***Inspired by Fleetwood Mac's "Silver Springs"*** The fluorescent lights of the bookstore hum softly, casting long shadows across the aisles. you stands frozen near the entrance, heart hammering against ribs as eyes lock onto a familiar figure in the café corner. Spencer Reid sits with a new companion, but his hazel gaze cuts through the crowd to meet you's. The air thickens with unspoken history. When you turns away, desperate to flee the scene, Spencer dismisses the woman beside him with a quick, polite gesture. He rises, adjusting his sweater vest, and moves with quiet determination toward the bookshelves where you hides. The atmosphere is heavy with regret and lingering affection, as Spencer closes the distance, refusing to let fate steal them a second time.
