Chapter 6

For the next eight days nothing seemed to bother Morgan much. All he does for the rest of the day was to just sit there and gaze at Reid continuously. Thanks to Hotch and his FBI badge, Morgan was placed in the same with Reid until he will be discharged. Nobody was successful in getting Morgan out of the room at least for once even his mother. Morgan was progressing, his injuries were healing and the pain level was dropped tremendously and also there was something regarding Reid's health that Morgan was very happy about.

Reid was breathing on his own. The ventilator and trach which Reid was hooked up for the past few days to help him to breath has been removed. Morgan was able to inhale comfortably when much of the machines around Reid was detached from him. Reid was left with only an EKG machine, pulse oximeter and a nasogastric tube. Although Reid was still in a coma, at least the sight of him with less machines, tubes and wires gave enough hope to Morgan that he would wake any time soon. Morgan never stopped praying though. All he and rest rest of the team ever wanted was Reid to wake up.

"Derek." Fran called lovingly.

"Yeah?" Morgan asked, sitting up straight on the lazy chair given to him. Morgan rubbed his eyes with his knuckles before he looked at his mother.

"Why don't you get out of here for a while, get some fresh air?"

"What's wrong with the air in the room? It's seems fine for me." Morgan answered normally.

"Derek, you now what I mean."

"I … I just don't want leave him alone." Morgan said. "I don't want him to be scared when he wakes up."

"He won't because I am going to sit here with him until you get down and have lunch with Garcia in the park."

"Momma …"

"I am not taking 'no' as an answer." Fran turned around. "Gracia, he is all yours."

Gracia walked in almost immediately. "Thanks, Fran. Let's get you out for a while."

Morgan sighed before he turned to Reid. "I will be back in a while, okay?" Morgan gripped Reid's hand once before he got up and walked out of the room with Garcia's help.

Fran sat on the chair vacated by Morgan and turned back to Reid when Morgan has left the room.

"He is nagging a bit too much, doesn't he? Fran smiled. "Well, that's the whole new side Derek that perhaps you have never seen before. He loves being protective of the person he cares. You are definitely on the top of his list right now."

Fran's smile washed out. She leaned in, whispering. "I really hope you will wake up soon, Spencer. Derek might be healing just fine physically but only you can save him emotionally."

"Just wake up, okay?" Fran squeezed Reid's hand before she leaned back on the chair.

"You didn't." Morgan mumbled when he saw the rest of the team on the bench at the other end of the park in the hospital.

"Yes, I did." Garcia wrapped her hands around his waist. "Why wouldn't we? We miss you."

"Hey, Morgan." Emily said happily when she saw Morgan walking together with Garcia.

"Hey, guys. Wow, there's a lot of food."

"Blame Rossi." Hotch said, smiling. Once they finish eating, Hotch said. "Come on, Morgan, let's take a walk."

"I guess we could." Morgan said before he walked over and joined Hotch.

"How are you doing?" Hotch asked when they were a bit far away from the rest.

"I don't really know how to answer that." Morgan said honestly as he sat down on a bench near the small fountain in the park.

"Morgan, I…"

"We were just driving back…" Morgan cut in.

Hotch totally stopped thinking about he wanted to say and focused on Morgan.

"Reid was telling me how much he missed coffee because of the cold weather." Morgan recalled the misfortune that fall on them. "then, there was one black van just behind us, it was definitely following us, it stopped when we did and Reid was about to call you when the van rammed us from behind and another stupid one van hit us from the side."

"They just wanted to divert our attention on you guys so that they could shift the bodies out of the property." Hotch said.

Morgan turned and looked at Hotch. "You mean … the bodies…"

"Yes. Han used his so called 'faithful workers' to get rid of you guys so that he could use the time we spend to save you guys to dispose the dead bodies."

"So …"

"Han and the rest were charged in kidnapping, raping and murder of those four girls and also for the attempted murder of two federal agents."

"So, they are gone, right?" Morgan reconfirmed.

"Dead sentences with lethal injection in a couple days."

"They deserves it after what they did to those innocent girls and Reid." Morgan mumbled.

"And to you too."

Hotch and Morgan spent another fifteen minutes talking before they joined the rest again.

"I want to see Uncle Spencer." Henry said, sitting beside JJ.

"I am not really sure about that." JJ said.

"I can take him." Morgan said. "You want to come with me, Henry?"

"Can I, mommy?" Henry pleaded.

"Okay." JJ agreed. "Just don't…"

"I won't." Henry said, jumping out of the bench and gripped Morgan's hand.

"Garcia." Rossi called when he saw Garcia getting up from the bench. "I am sure Morgan will be fine with Henry."

"Why don't you send your mother down, Morgan? We still have some food for her." Emily said.

"Will do." Morgan replied before he walked back in with Henry.

Once both Morgan and Henry have reached back, Morgan sent Fran down to have her lunch with the team.

Morgan slipped his hands under Henry's armpit and carried him up to Reid's bed.

"Why is Uncle Spencer sleeping for so long?" Henry asked looking at Reid.

Morgan thought for a second. "He is sick."

"But … I never sleep for so long when I was sick." Henry answered.

"Why don't you tell Uncle Spencer that? Tell him that you miss him and maybe he will wake up."

"Really?" Henry asked excitedly.

"We can try." Morgan smiled.

"Okay." Henry crawled closer to Reid. "Uncle Spencer… wake up. I miss you."

Morgan listened to Henry talking to Reid as he walked to end to of the room to grab a glass of water. Morgan gulped down a mouthful of water as he looked out of the window.

"Uncle Morgan … look!" Henry screamed out of a sudden.

Henry's scream was just too loud that the glass Morgan was holding slipped down from his hand, crashing onto the floor automatically.

"What?" Morgan asked even before he turned around, looking at Henry.

Henry pointed his hand towards something. Morgan followed the tiny hand and gasped when he saw Reid's eyes fluttered open, staring at him.
