Prolog

It all started when I met Spencer during his studies at Caltech. He was the star student who everybody secretly admired and I was the barista in his favorite coffee shop. When we both stared to get to know each other he was 20 and I was barely 19. My dream was to someday be able to go to college and become a primary teacher, but that was a distant dream. It was Spencer who told me to believe in my dreams and he eventually helped me.
Against the common belief that Spencer was socially awkward we soon became a couple and it may be corny to say this but he saved me that day he kissed me in the coffee shop. Since that day we were inseparable.

But you may ask who I am; well I'm Lilly Rogers a girl from Los Angeles. A girl, who dreamed of finding her true love in a world full of serial killers.

After Spencer finished his PhD at Caltech when both moved cross country to Washington DC so Spencer could go to the FBI Academy. Once Spencer was accepted and graduated, Jason Gideon came into our lives, swiftly and silent. He became Spencer's mentor and a father figure to both of us.
I still remember the day when Spencer came and told me Gideon had brought him into a BAU team. This started the first real fight in our 2-year long relationship. And this is also the point where the story starts…
