Senior Year-Ch 27

Everybody is laying wrapped in the arms of the person they love when Reids cell starts going off, he leans over and picks his cell up off the table and sees that it is another one of the women he has staying with his mom. He looks at JJ and says, "I need to take this it is about my mom", she smiles as he answers the call.

When the call ends, he jumps up and starts getting dressed, JJ says, "what's wrong Spence"?, he says, "that was Lucy they had to take my mom to the hospital she took another episode". JJ got up and put her clothes on and said, "I will go let everybody know that we are heading back and see what they want to do".

She kisses his lips before getting dressed and heading out the door, she stops outside a door, she knocks and Rossi says, "yeah"m JJ says, "it's me,
I need to come in something happened". Rossi and Erin threw the sheet up over them and Rossi said, "come in JJ", she opened the door and told them what was happening, they instantly got up and got dressed.

JJ moved to the next door and knocked, she heard Emily say, "yesssssss", she smiled and said, "guys it's me I need to talk to you", Hotch said, "come in Jayje". She walked inside and told them about Reids mom, Hotch looked at Emily and they both agreed that it was best if they go home and be there to support Reid.

She then goes to the final door and knocks, she hears Derek say, "who is it"?, she grins and says, "it's me JJ, I need to talk to you", they both sit up and Penelope says, "come in sunshine". She walks inside and tells them about Reids call and Derek says, "we will be ready to head out in a few minutes".

JJ turns and heads out of the room and hurries to get back to Reid, when she walks into their room their stuff is packed and he is getting ready to zip up their bags. She walks over and wraps her arms around his waist and says, "they all want to come home with us", he smiles and says, "I just hate to spoil the rest of the trip".

JJ kisses his lips and says, "honey things like this can't be helped, there will always be another time that we can get away, don't worry about it ok"?, he kissed her lips and says, "what did I do to deserve a girlfriend like you"?, she smiled and said, "I love you Spence and I would do anything for you and your mom".

A few minutes later everybody was downstairs and ready to go, Reid looked at everybody and said, "I'm sorry about this guys", Penelope hugged him and said, "don't worry sweetie, everything will be ok". He smiled and said, "what time we had up here was amazing and I want to thank all of you for coming home with me".

They all got in the van and Rossi smiled at Erin as they pulled away from the cabin, JJ put her hand in Reids and gently squeezed it, he looked over at her and smiled gently and she laid her head on his shoulder and sighed. Derek smiled at Penelope and said, "what's on your mind princess"?, she looked over at him and said, "I was just thinking about all this homecoming queen crap handsome".

He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer to him, he kissed her temple and said, "baby you are gonna be homecoming queen, I can feel it". She caressed the side of his face and said, "you are sweet my love but there is no way that I am going to be the most popular girl in school for that position".

She laid her head down on his chest and sighed contently, Hotch intertwined fingers with Emily and said, "you look beautiful Ms. Prentiss", she laughed and said, "why thank you Mr. Hotchner". The rest of the ride back home flew by and soon they were all walking into the hospital, JJ and Reid walked over to the nurses desk to ask about his mom when Lucy ran over to them.

Reid said, "what happened Lucy"?, she said, "she was fine and then suddenly she jumped up and started pacing and talking about how the facists had taken you". Reid ran his hands through his hair and said, "what happened next"?, Lucy said, "I tried to explain to her that you were gone with your friends but that only made it worse, she accused me of lying and working with the facists so she ran away from us and that is when she collapsed".

The doctor walked over to Reid and said, "I need to talk to you in private Spencer", Reid held tight to JJ's hand and said, "this is my girlfriend and you can say anything in front of her". He motioned for them to follow him into a room so they could discuss his moms condition in private, once inside the room the doctor opened his mouth to speak.

He leaned forward and said, "Spencer your moms condition is only getting worse, I think it is time to start thinking about maybe putting her into an institution". Spencers heart broke at the prospects of doing that to his mother but he knew that she wasn't going to get the care that she needed by staying at home with him anymore.

JJ squeezed his hand gently for support, she wanted him to know that she was with him all the way, after the conversation ended JJ and Reid headed back out to join the rest of the gang. Reid walked over to them and wiped his eyes and said, "they are in the process of having my mom admitted into an institution, her condition is getting so much worse and I'm not able to take care of her anymore".

Emily and Penelope hugged their friend and said, "you did your best sweetie, don't blame yourself", Reid smiled and said, "thanks everybody, I really appreciate you being here with me". JJ smiled at Reid and said, "there is no other place that we would rather be", he kissed her temple and said, "I love you all for being here for me".

He looked down at his watch and said, "you all need to head home and get your stuff put up, I am going to stay here until I get to see my mom", JJ smiled at her boyfriend and said, "I'm going to stay with you Spence, is that alright"?, he grinned and said, "it certainly is, I need you right now Jayje, I need you all so much".

Derek put his hand on Reids shoulder and said, "we are all here for you Reid", he smiled at Derek and said, "thanks", everybody looked over their shoulders as they saw JJ and Reid walk over and sit down. Derek wrapped his arm around Penelope and said, "he is strong baby girl, he is going to be alright, we will all make sure of it".

Reid sighed and closed his eyes, he soon felt JJ intertwine their fingers, he looked up at her and said, "I love you JJ", she smiled and said, "I love you to Spence", she then laid her head on his shoulder and they sat there quietly waiting on the doctor to come and tell them that they could see Reids mom.
