I want to say thank you to all my lovely fans and they're astounding reviews, they make me very happy! It's been fun but sadly this is the last chapter of this particular story :( So reviews for my final chapter would be greatly appreciated! Again thank you all so very much! I love you! Xoxoxo
After walking down the deserted road for about an hour they came to a small town called Green Pond. Emily was so happy she almost cried. She looked over and smiled at Reid who in turn smiled back.
"I told you I would get us back Emily."
"I never doubted you for a second Reid."
"Hmm that's weird I still have no cell signal. You?"
"Well my phone seems to be dead, so that would be a no." She told him. "Look there's a diner over there, they should have a phone."
As they walked towards the diner they realized how small of a town they were in when they only seen about four people and a couple of cars pass by them.
"I'd like to live in a town in the middle of nowhere like this someday. Where everybody knows each other and you don't have to worry about murder and all of the other terrible things we deal with." Emily said.
"Yeah if only there was a place like that. Everywhere is vulnerable to crime these days it's a shame. But of course if there wasn't crime we would be out of a job."
"Would that be such a bad thing?" She said.
Reid looked at her questionably wondering if this was her way of saying she wanted to leave the BAU. But that couldn't be possible, Garcia wouldn't allow it and neither would JJ. They were a family and families stick together. Although that had not been true in Reid's case the BAU was his family now and he didn't want that to change. They walked into the diner and every single person, which was only about three people, stared at them.
"Awkward…" Emily whispered to him.
They walked over to a booth and sat down before they drew anymore attention to themselves. A young girl walked over and smiled at them after giving them menus.
"Can I get ya'll something to drink?" She asked.
"I'll have water please."
"Make that two." Reid said. "Do you have a phone we can use by any chance?"
"There is a pay phone out back, it's a quarter."
"Thank you." Reid said as the waitress walked away. "I'll go call Hotch and tell him what happened. Well half of what happened."
He winked at her as he got up and walked towards the door. Emily started scanning the menu after realizing how hungry she actually was. The waitress brought the drinks and said she would come back when Reid came back in. She waited quietly until she heard someone behind her clear their throat.
"Afternoon, ma'am." A tall and very handsome man said from beside her. "Haven't seen you around here before. I'd remember that pretty face."
"Oh yeah, well good thing I'm not just a pretty face huh?" Emily flashed her badge with a little grin and hoped he would leave after that.
"Oh I love a woman with a badge. I got one too." The man pulled out a badge and revealed he was the sheriff of Green Pond. "Sheriff LeBeau ma'am. Nice to make your acquaintance."
"Agent Prentiss. Sorry for being so sarcastic, it's been a pretty rough day."
"Anything I can help you with?" he asked her.
Emily seen Reid walking back in and making his way back to their table and she smiled lovingly. "Nope. Thank you but I think we have everything under control." She said happily. Reid slid into the booth and nodded towards the sheriff.
"Well if there is anything I can do for you two, just let me know." With that the sheriff tipped his hat and walked out the door.
"Hotch said they found the SUV and they've been looking for us. They're about twenty minutes out. What was that about?" Reid asked.
"Oh you know, he started hitting on me, I flashed my badge, he flashed his, and then he left." She said laughing. She could see unmistakable jealousy in Reid's face and it made her smile.
"I find it very wrong for local law enforcement to come on to an FBI agent." Reid said with a hint of anger in his voice.
"To be fair he didn't know I was FBI and I don't really look like an agent right now."
"Oh so now you're defending him! Is this how it's going to be from now on Emily? Just tell me!"
Emily was stunned that Reid was really yelling at her over this. She had sent him away, what more could Reid have asked for? After she had practically thrown her heart into his hands and him giving it back she should be the angry one. Reid was still angry and after trying his best to control it he couldn't. He didn't even want to think about Emily being with another man. It made him sick to his stomach.
"What do you want me to say Reid! Tell me and I will say it!" Emily yelled.
Both of them were so heated and lost in their own thoughts that they hadn't realized everyone in the diner was listening to their fight at this point.
"I gave you my whole heart and you gave it back! I'm supposed to be the angry one not you!" Emily now had tears in her eyes and Reid felt like dirt.
"Emily I…I didn't…"
"Save it Reid. You were the one I counted on to never hurt me, and now here I am again with a broken heart and a coward who can't even see what is right in front of him." Emily wiped away a few stray tears before getting up out of the booth and walking outside to wait for their ride. Reid stayed put, knowing he couldn't mend what he had just broken so quickly. He knew to give her space until he could somehow think of a way to make it up to her. And he would try doing that very thing until he breathed his last breath.
Fin. Now before everyone freaks out and wants to kill me (eeeek angry mob lol) I would NEVER leave Emily and Reid broken hearted like that! Therefore there shall be a sequel in which I am already working on! Yay *cheers* So please review this and the next story should be up in a couple of days! Xoxoxo
