A Bond that Can Never be Broken {A Criminal Minds Fanfic}

Carl's Back

______________MORGAN'S POINT OF VIEW___________

I stood outside of the hospital, regretting what I had said to Avery a few minutes before. I interlocked my fingers and put my hands behind my head. I let out a regretful sigh. I was facing away from the building when I heard a wheel-chair rolling on the concrete. I turned around to see a nurse pushing Avery, who was in a wheel-chair, toward me.

"Thank you."Avery said to the nurse.

"No problem."the nurse said then walked back into the building.

"Hey."she said to me.

"Hey look. I'm sorry."I explained as I squatted near the right side of her wheel-chair,"I shouldn't have snapped like that. I just got really wound up about..."Avery grabbed my T-shirt and pulled me in close, our lips were inches apart.

"Stop talking." she said. She closed the space between our lips. I felt her hand move to the back of my head. She pulled me in closer. I put my hand on the right arm-rest of her wheel chair. She stopped the pressure she was putting on my head and just looked at me. I tried to stand up when she started to roll her chair back inside. I just stood there, dumbfounded. I was so confused.

____________AVERY'S POINT OF VIEW__________

I wheeled my way back to my room with a gigantic smile on my face. I looked at JJ, who was still sitting in her recliner and eating a fruit salad.

"Why are you so happy?"she asked.

"No reason."I said as I pulled my self back to my bed.

"Avery."she said.

"Fine. I kissed him."

"Who?"

"Seriously? Who else?"I said.

"No way."JJ said.

"Would I lie about this?''

"I guess not. Watermelon?"she asked gesturing to her fruit salad.

"Don't mind if I do."I said, taking a slice of watermelon from her bowl.

*A WEEK LATER*

JJ had gone back to Quantico.I was sitting in my hospital bed with Derek in the recliner near me. It was five-thirty in the afternoon. We were watching TV when a doctor walked into the room.

"Hello Ms. Provost and Mr. Morgan. I have an update on your injuries."said the doctor.

"Great, let's hear it."I said.

"Your injuries are healing faster than I originally thought. You will be able to leave today."he said.

"Awesome."Derek said.

"Thank you Doctor."I said. He just nodded and left the room.

"I'm gonna call Hotch and tell him the good news."Derek said while standing up.

"No, let's VideoChat the team. They might be on the jet."I said. He grabbed his computer and Video-called the team.

{Hey guys.}JJ said, answering the call.

"Hey strangers."I said.

{You haven't bean gone that long Kiddo.}Rossi said.

"Feels like it. I have some good news."I said.

{Oh yeah?}Hotch said.

"Yep. Avery's doctor said she gets to leave tomorrow."Derek said. I gave him a questioning glance then returned back to the computer screen.

{Darn. I was enjoying the time without you, Morgan.} Reid said.

"Aw. I'm touched."Derek said touching his chest.

{We're happy that you will be coming back.}Hotch said.

{We gotta go. We're landing.}JJ said.

"Ok. Bye team."I said.

{Bye.}Rossi said. Derek hung up.

"So, why did you tell Hotch that I would be release tomorrow?"I asked.

"Because I have something special in store for you."Derek said as he put his computer on the couch in my room.

"What kind of special?""You'll see, now get dressed into normal clothes."he said. He stood up and looked at me.

"Shoo."I said while making a sweeping motion with my hands and standing up. He slowly walked out of the door. I grabbed my go-bag and walked into the bathroom and locked the door. I striped off the hospital robe and put on a pair of skinny jeans, a turquoise V-neck, and a blue jean jacket. I put on a pair of cowboy boots. I braided my hair to the right side. My hair fell a few inches above my belt. My hair was dark at the roots and light at the ends, making my braid look cool. I walked out of the bathroom to see Derek standing at the foot of the hospital bed. He was holding my gun holster and my badge.

"Here. Hotch said you might want these back."He said.

"Thank you." I said putting my holster on the right side of the belt and my badge in my left, back pocket.

"Shall we?" Derek said while holding out his right elbow and grabbing my go-bag with his left hand. I put my arm through his and put my hand on his bicep. 

We walked out of the hospital and to his Chevy truck. He put my go-bag in the back seat after opening the passenger door for me. He closed the door behind me and walked to the driver side. He started the engine and drove into town. We drove up to my favorite place that Derek used take me to on dates.

"No way. Its still open?"I said as he parked.

"Samurai's Sushi. Famous for it's crab salad."He said with a smile.

"Wow." I said while stepping out of the truck. I walked to the door which Derek had opened for me. We walked over to the front desk where a lady was typing on a computer.

"How may I help you?" she asked with a very strong Japanese accent.

"We have reservations."Derek said.

"What name?"the woman asked.

"Morgan."he said. The woman stood up and grabbed two menus.

"Right this way."she said.

The waitress brought Derek and I to a table near a water fountain.

"What can I get you to drink?"she asked."I'll have a Dr. Pepper."I said.

"And I'll have a Sweet Tea."Derek answered.

"Ah. Sir, Ma'am, we do not allow weapons."the waitress said gesturing to our holsters. Derek and reached into our back pockets and pulled out our badges.

"You see ma'am, we're FBI agents."I said while we showed our badges,"Would it be alright if we kept them with us?"

"Oh yes. I'm sorry. I didn't realize."the waitress said.

"That is no problem at all, ma'am."Derek said.

"I'll be right out with your drinks."she said. She walked into the back room.

"Man that felt good."I said as we put our badges away. Derek chuckled.

"Yep."Derek said. A man walked out with our drinks. I didn't need to look at him to know who he was, Derek's facial expression said it all.

"Carl Beuford?"I asked. Derek and I stood up. He immediatly pulled me behind him. I moved to the right a step so I could see Carl. Derek placed his right hand on his holster.

"Why hello Avery, Derek."Carl answered.
