Disclaimer:
I do not own Criminal Minds. But if I did, Oooooh poor Dr. Spencer Reid. I'll be having him do -er help with- my homework....*hehehe* And if I did, I might just get killed, or praised, which ever way you see it because this is what I'd do: I'd give Reid a girl who's funny, Street smart, cute, outgoing (basically Danielle). I'd FINALLY make Morgan and Garcia a couple. JJ and Will would finally get married (Don't remember if they did, don't think so though). Prentiss would finally get a boyfriend. I would make Hailey come to her senses and go back to Hotch. Oh and I'd give Rossi a real life. I mean as soon as Reid gets a girl, he'd have a life and Rossi needs one. So Yeah. I'd either get killed or praised. So I guess I'm both sad and happy I don't own it.
Ok. Loooooong disclaimer but on with show-Er- Story! hehe alright. I also know that technically now Morgan's in charge but to me it will always be Hotch.. continuing...............
If you love someone, let them go. If it comes back to you, they're yours forever. If they don't, It was never meant to be.
There was a coolness in the air. Everyone felt it and knew what happened. They knew that something happened between Reid and Danielle. The two hadn't even spoken to each other over breakfast. Now as they were in the work room, Danielle avoided all eye contact with Reid. Obviously she was mad at him about something. She volunteered to go out and didn't even glance over at Reid. She was avoiding him completely. After they piled out and Tammy walked out to take care of something. now the room had only BAU agents. Reid was staring out the door. He stepped out for a minute. Morgan followed him.
"So what's with you two?" Morgan asked. "Reid?"
"Huh?" He asked looking up.
"You. Danielle. What's going on?"
"I don't know." Reid sighed. He looked away.
"I think different. I think you do. And you know you can tell me right?" Reid gave in.
"Danielle's mad at me because She hid the CIA thing to protect me and I said she didn't have to and she got mad. I really would rather not talk about this alright?" He asked.
"Ok. But if you do, I'm her for ya man." Morgan said putting a hand on Reid's back.
"I know." Reid said and walked back into the room. Garcia looked a Morgan from her spot at the computer. She just shrugged at him, going back to his work, and he followed his co-worker.
"Too much damn drama in relationships." He mumbled under his breath.
"Danny," Becky said while the two of the walked the streets together. Danielle ignored her. "Danny!"She said grabbing her friend. "I've never seen you like this. What the hell's going on?"
"Oh Becks." Danielle wailed. "This is ridiculous. Reid and I are fighting."
"Why?"
"Because, Shawn told him somethings and we were talking about it and I asked him who did he believe and he threw the few secrets I kept from him, my singing and CIA. He said that I didn't need to protect him, that he could take care of himself. So I chucked the ice pack at him and left. So like I said, it's stupid."
"Tell me more about him." Becky said.
"Well he absolutely loves classical music, preferably Beethoven. He reads a lot of technical manuals. Oh, the next few things no one else must know alright?"
"Pinky swear." She said holding out one of her pinky's. Danielle locked her pinky with Becky's.
"Ok." Danielle started, as she touched Becky's arm to get her to stop. "His mother is a schizophrenic and he was a narcotics addict."
"What?!" Becky said after the last part.
"What happened was before we met, he was kidnapped and his kidnapper used to inject him with some Narcotic. It was horrible. He got clean right before we met. I told him I'd be there for him if he relapses the first time, but after that... I don't know." Danielle sighed.
"You know that in a fight like this," Becky paused, searching for the right words. Concern shining in her eyes and ringing in her voice. "You know this whole fight could make him relapse again."
"I know!" Danielle wailed. "But what do I do? I don't have any secrets from him anymore. Except a couple beauty secrets, but I doubt he wants to know that." Becky laughed.
"Just talk to him to night. Look," She said pointing to the house in front of them. "We're here. Come on." Danielle and Becky hurried up the stairs.
Danielle walked into her hotel room late that night. Work had been tiresome on her and all she wanted to do was crash. She took a twenty minute shower that night and slipped on her "I heart my bed" Pj's with a heart for the word heart. She walked over to her bed and sat down. Her wet hair leaning against a pillow. She opened her search-a-word puzzle book and began looking. About three words in, She looked up, remembering what she had to do. Putting her book and her uncapped pink highlighter down on the bed, she slipped on her black crushed velvet robe and her green frog slippers. She shook her hair to mess it up and presses a towel around to dry it up a bit. She smiled as she looked at herself in the mirror. You could definitely tell that she and Penelope Garcia were best friends. She slipped both of her room keys into her pockets. She opened the door and looked down both ends of the hallway. She stepped out and hurried over to Reid's door. She knocked on it. Reid opened it. He was wearing a pair of sweatpants and a long sleeved thermal. His hair was also drippy. It was one of the few times he looked normal. She fought down the smile that threatened to come up at the corners of her mouth.
"Danielle?" He asked Confused.
"Hey." She said. "May I come in?"
"Of Course." He said moving out of the way and opening the door.
