A New Dream: A Spencer Reid Fanfic

Chapter 22: Cold Colorado

Corinne's POV
When we hopped on the plane and Emily, JJ, Spencer and I took out usual seats and Morgan took the couch next to us, while Hotch and Rossi sat in the seats with their backs to JJ and I. I spread out the files and pictures on the table in front of us and got up to get a coffee.  As I walked over to the machine I heard a conversation begin.

Morgan's POV
"Dude how could you have not told her in six months of a relationship? Even I knew that he's her favorite actor!" I said while slapping Spencer in the arm.

"I-I don't know. Matthew just kinda makes me doubt myself and especially because he's her favorite actor." He replied while scratching the back of his neck and turning a shade of red.

"Spence she loves you. Trust me. Just because she likes your brother's movies doesn't mean she loves you any less." JJ added. Spencer smirked and looked down at the ground. Poor kid didn't know what he was doing when it came to Corinne.

She walked back as soon as JJ finishes her sentence, holding a coffee for her and Spencer. I could tell she heard the conversation. She gave Spencer a kiss on the cheek and whispered something in his ear that made him blush before she sat down next to JJ. Emily giggled and rubbed Spencer's shoulder. I smiled and went back to looking over my case file, brainstorming ideas.

Spencer's POV
"I love you" she said after giving me a small peck on the cheek while she handed me my coffee. She had also drawn a little heart on it that matched the necklace she never took off. I blushed and went back to my folder while Emily placed a hand on my shoulder squeezing it slightly.

"So we know it's a male because of the sexual assault," Rin started, "he's probably in his late thirties to early forties to be patient enough to not kill them for some time. He most likely has a criminal record as a pedophile. He also has a preference so these girls are most likely surrogate for the girl he's trying to hurt. Maybe a girl who he had a crush on at that age who hurt him?" Corinne finished looking down at her file like nothing had happened. She had been gone for three months but it was like she's been with us for 100 years. We all just stared at her,"what!?" She asked.

"You just put the whole profile together and you've been gone for so long. " Rossi said astonished. She turned a shade of pink and smiled. But she also stuck out her chest as a sign of confidence. I loved this about her.

"Well then when we land we'll deliver the profile to the local officers and hopefully catch this guy before another girl goes missing." Hotch said. When he pulled his phone out to call Garcia and tell her to start searching for names my phone rang. It was Matthew. I answered and put it on speaker.

"He-" I was cut off by my twins frantic voice.

"Spencer she's gone! They left a note." He said breaking into tears.

"Who? Who's gone Matthew?" I said puzzled.

"Tess! They left a note saying that she has a week just like what happened to the other girls parents!" He finished the sentence, my mouth and everyone else's dropped. My niece had just been kidnapped by our unsub. Hotch heard this and asked Garcia for a list of names.

"How long has she been gone for?" I asked quickly.

"Three hours. I thought she was in we room texting her friends but when I went to check in her all I saw was some blood and the note." The last time I heard my brother this upset was when we were kids.

"Matthew," Hotch interupped," does the name Mitch Brighton sound familiar?"

"Y-yes! That's the name of the guys who runs her study group! Oh Spence when will you be here, Tess needs your help if she's going through anything like those other girls." He let out a small whimper.

"We just landed and have an address. We're getting back up and she'll be safe soon. I promise." I hoped I was right as he hung up the phone.

"Move out team!" Hotch called and we all got into the SUV's waiting for us on the landing strip.

As soon as I hopped into the big black car and all the doors were closed Morgan turned on the sirens and pulled out of the driveway with the car that Rin was driving following close behind. It was me, Rossi and Morgan in this car and the others in the one behind us. Rossi passed a bullet proof vest to me and I slipped it on over my head. Morgan had already put his on. The next thing I heard was Hotch's voice over the radio telling the local police and EMTs to meet us. We sped down the road at a speed that seemed in-humanly possible. Even though we were driving so fast it took us a long time to get to the location. It had taken about an hour and a half to get to the secluded cabin back near the woods where Mitch was dumping the girl's bodies. I just hoped that web find Tess alive and not scarred for life. She was only thirteen, how could she live a life with this always in the back of her mind? I asked myself.

When Morgan pulled up the long drive way hopped out and drew my gun. The rest of the team followed behind me. On the way here I had memorized the plans for the property and Rin had looked over them before we left so I knew that she knew where I was going. As I approached a small shed next to the house I heard a chair scraping against the floor and a muffled cry like someone was gagged. As I kicked down the door for the shed Morgan kicked down the door for the house.

"Tess!" I let out a relived yell and went to untie her hands. When I finished uniting her hands and feet I took the gag out of her mouth and she gave me a huge hug.

"Thank you uncle Spencer!" She exclaimed as she cried into my shoulder and I held her.

As I held her we heard a gunshot, a scream, which was followed by another gunshot.
