Reid/OC

Chapter Eleven

Spencer could feel the sweat begin to drip from his forehead. The team was in position. The cars were ready. The operation had to just get underway.

He grew nervous to open Lisa's door. knowing once they left there was no turning back, No messing up. He took a deep breath and entered.

"Hi Spencer."

Lisa was sitting in a wheel chair, dressed and ready for the operation to go under way.

She took a long look at him and her eyes grew worry. "Wow, you 'don't' look nervous… Just relax." She said. She could tell he was scared. He explained everything that was gonna happen and she knew it was risky. In her condition and the amount of people to trust, there was really no one but the team to rely on.

He walked over and crouched down to meet her eyes.

" I've never done anything like this before…but I promise that i'm gonna keep you safe. No one will hurt you like this again."

She looked into his eyes and smiled. She grew happiness from his nervous words of encouragement. She clasped his hand that was resting on the arm of the chair.

" I know Spencer. I Trust you… Let's do this!" She noted, signaling she was ready when they were.

He grabbed his telephone.

It rang twice before it was answered. "Get ready. We're coming down."

UnSub POV

I waited for them to move. They figured out what I was doing and I had to keep my distance. They were hot on my trailOne of the hospital nurses pushed her wheelchair to the black SUV. The one with Authority and the muscle man sat up front while the skinny one helped her into the back seat. The Skinny one watches as they drive off and enters back into the hospital. I watched them drive away and I follow quietly four cars back.

Back to General POV

Hotch watched the cars from the Hospital and was getting suspicious of the other cars following behind. One red car he noticed has been following from the hospital. Every turn he made, the red car would follow several cars from behind.

"Look sharp cause I believe our UnSub is observing us." He noted.

They drove for almost thirty minutes till they got to their location. They drove to Derek's house. They sat in the car and waited to see the red car approach.

In the rear-view they could see the red cars bumper parked three blocks down. " He's in position, Let's keep playing normal." He turned back to his team.

Emily wore Lisa's similar hospital clothes and sat in the wheel chair. A hospital nurse who volunteered to help accompanied her and the team fulfilled the operation.

Back at the hospital…

Lisa and Spencer were in another black SUV with Rossi and Penelope. They waited till Hotch confirmed a car following them to move out of the hospital.

Rossi watched as Spencer comforted Lisa who seemed to be in pain from the movement of the car.

" How are you doing back there?" He asked.

Lisa took a deep breath and nodded to him. She grasped Spencer's hand assuring him she was okay. "I'll feel better when I'm back in a bed." She added.

He brushed a hair out of her eyes and hugged her slightly.

"Penelope, Anyone following us?" Spencer wondered. She shook her head.

"No, nothing from what I could tell. I'm pretty sure we're on our own." She noted.

Spencer mentioned a place not too far from the hospital. The closest place she could stay that was convenient to the hospital was Lisa's apartment. They knew they couldn't go to Lisa's apartment so they decided the next closest place. Spencer's apartment across the street. The nurse who volunteered said she would be there every day to check on her and to provide her medication she needed, allowed by her real doctor.

"We need to move quick, and we need to lose the chair. Think you can manage Reid?" Rossi asked looking towards Lisa, implying to Carry her.

"uh….I think so…" He said, nervously. He kept thinking about hurting her, or even dropping her. Those quickly went away when she gave him a smile of confidence.

"Ok Coast is clear." Rossi said and exited the drivers seat. He and Penelope walked to the door to hide them as best as they could.

Spencer scooped one arm under her kneed as her arms wrapped around his neck.

Lisa leaned in her face into his shoulder and she couldn't help but sink him in. He smelled like Soap and coffee.

"Are you okay?" Spencer asked, making sure he wasn't hurting her.

"Yes, just don't walk too fast, it's uncomfortable." she warned, feeling the ache when he moved too fast.

Once they were inside, Spencer immediately laid her on his bed. She exhaled softly now feeling better. Spencer looked at her getting comfortable. He instantly felt better now that she was safer inside. He just hoped the plan worked.

"Is there anything you need?" He asked, not sure of what to do next.

"Just my blood testing kit, and if you could put my medicine in the fridge." She said, getting more comfortable. He placed her testing kit next to the bed and moved to the kitchen.

Garcia and Rossi were at the doorway about to leave. "If you need anything just call us. We'll be here in a jiffy." Penelope said leaving with Rossi.

Once they were out, Spencer turned all four locks on the door. He let out a deep breath and moved back to the bedroom.

He looked inside to see her still laying in the bed. All he could think of was her. She's has changed so much in his life that he finally realized that she was making him…Happy. He Saw her trying to sit up and failing and moved quickly to her side.

"what are you doing?"

She looked at the fatigue in his eyes and admitted she felt bad for him.

"I'm not taking your bed. You haven't slept in a bed for three days, i bet your body is begging for it." she argued, but she lost when Spencer slightly pushed her shoulders to stay in the bed.

"I assure you that I can handle the couch for a few days. Besides, you need to rest. Get comfy, i'll put on an episode of Star Trek. Anything you want to eat?"

For some reason the butterflies in her stomach were cartwheeling.

A few hours went by and Lisa was taking a nap. Spencer reviewed the unsub profile. Trying to put the pieces together of the case. He tried to keep calm in his chair, trying not to look into his bedroom and the women sleeping in the bed. He looked back at the profile and paperwork from the days that lead to now.

Then his body jumped in there was a scream from the bedroom that scared him out of thought. He ran inside to see Lisa thrashing in the sheets fighting another nightmare.

"Sshh, Lisa. It's alright." He tried to wake her, Keeping her arms down on the bed so she couldn't hurt herself. She was screaming and It broke Spencer's heart.

"Stop! Please! SPENCER HELP!"

The tears fell from her closed eye lids.

"I'm here, Lisa. Wake up. I'm right here." he said caressing her hair from her face.

The icy blue irises glared at Spencer and she was instantly calm. She knew she was safe again.

"I'm sorry. I…I guess it might take a while to…"

He took her hand and placed it at his heart. "Don't be sorry. Nightmares are natural. They come and go. I still have them from time to time."

Her heartbeat grew fast and excited, but at the same time she was exhausted. All she wanted was to feel better and Spencer was doing that for her.

He could tell she was thinking something in her mind and wondered "What's wrong?" He asked.

"Spencer… Can you lay with me…so I could fall asleep?" she asked.

He leaned close, wanting to kiss her lips…but he stopped short. He didn't want to take advantage of her in her weak state. So he kissed her forehead and laid her down gently back onto the bed.

She was grateful. He felt so warm and smelled like coffee and soap. He put a protective arm around her chest and she hugged it, and held tight for the rest of the night as both agents fell asleep.
