Sorry it's short, I'm not really feeling it tonight. I'll try to get a better, longer one up tomorrow. I think I'm done writing tonight. Hope you enjoy. :)
I do not own Criminal Minds or any of their characters.
Will had taken Henry home later that night, but Spencer had insisted on staying. He wanted to be there when Hotch woke up, he was confident he'd wake up soon. JJ had let the boy have coffee to keep him awake, but she soon fell asleep. Spencer just sat there, sipping on his hot drink, staring at the older man. Why did bad things always happen? It seems more bad things happen than good things. Since he was born it's been this way.
Spencer shifted in his seat after he set his drink down and crossed his arms, the coffee wasn't even working. His eyes felt heavy, but he didn't want to sleep, though it happened anyway. He slept until the late morning, having had a dream about Hotch not making it through the night and leaving everyone he loves. Spencer rubbed his eyes and sat up, looking at the clock, it was nearly eleven a.m. and Hotch's condition was the same. The boy sighed and sat up, stretching his arms over his head and turned to look at the door for any activity.
There were nurses outside the room, walking back and forth between different rooms, their were people in the waiting room, and one familiar, curly haired boy running around asking questions. Spencer furrowed his eyebrows curiously before deciding to go check it out. He needed to stretch anyway.
Spencer stood and stretched once more before walking out of the room quietly, careful as to not disturb JJ. He walked down the hall and into the waiting room, watching the blonde boy scrambled around to different nurses, asking questions, looking terrified and jittery.
"Pete?" Spencer said, breaking the boy out of his trance.
"Spencer? Are you alright? You're not hurt are you?!" The boy asked question after question.
Spencer smiled and put a gentle hand on the younger boys shoulder, trying to calm him down, "Pete, I'm fine."
"Really? Then why are you at the hospital?" Pete questioned.
"My uh... Uncle, he was in a car accident last night. He's in a coma," Spencer said sadly before raising an eyebrow, "How did you know I was at the hospital?"
"I went to your house and your Dad told me," Pete said, letting out a relived breath, "I thought you were hurt!"
"No, I'm fine," Spencer chuckled.
"Spencer!" He suddenly heard the voice of JJ cry.
He looked to Pete with a worried expression before saying, "Stay here, I'll be right back."
Spencer then turned around and took off towards Hotch's room. He skid into the room and saw JJ standing at the end of the bed, several nurses surrounding Hotch.
"JJ? Is he alright?" Spencer asked.
JJ nodded and smiled, tears in her eyes, "Yes. He woke up."
