. Spencer nuzzled his face and wrapped his arm around her waist.
You couldn’t stop yourself from mentally breaking down after seeing Spencer and Maeve together, as you tried pulling together your best poker face, Diana who was pinned below you pulled out a knife and slashed it against you,a long streak of blood oozed out from just under your ribs across your midriff over to your left side,
Seething in resentment and pain you handed her to emily as you put pressure on your wound.You were getting dizzy because of exhaustion or blood loss? you didn’t know but you couldn’t care less as you saw Maeve and Spencer be sickenly sweet in front of you even now.
“You need a medic?” Emily asked worriedly.
“I’m fine, i’ll take a couple days off tend to it myself, i’m going to head back now, but i do need some bandage”
“I already have some here.” She handed it over to you “You know it’s alright to admit you’re hurting,”
You scoffed, bandaging your abdomen.
“(y/n) you know exactly what I’m talking about “
“I’m gonna get some sleep emily, good night” you said, strolling past her, back hunched, with the image replaying in your head, still clear as day.
