I'm so sorry for not updating sooner, it had been a bit hectic around here. Christmas preparations combined with me being accident prone have delayed me.
Running into a glass door was not what I intended to do the other day but I still managed it.
I hope you enjoy this chapter, I will probably be updating this next Tuesday as I'm with family for the next few days.
All mistakes are my own.
Enjoy and reviews are great.
Merry Christmas!
"Three weeks? What did that injection do to me?" Reid asked as he tried to sit up from the dead, he tried before a familiar wave of weakness came through him. He slumped down in the bed and let out a fustrated sigh.
"Easy Reid. The doctor couldn't explain why you slipped into a coma. The only strange thing about your coma was that when they did a scan it showed a higher rate of brain function. The scan was telling us that you should have been awake and concious but you stayed in a coma. Reid, did Adrian tell you why he injected you?" Hotch explained to Reid, he saw how pale Reid looked and didn't like it.
Reid looked confused before his eyes flickered with recognition.
"He didn't say much at all at first but back at the scene he put his hand on my forehead. He said he needed more information. It hurt so much when he touched my forehead, it was like someone was driving a nail through my brain. It was strange. He knew stuff that he shouldn't have known. He knew about my IQ and that my mum was schizophrenic. He seemed estatic at the fact I was a genius. He pulled out the needle and injected me with something ice cold. I couldn't stop him, I couldn't do anything" Reid told them, his voice became slightly panicked as he remembered being unable to move.
"Reid, it's alright. Calm down, we will find out what he did to you and we're going to catch this is going to happen to you" Emily said as she held his hand, he felt slightly better when he felt her thumb rubbing his hand. It was sensation he could feel and it was calm and nice.
"Are you alright?" Reid said as he looked at the small bruise forming on Emily cheek, Reid knew that the unsub had hit her pretty hard.
"I'm fine Reid, I just wish I had been able to pull my gun out on Adrian. I'm sorry about letting him take you, I didn't
react quick enough" she said before giving a weak and guilt laced smile.
"Emily please don't feel guilty. I'm just happy your alright. Thank you for talking me when I was couldn't move. It helped me calm down" Reid thanked before tightening his grip slightly on her hand. Reid felt safe with Emily and he always had felt safe with her. He knew she was the only one that would listen to his problems and not tell anyone. He trusted the others but over the years he had come to see her as his best friend.
He had taken out his rage on her when he was struggling with his addiction because she was the only one to confront him about his behaviour. He loved the fact that she wasn't afraid to confront him.
"We'll make sure this guy gets caught" Hotch said quietly, he saw how calming Emily was to Reid. He knew that they had their own connection and while it had taken a hit when he had faked Emily's death, it was staying strong now.
Reid coughed as he felt a dry tickle irritate his throat, he looked up moments later to see Hotch's with a cup of water in his hand. Reid reached for the cup and felt Hotch's finger's brush against his hand.
Reid yelped as he withdrew his hand from the cup, the cup fell to the floor causing a small bang to fill the room. Reid
gripped the sides of his head and whimpered as felt his mind burn and explode.
"Reid! Reid!" Emily shouted as she tried to grab his hands.
Reid saw a flash and found images running in front of his eyes. Reid closed his eyes and found himself no longer in the hospital but walking with a gun in his hand. He felt scared and his heart was burning with grief, he had no control over where he was going. Reid was seeing through another person's eyes, he felt like a stranger. Reid's vision turned a corner, he looked down and saw Haley's bloody body. Reid felt the grief inside him grow before it became mixed with pure anger. His view changed and he caught a glimpse of someone in the mirror as he passed it. He knew at that moment what was happening.
Reid whimpered again as he saw a flash of white light, he opened his eyes and saw the hospital room. Two hands were trying to help him. He felt sobs run through his body as fear, anger and sorrow struck him.
"Reid, what's wrong?" Hotch said loudly as he gripped Reid's face in his hands in order to get him to say something.
"I'm so so so sorry, I saw her" Reid sobbed as he could control the foreign emotions inside him.
"Who?" Hotch asked confused.
"Haley" Reid whispered before he felt himself being pulled back into the darkness.
Reid closed his eyes knowing that he was falling unconcious. He swore Emily's voice echoed in his head before he succumbed to the darkness but he didn't understand what she meant.
'You are too important to me to die.'
Please review and hope you enjoyed.
