A/N IM SORRY I LOVE THE EMILY DIED THING! FORGIVE ME AND REVIEW
"You actually died?" Reid asked her, his voice high and scared. Emily nodded, studying him. The rest of the tram glanced at him in concern, especially JJ, but Reid didn't notice.
Reid stared at her. He didn't know why this new revelation scared him so much. Emily actually died. She coded and was revived. Somehow that made him feel even worse about her "death." Because she really did die. He actually did almost lose Emily. And the thought scared the hell out of him.
Rossi's words snapped him out of his thoughts. "Reid, whats the best way to make sure the victims have an experience?"
Reid thought for a moment. "Keep them dead longer," he replied.
Reid was staring out the window of the jet, thinking about the past year. He was still hurt that JJ, his best friend, lied to him, but he understood why she had to do it. He understood she didn't want to keep the secret, but had to. For Emily's protection. And that thought brought him back to what had been bothering him all day. Emily died. She coded. Sure, they brought her back, but just the thought of her dying...
"Reid?" he heard Emily ask him tentatively, as she moved to sit next to him.
"Yeah?" He answered.
"You okay?" She asked.
"I'm fine," he answered, looking away.
"Reid... " she said, her voice trailing off. "Are you still mad?" she asked.
Reid looked up, hurt in his eyes, "I didn't know you coded," he mumbled.
"And that's what's been bothering you all day?" Emily asked with concern. Reid didn't answer.
"Reid, I'm really sorry, you know that. Right? I hated having to out you all through that pain but it was that or let Doyle kill you all to get to me," Emily explained, almost desperately.
" I know," Reid whispered. "I just spent all that time thinking you were dead, and then you weren't. You were right there. You were back. And then I found out you coded and I realized how close we actually were to losing you," Reid answered. Emily reached across the table and grabbed his hand.
"Reid, you're like a little brother to me. I'm not going anywhere, especially without saying goodbye," she said knowingly.
"How did you know about that?" Reid
asked.
Emily nodded over towards a sleeping JJ. "She hated lying to you Reid. Don't hold it against her. One of the first things she said to me when I came back was how worried she was about you and how guilty she felt, and how she deserved you being mad at her," Emily said.
"Really?" he asked.
"Really," Emily answered. "We good?" she asked him.
Reid smiled. "Yeah, we're good."
