It was dark, the basement was freezing cold. I was all alone; Dan came down and crept towards me. He started beating me with force and then I woke up, sweat and tears pouring down my face. I was shaking all over. I must have been being loud because a minute later the doctor rushed in.

"Is everything alright?" She asked.

"J-just a bad dream." I replied.

That was an understatement, it was more than a bad dream, it was a nightmare.

"Is there anything you need?" The doctor asked.

I thought for a moment.

"Actually is it ok if I have someone come keep me some company?" I asked. "Please, I need this."

She sighed and tried to hide a yawn, it was late.

"I guess." She said. "Only 1 person and if they are too loud they have to leave."

"Ok, thank you." I said.

As soon as the doctor left the room the tears started up again. I got my cell out and called JJ; I knew she would be the quietest.

"Hello…" JJ said.

"JJ, it'd R-Reid." I said still crying.

"What's wrong Spence?" She asked.

"I-I-I had a b-bad dream."

I was crying pretty hard and I must have sounded terrible on her end of the conversation.

"I'm sorry; I'll be there right away." JJ said.

"Th-thanks." I replied.

We hung up and I curled up into a ball. I was still crying and shivering, too afraid to sleep. I felt so alone. I wished JJ would hurry up. My back was sore and I couldn't move my ankle; the pain was unbearable. About 20 minutes later JJ walked through the door. I was still shaking, the tears streaming down my face. She came in and sat down next to me. She had a worried look in her eyes.

"Oh Spencer, it's going to be all right." She assured me pulling me into a hug.

"I-is it?" I asked.

I cried into her shoulder, I wanted it all to end.

"Of course it is." She said. She paused and then said, "Are you feeling alright? You look pale."

She reached over and placed her hand on my head. I still felt uncomfortable when people touched me even though I knew I could trust her.

"Reid, your burning up." She said.

I was freezing cold yet hot at the same time. I couldn't stop shivering, my teeth chattering. JJ left the room and came back a couple minutes later with the doctor.

"Alright Spencer I'm going to give you some Tylenol to bring down the fever." The doctor said.

I said it was ok and took the medicine hoping it would make me feel better soon. I felt drowsy but I was too afraid to fall asleep. I didn't want the nightmares to come back. JJ kept looking at me with her motherly eyes. I could tell she felt bad for me. I didn't want pity; it made me feel like a child.

"You look worn out." JJ said. "Do you want me to leave so you can get some sleep?" She asked.

I started panicking; I didn't want to be left alone, to fall asleep to my nightmares.

"N-n-no." I said. "D-don't l-l-leave m-me."

I was sobbing, afraid that she would leave.

"Shh, Spencer, don't worry." She said. "I won't leave you."

She hugged me and I was so relieved that she wasn't going to leave me alone. I was so tired and sick; JJ assured me that it would be ok, so I fell asleep.

A/N: Ok so after this, there is one more chapter and a prologue. poor reid; pain, nightmares, and now he is sick... I dont know if he can handle much more.
