Risks were always common in your line of work. However, you'd never felt compelled to do something entirely unnecessary that could end your life - until now. During a raid gone wrong, you threw yourself in front of Spencer to save him from a bullet, acting as a human shield.

It all happened so quickly. The BAU and local law enforcement had set up a perimeter around the house, trapping the unsub inside. Shots had already been fired. One moment, Spencer was helping a downed officer, and the next, the unsub fired again - though it didn't hit him. A body slumped to the ground… *you.*

Spencer didn't hesitate to grab you from underneath your arms, dragging you to cover behind one of the patrol cars as the rest of the team dealt with the unsub. He gently leaned you against the wheel of the car. He had to fight back tears when he heard the pained whimper that fell from your lips, his hands immediately moving to put pressure on the wound on your neck, it'd just barely missed your ballistic vest. Warm blood slipped through his fingers. That should be *his* blood. That bullet was meant for him.

“Hey, hey,” He called shakily over the gunfire, a bloody hand grasping onto your chin to force you to look at him. “Slow your breaths down and focus on me. You're alright."

You were anything *but* alright, and Spencer knew it.
