Chapter 7
"Everything is going to be okay." Morgan whispered as he intervened his fingers with Reid's, and giving it a comfortable squeeze.
Morgan watched the form of sedated Reid sleeping peacefully with oxygen mask over his nose and mouth.
"He is strong, Derek."
Morgan took a quick glance behind him and saw JJ walking in with a card in her hand.
"Henry made it?" Morgan asked, pointing towards the card.
"Yeah." JJ opened the card and slipped it nicely in the flower basket on the table beside Reid's bed.
"What did you tell Henry?" Morgan asked, smiling at the colorfully painted card.
"Uncle Spencer is sick and need some time to get better."
"Let me guess," Morgan looked at JJ "It didn't work."
JJ shrugged. "He has been bugging me to bring him here. He said he wants to read to his Uncle Spencer."
"Read?"
"When Henry was sick two months ago, Spence would stop by everyday and read for him. I know Reid would love to have Henry here but I don't want Henry to get scared looking at his godfather like this."
"I know, JJ." Morgan bite his lips. " I just wish ..."
"He will make it, we know how strong Spence is." JJ said as she wiped off a few strands of hair from Reid's forehead.
"Are you trying to console me or yourself?" Morgan asked.
"Both." JJ smiled weakly. "Will said just be strong for him but I don't know how to do that."
"Simple." Morgan answered and JJ looked up, meeting Morgan's eyes. "Let him know that you are here fighting together with him."
"How do I do that?" JJ questioned.
"Just be here for him and giving him all the support we can."
"You sound so different." JJ smiled.
"That's what my mother told me." Morgan explained.
JJ went and sat on the bed nearer to Morgan's chair, she bend forward and held the Reid's hand which Morgan was holding. "Can you hear us, Spence? We are here for you."
"We are here for you too, junior G-man," Garcia said as she walked in with Emily, Hotch and Rossi.
Garcia went in straight towards Morgan, with one her hands on Morgan's shoulders, she gently rubbed Reid's hand. "Get well soon, pumpkin."
"He will." Hotch said and the others nodded in agreement.
Somehow the day passed by without any news from Dr. Amy. All they was aware was nurse Jessie would walk in every five hours, check for readings on the machines beside Reid's bed, write something on the clipboard and finally gave a smile to the rest of the team before she walks out.
After a long and restless night, the latest scan report finally showed the results Dr. Amy had been hoping for and because of the improvement the medication had been stopped. Upon having the great news, Hotch and Rossi went out to grab breakfast for all of them.
Garcia went back and resume sitting beside Reid, stroking his hair. "It would be easier for him to wake up when he knows that we are just beside him."
"Do you think he knows we are her for him?" Emily questioned as she opened the window, allowing in the fresh air.
"I believe so." Morgan whispered.

Five Hours Later.
A faint groan from the bed alerted everyone, causing them to jump directly to the bed.
"Reid?" JJ called, moving one of her hands to Reid's shoulder while the other one gripping Garcia's hand for support.
"Can you hear us, kid?"
Reid's eyelids began to flutter open and after a few more seconds he couldn't help but to smile when he saw the rest of his team member, his family standing beside the bed, looking at him.
"Good to see you awake," Hotch said gently. "How are you feeling?"
"Hey, guys." Reid rasped before he coughed.
"How are you feeling?" Rossi stressed on the question again.
"Extremely tired, my head is killing me, cold and ... I can't focus in anything."
"It's okay." Emily said as she wrapped another warn blanket around Reid. "Dr. Amy said it is normal to feel cold when your blood pressure decrease."
Reid nodded faintly, before he exhaled and closed his eyes.
"Reid?" Garcia called quietly.
"Hmmm." Reid hummed.
"Are you okay?" JJ asked.
"No." Reid answered shortly.
"Call Dr. Amy!" Morgan spoke at once when he saw Reid's very tired and confused eyes but before any one could react on anything, Reid bounced up and vomited.
"I am so sorry..." Reid blurted out, with his body shivering and tears rolling down his cheeks.
"Reid, relax...it's okay." JJ comforted him as she sat beside him, hugging him from his side and gently rubbed his back.
Morgan and Hotch gently pulled the blanket covered with Reid's stomach content, wrapped the blanket carefully and cleared it off the bed.
"I am so sorry...I didn't mean it." Reid said as he helped himself with another blanket given by Garcia.
"Reid, there is nothing you need to feel guilty about." Morgan said as he walked closer to Reid with a wet towel in his hand. "Here." Morgan used to towel to wipe Reid's face and hands.
"Can you give us a room for a while? I think it is better if he changes into a fresh cloth."
Reid turned back to Morgan when the others walked out. " I am sorry." Reid whispered like a kid.
"Spencer...would you think twice to help me if I was in your place?"
Reid looked for a second, knowing where Morgan was going and told the truth "Of course not."
"Then, shut up and stretch your hand." Morgan said before he took a fresh cloth for Reid.
Once changed, Reid pulled the blanket around him, keeping himself warm.
"Spencer, you won't feel bad right if I do something?"
"Do what?" Reid asked, looking up at Morgan, still readjusting his blanket.
Morgan said nothing but he went forward, sat on the bed and hugged Reid. With his hands around Reid's back,his head resting on Reid's shoulder, Morgan couldn't hold his tears back thinking of all the things he went through for the past few days.
No words was exchanged but Reid understood. He wrapped his hands around Morgan, gently rubbing the back, Reid said "I am not going anywhere, brother."
