Tobias Hankel (Part two)

Same warnings as part one but this part will have a bit more relationship stuff

Third P.O.V

Reid had been silent the entire ride back to the hotel from the hospital and stayed silent as the two made there way up to Morgan's room. Morgan had decided that no matter the younger mans protests he was staying with him, but Spencer hadn't protested at all, in fact he hadn't said a word. Morgan was worried about him but decided not to press anything until morning. It was about midnight and they were both exhausted, especially Reid. When they got to the room Spencer collapsed on a chair, eyes shut before he even got all the way down. "No pretty boy you need to take a shower, you're still covered in dirt" Morgan said in an almost amused tone, intentionally not mentioning the blood that also covered Spencer. When Spencer didn't respond, Morgan made the decision to get a bath started for him, so if necessary he could sleep while being cleaned.

When Morgan came out of the bathroom he couldn't help the pain in his chest from seeing Reid like this, looking so pale, small and beaten. He leaned down slightly shaking the sleeping figure "Hey come on baby boy, bath and then you can go to bed, come on, please Spencer". Eventual the exhausted genius silently stood up using Derek for support. The two made their way to the bathroom and Spencer unbuttoned then discarded his shirt. Normally seeing Reid without a shirt would have made Morgan's heart race in his chest and it still did but this time for a different reason. Reid was covered in bruises and blood and looked even worse then he did in the torn up shirt. Of course he still looked beautiful to Derek but the sight of him being so injured made Morgan's eyes fill with tears and it took him a minute to regain his composure. "Spencer" Morgan said softly "are you comfortable with getting undressed and letting me help you bathe?" Derek didn't want to do anything to make Reid uncomfortable but Reid looked him in the eyes and he said the first word he had in a while "please" his voice came out coarse and weak but Derek understood. It was unusual for Spencer to be this quiet and Morgan was starting to wonder how long it would be before his friend was back to normal.

Morgan helped the smaller man lower himself into the tub and once he was in the warm water his eyes drifted between open and close. "Its okay baby" Morgan whispered "you can sleep if you want". Morgan kneeled down on the outside of the tub, like you would to bathe a child. He slowly took a cup and began rinsing Spencers hair. Derek loved Spencers hair, long straight, and soft. Derek figured he could spend his entire life just running his hands through that hair and he would be completely happy. He slowly and gently began washing the sleeping man's hair using the shampoo the hotel supplied which smelled surprisingly good. A smile came onto to Morgan's face as he remembered something Spencer once told him about in older times, some cultures considered washing someone else's hair the highest form of love and respect you could show them. Derek thought that applied to this situation as he continued to run his hands through Reid's hair, he had never been this in love before and knew he would do whatever it took to make his pretty boy happy, hopefully for the rest of his life. Derek lost himself in the thought of what a future with Reid would be like, smiling to himself, and was surprised when he zoned back in that Spencer's eyes were open and looking at him. But, Spencer still did not say a word just sat up a little more to give Derek better access as the older man began to wash his shoulders with a washcloth. He gently ran it across Spencers shoulders, up and down his back, on his stomach, and arms. He was moving slowly in order not to press into Spencer's injuries and to relish in this loving, tender moment happening between them. Derek hesitated when he got to lower parts of Spencer's body but decided to ignore the slight awkwardness and cleaned Spencer until he was completely free of the blood and dirt that had been caked onto his body.

The gentleness of Morgan moving the washcloth across Spencer's body lured the exhausted man back into the sleep he so desperately needed. As Morgan finished up and was debating whether or not to let him sleep for a bit, Reid let out a whimper and jolted awake. Neither said anything about it but it was obvious it had been a nightmare, at least the start of one, Derek presumed that is was about Tobias. Derek just ran his fingers along Spencers cheeks and jawline, comforting him. After a minute, Morgan stood and grabbed a towel for Reid and was about to hand it to him when his phone started to ring. He left Reid with the towel and a pair of his extra sweatpants, since they hadn't stopped to get Reids go-bag. Plus Morgan secretly couldn't help the thought that Spencer would look hot wearing his clothes. He left the bathroom; to give Reid some privacy and answer the call; and walked into the other section of the hotel room, standing in the small area that was supposed to be a kitchenette, and started making a cup of tea for the younger man, remembering Spencer telling him that it helped him to sleep.

