“Hey, you okay?” Morgan asks, the door swinging open. “You kind of ran.”

Summary
"Hey pretty boy," he murmured in a low, rumbling tone that sent sparks directly to Spencer's gut. Christ this guy was hot.
That was evident even with the wicked swelling starting to form around his right eye and the blood splattered across his face and lips. Each of the teeth that formed his grin were rimmed with red.
"We can't take him to the ER," the guy on the other side offered by way of explanation that did nothing to clear up Spencer's confusion.
"You're the smartest kid in our class," Marcus continued.
"Marcus," Spencer breathed in disbelief, "it's Biology 101. I'm not a-a-a fucking medic."Derek Morgan is brought bloodied and bruised to Spencer Reid's door at some unholy hour of a Thursday morning. Against his better judgement, Spencer agrees to patch him up and attempts to ignore his lingering attraction.
Derek, however, has other plans.

Summary
mirelune (n.): the grief that visits only at night, when the world is silent and your guard is finally down
--
"He was alive. He was alive, and hurting, and he could breathe. It was as if he surfaced from under the water after holding his breath for days - no, years. It was a deep drag of air, crisp against his lungs and sufficient enough to reduce the weight inside of him and provide enough buoyancy to prevent him from sinking below the waves again. His head dropped back against the wall behind him, his body relaxing where he sat against the wall. He couldn’t remember if he had ever felt this peaceful before.
And that was how he knew he would do it again."

OR:
The prequel to my other fic nemesism, and an exploration into the beginning and progression of Spencer's self-harming behaviors. You don't have to read nemesism to understand this, but if you find you like this fic, I suggest reading nemesism too (because it's my baby and I love it)!
