"Don't bother just to be better than your contemporaries or predecessors. Try to be better than yourself." William Faulkner
*EDITED*

There's a loud banging on my front door that wakes me up. I slowly open my eyes, moaning, looking at my clock that read 6:30.

I slowly rolled out of my bed and slowly make my way to the front door, opening it.

"What do you want?!" I half tell half whisper from being so tired.

I glance at Morgan who is standing at my door holding two cups of what smells like coffee.

"Hey there is no reason to use that tone with me young lady" Morgan says in a fatherly tone.

Ever since I joined the BAU Morgan had become kinda like a father figure, in a best friend sort of way.

"It's time for work so stop complaining," he says letting himself into my house, walking to my bedroom and sitting on the edge of my bed.

I slowly follow him into the room and flop down next to him laying face down, "don't make me gooooooo" I complain yelling into the bed.

I can hear him laugh, "Hey you're the one who begged Hotch to let you go back to work, you still had another week off."

I groan again, 'Why would I do that.'

"Fine." I mumble pushing myself up going to my closet to get clothes, then to my bathroom to change.

After getting ready I walk back into my room to see Morgan still sitting on my bed, "There you don't look like a monster anymore."

I roll my eyes, smiling a little, "Oh ha ha." I say grabbing my drink out of his hands and taking a sip. "Ok let's go before I change my mind." I say walking out of my bedroom, towards the front door.

"Well Bec you can't technically-" Morgan starts to talk as he follows me out of my house, "Oh shut up" I say, cutting him off as I get into the passenger seat of his car.

Though the windshield I can see Morgan laughing before getting into the car and driving us to work.

I'm sitting at my desk when JJ walks up to me and leans against the side of the desk, "Hey, how you feeling?" She asks me in that motherly tone of hers.

"Tired." Is the first word that comes to mind, and I was tired.

"Now is that sleep tired or tired of people and their actions tired?"

I knew exactly what she meant by that sentence, and it makes me glance over to Spencer's empty desk, "Both?" I mumble almost question like.

"What exactly happened anyway?"

*Flashback*

I'm laying on the hospital bed flipping through my magazine for about the fourth time.

"May I come in?" I look up to see Spencer standing in the doorway, "Only if you are more entertaining than this." I say holding up the magazine.

He laughs and enters the room, shutting the room behind him, "That bored huh?" He says sitting down at the end of my bed. "Yes! I literally I have nothing to do. Being in a hospital sucks."

He lets out a small laugh then his expression goes blank.

"What?" I ask, sitting up. "Nothing," He mumbles.

"Seriously what?"

"Ok I need to tell you something," He says scratching the back of his head.

"Ok..?"

"So after what happened I got a little concerned you know?"

"Yeah?"

"So- now don't get mad- but I went to Garcia and had her look in on you."

"You did what!?" I yell at him.

"Hey her and JJ told me it was wrong-"

"JJ knows too!"

"Well yes but I didn't think you would get so mad about this."

"Well how would I not be mad! I dont need people I've known for what? A week now looking at my past."

"Bec I-"

"What do you know?" I ask with a blank expression.

Spencer lets out a sigh, "Let's just say this isn't your first time in a hospital."

"Alcoholic parent right?" He says.

"Get out." I whisper, cutting him off.

"What?"

"I said get out Spencer!"I yell pointing at the door. He looks at me in shock, before getting up and leaving the room, slamming the door behind him.

Once hes gone I get out of bed and storm into the bathroom in my room, slamming and locking the door. I can hear a nurse enter my room on the other side of the door, so I turn on the shower so she won't question my disappearance.

I start looking through the cabinets under the sink searching for a razor, only to find towels and extra soaps and shampoos. "Dammit." I mumble, trying to stay silent enough for no one to hear. I sit on tho floor leaning against the door, dreading my release.

*End of Flashback*

"Come on my pretties! Its that time again to fight crime!" I look up to see Garcia stumbling into the briefing room holding a pile of papers. "Great." JJ mumbles grabbing her stuff from her desk. "Oh I'm so glad to be back." I say sarcastically following the team up into the room.

Hello! So I'm procrastinating doing my homework and so that's why I casually decided to not end this chapter the way I had planned so I guess this is kinda a part one but not really?

Oh! OK so I was wondering if any of you awesome people wanted to make a book cover for me? Now I'm fine with the one I mad but I thought it would be fun to change it, so if anyone wants to make one then send it to me that would be awesome!

OK that's all bye!
