Short chapter I know, sorry! I just wanted to take a minute and let you all know that, a couple chapter's back Reid said 'I will love you.' And I get the feeling that some people might take that to mean that he is in love with her. Well he doesn't actually love her and she doesn't love him. They aren't in love is what I'm trying to say. But they both feel that they could love one another if they had more time to be together. Hope that you can understand that . Sounds kinda weird to me now that I've typed it out but ... yeah ...
Anywhozzel ! Hope you enjoy ! R&R

"You did wonderful." Casey smiled at her. "You were perfect." He added, turning onto another street, still smiling. "I can't believe how wonderful it all turned out! You were great!"

"Thank you…" Alex whispered softly, pressed up against the passenger door, as far away from Casey as possible. Slowly, she looked down at her hand, and cringed when she saw the glint of the diamond on her left hand ring finger. "I'm…glad." She added, trying to keep him happy,

"She adored you. She loved you!" He added, smiling even more. "She thinks you're perfect. I knew she would." He turned and looked at her for a moment, before looking back at the road, still smiling. "You should be happy that she didn't kick you out after you said you didn't like tea. Mother doesn't usually tolerate people being rude."

"I wasn't being rude." Alex said angrily, forgetting herself and who she was with for a moment.

"What?" Casey snapped, and Alex flinched. "What did you say?"

She took a deep breath and looked over at him, the truck now slowing down. "I said…I wasn't being rude."

The truck came to a complete stop now, Casey parking it, his eyes looking forward and away from her.

"You weren't being rude…" He whispered, pulling the keys out of the ignition and taking a deep breath. "You weren't being rude…" He repeated.

"No…" Alex whispered softly, watching him. "I don't think I was…" She added in a low tone, knowing that no matter what she said, it wouldn't stop what was about to happen.

Slowly, Casey turned and looked at her, and Alex could have sworn she saw his eyes change color. "You bitch!" He screamed, before leaning forward and slapping her so hard, she flew back, smashing her head against the window. "Don't you ever insult my mother like that ever again!" He screamed, hitting her again.

"I'm sorry!" Alex cried out, tears streaming down her face as the assault continued.

Slowly, the hitting stopped and Casey pulled away. "Alexandra…please, don't ever insult mother again. She means the world to me." He paused then and looked at her lovingly, scaring her more then anything. "Well, that's a lie. You mean the world to me but…she is my mother. Do you understand?" He asked, reaching forward and cupping her face.

It took all her strength not to flinch at his touch, but slowly she nodded. "Yes….I understand."

"Good." He smiled, as his hand fell away from her face, and he took her left hand in his. "Good." He repeated, looking over her hand as if in a trance, before he pulled her hand up and pressed her fingers to his lips.

Alex snapped her eyes shut as tears spilled over, a disgusted feeling in the pit of her stomach forming.

"Now." He whispered softly, pulling her hand away from his lips. "We better get going. I don't wanna wait to late to get to our spot." Letting her hand drop, Casey placed the keys back into the ignition and started up the truck. "I've got something very special planned. So that we can finished what we started all those years ago." Placing the truck into drive, he turned and gave her one last look. "I know you're going to love it."

As they drove away, Alex looked out the window to see a man and a woman standing there watching the truck. She hoped with everything that she was that they saw what happened and would call the cops.

But something inside her told her that, even if they did, it would be too late regardless.

"Adam! And Connor! What are you doing here?" The woman at the door asked, a cigarette in her hand, her hair up in a tight bun. "And who are these people?"

"Ah…Ellie do you think we could come in?" Adam asked.

"A gentleman never asks…"

"We're with the FBI." Derek said angrily, pulling his badge out. "And we need to speak to you about your son."

"Casey? Oh he just left!" She smiled happily.

"Ellie, how much have you had to drink tonight?" Connor asked, stepping forward to the smiling elderly lady.

"Only one brandy." She smiled. "But they do seem to be stronger these days. Now what do the FBI want with my Casey?"

"When he was here, was he with someone?" Spencer asked, stepping up to the door, pushing Adam and Connor out of the way.

"Oh yes! His fiancé! Alexandra!"

"Fiancé?" Adam called, looking in at the small elderly woman.

"Oh yes! Lovely girl. Very pretty too. Although she has a nasty bruise on her cheek. Not very lady like!" Ellie laughed while Spencer flinched and looked at Derek, while Elli continued to speak. "Casey came to get my wedding and engagement rings for the dear girl. And my approval of course."