"I'm sooo Sorry Spencer!" Danielle said sitting down on the bed that was in the middle of the room. "This is all my fault and I know you're going to hate me but-"
"Danielle." He said going over to her and joining her on the bed. "It's not just you're fault. I shouldn't have even have had any doubt in my mind at all. It was only natural. I don't hate you and I never could." Danielle got up and walked back to the door.
"Oh yes you would Spence."
"No. I never could. I can't think of anything that would make me hate you Dan. It's impossible. I love you." Spencer said, coming over and putting his hands on her shoulders. Danielle turned around and kissed him, hard. After a few seconds, she pulled away.
"I just needed one more kiss." She said softly. "I love you too."
"Then just tell me what you need to." He said just as softly as he while lifting a piece of damp hair out her face.
"It's just," She started softly. "I need someone to talk to and I told everything to Becky. And I mean everything, About you and the fight and it all." She said frantically. Without thinking, she plowed her head into Reid's chest. He put a hand an her back as he felt her body shake with a sob. He pulled her closer to his body.
"I'm not mad at you Danny." He said rubbing his back.
"Your- Your not?" She asked, lifting her head to look at him.
"No." He said shaking his head. "Why don't we sit down?" They walked back over to his bed and sit down. "Danny, I'm not mad at you."
"Why not?" She asked squeezing his hand.
"I understand that you need to talk to someone and If you trust Rebecca, then fine." Danielle's smiled and her eyes just grew a little bigger.
"I was thinking all last night and today about you. I became worried. Babe, a lone thought had crept into my mind. But please don't be mad at me for it though."
"What's with you being so worried? Anything you tell me is reasonable, or at least it has been so far. I promise you I won't get mad at you."
"Really?" She asked in a way that made her seem like she was almost twelve, instead of twenty-two. it's something Reid has always love about her.
"Really." He said, squeezing her hand.
"Alright," She said, hesitantly. "Well, Becky also brought up the fact of a relapse and that this fight could possible cause one. I really don't want you to turn back to narcotics to solve you're problems. I just- I don't think I'd be able to live with the fact that I had started a fight that made you relapse. It killed me on the inside. I mean every time I think of you using, I know you're killing some of those brain cells that make you, well you. And I just don't want you to do that to yourself, ever again." She stopped and looked down at her knees, not wanting to see his face, or actually the disappointment or the anger that she imagined on his face.
"Danny," Reid said with a softness in his voice. "I'm not going to. I mean I used to think that the needle brought bliss, but all it really did was bring me more pain, and old memories that I had tucked away forever. They had been brought back to the surface. But with you, all that pain brought by the needle and the pain I wanted gone, It all disappears with you. But even if we don't make it, You've taught me I don't need things like that." Danielle turned up and looked at him.
"Really?" She asked Tentatively looking up at him.
"Yeah." Reid said. "And I'm glad that your that concerned." Danielle threw her arms around his neck.
"Oh Spencer!" She said. "I'm really glad that you're not mad. I was so afraid that-"
"I'd hate you and never want to talk to you again?" He said, repeating what she had said earlier.
"Yeah." She answered. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be- you know- all blah." he laughed slightly.
"It's alright." He said hugging her. She yawned. "Why don't you go back into you're room and go to bed." She pulled away and nodded.
"Alright." She said wiping her eyes from the few tears that had leaked out, which surprised her because they burned with tiredness. "Yeah. I had better." She stood up still holding Reid hand. They walked over and he opened the door. She pulled him in for a kiss. While in his embrace, she slipped her spare room key onto his counter. They pulled away and Danielle walked back into her bedroom. She went back over to her bed -or the bed she was sleeping it because it wasn't technically her bed- and then started her puzzle book again. A few minutes and several words later, Danielle heard a noise at her door. She looked up to see Reid standing right there. A small smile came onto her lips.
"You a, left you're room key in my room" He said.
"I didn't leave it in there by accident." She said. "Come here, I need help anyways." She said moving over and tapping the bed.
"I really should get back to-" He said pointing over his shoulder.
"Pu-leee-ze!" Danielle said with her puppy-dog face, and her eyes wide, her lashes going up and down.
"With what?" Reid said giving in to her. He closed her door and coming over.
"This crossword. I can't find the word Destiny." She said. Laying down next to her, Reid pointed to the word in the puzzle. They continued doing this for a while until they finished the puzzle.
"Ok. Now I should get back to my room." He said getting up. Danielle put a hand on his arm and pulled him down.
"Don't go! I need you Spence." She said softly. "After everything. I just really need you."
"But if they-" He said with a bit of worry. Doing something against the rules wasn't something he normally did.
"Screw them. Spencey, I need you." She said one final time.
"I need you too Danny." He said laying back down. Danielle curled into Reid and fell asleep easily. Reid, however, lay there with Danielle, letting her sleep. He was touched that she cared enough about him to worry. Slowly, he felt the darkness of sleep coming around him and he welcomed it because he was near Danielle.
Ok. So the fights over. I know it was quick but i think that I've got some other things planned out in my head to really turn this thing around but I need your votes and opinions.
