Two months later

"You are doing so well Reid," Garcia said as she watched Reid hold onto the bars and walk slowly to his target line. Reid grimaced slightly as he took each step, his legs were still rebuilding but they were getting stronger. They were still weak but Reid was happy with the progress he was making. He wanted to recover faster but he had been warned about pushing his body over the limit that it could take. He knew that if he pushed himself, he might end up making his recovery longer. Reid made it to the target line and was promptly helped back into his wheelchair by two physical therapists. Reid took a few deep breaths to help him regain some of his strength.

Reid rubbed his legs hoping to try and relax the burn that was across his thighs and the back of his legs. Reid was just happy that he was able to do physical therapy, the complication from his second surgery had managed to heal. He had been so happy when the doctor had told him that he could start physical therapy. Garcia and Morgan had been even happier. Reid had to admit that the last two months, while being difficult, had been the best months he had had for a long time. The entire team had been with him over the last two months. He had been staying with Garcia for the last two months. It had felt strange at first but he had found Garcia's home wonderful and warm. Reid had tried to protest staying for so long but Garcia had insisted for him to stay.

He enjoyed the team's company, it helped him emotionally to know that he had support when he needed it. Rossi came with hot, freshly cooked food for Reid and Garcia when the team were not away on a case. JJ would visit and bring Henry with her, Emily would come and watch foreign films with him and talk to him. Hotch had helped him by talking to him, he had even brought Jack to see him. Hotch had also made sure that Reid would keep his job.

Morgan had helped him so much over the last two months. Morgan had travelled with him to Las Vegas so he could spend some time with his mother, the visit had not been an easy one due his mother having an episode and accusing the government of hurting her Spencer. Morgan had calmed him down on the way back. Morgan was always at the house with him and Garcia. Reid smiled slightly as he thought about how overprotective Morgan had been over the last two months.

Garcia jolted him from his thoughts as she came over and gave him a small little hug. "You are doing so much better Reid, you'll be racing Morgan in no time."

Reid smiled back at her before turning towards his physical therapist as she walked over.

"That was great Spencer," she smiled at him before she scribbled on her clipboard.

"I've got some cheering for me at the sideline, it helps," Reid grinned before looking at Garcia.

"You would have a whole cheering squad if the team wasn't away on a case," Garcia said before giving Reid's cheek a small squeeze.

"Support from others helps," the physical therapist smiled. "I'll see you again next week but until then I want to begin to wear supports for your legs. I also want you to try and walk in them."

"What type of supports?" Reid asked.

"They will help reinforce your legs and help your balance. They are designed to be placed in a shoe and then strapped around your leg up to your knee, they have provided great help for other patients. I also have support I want you to place around your thighs to help with your recovery."

"How long will I have to wear them?" Reid questioned.

"At first I want you to wear them for a few hours a day and I want you to try and walk in those few hours. You can increase the use of them as your legs get stronger," the therapist explained. "I must insist that you have someone supervise and help you when you use the supports."

"He'll have someone with him," Garcia assured the woman.

The next day

Reid looked at the supports in front of him, he carefully placed the support into the shoe before he putting the shoe on. He strapped the rest of the support around his leg, he already had the two supports for his thighs placed around them. Reid repeated the process and slipped on the other shoe. The supports felt strange to him but he knew he had to get used to them. Reid bit his lower lip as he thought about standing up in them. Garcia was at the store and he was alone in the apartment. He decided to push his luck.

He grabbed the bed and carefully rose to his feet. He carefully balanced himself as he stood up, he smiled as he realised that he was standing on his own. Reid took a deep breath before taking a step forward. Reid panicked slightly when he began to lose his balance. Reid tried to move his other foot but found it to be a mistake. Reid lost his balance and began to rushing towards the floor, Reid smacked into the floor hard.

"Ow!" Reid groaned as he lifted himself up onto his elbows. Reid rubbed the side of his face where he had hit the floor. Reid looked up suddenly when he the door to the bedroom opened.

"Reid!" Garcia said as she dropped the grocery bag onto the floor and rushed to Reid's side. Garcia helped Reid sit up against the bed, she looked at his legs and realised he had put the supports on.

"I didn't mean to try and walk in them," Reid said with a guilty look on his face.

"Reid, the therapist told you that you need supervision when you are wearing the supports," Garcia admonished.

"I just wanted to see if I could walk in them," Reid explained.

Garcia brought up her hand and flicked Reid in the middle of his forehead with her fingers.

"Ouch, what was that for?"

"I'm going to flick you every time you do something that makes me worry."

"I'm sorry, I'll try not to worry you again."

"Come on, the team is coming around soon," Garcia said.

Please review

The idea for the supports comes from personal experience, a few years ago I had wear supports after my legs were weakened. Great for healing and great when someone accidentally hits you in the leg. Reid will be wearing them for the next few chapters.