"Of course." Adam called, trying to smile as if he were interested.

"I must say, she was very shocked when he slipped those rings on her finger. The poor dear was shaking." Ellie laughed then. "Probably excited."

"No doubt." Connor whispered.

"But why are you here asking about Casey and Alexandra? Have they done something wrong?"

"Ma'am…" Derek stepped forward then, his ton soft. "Casey and Alexandra aren't engaged. They aren't even a couple."

"What do you mean?" She asked.

"Casey has taken Alexandra without consent." Derek explained, but Ellie didn't seem to understand. "He's uh…he…"

"He kidnapped her." Connor said harshly.

"I beg your pardon! Casey did no such thing!"

"I beg your pardon Ellie, but your son kidnapped my best friend." Adam fired back.

"Easy." Derek warned.

"I don't understand. See didn't act afraid, or scared. She even told me how much she loved him."

"He probably groomed her to say these things before they arrived." Spencer noted, "How long ago were they here?"

"Oh maybe half an hour ago? They were in and out pretty fast. Casey didn't even finish his coffee." Sadly, Ellie looked up at them all. "Will he hurt that poor girl?"

"If the bruise you mentioned tells us anything…" Spencer sighed heavily. "Then he already has."

"Did Casey say where they were going?" Derek asked.

"No. Well…he said they had a special date at their special place. But I don't know where that is."

"Alright, thank you for your time."

"I'm…very sorry." Ellie called as they stepped away from the house.

"Special place…any ideas?" Derek asked, turning to Adam and Connor.

"No…Casey was never really with Alex unless we got together at a bar when he was in town." Connor explained, as they approached the car.

"Yeah. And aside from the Beach back in high school…."

"The beach." Spencer said fast, turning and looking at the brothers. "That's where he took her."

"Where is it?" Derek asked.

"Not too far from here. Maybe…ten, fifteen minutes?" Connor said, looking to Adam for reassurance, who nodded.

"His mother said he left half an hour ago. They'll already be there." Spencer said frantically, before they all jumped into the car.

"Call Hotch. Tell him where we're going." Derek ordered, as he started to SUV up, shifting it into drive.

"Hotch? He took her to the beach. Right…what do you mean? When?!" Spence called into his phone, outraged.

"What?" Derek called, glancing over at Spencer as he drove.

"Right. We'll meet you there." Pulling his phone away from his ear, Spencer sighed.

"What happened?" Adam asked, as both her and Connor leaned forward.

"Nine-one-one call just came in and Garcia got notified. A man and a woman called in and said that they witnessed a woman who fit Alexandra's description getting assaulted in a truck."

"What kind of truck?" Adam asked.

"Ford."

"That's what Casey drives." Connor said angrily.

"We gotta get to that beach." Derek said softly, pressing harder on the gas. "Now."

"Don't be shy." Casey laughed, as Alex slowly made her way towards him, her arms wrapped tightly around her cold and exposed body. "Come on Alex." He called, urging her to quicken her pace.

"Coming…" She whispered, letting her arms drop before she marched towards him, the sand cold against her feet.

"There we go." He smiled as she neared him, his arms opening up for her. "Do you like what I've laid out?"

Alex took a minute and looked at the spread he's set out. There were blankets laid out in the sand, and a few small pillows as well. And all around the area, there were candles in the sand casting a glow around her and him. She saw in the corner of the blankets, a dozen red roses, and a small box that was shaped like a heart. Chocolates she assumes.

"Well?" HE said more urgently.

"It's…lovely." She smiled softly, pulling her arms back up around her.

"Now…don't do that." He snapped, reaching forward and pulling her arms down. "I asked you to bring these items so that I could admire them, not watch you hid in shame."

Alex nodded slowly, keeping her arms at her sides as she felt his eyes gaze over her body, as he admired her leopard lace teddy and matching panties.

"Why don't you," Casey called, as he slowly reached up and started to undo the buttons of his shirt. "Come over any lay down?" He suggested, still watching her.

"Oh…okay." Alex agreed, before slowly walking past him and to the blanket where she sat down, pulling her knees up to her chest.

"I think…" Casey called, before he knelt down, hovering over her with his shirt fully unbuttoned. "That tonight will be a night to remember." He smiled, as he reached up and touched her cheek.

Slowly, he leaned in and kissed her neck, as tears filled Alexandra's eyes.
