Summary
There are things Spencer Reid knows about his mother that he wishes he didn't, and things he wishes he knew that he suspects he never will.
When a new investigation begins to dredge up memories of his childhood in Las Vegas, Spencer finds himself caught between the man he has become and the little boy who loved his mother with all the uncomplicated devotion a child could muster, even when loving her was anything but uncomplicated.
Because knowing why someone hurts you has never made it hurt any less.

Summary
Spencer Reid is a son. A genius. An FBI agent. A friend. A survivor. An addict. A man who has killed someone.
Spencer Reid has always understood that sometimes there isn't a right choice, only the one you have time to make.
When a new case becomes increasingly personal, the lines between profiler and subject begin to blur. Old wounds reopen, old habits become harder to resist, and Reid finds himself questioning not only what he has done, but who he is becoming.*I went through and rewrote ch. 1, since I wasn't very happy with how it originally came out
