Cry

Song: Cry

By: Kelley Clarkson

If anyone asks
I'll tell them we both just moved on
When people all stare
I'll pretend that I don't hear them talk
Whenever I see you I'll swallow my pride and bite my tongue
Pretend I'm okay with it all
Act like there's nothing wrong

Reid walked through the corridors of the BAU like a zombie. He didn't look up from the floor, although he knew where he was going. Didn't look up when people asked if he was ok. He didn't even acknowledge when Garcia put her hand on his back. He could feel the stares though. From everyone he past. He didn't care though. The ones that did bother him, were the ones from his friends. He just sat at his desk and tried to work.

"What's wrong with baby genius?" Garcia asked, sitting at JJ's desk.

Derek and him got in a big fight last night. Apparently Spence was getting too much attention from a guy at the bar last night, and Derek thought Spence was hitting on the guy back." JJ said. "He came to my door last night at midnight, hysterical. It took me, Will, and Henry an hour to calm him down enough to tell us what happened." JJ says, heart aching at the memory.

"Why would chocolate Thunder think Reid would cheat on him? Doesn't he know Reid loves him to death?" Garcia says, shooting a glare at Morgan's closed office door.

"He's too stupid." JJ says. "we're gonna have to do something about this."

"Ok, you take Baby genius out to eat, and I'll talk to Chocolate Thunder." Garcia says.

"Ok." JJ says, getting up to walk over to Reid, while Garcia heads up the stairs to Morgan's office.

"Spence, come on, let's get some lunch." JJ says. Reid finally looks up at her with glazed over eyes and nods. She sighs as he gets up slowly to lead him out the door. "My treat ok?" He robotically again as they get in the elevator and the door closes.

Garcia gets into Morgan's office and sees the older agent very focused on his files, but he could not hide the pain in his eyes.

She slams his office door shut to get his attention. His head snaps up. "oh, hey baby girl."

"Don't you dare "hey baby girl" me!" She snaps.

Morgan could have figured out that this was about what happened between him and Reid. "I have a lot of work to do baby girl." He says, going back to his file.

"Oh no! you are not turning me away! Have you seen the damage you've done to that poor boy? He can barely stand, we have to poke him to even get him to look at us, and he won't say a word! He just nods!" Garcia says, enraged by Morgan's carelessness.

"In case you haven't noticed, he was hitting on another guy!" Morgan shouts.

"No! he was getting uncomfortable and we were trying to get the guy away from him!" Garcia says.

"Then why was he not moving away from the guy if he was so uncomfortable?" Morgan's shouts get lower, thinking going back to what happened at the bar. 'come to think of it, the girls were around him.' Morgan thought.

"He was stunned! The guy used sexual talk to get him to come with him! You know how uncomfortable that makes him!" Garcia shouts again.

Now Morgan felt stupid. "W-Why didn't he tell me this?"

"Were you yelling at him?" Garcia asked him like he was stupid.

"Damnit!" Morgan says, slamming his head down on the desk.

"Feel pretty stupid don't you?" Garcia asks.

"Where is he?" Morgan asks.

"With JJ getting lunch. They'll be back in an hour. You have until then to come up with a way to fix this." Garcia says, walking out of his office.

Is it over yet
Can I open my eyes
Is this as hard as it gets
Is this what it feels like to really cry
Cry

Reid was sitting in the passenger's seat of JJ's car, looking down at his hands that were clasped in his lap. He looked so miserable that JJ just wanted to hold him. She pulled into the parking lot of their favorite diner. As soon as she turned of the ignition, she heard the quiet sob escape from Reid's lips. "Oh Spence." She says, climbing out of her door, and walking around the car to open the passenger side door to hug her friend, who was more like her little brother.

She could feel the heavy sobs rack his lithe body, and she wanted nothing more than to kill Morgan. "I want this all to be a dream. I want to wake up." Reid says, sobs picking up.

