"You're all here for Mr. Reid?" asked the doctor.
"Dr. Reid" corrected Hotch automatically, the doctor looked at him confused but didn't press the matter.
"Dr. Reid is fine, the surgery was a success, but we are going to keep him over night to make sure there weren't any complications" explained the doctor.
"Well can we see him?" asked Morgan impatiently.
"Of course, but be sure not to cause him any stress or panic" cautioned the doctor, the team filed into Reid's room.
"Wake up Reid" said Morgan softly, Reid stirred slightly, but didn't wake up "Come on pretty boy open those eyes" Reid finally opened up his eyes, he felt groggy and heavy.
"Morgan?" he asked hoarsely "Hotch?"
"We're all here kid" Morgan said soothingly.
"What about Spencer?" he asked struggling to sit up in the hospital bed, Hotch closed his eyes tightly, Morgan just sighed "She's gone isn't she?"
"Ya kid, she's gone" Morgan's shoulders dropped, Reid's eyes drooped, that was when he noticed an envelope in Hotch's hand.
"Hotch, who's that letter from?" asked Reid though he was pretty sure he already knew the answer.
"Nothing, it's nothing" said Hotch quickly.
"Read it Hotch" said Reid seeing right through Hotch's lie, Hotch sighed and rubbed his forehead, but he opened the letter and began to read.
"Dear BAU team,
Guess who? That's right it's your favourite 13 year old girl Reed Spencer, I'm hope Reid is alright, I assume he is, he is Reid after all. I hope by leaving I didn't cause any more trouble, it's the reason I left. I am sorry we didn't get to know each other better, you may have liked me if you saw passed everything. So since I'm one I'd you to tell the team something for me. Tell Morgan not to blame himself for everything, tell Prentiss it's okay to break down once in a while and compartmentalizing isn't always the answer. Tell Garcia that she rocks, and she shouldn't ever change who she is, tell Rossi that he needs to get to know his team better, one day they might be gone. Tell J.J that I hope Henry is doing well, tell Reid goodbye and to try and forget me. And Hotch, for god's sake would you smile once in a while?
Yours Truly,
Reed Spencer" Hotch finished and looked up at everyone.
Prentiss was shocked and looked like she was about to break down right then and there, J.J was crying again. Morgan looked somewhat angry, Rossi was frowning and looking around to see everyone elses reaction, and Reid looked devastated.
"She wants me to forget her" whispered Reid.
"Reid" said Morgan, but he was at a loss for what else to say.
"She wanted me to forget her!" Reid said more clearly.
"Reid you can't blame yourself for this" said Hotch.
"Of course I can" he said sounding slightly delusioned "She wanted me to forget her, I can't just do-" Reid's face suddenly went white, he started to gasp for air and looked at everyone in panic.
"Reid, REID" shouted Morgan. "Nurse!" he shouted out the door.
"REID" shouted Hotch, the rest of the team began to panic, a few nurses rushed in, there was a mass confusion, of yelling and stumbling around.
...
Spencer leaned her head against the window of the train she was on, suddenly she felt a harsh pain in her chest. She gasped, and choked on air.
"Reid" she breathed.
