"Again. I can't believe I'm running late again." Elijah sighed as he hurried to tie his shoes.
"You're always running late now." Fleur laughed on the phone.
"Come on, this is only the second time." Elijah sighed.
"We're not doing anything yet. We're all just chilling." Fleur shrugged.
"Look, I'll be there soon." Elijah shook his head,"Tell Reid that I love him."
"Reid!" Fleur shouted.
"You don't need to shout at him."
"Reid." Fleur whispered.
"Better." Elijah nodded as he grabbed his keys.
"What is it?" He heard Reid ask.
"Elijah says he loves you." Fleur hummed.
"I do." Elijah nodded as he got onto his car.
"See you soon." Fleur hung up.
Elijah sighed, starting his drive to the office.
"Elijah's on his way, don't worry." Fleur turned to the others.
"He sleep in again?" Morgan chuckled.
"Reid didn't wake him up." She nodded.
"I thought he'd be okay." Reid sighed.
"He's okay now. Don't worry." Fleur assured him.
"You told him not to speed, right?" Emily walked over.
"...Totally." Fleur sat down.
"He'll be arrested before he gets here." Morgan shook his head.
"I hope not. I used my last paycheck on some books." Reid sighed,"What's on the news?"
"Let me see." JJ hummed, switching on the TV.
Colarado PD, a serial killer called Benjamin Ganet was going on stand to appeal his sentence. He was on a life sentence but believed he should be free.
"And... Elijah Deans breaks a new record for arriving quickly to work." Elijah hummed as he walked in.
"Morning." Reid smiled.
"What's on?" Elijah gestured to the TV as he sat down.
"This killer wants to appeal. Killed twelve people." Morgan shrugged.
"What-" Elijah paused as he saw the screen,"My god.."
"What?" JJ turned to him.
"I.. I remember that case. He lived on my street." Elijah leaned back in his chair.
"Jesus Christ. How was it to find out it was your neighbour?" Rossi sighed.
"He seemed so normal- I was ten, it was.. Confusing."
"Sorry you had to go through that." He shook his head.
"No- No, I'm good. I just want to make sure he stays in jail." Elijah sighed.
"You lived on his street, maybe you could help with making sure he stays there." Morgan nodded.
"We're going to look at the case?" Elijah looked up at him.
"We can. Anything to keep him in, right?" Emily shrugged.
"Yeah, yeah." Elijah nodded,"Maybe we could check with Garcia, see if she can find anything."
"I can go ahead and ask." Fleur raised from her seat.
Garcia was in her office, several pictures of kitten in costumes on her screen.