Checking the caller ID, Morgan answered the phone "Hey Hotch". "How is he?" the rushed hurried tone of Hotch's voice gave away the detection of guilt in his voice. "Hotch its almost 1 in the morning" Derek responded in that serious, low voice he used often, ignoring the question. "I know I'm sorry, I just... I wanted to know he was okay, it just.... I couldn't sleep... and it was my fault...and I just need to know he's going to be okay.. I'm so sor-" Hotch's rushed rambling was cut off by Morgan " He's gonna be fine, just needs some sleep" Hotch took a relieved breath "thank God, I'll let you get some sleep, plane won't leave until afternoon we could all use to sleep in tomorrow, thank you for for taking care of him, Goodnight Morgan" "Night Hotch" Derek paused, "Hey, Hotch? it wasn't your fault man, you know that right?" Hotch didn't respond, but Morgan could hear his breathing for a second, then it went silent and Derek knew that Hotch had hung up.

Reid came out of the bathroom, wearing Derek's sweats standing near the bed. "Hey pretty boy, made this for you" Morgan handed him the tea "get some sleep I'm gonna shower then I'll join you" Reid layed down, drinking his tea and Morgan made his way into the bathroom. He took a long time in the shower reflecting on everything that had happened in the past two days, including what was going on with Spencer and him, wondering where this was going, if it was actually going to 'go' somewhere or if things were just going to go back to how they were once Spencer was feeling better. The thought of that happening made Derek's heart hurt and he was determined not to let this slide back into a friendship with both pretending they weren't in love with the other. Derek was so lost in thought he hadn't heard the bathroom door open, and when he stepped out of the shower, wrapped in towel he was surprised to see Reid in the corner leaning up against the wall, knees tucked to his chest arms around them, sleeping. He watched Reid for a minute, while getting dressed, saddened by the fact the younger man was too scared to be alone, but melting at how adorable he was sleeping like that. Leaning down he scooped Reid small figure up in his arms, not being able to help being surprised at how light he was. Carrying Spencer, Derek left the bathroom and walked towards the bed.

Derek laid Reid down on the bed as gently as possible, bending down slowly to try to keep him from waking up. Standing upright again, Morgan was about to walk to the other side of the bed but hesitated. He realized he had never told Spencer what he had wanted to tell him for so long. And maybe he didn't have to courage yet to say it when Reid was awake, but it felt safe now with the younger man sleeping. So Derek leaned back down and kissed Reid's forehead, lightly and gently before pulling his head slightly back and said, in a quiet trying not to wake Spencer up but loud enough for him to hear, voice " I love you Spencer Reid" When Spencers eyes opened, Derek almost jumped back fearing the reaction that was about to come but Spencer sat up slightly and grabbed his arm a small smile appeared on his face "I love you too Derek Morgan" he whispered, before closing his eyes again and falling back into his pillow.

Morgan got into bed beside him and debated on whether or not he should wrap his arms around Reid like he so badly wanted to. Spencer answered that question for him by rolling over and putting his head into Derek's chest, wrapping his arms around his muscled torso. Derek smiled and wrapped his arms around Reid tightly, as if trying to hold him so tightly he could keep out the nightmares that were sure to come. Derek gave Reid a kiss on top of his damp hair, letting his lips linger for longer then he probably should have and waited until Spencer's breathes had slowed to a steady even pace letting Derek know he was asleep before the older man finally allowed himself to slowly drift into sleep.

A/N Okay, okay yes this story is getting too long but I like how it is going so far so there will be one more part.
