AN Please do not read if you have not seen the finale of season 3!
Disclaimer None are mine. They all belong to CBS I just like to play with them.
Okay well this story seems to have confused a few of you so I will explain a couple little things.
- First of all it was Morgan who got hurt; the pervious chapters were his thoughts at hearing what had happened while in a coma. He heard bits and pieces when people were talking in his room, to him and each other. He was confused and thought it was different people as his mind struggled to understand that it was he who had been wounded.
-Second for those of you who want a chapter for Will in this story he "died" in the JJ chapter.
What if it was me?
I remember closing my eyes to block out the light of the fire. It was so bright I felt like just looking at it would burn. That is what it feels like now the light is so bright. I can hear birds and the sweet sound of laughter somewhere in the distance, I am warm and there doesn't seem to be any pain, just that light.
The light seems to make me want to sleep longer to just pull the covers over my head and wait until later to wake up but then I remember that my family is waiting for me to tell them that it will be okay. They have all told me that for what seems like weeks and now it is my turn to tell them.
Emily is with me. She is reading to me again, more Vonnegut. I can hear her voice. I try to open my eyes so that she will know that I am here listening to her but they just won't open. It is like they are taped shut. I want her to know that I am awake but she just keeps reading to me.
Rossi comes next. He asks her how I am today and I want to tell him that I am awake but she says I am the same. He walks her out while the nurse comes in to change my bandages. It is then that I know how badly I am hurt. It hurts everywhere and she talks to me in a soothing voice telling me she will be done soon. As she goes to leave she takes my hand telling me that I have wonderful friends and I squeeze it unwilling to let her go. She calls out for the doctor and I hear Emily and Rossi run back in the room. They know now I think as I drift back to sleep.
Reid sometimes he just sits. But not today, today he talks endlessly about things that only Reid would talk about. He tells me that I will be in Physical Therapy for an undetermined amount of time and that I am on Morphine right now so if there is any pain I can just ask for more. He tells it is okay to ask for it when it hurts and that he will make sure that I am okay with it. It is then that I understand the meeting he told Hotch about and I want so badly to tell my kid brother that it is okay as he tells me he is so very sorry.
JJ comes. She talks to the doctors and nurses and coordinates my transfer to a DC hospital. She says that my mother will be there staying with family and I realize that the family she is speaking of is my team. She tells me that she knows that I can hear her and that is time to wake up.
Garcia comes in and calls me gorgeous. I want so badly to wake up for her and when I do I can still not seem to figure out how to talk or open my eyes. I want to call her baby girl and make her laugh. I want to wake up for Penelope.
Hotch comes in and my family is all there. He sits for a while and they are all quiet before he starts talking. He tells me that they have had enough. That he is sick of waiting and that I need to wake up now. I can hear Emily, JJ, and Garcia tell him to stop. Still he goes on. "Damn it Morgan that is an order! Wake up now"
"Stop yelling Hotch, man. I'm awake" That was what I am trying to say but it comes out as a groan and I can hear them all stop and gasp but I can also hear Garcia laughing.
It is odd I am awake. I wonder how long I slept. I am awake.
AN Please REVIEW. I am glad that so many of you are reading this but would love it if you would review, good, bad, or boring I just want your opinions. I guess that I will continue this as it will not leave me alone!
