"Reid... Reid..." I woke up and saw Morgan in front of me.
"Morgan... what time is it?" I ask him licking my lips.
"6:14. Let's get to work. I won't tell anyone you slept here." He said smiling.
I sat up and looked at Kelly. She was still asleep.
"Is that your jello cup?" Morgan asked.
"Oh what. Yeah, I gave it to her." I said.
He smiled at me. "Ok lover boy lets go.
I took one last glance at her and we left the hospital.
Kelly's POV
I opened one eye.
Loverboy?
What did he mean by that?
"Did you sleep well?" My nurse asked me.
"Yeah I feel way better," I said.
I saw the jello cup next to me and set it on the side table.
I pulled my phone out of my pocket and checked Instagram. I just thought I need to delete any social media or at least all my friends.
I unfollow and block all of my friends for their safety.
I delete my Instagram, Facebook, and Snapchat and throw my phone on the bed. I'm not prepared for the future.
I started crying. I don't know what to do with myself.
Spencer's POV
We arrived at the station and again everyone looked at me funny. I'm starting to have second thoughts that Morgan didn't tell them I spent the night at the hospital.
"Did you sleep fine Reid?" Rossi asked.
"Yup perfectly fine," I respond.
"Well, today we should investigate Kelly's house more. Reid, didn't you say you would visit her again and 'comfort' her?" Emily said while doing the finger quotations when she said comfort.
"Yeah, I did actually," I said.
"Well let's get ready then," Hotch said.
"Reid, we'll see you later don't be gone long. Be ready to come back around 10:30." Morgan said.
I nodded and hopped in my car and started driving to the hospital. Instead of going straight, I took a right to the Froyo place. I got us both vanilla frozen yogurt with lots of berries.
Then I headed to the hospital. When I got there I greeted Kelly by giving her the Froyo I got her.
"You didn't have to get me something to eat. I'm not a morning eater." She said sitting up. "And ice cream for breakfast?" She said smiling.
"It's actually frozen yogurt and one pint of vanilla ice cream has 1080 calories and 336 of those calories are from sugar while a pint of frozen yogurt is 800 calories and 352 of those calories are from sugar. So it's actually healthier by quite a bit." I explained.
Whenever I say my scientific phrases she always seems so fascinated.
"I'll take that frozen yogurt now." She said.
I smiled and set it in her lap.
Kelly's POV
I think he is crushing on me.
First, he makes me feel better with jello. Then he sleeps in the same room as me. Then his friend calls him lover boy. THEN he brings me breakfast? I have the feeling he is.
"It's not an unhealthy breakfast at least," I said taking a bite.
"You seem more talkative and energetic today. Are you feeling better?" He asked.
"Yes, I feel fine. I'm just really stressed and confused. But on the bright side, I can be released today." I said shoving a bite of raspberries in my mouth.
"That's really good! You know we can have you hang out at the office. I'm sure that will be fine. Or until we find someone to take custody of you." He said.
We were silently eating our Froyo.
"You know I don't think you ever got my name," I said.
"Oh, your Kelly. I'm in the FBI so I kinda have to know your name. But mine is Dr. Spencer Reid." He said.
The way he pronounced his name was so professional and cute.
"Ok Doctor Reid," I said.
"Oh call me Spencer." He smiled.
"Ok, Spencer I think I want to leave this hospital soon and meet your peers," I said trying to sound professional.
Spencer's POV
They said to be back before 10:30 and its 8:49. I guess I could take her back, we will just be early.
"I can sign you out if you want and then we could go to the office," I suggested.
"Ok sounds like a plan." She said.
I told her nurse I would be checking her out and she went to get her clothes.
After Kelly was done changing I saw she was wearing the clothes she had when I first met her. They were all raggedy and dirty.
"Do you want me to stop by your house and you can pack all your stuff?" I asked her.
We have an hour and a half to blow so might as well.
"Yeah." She said.
I signed her out and we walked to my car.
Kelly's POV
I don't know if I can go back there without breaking down and crying.
But before I knew it we were there parked out front.
"I'll run in," I said.
"I'll come with you." He said.
I looked at him in the eyes for a moment. "For safety reasons."
I smiled and we walked to the front door. There was caution tape everywhere.
I could already feel the tears welling up in my eyes.
We opened the door and walked upstairs.
I want to get this done quickly so I quickly grabbed my suitcases and started throwing clothes in one.
Spencer's POV
She is packing so fast.
Oh no.
What have I done?
Why did I bring her here?
She seems fine so far.
She opened the other suitcase and started putting chargers, earbuds, and makeup inside. Whenever she turned my way I could see her glazed eyes.
I don't know what to do.
I don't want to have her be halfway done packing and leave.
I looked her way and she was holding a picture.
She was crying.
No no no.
I made her cry.
I walk up behind her.
She quickly turned around and hugged me sobbing into my chest. I hugged her back.
"I'm so sorry," I whisper.
She keeps sobbing and all I can do is hug her.
