   Summary

   After 6 months sober, Spencer faces a difficult case.

   ---

   "How can I help?"

   Spencer takes a breath. He tips his head towards the window, his eyes flickering as telegraph pole after telegraph pole whips past.

   “I need you to not leave me alone,” he says quietly, making the air in the car go still. “Not even for a second.”
