Not Crazy. {Book 1}

Chapter 29

Spencer's Pov:

"Go forth and have no fears." - X Ambassadors

"Reid you need to see this." Kate said running into the empty conference room I was in looking over the files.

"What's is it?"

"Just come on." She said shaking her head, the look in her eyes told me that it wasn't a good thing.

I got up out of the stuff chair and followed her out of the room worried.

"There's been a murder." Morgan said as I walked in.

I looked at him surprised and shocked, then at the police officers standing next to him.

"H-how? When?" I stuttered shaking my head.

"The call came in a few minutes ago." The police officer started
"But our M.E is looking over the body right now discovering time of death, and identification, it's a female but that's all we know."

"What did she look like?" I asked worried, Morgan and Kate shared the same worried look as me.

No.

It wasn't JJ.

They wouldn't kill her.

"I only got a glimpse, her face was facing the ground but she had a medium length of brown hair, if that's helpful?"

"Brown hair?"Morgan asked raising his eyebrow.

Oh god.

No they wouldn't have killed Emily or JJ.

There's no way they would.

Right?

"I want to see the body." I stated.

"I'm not sure-"

"Please." I said looking at the police officer with pleading eyes.

"Okay." He said nodding in agreement.

"Reid, you should stay here, Kate and I will go check it out. We'll let you know if it's her." He said not suing Emily's name.

"Morgan I can go." I defended myself.

"Reid, he's right." Kate said gently.

"Okay fine I'll stay. Just go." They both nodded and I watched them walk off, out the door to the M.E office.

I needed to focus on this case, that's all I needed to do right now. Focus. Just focus.

My phone jumped me out of my thoughts, I groaned as I answered it-frustrated.

"Hello?" I asked

"Hi."

"E-El?" I stuttered looking up from the ground, holding the phone closer to my ear now.

"Spencer." She said, I could hear the smile in her voice.

"I'm guessing your not calling me to catch up." My voice was now deeper

"No, unless you want to of course because we do have so much too catch up on. Right?"

"So your working with him? You really are in on this?" I asked ignoring her previous question.

It was quiet on the other end for a couple seconds, besides her breathing.

"I am." She admitted.

"Why?"

"Why not?"

"I want a serious answer. Why are you doing this? JJ is your friend, I'm your friend, Hotch is your fried, Garcia is your friend, Morgan is your friend. We were all your friend-were here for you an then you just left. So why?"

"I don't know."

"I'm going to need a better response then that. Come on El. You and I both you know, you like seeing JJ in pain? Does it excite you? Does seeing Emily in pain excite you?"

"Emily. You see I thought she was going to be a total bitch, a jerk but she's actually a really nice girl."

"What did you do to her?"

"Nothing."

"Don't lie to me." I said sternly.

"Wow you've really outgrown that old shy shell of yours haven't you?"

"Answer the fucking question."

"I didn't do anything-she just happened to get into that car accident, she just happened to loose her memory, and then she just happened to want to leave, and start remembering so I had to...we had to do some things.."

"Like what?"

"You and JJ ask the same questions. You two are so much alike, did you know that?"

"Answer me."

"It shocks me that you think I would hurt her."

"Don't fuck with me."

"You shouldn't keep using that word-it's rude."

"Oh I'm being rude? What the hell did you do to my friend?"

"She's just getting a little.... therapy that's all."

I stayed silent letting my mind wander off to the possibilities she could mean by that. Therapy?

That's when my eyes widened.

"No."

"There wasn't any other way she would listen."

"She can't take that-she's pregnant. She could loose her baby."

"If only I cared."

"You can't do that to someone-you now how wrong that is, how painful, how it can ruin someone's life forever."

"It'll make her forget who she is. It will make her remember who's in charge and who's rules she'll follow."

"Your insane. Your sick, disgusting."

"No I'm just a little curious in how the human criminals mind works. That's our job right? Getting into their minds. Thinking like them. Getting the perfect victims. Right? Correct me if I'm wrong please."

"Go to hell."

"Spence? I gotta go I have another call coming in, but uh, if I were you I'd call Morgan and Kate."

"Wh-" before I could finish asking she hung up.

I didn't take a chance, I dialed Morgan's number as quickly as I could and heard it ring.

No answer.

I dialed Kate's and it went straight to voicemail.

What was she doing? Planning?

Why weren't Morgan or Kate answering their cells?

Worry filled me quickly, were they okay?

They had to be. They weren't the real targets.

Right?
