"Spence…GET DOWN!"

Grace woke up, gasping, with sweat streaming down from her forehead. It took a moment for her to calm down, to even her breathing pattern as she rubbed her sweat with her sleeves. She turned to her right side immediately. Reid was sleeping soundly, his calming face clearly visible in the darkness.

Automatically, Grace bent over and lay beside Reid. As she laid her head on Reid's shoulder, nuzzling into his neck, she gripped a fistful of his shirt, holding him closer to him.

She positioned herself beside him carefully, not to cause any discomfort to Reid, herself or to her baby bump.

"Grace…" Reid mumbled groggily.

Grace remained silent as she held him tight, trying to control her emotions.

"Grace." Reid called, being fully awake. "Are you okay?"

Grace nodded, upset with the overwhelming emotions striking her.

Reid carefully held her chin, pulled her head up and looked into her eyes. Her eyes said it all.

"Grace, did you have a nightmare again?"

Grace kept quiet.

"What did you see?"

Grace just shook her head.

Reid bent his head down and kissed her lightly on her lips. "It's just a dream. It doesn't mean anything."

Grace remained still, refusing to let her grip on Reid's go.

Moving slightly to his left side, Reid used his left elbow to prop him up. Reid was looking into the eyes he has loved beyond reasons.

Placing his hand on her face, he used his thumb to caress it gently. "It's just a bad dream. Nothing happened to me. You won't rid of me that easily, okay? Not now, when we are building a family together." His hand went down and rested on her baby bump.

Grace cleared her throat. "I know, it's just that … it keeps coming back. The more I want to forget about the shooting, the more I dream about you bleeding on the floor …"

Grace continued. "I know what I think, how I feel will affect our baby, I just want to forget all these."

"I know." Reid nodded. He knew how she was feeling. There were times, when he had nightmares, those horror filled visions of Grace bleeding out, dying in his arms. But he steadied himself, he knew Grace needed him more than anything.

"I learned that the best thing we can do is to focus on positive things, have you to think of the name yet?" Reid changed the topic of discussion.

"You won the bet, you should be thinking of the name." Grace raised her eyebrows, smiling slightly.

Reid grinned. "I told you, it would be a girl."

Grace smirked.

Reid bent down, kissed her baby bump, before he went up and kissed her forehead tenderly.

"I love you." Reid whispered before he laid down again "Go back to sleep, I will watch over you. Like always."

"I love you too."

Snuggling closer to Reid, having the touch of his warmth and feeling safer than usual, Grace slipped into dreamless sleep.

Reid knew Grace had slept, but he doesn't know if he could. He knew how nightmares has been troubling Grace ever since she was discharged from the hospital. Although the rate of occurrences has dropped lately, he still doesn't like the impact it has on Grace.

Reid sighed inwardly, and closed his eyes, hoping for sleep to show some mercy on him.

"Spence, you look awful." JJ looked at Reid's tired eyes. "Did you sleep last night?"

Reid nodded, taking sips of his coffee.

"Liar." Garcia playfully slapped his shoulder.

"Reid, is everything alright?" Hotch asked, concerned.

Reid looked around, the eyes of his team mates plastered on him. "It's just, Grace … she has been having nightmares."

"She still gets those nightmares?" Morgan asked, bringing everyone's attention on him.

Reid nodded. Morgan was the only one truly knew everything that has been going on.

"What nightmares?" Garcia asked, looking back and forth between Morgan and Reid.

"The shooting, and me, dying in front of her."

"How's Grace doing?" JJ asked, worried.

"Honestly, she has been a lot better, she keep herself busy, but you know at nights, especially when I fly out for a case, it's bad."

Hotch finally understood. He always wondered why Reid has been on his phone whenever they were not working on the case and thought that it must have been because Grace was pregnant and mentally feeling guilty for never really asked Reid about it.

"Reid, you could have said something." Hotch spoke.

"I didn't want to distract you guys."

"Reid, for the time being, I think it would be wise for you to stay back and work on the case from here."

Reid started Hotch with surprise, not that he's not appreciating the offer. "Are you sure? I thought of asking near her due date."

Hotch nodded. "We can manage, Reid." Hotch looked at others and they nodded, agreeing to Hotch's suggestion.

"Thanks, Hotch."

"And one more thing." Hotch went on. "Go back, take the rest of the day off."

"I'm fine, Hotch … I."

"Reid," Morgan called. "Go back before I dump you out of the office."

Smiling weakly, Reid gathered his things and walked out the office.

Garcia sighed when Reid vanished from her vision.

"What it is, Babygirl?"

"I didn't know Grace was having a bad time."

Morgan looked at the others as well, "He was sharing with me and I thought it should his place to tell about this to you guys, not me."

"We understand, Morgan." Rossi spoke for the first time. "At least, he shared with you."

"I was thinking." Garcia broke the silence after a few moments. "There is something we can do to cheer them up."

Grace woke up to the wonderful aroma coming from the kitchen. Getting up, Grace refreshed herself before walking out to the kitchen.

"Hey, you're awake." Reid whispered when he felt arms wrapping around his waist from behind.

"Smells so good."

Reid turned his head and kissed Grace on the side of her head. "Hope it taste good as how it smells."

Reid took a spoonful of the noodles he prepared and held it out for Grace. "Does it taste alright?"

"Hmm." Grace chewed her noodles. "Yummy, Spence, you're getting better day by day."

Reid feed Grace another spoonful of noodles. "I'm sure noodles by Rossi will taste much delicious."

Grace shrugged. "Maybe, but he can't add the one ingredient that you have added in for me."

Reid frowned. "What's that?"

Grace gave Reid a quick peck on his lips. "The love you have for me."

Sincere apologies for the mistakes. Please review. Thank you.
