JJ’s POV
I woke up screaming, crying and shaking. I didn’t realize that I had gripped Reid’s hand until it turned purple. I couldn’t help it, I can’t control my dreams. I felt bad, I was ruining Spence’s dream. He was so kind to me and Henry. He was rubbing soothing circles on my back avoiding my new found cut. Once I found my strength and pulled myself together.
“I’m sorry Spence.” I say still sitting down leaning on him.
“JJ it’s fine. We need to talk.” He say turning all serious.
“What is it about?” I say preparing for the worst.
“JJ I think you may have PTSD.” He says softly.
It takes me a second to digest what he said. “PTSD as in Post-traumatic stress disorder?” I ask to be sure my ears didn’t fail me.
“Yes” he answers hesitantly. I look at him in the eye.
“I don’t know Spence, I feel fine.” I answer feeling more confused.
“JJ, you’ve been having nightmares and you’ve been acting strange since.” He says.
“A part of me died in that basement.” I answer looking down avoiding eye contact feeling ashamed and vulnerable
“JJ, look at me.” Spence demands in his soft voice. “We’re gonna get through this, together. I promise. You know I don’t lie.”
“I know.” I said softly.
“I’ll be here at the end of it all because I love you, with all my heart.” He says and I lose it. I start crying and I realize how lucky I am to have him as my boyfriend he is amazing. He hugs me and lets me soak his shirt. He doesn’t care he softly kisses my forehead and that calms me down, every time. He hugs me tighter and we stay there. Just him and I in that moment for what seemed like forever.
