Two Months Later

The thoughts never left him, they still crawled inside of him, still ate away at his soul but he was coping, as the therapist said, as what would be expected. But he felt as though he should be better by now. He thought about Henry more and more often now, he wanted for things to be different but telling Henry would confuse him and Reid honestly looked at him own father, what if he did the same thing? What if he abandoned Henry like his father did to him? No, the best thing he could do was be his godfather and that was like being a father to him. He now spent more and more time with him and he was feeling good about it. Every time Henry smiled it gave him the strength to go through the day, to fight whatever evil was out there and to fight his own demons. Reid had felt abandoned and lost and that the weight of the world was on his shoulders but now he was finally on his way to finding his own paradise, a place where he had finally felt safe. The team were more supportive then he deserved, those things he thought and said, were like knives to his stomach and it had killed him that he even thought it. They were truly there for him, they were his family now. The secrets he had bottled up were out and all he could think about was the looks they would give him, that they would think of him as weak and useless but Hotch was the one who pulled him aside and told him, 'that every struggle every person goes through doesn't make them weaker but gives them the strength to take on larger demons that we will face' and that was the turning point for him. From that moment on, Reid saw the battles differently; saw them as another layer to add to himself. He was stronger than he thought, he was just blind to that fact. He wasn't blind anymore, he saw as clear as day and it made him at points uneasy but at others it made him feel stronger and that was all that truly matter.

JJ and Will went through battles that pushed them harder than ever before, they went through the arguments that nearly broke them and the pain that nearly killed them but when the dust had settled and they could finally see each other clearly for the first in two months, they knew it was going to be alright. They knew that things would never be the same but the only thing that mattered was their feelings towards each other and Henry and that was all they needed, it was what they wanted. They found Reid was coming over nearly every chance he got and at first it was uneasy after what happened at Reid's apartment but it just faded in time. Henry was growing to be happier by the day; he was a thriving young boy who lived in a now happy household. It was happy and that was it.

The team looked at those events because it not only affected Reid but everyone. Everyone was pulled into a dark place and they didn't know whether they would come out but that was the funny thing about this team, they weren't like the other teams because they weren't just co-workers but family. A family that once had shadows but now was resolving everything that made them grow stronger. Their bonds were never as strong as it was now, they all learnt to trust each other and learn from each other better than they thought possible. They learnt that secrets weren't the things that helped but the things that burned each other like fire.

Reid sat alone in his new apartment; he thought it was the best to get away the old memories that were holding him down. He built this place has a safe haven for himself; it made him feel like there was a place that no evil could ever enter. He read books but now took the time to truly look at every word. He was actually starting to go out more often with the team, with his family. He laughed and joked with them and it felt as though he was out of the woods, that he was free of his past that used to weigh him down.

Morgan even got him to go with him anywhere and learn how to pick up ladies, of course, this was more to Morgan's amusement then to teach Reid but Morgan was then shown one night that Reid was learning, as Reid walked out with a Beautiful young brunette with bright sapphire eyes. Morgan, that night, was then cursing himself before shaking his head in amusement as he watched Reid prove him wrong yet again.

Garcia would take Reid to all sorts of places in their spare times, Reid was amazed at the fun he had every time he went out with Garcia. She gave him the colourful perceptive on the world. He could go to her with anything and he would walk out with a smile on his face that gave him more hope than ever. Garcia was a true friend; she never let Reid down in any way, which was the one thing he truly needed then, for someone to confide in without worry at all.

Hotch was what Reid needed right now, if Reid had a problem he would go to Hotch. Hotch was the father he never had, he could rely on him and he could trust him. He had never had something like this with his real father and that was what was missing from his life, he never had a father's support and for the first time he did and it felt good and right.

Reid had felt something new in Rossi, he felt like Rossi was seeing him differently now and he was not some kid anymore. To Rossi Reid was no kid; Reid was the man with a strong heart and with the largest brain. Rossi could see that now, he could see Reid for what he truly was and he put a smile on his face.

Prentiss may have had her doubts about Reid getting through this, of Reid being able to handle this on top of everything else in his life. But she was wrong and was proud about it, she was proud that Reid had gotten through this and had a stronger out come because of it. Prentiss had seen a more confident side of Reid that she had never seen before and it amazed her. It showed her that the saying, 'Never judge a book by its cover' was true.

JJ was struggling afterwards, not knowing was the worst of it. She didn't know whether Reid would lose it or something worse but after three weeks he said something that showed her otherwise, he said 'Even though I have no memory, I still feel the scars and I still know something happened but that doesn't change the fact that I can't ruin everything you've built to protect'. His eyes showed that he meant it and she was glad about it. It was a battle every day and now the war was over, everything was now peaceful, everything was finally over and they could all go back to living there lives without fear or pain.

Reid was still sitting alone; he still liked the peace of being alone. He sat down to a book and flipped the pages with ease. He then felt a vibe, a vibe that caused him to go pale. His face slowly went around facing a man with a gun pointing directly between his eyes. He felt a single sweat roll down his face as he stared the man in the eyes.

"I'm sorry Dr Reid," The man was shaking, he didn't want to do this, "But I have to keep up my end of the deal and the deal is you can't see the daylight of tomorrow."

With that, a single shot rang throughout the apartment and the moonlight shone through the windows casting an eerie light into the dark apartment.

xoxoxo Bye for now but remember if you want a sequel tell me!