"I know Spence. I know." She says, running her hands through his long, silky hair. It was a few minutes before he calmed down enough for her to pull out a tissue and wipe his tears away. "Why don't we forget about Morgan for right now, and go get some food, ok?" She says softly and lovingly. He nods, and she helps him out of the car and into the diner.

If anyone asks
I'll tell them we just grew apart
What do I care if they believe me or not
Whenever I feel your memory is breaking my heart
I'll pretend I'm okay with it all
Act like there's nothing wrong

I'm talking in circles
I'm lying, they know it
Why won't this just all go away

It was an hour later, and Morgan watched restlessly as he saw JJ and his sluggish lover walk into the Bullpen. First thing he noticed was that the bags under Reid's eyes were darker, and his beautiful hazel orbs were glazed over and bloodshot. No doubt he had been crying a lot. Morgan took a deep calming breath. He hated being the reason for the tears in those eyes that he loved so much. He took out his cell phone and texted JJ.

JJ sat at her desk, looking away from her friend when she felt her phone vibrate. When she lifted it up to look at who it was from, she scowled. Nevertheless, she opened the text to see what he wanted. 'JJ. Please. I know you're mad at me, but I really need to talk to Pretty Boy."

She didn't want Reid to go talk to him after what he did, but she couldn't help but notice the urgency and guilt that text held. So she got up and walked over to Reid. "Hey Spence, Morgan wants to speak to you hun."

"I don't want to talk to him JJ." Reid says sadly.

"I know, but he sounded guilty in the text he just sent me. He may want to reconcile this with you." JJ says.

"JJ…" Reid begged, but he looked in her eyes.

"Please Spence." She begged him back sweetly.

Reid nodded, and got up. He would do this for her. He didn't want to deal with the fact that Morgan could just want to break this off for good. He couldn't handle it. He could feel the tears stinging his eyes again. Despite the tears, he bravely avoided looking at the people looking at him with concerned stares. Then he got to Morgan's office and walked in, stare trained on the floor, refusing to let the tears fall. He was strong, he could handle this.

Morgan looked up as Reid walked in. His lover's eyes were trained on the floor, but he could see his eyes were full of tears and he was stubbornly refusing to let them go. "Reid."

Reid flinched, last names were never a good sign.

Morgan noticed the flinch at his last name being said. He understood his mistake and called him something more loving. "Baby Boy, look at me."

"Please Morgan, just say what you need to say and let me move on. Please." Reid begged, tears falling now.

Is it over yet
Can I open my eyes
Is this as hard as it gets
Is this what it feels like to really cry
Cry

As the tears fell, Morgan's gut clenched. He understood how Reid felt. "Baby, I'm not breaking up with you. Garcia told me what happened. I didn't know. You never said anything. But now I realize that was because I just wouldn't give you a chance." Morgan says, voice chocking up as tears start glazing his eyes as the memories of him yelling at Reid came back to him. He could tell Reid was thinking back to it too, and watched as he curled in on himself. Morgan walked over and pulled him close. "Oh baby, I'm so sorry."

Reid grabbed onto the front of Morgan's shirt and sobbed into his chest.

Morgan let his own tears fall now. "I promise baby. I will never, ever treat you like that again." He says, kissing the crown of Reid's head. "We will go home tonight, and I will make you a big dinner, and we will have the greatest make up sex there has ever been. Ok baby?"

Reid says nothing, just nods and burries his red face deeper into Morgan's chest as his sobs begin to disapate. And they stay like that until Morgan decides to tell Hotch that they're leaving early so he can take Reid home.

Hotch didn't argue, and Morgan helps his lover to the elevator.

Morgan knows he isn't perfect, but he knows that he will never hurt Reid over his stupid jealousy ever again. And Reid knows to stick close to the girls in bars from now on.

The End….

(A/N) It was a sad one I know. But I can never leave it sad. It has to have a happy ending for me. So review and tell me what you guys think. And give me song requests. I'm always game.
