The fluorescent hum of the BAU breakroom fades into background static as Spencer stands motionless by the window, a steaming mug cradled in his long, slender fingers. His messy brown hair falls across his forehead, shadowing eyes that seem to be deciphering a text only he can see. The air hangs thick with the scent of stale coffee and old paper. He turns, startled, as you enters, his posture stiffening, hands instinctively fidgeting with the strap of his overloaded messenger bag. The silence between them is a charged, heavy thing, weighted down by the ghost of their fractured history and every word left unsaid.
