Hotch was going through the profile with Rossi, when his phone rang. He picked up the phone immediately, as he saw the caller ID.

"Yes Reid?" Hotch asked the young agent.

"H-Hotch … "He heard that the voice of his agent was different, but not full of desperate and hurt, it was something else, something he hasn´t heard in his voice for days.

"She´s awake … Anna is awake…"


Earlier, JJ´s POV

JJ left her the hospital room to get herself and Reid something to drink. She had never seen him this way … never. And she has seen him in his worst times, during and after the 'Hankel case', during his addiction everyone knew about and none but Gideon was able to talk to him about and she has seen him after Emily´s "death".

And it was then, when JJ realised how much her friend has truly gone through and what he has seen in his young life, but every time during those horrible hours, she was sure that he would be able to come through, to make it out again … but she wasn´t so sure this time.

For Spencer, losing his fiancée meant, to lose the one person that he had known since his childhood, to lose someone who had accompanied him throughout his life and to lose his true love. She was able to see the love he had for her, but not just in his actions, she saw it in his eyes as well.

But for her, it was unclear how much more he could take. And she was sure, that losing Anna was something, he would probably never be able to overcome, something that would throw him back into his addiction or into something even worse, no matter how much they would want to help him.

JJ realized, that the BAU-Team was in fact a family, but Anna has been Spencer´s family as well. And she wanted Reid to be happy so badly, she wanted him to be able to have a family of his own, to have someone to grow old with and to simply have someone to love in his life … and he had already found someone, he would be able to share all those things with.

Nerveless she didn´t understand, how life could be so cruel to someone she considered family. She started to feel anger, how could someone go through so many bad things in a row and then find someone who brought him true happiness, just so that it could be ripped away from him again. It wasn´t fair, neither for Spencer nor for Anna, who had been through so much as well. And maybe it was the reason that they were so perfect to each other, the fact that both of them had been at the end and came back, because of the other one. She had to wake up, that wasn´t a wish for JJ anymore, it was something she was sure of.


Earlier, Reid´s POV

Reid was still holding Anna´s hand as it was the only thing that mattered, but what exactly did matter anymore? As much as he wanted to do something, he couldn´t. He would have to start to believe in fate, there wasn´t anything else. He had always been someone, who could only think rational, there was always an explanation, whether he liked it or not, but there was always one. But this time, he couldn´t think logical, for the first time in his life he didn´t understand something.

How … How could someone be so horrible, how could someone do so many bad things to someone as precious as Anna was, he would never get it. This Jeff, his stomach already churning while thinking of this monster, had treated the love of his life in the worst ways. He beat her, he hurt her physically and mentally and never saw how amazing she really was.

While he himself had been thankful every day, to be able to have her in his life, when they weren´t together as much as when they were. For him, she was everything and he had made sure to show her just that every single day. He would always beat himself for not realizing it all sooner, but he had at least been trying to show her how much he loved her from then on.

All he wished, more than anything else, even more than being able to find Breakson, was to see her waking up. To be finally able to hold her again, to look into her beautiful eyes and to tell her that he loved her. That was the only thing he wished for, the only thing he could think of.

Again, he stroked his thumb over the back of her hand as he had caught himself doing so often since she fell into coma. Why couldn´t it all be easy, why couldn´t life be easy on them at least once, why did there always have to be walls that kept him from being with her. The tears were threatening to fall again as he started to speak, still holding onto her hand.

"Come on Anna, I need you to wake up, do you hear me. I can´t life without you and you know that, because you are my everything, you are all I could´ve ever asked for. I promised you that I would always love you, that I would never leave you and you promised me the same. Come on, you can´t leave me, you need to come back. I love you so much …"

Suddenly, he felt something, something like a light squeeze against his hands, something he had wished and prayed for, more than he had for anything else. He was so taken aback that he froze for the slightest time of a second, before he realized what just had happened.

"Anna … Anna can you hear me, Anna if you hear me please …" And that was when he felt it again, a squeeze at his hand, this time a little bit stronger than before, and then there was the whisper, the whisper of the voice he had been longing to hear again and that he had missed so much.

"Spencer…" It was nearly inaudible, but it was enough for him, it was enough the let out the tears that he had tried so hard to keep in, enough to let all of his emotions out and to allow himself to realize, that she was with him, she was back.

"Anna…" she opened her eyes slightly, finally looking at him, both of them having wanted nothing more than to be with each other again. He couldn´t say anything, it was too much. He pressed his lips to her forehead, the tears freely flowing down his faces as he pressed his forehead against hers as he broke the kiss, both of them smiling at each other through their tears.

"I thought I had lost you…" he whispered, before his lips found hers again. There were so many things he felt at once, just as much as she did … happiness … relief … joy. She was back with him, he was finally able to look into her eyes, to hear her voice again, to see her smile and to feel her lips against his. That was all he had wanted.

"So did I … I love you" Anna whispered as they broke from the kiss, before he replied in the same whisper "I love you too …" They smiled at each other, while he took her face into his hands and used his thumbs to brush away the tears that she had shed. They stayed like that for a long time, neither of them knew, if it where seconds, minutes or even hours, but it didn´t matter as long as they were able to stay with each other.

"I missed you so much" he told her, while he tucked a piece of hair behind her ear and she slowly nodded at him, showing him that she hadn´t felt any different, before they embraced each other into a tight hug.

Suddenly, they heard a gasp behind them and turned around to see JJ standing in the doorway, having tears in her eyes and a smile on her lips. Neither knew what to say until JJ found her voice again and made her way over to the young couple.

"Hi … I´m JJ and I ... I … God I´m so happy you woke up…" she rushed the words out and made him and Anna chuckle. "Hi, I´m Anna" and while he stood up slowly, not really wanting to leave, JJ surprised all of them, even herself, with giving Anna a tight hug.

"Well, I should … probably get a doctor or something" JJ said, brushing her tears away with her sleeves and went to the door. Soon afterwards, a doctor and a nurse rushed in to check on Anna, though Spencer never left her side and she was thankful for that. During that, he decided that he had to call Hotch and let him know. After his call, Hotch had told him to wait, they would come to the hospital.

JJ told them, that she would wait outside for the team, so that they could have a couple of minutes to themselves. She smiled at them before leaving the room. Reid instantly sat down again and embraced his fiancée in a hug.

The team arrived soon afterwards, with Garcia, who didn´t want to miss the opportunity to get to know Anna.

"JJ, how is she?" Hotch asked immediately as he saw the tears that were still in his agents eyes. JJ simply smiled and nodded her head towards the room. Through the window, they were able to see the couple in a tight embrace, none needing to hear the answer as they saw both of them smiling.
