„Reid we will get you through this…"
Morgan's voice trembled through the phone, trapped in Dr. Spencer Reid's hand.
The display of the phone was covered in dust, otherwise Reid could have seen Morgan smiling at him, a picture that was taken at their last get together at Rossi's mansion. They had spent a nice day at the pool, that covered most of the property. Morgan had pulled him into the pool and when he put his head over the water, Morgan had an arm placed over his shoulder - smiling at Garcia who pointed a camera in their direction.
But Reid wasn't able to see the picture, that always popped up when Morgan called him, instead he could see a woman crying, clutching the body of a child against her own and lot of gravel everywhere around them.
Reid had a hard time remembering how he got in this situation…when did everything started to go downhill?… but his concern was not for him, but for the two people he wanted to protect with his life, two people who were trapped in here with him… a mother and her child, who deserved to live.
"Morgan don't worry you know I will make it, I always make it… Actually it's kinda funny how I always end up in situations like this… All of us should be used to it by now, don't you think so ?" he lightly chuckled at this, a small smile stretched his dried up lips.
"Reid please don't tell me you start to develop humor right now, in this situation…" he recognized Hotch's voice and heard Garcia sniff in the background, he could swear he could hear a chuckle that he sorted out as Morgan's.
"Sweetie stay positive, just think about what I would do…" Garcia sobbed again, trying to seduce the sound but she failed. Reid still heard a small whining sound coming out of the phone.
" I will but dressing up as a rainbow doesn't seem appropriate right now."
"You might be right with that one Pretty Boy."
"I always am." Morgan sighed at this trying to sound annoyed.
"Just hurry, I want them to be safe as soon as possible."
His eyes rested on the woman and the child, they had lifted their heads meeting his gaze, he smiled and they returned it, a sparkle filled the woman's eyes. He lifted his hand that was covered in dust and some scratches, whipping away the tears, that shimmered on the girl's cheek. She trapped Reid's arm in her little arms and he rested her against his chest. Her breathing got slower and slower and in a few minutes she was asleep against Reid's chest, his hand stroking her hair unconsciously.
"We will get you out of there soon…" Reid wished he couldn't hear the doubt in his superiors' voice, but he did.
Every minute in here felt like an eternity, it reminded him of being in the eye of cyclone, everything seemed calm but in reality hell could break lose anytime.
New story, finally.
I hope you are interested in this story, this is just a short chapter to see if someone actually wants to read it. I have already written some chapters, so I would be able to update frequently.
I don't own Criminal Minds...obviously... - apart from the three characters that are my own ;)
