Elenas P.O.V.
"What if we make a deal" kally lowered the bar slightly whilst saying
"What deal?"
"Me for her" i then said
"Spence, don't you dare" He turned his head slightly and said
"Elena, with all due respect, Shut up. You gave did this me, time to repay you for that….. Kal what do you say"
"You'd give up everything, to save Elena"
"Yes, no second thoughts"
"OKay, but first, you have to tell her"
"Tell her what"
"Don't play dumb Spency. Tell her how you feel or deals off"
"That's what you want? You want me to tell her that i love her, that i always have. Alright then" did I hear that right. Spence turned and helped Me sit up against something. I was in serious pain. He tucked my hair behind my ears and with both of his hands either side of my face he lifted my head and said
"I'm in love with you ELena. I was going to tell you two years ago but then i lost you" …

I shot up in bed breathing heavily. This is the 4th night in a row that I've had this damn nightmare this week. On the plus side this is the longest I've slept this week, 4 hours yay. Just as I was about to settle down my phone rang. When I saw that it was hotch I answered it saying
"Yeah"
"Sorry to wake you, but we've got a case"
"I'm guessing it's not the case I'm hoping for"
"I've heard nothing from MI6. Elena, you don't have to come in if you're not ready"
"it's been 4 months, Hotch. I can't avoid the BAU forever"
"Alright then, see you I'm 20 minutes"
"25"
"Goodbye Elena"
"Bye boss" I then put the phone down. I rolled out of bed and saw that it was 7:30Am. Sighing I got out of bed and dressed for work. When i got out of the shower i put on my black denim jeans , but before i put my a white string strap t-shirt on my eyes scanned over a dozen scars littering my abdomen. Ive actually forgotten what i look like without these scars. I then pulled on a grey combat style shirt with the sleeves rolled up. I put my black heeled ankle boots and then pulled all my long hair back into a loose high ponytail. I then put my contacts in before grabbing my leather jacket. After attaching my holster to my belt, i said goodbye to my british bulldog 'brutus',picked my car keys and my go back. I locked up the warehouse before heading down to the garage. I live in an old industrial building, that i converted into living accommodations and a working garage. I was going to move into in right before everything happened with Kol.
Hotch P. O.V
Rossi was the the first of the team to arrive. He came into my office and said
"Is this case about Reid"
"No and I've got some bad news about that"
"What"
"MI6 are thinking about closing the case. Cold case"
"Have you told Elena"
"No i've only just convinced her to come back. She's on her way in" after I said that everyone apart from Elena appeared, everyone look tired, we headed to the round table room.
It was a few more minutes before Elena showed up. Everyone was surprised to see her after 4 months but I could tell that she wasn't really in the mood to talk so before anyone could say anything to her I said
"Right, now that everyone is here. Let's get started. Garcia" She got up and began speaking
"Attention, intrepid BAU adventurers. The entertainment capital of the world has requested your help" Morgan then questioned
"Vegas?" garcia then said
"I was going to say…" To everyone's surprise Elena cut her off by saying
"Los Angeles, we're going to Los Angeles"
"Correctamundo. Which is a word I've never said before and never will again. But back to the task at hand. Here we go…" she then pressed a button on her remote and the image changed to one of the murder victims….
