I have come to the conclusion that I will never sleep properly again so I have decided to put up another update for all my lovely readers.

Thank you so much for all of your reviews, they make me trust in my writing and I want to thank you for all for that.

Enjoy and Review if you want.

All mistakes are my own

Reid rested his head against the window as Ali drove towards the hospital. Reid wondered how his life had come to be at this point. He had always wondered what had caused him to become a vampire. He knew that a virus had turned him into a vampire but what he had always wondered was what had led him to being attacked that night fifteen years ago.

He had wanted to blame so many people but inside he knew it was just bad luck that he had been turned. He had been in the wrong place at the wrong time. He felt his heart sink slightly as he imagined what his life might have been like if he had never been attacked. What life might have been like if he had never died in Morgan's arms when they had raided the club fifteen years ago.

He had imagined himself with a wife and kids. Hell, he had imagined himself with a few grey hairs and wrinkles at least. He even imagined himself groaning as his body grew old.

"What are you thinking about?" Ali sighed as she turned a corner.

"Just imagining what could have been. I always imagined growing old, I always imagined myself moaning that I had grey hair or Morgan making fun of my grey hair. That is all it will ever be though. It will be just a thought, a dream that I can never achieve, instead I'm the same. I'm like a photograph, I'm frozen in time" Reid told her with a deflated tone.

"Every vampire has thoughts like that. I'm older than I look Reid, when I was human I was expected to play by the rules of society. You've known me for about twelve years now, how do you think I used to act?" she smiled gently at him.

"You have never played by the rules. I remember a certain women called Ali stealing a priceless bracelet from a private collector because she thought it looked pretty" Reid smirked back at her.

Ali gave him a gentle punch to the shoulder. Reid let out a small chuckle before resting back into his seat.

"My point is that you can view being a vampire as a curse or you can try and see the good things about it. I miss my family, they are long dead now but one of the good things about being a vampire is the freedom and the new people that I meet. As the decades have passed I have embraced the freedom but I have also learned to reign it in. I view meeting you as a good thing, if I wasn't a vampire I wouldn't have known the pleasure of being around Dr. Spencer Reid" she explained before letting out a small chuckle at her last comment.

"You have a point" Reid smiled "I would have never known the crazy antics of Ali Grayson if I hadn't been turned. I certainly wouldn't have participated in some of the antics."

Reid knew that there had been things about being a vampire that had made it bearable. He had met Taylor and had wonderful years with her. The pain of her death had dulled slightly, he hated to admit it but it was being replaced by a new but not foreign feeling.

It had arrived the moment she had saved him. It hit him everytime that he looked at her.

He had fallen for the hell angel called Ali Grayson. He looked at her as she backed into a hospital parking space. Was he betraying Taylor by feeling like this?

"Come on Reid. Sunrise is in a few hours so if you want to spend a long time with Hotch I suggest we go now" she told him before she exited the car. Reid didn't want to get caught in the sun and he needed to speak with Hotch about a few things.

Reid walked through the hospital doors and began to make his way to Hotch, they had asked at the reception desk. Reid was relieved to hear that Hotch was in a room recovering. He noticed Ali tense as they made their way through the floor that Hotch was on. He felt the same way. Blood was everywhere, it was on display as it was pumped into people who needed it. They both took a deep breath and hushed the voice that told them to feed.

Reid turned the corner and found himself looking at a young man leaving Hotch's room. He immediately knew that it was Jack Hotchner. Reid put on a pair of black shade glasses that Ali had given him. He didn't know if Hotch had told Jack that he was back and he didn't want to freak Jack out. Reid let out a small breath of relief when he saw that Jack looking at his phone as he walked by them. Ali laughed slightly when she looked at Reid.

"What?" he asked confused.

"I guess I'll ask what that was about later Mr Men in Black" she joked. Reid whipped off the glasses as soon as Ali had finished her sentence. He opened Hotch's door and peaked his head round the corner. He smiled when he saw Hotch and Garcia speaking. They both looked up and looked shocked as Reid walked through the door.

"Hey" he said quietly.

Next update will be tomorrow as I am getting back into my writing flow.

Hope you liked the chapter
