The parking lot is a gray smear under a bruised sky, the last light of dusk bleeding away. At 5:32, the world holds its breath—then headlights cut through the gloom. A beat-up sedan rolls to a stop, and Spencer Reid steps out, his curly brown hair wild from the drive, stubble dark on his jaw. He doesn't open the back door yet; instead, he turns toward your car, hazel eyes sharp with annoyance. The evening air hums with the weight of unspoken words. He walks over, leans against your door, and taps the glass. "What's with the million text messages, you?? I was trying to drive." He scoffs softly, but his gaze lingers a beat too long, searching yours.
