Reid sat on the jet playing cards with Morgan as the team made their way back, the case was over and whatever was left could be handled Jacksonville PD. But that wasn't what was worrying him, it was Kit. This whole thing with Kessler was obviously getting to her, which was naturally seeing as a man had just killed himself in front of her. "Pretty boy, it's your turn…" Morgan began.
"Oh sorry." Reid quietly replied as she picked up a card and wearily glanced at it before putting down and his eyes diverted back to where Kit was sitting with Rossi or rather sleeping with her head against his shoulder.
"Okay so what is? What's got the boy genius so worried that he can't even beat me at cards?" Morgan asked as he put down his cards and when Reid didn't reply he looked in the direction of Reid line of sight and figured it all out. "You worried about Kit. Don't worry about it pretty boy, Rossi's taking care of her and you know how close those two are."
Reid slowly nodded, he knew that Kit and Rossi were extremely close and he was practically family to her considering she had known him most of his life. Him along with her stepfather was the reason that she joined the FBI, Kit also had the honour of being one of the few people to merit an invite to Rossi's mansion and he knew that the two of them had dinner together every so often. "I know but she's our friend… what exactly happened in there?"
"She did the best with what she had, I honestly thought that Kit was going to get Kessler to give up and it looked like it for a brief moment too. We all thought that their past connection would be able to coax Kessler into giving up but he realized that it was the end for him. The idea of losing his kids was too much for him, Kit tried to convince him but he was too far gone for him to be saved…" Morgan explained.
"Are you worried about her?" Reid asked.
"Kit just watched someone she knew kill themselves in front of her so yeah I am a bit worried but she'll be okay." Morgan stated.
"I guess your right then." Reid said nodding in agreement as that's all he could really say, him and Kit were keeping their relationship a secret from the rest of the team due to the bureau's rules of dating other bureau employee's. So he could only show much concern for his girlfriend in public, if they both wanted to keep their jobs. But he was really worried about Kit, she had barely said more than ten words since they left the crime scene apart form when Rossi had spoken to her. She had just through the whole traumatic incident of her brother's attack and now this. It just seemed like she couldn't catch a break.
"I am Reid." Morgan assured him.
Reid still wasn't convinced but he said nothing else on the matter, when the team got back to Quantico Kit was pulled into some kind of debriefing with Hotch and Rossi in Hotch's office and once it was over she grabbed her stuff and left. After he had left work Reid had tried calling her several times but every time it went to voicemail and the idea of going to her place crossed his mind. But the most logical thing was to give her space and she'd come as soon as she was ready. And apparently that was sooner than he expected as an hour after he got home, Kit arrived at his apartment. "Hey…"
"Hi." Kit wearily replied as she put her bag down the floor and looked around the room and Reid could tell by the fact that she was fiddling with her fingers that she felt very uncomfortable.
"I tried calling you." He slowly stated.
"I know."
"I was going to stop by your place–"
"I wasn't there, I was at my dad's… I promised him I'd stop by when I was back in town and I ended up staying longer than I expected." Kit began as she walked around the apartment and took of her jumper before she made her way back over to Reid and took him off guard when she kissed him.
"Kit?" Reid questioned but Kit didn't respond instead she undid his watch and put it on his coffee table before coming back and undoing his cardigan and tie. There was a brief moment of pause where she stopped and looked at him before continuing where she left off, kissing him slowly and carefully as she started to undo his shirt buttons one by one. Reid wasn't sure what to make of all this but he knew where this was heading and it wasn't like he was afraid as Kit was his girlfriend and they had been sexually intimate with each other plenty of time, it was just that he was worried about her frame of mind. "Katherine, we shouldn't be doing this we really should really talk about today…"
"I get it, okay? I watched a man that I knew twelve years ago kill himself in front of me today! I know that he killed himself Spencer, I was there in the room when he put the gun to his temple and blew off his head." Kit snapped and Reid had take a step back, he knew everything wasn't fine and it was all coming out now despite Kit's best efforts to bottle it up. "I'm sorry Spencer. I should have snapped like that. I know that your worried and you think we should talk about it and yeah we probably should but that's all I've done since Robert Kessler killed himself. I've spoken to Rossi, both Rossi and Hotch then my dad, I've talked to them all about today and I know that I'm going to be sent to the bureau shrink because it's procedure and I will have to talk about it again and again. But I just don't want to talk about it. Tonight, I just want to be with my boyfriend."
Reid felt his cheeks become increasingly warmer and he took a rather large gulp before he took a couple of steps forward and carefully took Kit's hand, he wasn't sure whether this was the most appropriate thing to be doing but he'd do anything to make Kit feel better. "Okay."
