Reid x Derek (Criminal Minds)

Chapter 8

~•Reid's POV•~
     We wake up and something is off. I can't tell what it is, but it looks strange, different. We take our showers and get ready. Derek has barely said a word and I try to break the silence. "So, you ready for work?" I say smiling. "Mhm." He says in an almost bored tone. I am confused and hurt, but continue on.
     We get to work and I go and talk to JJ. "Morning, how was your night?" I said, hoping for her to be normal. "It was ok." She said in the same dull voice as she walked away. I go to the one person who I know would never be like that. Garcia. I walk into her office and start to speak, but she turns around prepared to hug somebody. She looks at me and just says "Oh, its you." Suddenly a wave of pain washes over me as I realize all my friends, my boyfriend, they all hate me. "Garcia, why do you hate me?" I said in a desperate tone. "Because, Reid. You left all of us for so long. You tried to leave us permanently and we can never forgive that." She said in her regular bubbly voice. I leave her office and got back to my desk. I try not to talk to anyone, but Rossi walks over and purposely knocks something off my desk. "Rossi, why did you do that?" I say, betrayal in my voice. "Well I couldn't punish you as much I want to, but this is a little bit." He said hate filling his voice. "What did I do?" I said about to break down. "You tried to leave the team, you killed an innocent women in Mexico. Its all your fault." He said anger filling him. He stormed away and I ran to the bathroom. Tears started streaming down my face and I couldn't stop them. Derek walked in and glared at me. "Quit being a baby and go back to your desk. I'm trying to take a piss." I wiped my tears and walked back to my desk, keeping my head down.
     The day was finally over and we walked to the car. "Ugh, can't you walk home? I spend every second with you, you could use the exercise anyways." He said in a cold tone. He closed my door and drove off. I started walking home when some man bumped into me. "What where you are going!" He screamed. "Sorry." I just said back. "Oh are you angry? What are you going to do? Kill me like you killed the other lady? Like you killed all those criminals?" He said, his tone getting more intense as he went. I started running home.
     I finally got home and went to the door opening it. I saw Derek and a woman kissing. He started unbuttoning her top. "HEY! STOP IT! DEREK, WE ARE OVER! I HATE YOU!" I screamed tears streaming down my face. "Oh come on, Spencer, you knew that you were never good enough for me." He said, smiling at me and returning to kissing the girl. I ran out, walking into the alley. I was pacing back and forth trying to see how long it had been going on. I'm pulled out of my thoughts when I hear BANG BANG BANG. I run past the girl and up the stairs to see Derek, MY Derek, laying on the floor in a pool of blood. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I don't hate you, I love you. Please don't leave me." I pleaded for him not to leave me through tears. "Reid... W-wake... Up..." He faintly said, coughing up blood. "What?" I asked, confused. "Reid wake up." He said shaking me.
     My eyes jolted open, tears still streaming down my face. In the dark, I saw Derek's face. He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me in. I cried in his shoulder for what felt like hours. "You can tell me about it, but you don't have to if you don't want to." He said while rubbing my back with his thumb. I told him everything and when I got to the cheating part, hwy just pulled me in for another hug. "I would never cheat you and I love you so much." I smiled and told the rest before laying my head on his shoulder. "Can we just go back to sleep for now?" I asked, the tears slowly stopping. He laid down and I draped my arm across his body and put my head on his chest. I felt his heart beat and the movement of his chest as he was breathing. My eyelids shut and I fell into a peaceful, nightmare free sleep.
