Chapter 1
"Just leave me alone, Reid." Morgan whispered tiredly as he walked away from Reid.
"I just want to make sure that you're alright, Morgan."
"I will be if you just leave me alone!" Morgan burst out, leaving Reid rather uneasy.
Reid knew how much Morgan would be disturbed each time they have case involving abused kids and this time, it was worst when of the boys died in Morgan's arms. They didn't make it in time, the small boy died, and Morgan blamed himself.
"Morgan..."
"Do you understand, Reid?" Morgan shouted. "Leave. me. alone."
Reid has to admit, he was caught off guard. He didn't expect Morgan to yell at him but Reid understand.
"Okay." Reid whispered. "Okay."
Morgan, feeling rather annoyed turned away from Reid and started to cross the road, too much diverted by his thought to realize a semi truck speeding towards him.
He didn't realize even a bit but Reid did and by the time Morgan knew what was happening, he was too late ... again.
Reid saw the semi truck speeding towards Morgan.
He couldn't let Morgan get hurt, Morgan has suffered too much this week. He jumped in front of it to push him out of the way. He felt the sharp impact of the collision smash against his body as he hit the truck.
"Reid!" Morgan screamed as he saw in horror Reid's body smashing against the truck. The truck had skidded to a stop and Morgan ran towards Reid's unconscious body.
"Spencer!" He called, tears staining his face and he doesn't care. He kneel beside the young man, his hands were shaking when he got to him. There was blood, so much blood. Reid clothes were torn, his body was twisted and his leg was broken.
"I didn't see him!" The truck driver cried. "I am so sorry!"
Morgan doesn't care about anything about that moment "We need medics now!" He cried. With a shaking hand, he felt for a pulse and breathed out when he found a weak one.
"Reid, I am so sorry," Morgan sobbed. Reid looked like a dead body lying over on the road. Morgan hated seeing himself, Reid was just trying to help and ... God, he hate himself.
Seconds later, the ambulance came. The paramedics said he was in bad shape, but they didn't know how bad. They kept on shouting something.
"He is not responding."
Morgan doesn't care for anything at that moment, he kept on praying for a miracle.
Morgan glared at the scene where the paramedic working on Reid with disgust. If something happens to Reid, he would kill himself.
"260! Clear!"
"Is he..." Morgan asked in a small voice.
"He's alive, we got him back."
Finally, Morgan remembered how to breathe.
Morgan found Hotch's number on the very top of his contact list.
"Morgan?"
"Morgan?" Hotch said quickly again with confusion in his voice when he didn't get Morgan's reply "What happen?"
"Reid tried talking to me and I turned him down, we both were ... "Morgan inhaled. "And I was in the middle of the road. A semi truck suddenly appeared out of nowhere ..."
Hotch remained quiet, preparing himself for the worst.
"And..."His voice trembled. "Reid pushed me out of the way and the truck hit him..."
Morgan stopped talking and Hotch knew Morgan was crying.
"We are on our way to the hospital."
"I will meet you at the hospital." Hotch whispered. "I will inform the others."
"Hotch ...I am so so sorry." Morgan cried like a kid as he held Reid's whitish hand.
"It's okay, it's not your fault." Hotch said even thought he knows that his words wouldn't lessen Morgan's pain.
Morgan hung up the phone, he stared at the young man's face, his team member, his best friend who would do anything for him, his little brother ...who was laying motionlessly. Morgan held Reid's cold hand, prayed that Reid would survive.
"I am so sorry, kid." Morgan begged, although he knew the damage was done. Reid almost died and it was his fault.
Tears rolled down Morgan's cheeks and he didn't care about the stare the paramedic gave him. Nothing was important to him now except for his best friend's life.
He would do anything in the world for it.
Reid has to survive because if he don't Morgan wasn't sure if he could forgive himself.
