Chapter 21 : JJ and Morgan

JJ had heard earlier two nurses discussing Morgan's condition. They didn't name him but when she asked about him Garcia answer gave it away. She knew it was Morgan. She had waited for Garcia to fall asleep for hours eventually she had left and JJ wasted no time in slipping out. She sneaked down to Morgan's room and slipped under the covers beside him. She felt at ease for the first time since they left the black room.

"Morgan, I'm here so you better wake your lazy ass up. You can't leave me all alone here. You just can't. I got the all clear, no diseases or pregnancies. That is good right?"

She put his arm around her and she laid her head on his chest.

"Morgan, Morgan. My dear boy. I never thought I'd see you so soon."

"Morgan you just have to wake up. I can't do this by myself. I can't lose you without saying sorry. Please, Please wake up."

"Morgan what are you doing? You shouldn't be here. You need to do a few more things before we meet up. Stop drifting in numbness. You need to face the pain on more time."

"Dad?"

"Oh boy am I glad to see you even though it breaks my heart."

"I want to see your eyes again. Just like when you flew down the stairs. Your the only person I know that is both a clown and a warrior and has both shining through his eyes."

"Dad Where am I? Am I dead?"

"No dear boy as i said you have a few things to do first. Such as look after the beautiful blonde lying beside you. She is hurting and if she doesn't talk to you the hurt will crush her."

"Who? JJ? Nah she is strong. She is what made me get through the last few weeks she doesn't need me."

"Then why did she sneak out of her room to visit you? How come she hasn't closed her eyes once since she reached the hospital until she laid beside you? But we will get to her. I also have to warn you need to let your team in. Otherwise it will eat at them never knowing how much they meant to you. Because they love you. You mean so much to them."

"Please wake up" She snuggled closer to him and drifted to sleep.

"Dad what do you mean. They know i love them. I know they love me. It doesn't have to be said to be real"

"No but it has to be said to be comforting"

"Dad I missed you growing up. I wish you hadn't died."

"I know I missed watching you grow up. I wish I had been there to protect you. But I'm so proud of who you are and I'm so proud to see what kind man you turned out to be. The way you handled your childhood. I never dreamed you would have to endure something like that form someone i trusted someone you trusted but look at you. You grew up strong and kind. I couldn't have asked for a better son"

"Dad I love you. I only ever wanted to make you proud."

"You made your mother and myself prouder than ever imagined. You have to go back now. We will have our time to catch up. But not yet"

"Dad will it be soon"

"Remember what I said make sure they know where they stood with you. Especially JJ. She needs you so much at the moment."

"Dad I cant see you anymore. Dad? Dad?"

Morgan's eyes flew open and he inhaled deeply. What just happened? It took him a minute for the conversation to come back to him. He looked down and saw JJ lying on his chest. He smiled. She looked so calm. He decided to let her rest. He stroked her hair gently and prayed for her. He hated to think of the pain being carried around in her heart. He just wish he could take it all from her. But he knew he could take some.

JJ stirred a little while later to see Morgan's eyes staring down on her softly.

"Your awake!"

"So are you" Morgan replied with a small smile. JJ gave him and small squeeze and Morgan shifted into a more comfortable position with JJ looking at him face on. They were now sharing bed more equally. JJ suddenly said

"I should go get a nurse"

"No don't worry them sweet thing. Just stay with me."

"Ok Morgan I'm sorry. I'm so sorry for everything."

"Shush don't be sorry you did nothing wrong."

Morgan then got all serious and made JJ look in his eyes

"Seriously girl this is not your fault I don't blame you. Do not blame yourself please tell me you know this is not your fault."

JJ just looked away but Morgan gave her a gentle shake and waited till she looked back

"Please tell me JJ. It's important I know you know that I don't blame you. I don't regret it either JJ. I don't regret going to your house that night. I wouldn't go back and decide differently unless I could stop both of us going there."

JJ started to cry softly "Thank you Morgan. I don't know how I would have made it this far with out you. I don't know how I am going to survive this but I know I will as long as I have you"

"Ah girl you know you survived on your own strength and smarts. I had very little to do with that. I am fully confident you are strong enough to recover from this and I know you don't know it yet but you will find out you don't need me."

JJ looked at him "I do need you. Not just for this I have always needed you. Morgan I've been on this team awhile and I love all the members I do but your the one I need. Your the one I go to for advice and comfort. Your my friend on my team. You don't laugh at me for liking fairytales and even tell me my own fairytale."

"JJ I'm the same. I hope you know how much I'm honoured and blessed to work with you. Not everyone gets to works with their best friend. I never did finish it, the fairytale that is" Morgan said

"I would like to know how it ends"

"Ok get comfortable." Morgan whispered the end of the fairytale to her and by the time he was finished she had fallen asleep. Morgan chuckled quietly to himself and reached over to the table beside him he grabbed a pen and pad on it and wrote down some things. He then himself fell asleep.

JJ wakes up much later on to alarms. "Not yet, ten more minutes" she murmurs to herself as she reaches over to hit the snooze button on her alarm. After flailing her arm for a few minutes with no contact with the alarm she opens her eyes to find nurses and doctors spilling all around shouting things and doing stuff that JJ couldn't follow. Then one of the nurses pulls JJ off the bed and she is pushed into a corner. It was then when she looked onto the bed from the corner did it dawn on her. It was no alarm clock.

Ok just in case it wasn't clear all italics was morgan and his dad talking in his dream or what ever you call it.
