"Elijah?" Fleur asked over the phone.
"Yes?" Elijah hummed.
"I'm picking you up, okay?" Fleur nodded.
"Of course."
"And.. I'm bringing sweet treats."
"Oh, thank you." Elijah smiled.
"Arriving in five." Fleur hummed, hanging up.
Elijah nodded and began putting his shoes on.
A few minutes later, he heard a beep from outside.
"I'm coming." Elijah grabbed his house keys as he walked out the door.
Horatio loudly meowed as he left the house. Elijah sighed as he headed towards Fleur's car and got inside.
"Right." Fleur looked at him,"We need to talk."
"Oh dear, what have I done?" Elijah sighed.
"We both.. Relived a bunch of tramua the other week."
"Yeah.. Yeah, we did."
"And I know what you did." Fleur sighed,"And I know you know what happened when I got home. But we're both okay now."
Elijah crossed his arms,"I'm sorry.. You know that, right?"
"You don't need to be." Fleur kissed his cheek,"Now, eat your croissant."
"Thank you for the croissant." Elijah smiled softly.
"Theres plenty more." Fleur assured him.
"And I'm glad."
"Ready to go?" Fleur took a croissant.
"I'm ready." Elijah nodded.
"Onwards." Fleur hummed.
*********************************
Elijah was flipping through his notebook on the jet as Reid slept beside him.
"Is he okay?" Morgan looked over.
Elijah looked over at Reid, mumbling in his sleep.
"Darling?" Elijah gently put a hand on his shoulder.
"Hm?" Reid blinked and sat up, rubbing his eyes,"Sorry I was dreaming."
"I could tell." Elijah stroked his hair.
"We found a six year old boy who had been abused and stabbed. Your baby was at the crime scene." Reid pointed to JJ,"I was trying to get him out of there.. Sorry."
"It's okay." JJ shook her head.
"You know, Reid simple dream analysis, if there's a baby in your dreams the babies actually you." Morgan pointed.
"I don't belive in dream analysis." Reid told him.
"I don't know, it makes sense. The case we're working on and the case in your dream both involve children. Maybe your subconscious is telling you what you want to sit this one out." Hotch shrugged.
"I don't." Reid insisted.
"Well maybe you're just stressed out about going home to Las Vegas. Did you tell your mom you're coming?" Fleur asked.
"Why aren't we reviewing the case file?" Reid asked.
"I don't know, maybe because someone fell asleep on the jet." Elijah gently nudged him.
"Alright. Let's start one more time from the beginning." Hotch clapped his hands.
"This is Ethan Hayes, he was five. Two weeks ago, he was abducted from his own front yard." JJ showed a picture.
