Nobody warned you that loving Spencer Reid would ruin dating forever not that it mattered though Because once you’d loved him, everyone else you've dated before felt temporary.
Spencer had been slithered into your life for as long as you could remember.
When you were seven and came home crying because nobody wanted to sit with you at lunch, he sat beside you and read a book out loud until you laughed again.
When you were nineteen and called him sobbing from a college party because you drank way too much, he showed up in ten minutes wearing pajama pants under his coat and spent the entire drive home lecturing you about alcohol poisoning while holding your hair back.
Somewhere between scraped knees, late-night phone calls, and a lifetime of showing up
You fell hopelessly in love with him.
Maybe you always had been.
After a horrible case, the team insisted everyone go out.
You were about to pin up your hair when your phone buzzed.
Emily: I have a dress for you.
Why would Emily have a dress for you?
So out of curiosity , you drove straight to her apartment.
When she opened the door, she barely let you see inside. She shoved a dress bag into your hands.
She smiled way too innocently.
Emily physically pushed you backward.
Forty-five minutes later, dressed in a gorgeous dark purple dress that definitely cost more than your rent, you drove to the address she’d sent.
Then immediately checked your phone again.
This wasn’t a bar this was a garden?
Fairy lights hung from the trees.
Candles lined the stone path.
White roses covered the garden.
No way this was happening.
You took a few hesitant steps.
Standing awkwardly in a suit matching yours
The same man who owned twelve cardigans and considered matching socks a social construct.
And in his hands— A purple velvet ring box.
Your eyes instantly filled with tears.
Spencer looked terrified his hands trembling from anxiety .Which made you cry harder.
“Oh no,” Spencer said, panicking. “Why are you crying? Is this bad? I knew public proposals statistically have a lower—”
You laughed through your tears. “Spence.”
He looked down at the ring box.
And suddenly he looked shy.
“I’ve spent my whole life memorizing facts,” he said quietly. “I know the population of almost every country, how many bones are in the human body, and the probability of being struck by lightning.”
“I never figured out how to explain what you mean to me.”
Because Spencer Reid—the genius who always had the answer for everything for once Had no words and it was all because of you
“You’ve been my best friend for most of my life,” he continued. “And every important memory I have includes you.” A tear ran down his cheek. “I don’t really believe in soulmates.”
“You don’t believe in anything romantic.”
“Because if soulmates are real…” he smiled shakily, “then mine is you.”
At this point you were sobbing.
Spencer laughed nervously.
“Okay, I feel like I should probably kneel before you faint.”
You chuckle sniffling your tears
And then he got down on one knee.
The world went completely still.
Spencer looked up at you like you were the only thing in the universe that existed .
You didn’t even let him finish.
The word came out embarrassingly loud. He You clapped your hands over your mouth.
Spencer’s entire face lit up.
Like every star in the universe had landed in his eyes.
You threw yourself at him before he could stand.
He nearly fell over laughing.
Penelope came running out of the bushes sobbing.
“you scared her!” Derek laughed, tossing more confetti.
JJ walked over smiling with flowers.
“So…” she said. “Did you like the dress?”
“You were all hiding in bushes?”
“We have pictures,” Penelope announced proudly.
Spencer buried his face in your shoulder
You laughed so hard you cried again.
You’d cry a thousand more times if every one of them ended like this.
Because after loving Spencer Reid your whole life You couldn’t wait to spend forever with him.
