Wheel's Up || Spencer Reid

Spencer

Hotch didn't let me ride in the ambulance with Avery, so I had to meet her at the hospital. I was mad, but relived. I didn't want to admit it, but I though she was dead. Seeing her in pain was unbearable. I almost lost her, and I couldn't even look her in the eye.

By the time I got to the hospital she was in surgery. She had a concussion, internal bleeding, two broken ribs, and a fractured wrist. I keep telling myself it could have been worse, but no matter how hard I try all I feel is anger, and guilt. I was the reason she was in this mess. I should have gone with her to her apartment. I was the reason I almost lost her.

It had been a three hour surgery, and she has been asleep for an hour. Nobody was talking to me, But everyone was looking at me. Jj, Derek and Rossi went home to get sleep. Me, Hotch, Emily, Garcia, and Andrew were still at the hospital.

Andrew walked over to me

"Thank you" he said

"For what"

"Saving her"

"Ya, but she's hurt"

"Ok but she's alive. Spencer she's strong. One time she almost broke my arm because I said tom Hiddleston was ugly"

"Tom who?"

"Oh you don't know who he is. ya she might hate you for that one. Anyway that's not the point. She's tough, and a fighter. She's going to get better"

"She's going to hate me"

"No she's not. You saved her life today she's going to be greatful"

"You promise"

"Yes I promise I know my best friend better than anymore. She'll probably just give you a kiss and say thank you" I smiled. I missed kissing Avery. I was worried that the kiss when we left the bau building would be our last one.

"You guy's can see her now she just woke up, but be careful she's fragile right now" I hadn't notice the doctor walk into the room, but I immediately stood up

"Is she going to be ok?" I asked before anyone else could

"It's going to be a hard recovery, but she'll be ok" everyone let out a sigh of relief.

"Reid do you want to see her first?" Hotch asked me

"Yes" I ran past them to Avery's room.

I walked in to see her all bruised up. My heart ached for her. She was on her phone so she didn't notice me come in. I knocked on the door and she looked up

"Spencer!!" She said smiling at me and I smiled back while walking closer to her

"How are you feeling?"

"Better now that you're here"

"Can I get you anything"

"Just some cuddles"

"I don't know if thats a good idea you're hurt and I don't want to-" she cut me off

"Spencer please. I'll be ok I promise. I almost died today it's the least you could do" I nodded my head, and got on the bed with her. I lightly put my arm around her, and she put her head on my chest. She started playing with my finger like she normally did. 

"Avery I'm so sorry" I could feel myself tearing up again

"Spencer please don't apologize. You didn't know she was crazy if anything it's my fault for not recognizing her"

"Avery please don't blame yourself there was nothing you could do I should have found you sooner"

"If I can't blame myself you can't blame yourself. We can just blame Drew like I do for all my problems" we both let out a low laugh. I could tell it hurt her, but she tried to hide it.
