This was the first time Spencer Reid hated his job. They still hadn't caught the guy and he had to be home for Ashley's proper ultra scan. But at this rate they weren't going anywhere. The guy had been tipped off and gone into hiding, Garcia was working her magic but that could take a while. Reid was starting to lose focus. He misses Ashley and just wanted to get home. His hotel room bed felt so empty wit out Ashley there taken up most of the bed. (Reid had gotten used to hang off the edge.) The room smelt to plain without Ashley's body butter scent. He missed her.
-"Garcia please let me call them."
"Sorry sweet pea but last I heard they were going into get the guy. You don't want to risk that right?"
"Fine, I'm going to go home and sleep G. Call me when they get the bad guy."
"You got it. Now go the stress isn't good. For Mr Bump."
Ashley left the office and headed home. Well to Reid's she still had her apartment but so much of her stuff was here. She just needed Reid to officially ask her. The flat was so empty without Spencer making a mess everywhere. His books where all neatly stacked away. And for once coffee mugs didn't litter the table. She hated it, not seeing him lying there with a book (usually baby advice books at the moment.) She felt scared without his arm laying over her while she slept. She wanted him to come home, or for her to be there with him. Switching on the TV she found a TV show she could put up with she went to the kitchen and made a hot chocolate. Usually she would have made decaf coffee but Spencer refused to let her drink coffee.
-Derek ran round the back of the house, Reid and JJ closely following. He kicked open the door with such force it came straight of the hinges. Running through the room's he found the guy first he was holding the latest women hostage a knife to her throat. Reid spoke up.
"Sir, you don't want to do this. We can make a deal."
"You don't understand. There is no going back now; she was one of them that took my daughter away from me. She killed him."
"Sir, your daughter is fine she is in care. She is alive and you can see her if you drop the knife."
The unsub lowered his knife slightly and Reid took a step forward at this move the unsub pointed the knife at him.
"What do you know? You're just a cop; you don't know what I am going through. You just want me to stop."
Reid careful took one more step forward. Ignoring Morgan's warnings.
"I trust you; I know it had been hard. But you'll do the right thing to help your daughter."
The unsub lowered the knife and Morgan ran forward to get the girl. But his sudden movement caused the unsub to react. He went to stab Morgan in the arm with the knife. Reid quickly took a step forward and grabbed the man's arm. Twisting him down to the floor, as he did so the knife caught his arm leaving a deep gash. Reid felt tears stinging his eye but continued till he had the man in handcuffs.
Once that was done he allowed himself to look at his arm. Turning towards JJ he let out a sigh.
"They're not going to let me go for tomorrow are they."
"For some reason I get that feeling."
-"Garcia, tell me what happened!"
"Well Reid got the guy then Morgan moved and the unsub tried to stab Morgan so Reid reacted and well know he has a gash down his arm and needed 8 stitches."
"Take me out there. I have to see him."
"They'll let him out but he won't be there tomorrow."
"The ultra scan I forgot. Damn."
"Morgan said Reid wanted you to go anyway."
"I can't not without him. When is he going to be flown back?"
"Tomorrow morning. They aren't keeping him in overnight but it is a long flight back."
"Okay thanks Garcia. It means a lot that you're looking out for me."
"No problem Sweetie now sleep. Go for your scan and he'll be back before you know it I promise."
-Reid sat on the jet flying back. A bandage on his arm and a book in his hand. But he couldn't concentrate. Looking at the time he knows Ashley would be at the hospital now. He wished he could be there to. It sucked. Hotch looked up from the seat opposite.
"Reid you know she doesn't blame you right. You're lucky she was one of us and knows the job."
"I'd never thought about having a kid, I always was scared I would turn out like my dad or my child would end up like my mum. Then there is my job and I knew it would be next to impossible. But then it happened and all those fears went away. I'm going to be a dad Hotch but what if I turn out like my dad."
"Reid, you're not going to. You are already trying to prevent it and that's why you're not like him."
Reid smiled and gained one of Hotch's rare smiles in return.
-Ashley drove back from the hospital. When she pulled up to Reid's apartment she saw his car parked out front. With a smile she went as fast as she could up to the apartment. Flinging open the door she found Reid cooking in the kitchen. He turned around and she ran into his arms.
"Don't you ever do that again! I was terrified!"
"Hey sweetie nice to see you too! I've missed you way too much."
Ashley smiled and standing on tip toes leaned in to Spencer. He met her half way and they began to kiss. Ashley suddenly stopped and rummaged around in her pocket. She pulled out a picture.
"Look its 3D that's what are little guy looks like."
"She is beautiful just like her mum."
"No he is amazing just like his dad. Now let me see the war wounds."
Spencer rolled up his sleeve and watched as she winced. Remembering how lonely he had felt while away Reid suddenly realised what he had to do.
"Ashley move in with me."
The surprise flooded Seaver's eyes, followed with a big smile.
"Yes, Yes a million times yes."
Reid smiled.
"Wow this was an eventful 12th week."
