I'm back sorry it took so long. You know what school is like. I really am sorry :( So here we go and again thank you to all my loyal and brilliant followers and readers!

Ashley woke up to pain meds running through her body. She couldn't feel anything. Or remember that much, she could remember a lot of pain and then Reid picking her up. Holding her hand in the ambulance the kiss he had planted on her forehead. She smiled at the thought, before remembering she was in hospital which was never a good sign. Turning her head she saw Reid, reading a book in the hospital chair. His beard was starting to grow and he had bags under his eyes. He hadn't left her side.

"Hey there Reid, what you reading? Reid, read!" She fell about laughing and a grin played Reid's face.

"Ash welcome back. I take it those pain meds are good?"

"I can't feel a thing or remember anything so fill me in when I am normal please. Pretty please with cherries on top."

Ashley was starting to move towards Reid a look in her eye which scared Reid slightly.

"Your eyes are gorgeous, your pretty damn hot to did you know that?"

"Ashley your really drugged up maybe you should just go back to sleep."

"I don't want to sleep Spence, why would I when you're right next to me?"

Reid reached out and stroked her cheek.

"I will be right here when you wake up and you won't be so out of it then."

Ashley's eyes were already starting to close.

"Mmm... Maybe you right Spence. Sleep is good, I like sleep. I like you as well Spencer. I want you." She closed her eyes and drifted back to sleep.

Leaving Reid shocked, he knew she was talking through the meds but did that mean it wasn't true? He looked back at the girl he liked and grinned. He sure hoped it was true.

-The next time Ashley woke up the pain was back only a dull aching but she knew that meant the meds had worn off. She also noticed it wasn't just Reid in the room anymore JJ and Morgan were also there. JJ was the first to notice she had woken up and her smile was massive.

"Ashley thank god. Reid said you were awake at some point, but you zoned out again pretty quickly."

"Yeah I can't really remember anything. How long have I been here?" Reid's face fell ever so slightly, but JJ continued on.

"Well 2 days, so you haven't really missed much."

"Ok that'd good." She turned to Reid.

"That's a 3 day stubble are you kidding me!" She reached out and stroked his chin. Reid blushed as Morgan burst into laughing but he couldn't help and follow. Through laughs Morgan started to laugh.

"I've missed this girl."

"I have too. I'm glad your back Ash."

-Reid helped Ashley into his car. He didn't want to let her out of his sight. He knew he'd have to at some point but he was willing to put it off as long as possible. The doctor said she was all ok and just a view bruises and a broken wrist. But to him that was still one injury to many. She kept insisting she was fine. But really she just wanted to get out of the hospital. Still he was relieved she was ok, it could of been so much worst.

"Hey Reid. My uncle had pictures of us on his wall. When I thought I was going to die that's what I focused on, you. I had to stay alive to see you again. Your face and your smile."

"He had pictures of us? You have no idea Ashley. I was scared that I'd never see you again. The way your eyes light up when you solve a case. Ash I have never felt so scared or lonely."

Reid leaned in and kissed Ashley and was shocked with how quickly she responded, deepening the kiss. Ashley moved her hands into Reid's hair and then winced when she remembered her wrist. Pulling back Reid looked at her and gently lifted her broken wrist and kissed it.

"Let's get you back home."

"Thanks Spence. Did you want to order in pizza? I mean if you wanted to stay for a bit."

"I'd love pizza. Thanks."

-"Are you kidding me Spence, Morgan actually cried! I can't believe Garcia made you go to that. Her and JJ I can understand watching Bridget Jones but Morgan crying! Brilliant!"

"He can never know I told you that! It was quite possibly the funniest thing I have seen!"

"There has got to be a movie you have cried at Reid!"

"I rarely watch movies and if I do there crime or horror. I have cried at books though."

"Let me guess the last Harry Potter got you too."

"It was the end!" Reid winks at Ashley before trying to cover up a yawn.

"It's getting late Spence and we have work tomorrow"

"I know I should probably go." Standing up they walked to the door. Ashley reached behind him and pulled his head gently down to her level, she kissed him passionately. Before bursting into giggles at his dazed look.

"See you tomorrow Spence."

"Bye Ash, are we keeping this secret for know?"

"I nearly died I think that should be our focus point." She rolled her eyes at the attention she was already going to be receiving let alone if her and Reid told everyone.

"Cool, I'm going to have to brace myself for Morgan's teasing." Planting a kiss on Ashley's head he left. Ashley fell into the sofa. What a week that had been!
