"I said, I'm not going to answer questions..."Rodney said finally and closed his eyes. Morgan had the impression as if he tried hard to concentrate not to burst out in rage one more time.
"Okay, let it fall... we can clarify this later anyway." Morgan said to calm him down. He was getting tired of acting like this. Usually, he had to be the one that needed to be calm down, as some cases were often getting to his emotionally limit. But today... it was clear that this Rodney Stewart had a problem. He didn't know what kind of problem, but there was definitely something. And Reid... he was acting strange as well. Of what he had seen from his head wound, it didn't looked that bad. However, he was like he was not himself. He always cared for Reid like he was his younger brother and it made him sad that the boy didn't trust him enough what his problem was. Of course, he was trapped in here and actually he knew that Reid really don't like it to be trapped in somewhere... who would? It was just that he was acting weird before. Unsecure. Maybe... maybe he'd tell him once they were getting out of here.
"Morgan"
Reid's hoarse voice was bringing him back to reallity. He looked over to the younger profiler and tried to ignore that Rodney was starring at him.
"Yeah, Reid?"
"I... I just wanted to say... I wrote a message to Garcia before when I got out of the car before we entered this building. I'm sure... We should have been back by now, I'm sure that they're on there way..."
"And you decided not to tell us?!" Rodney suddenly interrupted him. Morgan nearly jumped up. God... this guy's really... unpredictable!
"Sir, if we are not allowed to ask you questions, you have to stay calm until we are rescued..." Morgan started. He was stunned as well that Reid had forgotten to tell them. It confused him as well, since Reid never forgot anything. And it scared him.
He heard Rodney taking some deep breaths, and indeed, he didn't say anything anymore. Morgan could see that he bite his lower lips.
Damn it! How could he forget about telling Morgan about the message? This had been important information...
Reid sighed. His headach nearly killed him, and he still could feel that some thickend liquid slowly dribbled down his face. He really wasn't feeling well, so much was clear. His thoughts, however, seemed to be drifting away every now and then as soon as he tried to concente on what was going on in this damn elevator. He had heard Morgan saying something loudly... and then there was this stranger who still didn't want to answer to the questions they certainly had to ask him. Maybe... maybe he should have told Morgan that he had those headaches when he entered the building. He was feeling like that already some hours after his team had made the little birthday surprise. However, he found that it was not that important since he already suffered from headaches before, and the medicins still hadn't found anything.
He just whished that he could stand up and get out of here... just not to be in this small cabin anymore...
Next he knew was that he thought of hearing Hotch's voice. Great, he thought bitterly. I'm getting hallucinations already..."
...
At the police departement, two hours before
"JJ, shouldn't Morgan and Reid be back by now? I thought they just wanted to question this guy.." Hotch asked the blond. They were sitting in a conference room in the local police departement in front of a big whiteboard. They had pinned up the pics of the three victims and one of Rodney Stewart. Reid had figured out that he was the only connection, since he was supposed to search properties for them. Hotchner had sent them where he should having his office. However, they should have been back by an hour already, and it wasn't like them to be late. Maybe there had been problems with the suspect...
JJ looked at her watch, already with a worried look . Her boss was right, of course. Reid and Morgan would have called as soon as they knew that they were going to be late.
"Yeah... I'm going to call Reid, just to check if everything's alright" she said and tried to act as if there was nothing. Hotch always hid his emotions very well, but for her, it wasn't that easy if, especially if it was concerning Reid. Ever since the Tobias Henkel case, she cared for the youngest member of their team like he was her younger brother. Of course, the whole team was her family, and she would be worried within the others as well.
She pulled out her mobile phone.
"I'm calling Morgan" Rossi told them next to her, and grabbed his phone as well. He hated situations like this. Well, there was maybe nothing to worry about, but he had a bad feeling somehow... Reid had been acting strange since his birthday, and Rossi was sure that it was something... not good. Reid and Morgan were both professional and if there's something going on, both try to hide it as best as they could. Morgan on the other hand was a bit more emotional, although he'd never admit it.
Rossi sighed as he dialed the number. He hoped that everything was alright.
One minute later, in Garcia's office, the colourful dressed woman saw Hotchners face appearing on her computer screen.
"Hey boss" she saluted him joyfully. "How can I help you?"
"Garcia, can you please track down Morgan's and Reid's mobile phones?" Hotch asked her straight away with his typical severe expression.
Immediately, Garcia's smile vanished, and although Hotch hadn't sounded worried, she could tell that he was due to the worried look of his eyes.
"Why do I need to track down their phones?" She asked, typing hectically the letters out of the keyboard. God, what if anything had happened?
"There's no need to worry, you know... Maybe they're just... they just have to do something important, I'm sure."
After a minute passed, she looked back to Hotch on the screen, tears filling hear eyes. She tried the best to stay calm and tell Hotch the... not really good news.
"I can't find them..." she said to him.
"What? How could this be... " Hotch was interrupted by Garcia.
"I-I don't know, either their phones are shut off or they don't have a signal... I only can track them if their phones are turned on..."
She made a pause. "Boss, what's going on there? They wouldn't just switch of the phone... I'm sure."
Hotch's showed a thoughtfull expression. "I'll find out. Don't worry, I'm sure that everything's alright."
And with that, he vanished from the screen and letting a very worried woman behind.
Aaaaaaaand cut :) oh, this is going to be excited, isn't it? I hope you really like this chapter and I also hope that you are not too confused :) Please don't forget to comment a Review, because as always, I really appreciate to hear your opinons :)
