All mistakes are my own
Two days later
Garcia smiled as she watched Reid devour one her famous cupcakes, they sat happily together watching the television and eating an array of sweet treats that Garcia had brought for Reid. Garcia felt happier than she had in a long time, she had missed Reid so much and she was content with just sitting with him. She had spent almost two months trying to see him through CCTV to just make sure that he was alright, she knew though that the mental hospital had been hell for him. She would see his eyes darken at the mention of being there.
"Garcy, d-do you think that I-I'm a b-bad person?" Reid said as he still stared at the television. Garcia sighed and looked to Reid, it was clear to her that he was still struggling with his most recent abduction.
"No, I think you are good, you are purest person I know. Is this about Jay and Jason?" Garcia asked, she regretting asking when she saw Reid flinch at the two men's names. Reid bit his lower lip nervously again.
"I'm n-not pure, I-I'm tainted with w-what I did. I'm h-happy t-that they can't h-hurt me anymore and I kn-know I had to k-kill them or else they w-would have k-killed me. I just f-feel as if I should h-have died a long t-time ago, I don't kn-know what keeps me a-alive. I f-feel like k-killing t-them made me into o-one of them," Reid admitted, he turned to look at Garcia.
Garcia was shocked at what Reid had just told her. She never thought that Reid would feel that way. She got off her seat and sat on the edge of the Reid's bed. She gently turned Reid's chin so that he was facing, she moved her hand to stroke his cheek. Reid leaned into her hand slightly, he was comforted by her hand.
"Spencer Reid, you are a good man, you are a strong man. You are a source of good in the world, you always have been and you will continue to be. I never want you to think that you are like them. I never want you to think that killing them made you into one them. They were evil and the world is a better place now that they are dead. You are not tainted by what you did and you know the reason why you stay alive, you fight to stay alive because you know that you still have so much more life ahead of you. I want you to remember that you are good and that you are blessed with a family that will always look out for you," Garcia said softly.
"Th-Thank you for s-saying that, I-I need to ask you s-something and I-I want you t-to be h-honest on me. I-If I develop s-schizophrenia will the team still b-be t-there for me? I won't b-blame you i-if you all l-left me then but I just n-needed to ask."
"Reid, we will always take care of you. We will always make sure that you are safe, we would stay with you. We would make sure that you were never alone again," Garcia said honestly. Reid looked into her eyes and knew that she telling him the truth.
"T-Thank you," Reid smiled sadly. He was happy that Garcia would stay with him if he ever became like his mother but part of him knew it was wrong to ask her if she would stay. He didn't want the team to sacrifice their lives for him, he didn't want to hinder them moving on in their lives.
Garcia grabbed another pink cupcake and put it in front of Reid.
"Can you eat another one for me? You have no idea how much joy I get from seeing you eat," Garcia smiled at him.
"C-Can I have a b-blue icing one?" Reid smirked back at her slightly. Garcia chuckled gently before she went to the box of cupcakes and pulled out a blue one. She handed it to Reid and watched as he began to lick the icing off the top.
Rossi - a few hours later
Rossi walked into Reid's room with a bag full of books for Reid. He did not expect to see what he saw when he walked into the room. Garcia was asleep in the chair with a blanket snuggled around her while Reid was asleep with a small teddy bear by his side. It was obvious that Garcia had paid a visit to the gift shop while he had been gone. Rossi was about to close the door when a voice spoke up. A voice that Rossi instantly knew was Reid's.
"You can c-come in," Reid said gently, he looked to Garcia and was happy that she was in a deep sleep. Rossi smiled before he went to the other side of the bed, he sat on the edge and placed the books on the bed. He saw Reid's face light up as he pulled out a few of the books.
"I've missed r-reading m-my books," Reid said as he brushed his hand over the books.
"I thought that you would want to read so I brought these along. How are you feeling Reid?" Rossi asked.
"I feel o-okay, s-still go-going to need s-some time."
"You take all the time you need," Rossi told him.
Please review and remember I will updating twice a day all this week
