" The only people worthy to be in you life
are the one's that help you through the
hard times and laugh with you
after the hard times pass."
" I think I have to go now. " Reid said. They have great evening, and it was late.
" Yeah. Me too. " they all agreed.
" Guys, thank you, this meant a lot to us. " Hotch thanked them when they were at the door.
" Of course. And Hotch. Just tell us if you two need something. And .. just take care of her. she's gonna need you now more than ever . " Morgan said.
" And , don't worry. You need rest too. No too much stress. " Reid said.
" Yeah, that for sure. " Hotch smiled. He knew that it was impossible to do. Of course he were worried, of course he were stressed. After what happened, anyone would be.
" Hotch, they mean that. " Prentiss emphasize.
" I know. " Hotch ignored it.
" But hey, we have to go now. So see you later. " Rossi said and they left.
Hotch closed the door , and heard this noise what came from kitchen. It sounded like broken plates and glasses.
Hotch ran towards the voice and saw JJ on kitchen. He also saw four broken plates and two broken glasses on the floor.
JJ felt how tears flowed down her cheek.
" You are not here. You're in jail. " JJ slurred.
Lucas laughed. That laugh were so awful that it made chills to her.
" Oh, no Jennifer. This is the best torture I've ever invented. This isn't about you going crazy. Everything else is. " Lucas laughed.
Jennifer went pale. She felt really dizzy.
" What do you mean? " she were afraid to ask it , but she had to.
" I mean that , I poisoned you, so you're hallucinating. You are still in there with me, and Hotch , well, he's dead. Been for days. You're just seeing all this , but none of it's true , but me. " Lucas said to JJ and more tear flowed down on her cheek.
" You're saying that.. " JJ's voice broke.
" Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. Hotch is rotting on the room next door.
" How.. How did Aaron .. " JJ started.
" How did he died? " Lucas complete her sentence. " I stabbed him. Few times. "
" When? "
" Few days ago… No wait, what day is it today? " Lucas though a few seconds. " Today it's Friday right? Then I stabbed him six days ago. "
JJ started crying.
" You want to see him? I didn't move him at all, just for you. " Lucas asked and walked to living room and from there to so called bedroom. JJ weren't sure anymore was it her bedroom or rom from that old office building.
She didn't know for sure anything anymore. Nothing made sense anymore. Nothing meant anything to her anymore if he were dead. She just couldn't handle that.
When Lucas opened the door , she noticed one thing. It wasn't her bedroom. It was that same room where Lucas tortured them, the same room where they hang on those ropes. The same room where she woke up on Hotch's arms wrapped to his jacket and feeling his heat next to her body, after she almost froze to death.
She save same ropes hang on the roof , same electric machine. But she almost saw this one thing , and everything else disappeared from that room , because it didn't matter to her anymore.
She saw Hotch lying down on bloody floor. He didn't move, and he were too pale. She ran to him and kneel next to him.
He weren't breathing, she didn't find the pulse.
" Hotch! " JJ gasped. " No, don't you dare do this to me. Please. " She cried.
He felt cold.
He were dead.
