Last Chapter:
"Hi, what can I get you guys to drink?" Helena said.
Reese looked up from his chair wondering how long they could ignore each other now.
Now:
Gideon, Elle, Hotchner, and JJ had ordered their drinks. Now it was Reese's turn.
"Actually I'll just have a water." Said Reese
Helena looked away, then mumbled a 'sure'. The rest of the team just looked at him wondering what was up with him, but didn't say a word until after Helena had handed them their drinks.
"Hey, are you ok?" asked Elle
"Ya I'm good, just a lot on my mind" said Reese
"So, you really going to stay in New Gotham huh?" asked Hotchner
"Ya, I think I need to return home."
"Well if you ever want to return you know where to reach us." Said Gideon "and if we come to Gotham you're help will be needed."
"Ya, thanks."
After they finished their drinks the team decided to head on out. Reese looked over at Helena, who was in the middle of waiting someone else. He thought about the fact that she had moved on with someone else. He knew he shouldn't have been that surprised about it, not with who she was. He just thought coming back here might have meant he could forget everything that had happened and they could have another chance, but he was wrong.
He got up and headed toward the door. He stopped right before he did when he heard his name. He turned and then saw who it was.
"Oh my God, Reese you're back." Said Dinah " the teams not the same without you"
"Hey Dinah. How have you been?"
"Don't you mean how's Helena been?" Dinah said as she smiled slightly.
"Ya well it looks like she's doing just fine to me"
"You guy's haven't spoken yet? And why are you the one acting jealous, you're the one who walked out on her." Said Dinah accusingly.
"Ya, because she pushed me away. If she trusted me like she said she did, she wouldn't have, no matter what was wrong."
"You don't think she knows she made that mistake? She sat around the clocktower for weeks not doing anything, wondering if you'd be back"
"You know that's not really my problem anymore is it, nor does it matter who made what mistake now. So why don't we just leave it at that."
"Ya, fine"
"So, who is he anyway?"
"Names Cole Andrews, he's a lawyer, imagine that huh? Been together for 3 months.
"And you don't like him?"
"I don't know, sometimes I just don't trust him all that much. But I trust her so I guess it doesn't matter. It just seems like he's keeping some massive secret and not the kind that me and her are keeping.
"So he doesn't no who you guys really are?"
"Nah, she's hell bent on keeping the relationship normal for now, whatever that means"
"Ya, well I'm beat, been a long night. Tell Barbara that I'm back and I'll be of assistance whenever you guys need me."
"Ya sure, see you around"
He still loves her. Great, this could get kind of complicated now.
Dinah continued to walk to the bar, and Reese walked out the door.
