Summary
The only thing that thrived in Reid's life was pain, hope never had a chance. Reid had given up on the hope that he would be saved and resigned himself to spend the rest of his life as an omega sex slave. To be used by anyone who rented him and on occasion, to be the boss's source of entertainment. When Reid is found and recused from the place he was sure he would die, he's given a new chance at life. How could someone like him rebuild a life and function normally in society?
JJ was only going to see this omega once, she was going to drive him to his new living area and wish him the best. Penelope and Kevin would help the poor guy get back on his feet. JJ always wanted the best for the omegas who were found after years of abuse, but there was something about Spencer she couldn't get out of her head. The omega tugged on her heartstrings, her inner alpha was pulling her towards him, and hearing about Spencer's progress wasn't enough. She needed to see the omega flourish with her own eyes, but after everything Spencer had been through, would he want an alpha hanging around?

Summary
Spencer Reid disliked the book Wuthering Heights, much like he had a strong distaste for anything that appeared to conventionalize destructive and morally ambiguous people and their relationships. Madeline Schofield appreciates the book for its more realistic display of the complex psyche of people in love at the height of their inner turmoil.
In turn, Spencer found himself despising the way that Madeline seemed to accept his own volatile turbulence of emotions coming out of prison— and all that followed afterward.

Summary
It wasn’t supposed to be a life-changing event - all you did was change your phone number. When you got a call from a man who clearly didn’t expect someone to pick up the phone, you should have hung up and blocked him. Especially when you found out the number used to belong to his dead girlfriend, Maeve. Too bad you couldn't seem to shake the man from your mind.

Two strangers meet each other at a bar, neither wanting to be alone after just coming from a funeral. Luke will never get the image of his best friend being tortured out of his mind. Phil died too young, and the Crimson King being stuck in jail for life, doesn’t feel like enough of a price to be paid. So after the funeral he tries to drown the thoughts of pain and revenge with tequila and this beautiful man, with pretty Bambi-esque eyes and sad smile. Yeah, that looks like the perfect distraction.
Spencer Reid should’ve known his mom was planning on killing herself, she was so calm and cohesive about everything happening to her. After 15 years in the same place, and her attempts when she first moved in facility in Vegas. New places and schizophrenia just don’t mix. And now they both payed the price for it. He has two choices: the healthy one, going to Dereks place and having a good heart to heart, talking about what happened. Or the unhealthy one, going to a bar and calling his old friend. Five years sober. Five years and he’s going to throw it away. He needs a hit. Fuck maybe he shouldn’t go that far. Maybe he just needs a drink. And hey if he meets a beautiful stranger with the perfect jawline, then that’s a plus.Series

Their mutual trauma leads to them getting closer. In between late nights in the office, stressful cases and late night, Indian take out they find comfort in each other.Or:
Spencer and Aaron find each other when they need each other the most.--
Beth doesn’t exist.
This is simply my interpretation of how I think the death of Maeve could have brought Hotch and Spencer closer together. I don't think the deaths are necessarily comparable, but after rewatching Zugzwang I couldn't get this idea out of my head.
This short fic is complete and will be uploaded over the course of the next few weeks.

Summary
"“I have absolutely no pleasure in the stimulants in which I sometimes so madly indulge. It has not been in the pursuit of pleasure that I have periled life and reputation and reason. It has been the desperate attempt to escape from torturing memories, from a sense of insupportable loneliness and a dread of some strange impending doom.” -Edgar Allen Poe
After Maeve's death, Spencer has a choice to make.
