Feelings You Leave (HotchxReid)

Help

Hotch wakes up to his phone ringing.

"Reid, do we have another case?" Hotch asks but he can only hear yelling in the background.

"Reid, are you okay?" Hotch asks.

More yelling.

"Danger. Help."

It was Reid signalling.

Hotch put the phone on speaker and mute as he grabs his house phone.

"Hotch?" J.J. answers.

"Reid's in danger. Get the team and meet in the round table in thirty," Hotch says blunt.

"O- Okay. See you," J.J. says and Hotch hangs up.

The team meets where Hotch said to and Penelope traces the call.

"You're little noodle of a boyfriend is going to get what he deserves," Carl says. They can hear the phone shift.

"Don't hurt him, please! He didn't do anything!" Riley pleads.

"This was Reid's date he talked about earlier," Morgan says and everyone shushs him.

"It's okay, Riley. Really," Spencer says.

"No, Riley's right. C'mon, I'll get to your boyfriend later," Carl says, "I gotta say Riley, you're bedroom is pretty clean."

A door slams and Spencer cries. The phone shifts once more.

"H- Hello?" Spencer whispers.

"We're all here, Reid," Aaron says, nervous.

"Please hurry," Reid says. Muffled shouts can be heard and cries from Spencer are loud.

"Stop!" Riley screams bloody murder. Spencer flinches.

"I got the address," Penelope says and the team leaves.

"Don't worry Reid, we'll get you both," Penelope says.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Spencer shouts at Carl. He's got to make sure he doesn't hurt Riley any more than he has.

"Carl, my team are on the way," Spencer shouts.

Carl storms out of Riley's room.

"You're team? What team?" Carl asks, dragging a disheveled Riley along with him.

Bruises already forming and tears streaming his face. His shirt is ripped and you can see cuts or scratches of some sort.

"I work for the Behavior Analysis Unit of the FBI. My team has been notified and is on their way," Spencer half smiles, knowing he distracted Carl enough to leave Riley alone.

"No!" Carl says, angrily.

"Yes, Carl. It's over," Spencer says and Carl kicks Spencer in the stomach.

"Carl!" Riley yells.

"Shut up, you-" Carl is interrupted by the front door opening.

"Carl, let her go," Aaron says and Riley is grabbed and placed in front of Carl.

"Him. Let him go, you mean?" Carl says and Spencer sits up, still trying to catch his breath.

The team looks at the disheveled boy, a little younger than Reid, hiding their shocked expressions.

"Carl, you don't have to do this," Emily interjects.

"You know what this man did me and his boyfriend?" Carl yells, "He cheated on me, with him!"

"Mistakes happen," Aaron says.

"I'm guessing you're a cheater too?" Carl says, sneering at Hotch.

"No. My ex-wife cheated on me. Let him go," Hotch demands.

"Say you love him. Say it!" Carl demands Riley, "You won't get another chance."

"Riley, don't give him what he wants," Hotch tries to say to Riley he shakes his head.

"I- I love you, Spence. I'm sorry," Riley cries and Spencer cries with him.

"I love you more. Look at me, okay. Everything's going to be okay," Spencer says, eyes filling with tears, giving him a blurry image of Riley and Carl.

"You shouldn't make promises you can't keep, 'Reid,'" Carl says.

A gun fires. A body drops to the floor...

Silence.

A/N- This isn't canon, but I strongly believe Haley cheated on Hotch so that's what I'm going to say happened.
