Emily put you in the car, you sat there staring off. You thought of all the memories you had with her. Of course you were worried about Hotch, but Charisma has been your best friend since middle school.

When you got to the hospital, you ran inside. You looked for a nurse, you showed her your credentials so she'd tell you what was wrong with Charisma.

"Ma'am she's in surgery. They don't know if she's going to make it." The nurse said. You nodded, you bit your lip to keep the tears from coming out.

"Um.. Thank you." You said. She nodded, you walked into the waiting room. You sat down, Emily followed you. She held your hand, you felt numb. You wanted to cry, but you couldn't anymore.

You sat back, staring at the floor. Charisma helped you through everything, no matter what. You'd always think you were bothering her with your problems, but she made sure that you knew you weren't.

Whenever you needed help, you told Charisma and she did everything to help you. She was the first person you told, when you thought you liked girls. She was so supportive.

You couldn't hear Emily calling your name, you were so lost in your mind. You didn't pay attention to anything. All the memories played through your mind.

You didn't realize Emily let go of your hand, what you wanted was something to drink. It was most definitely alcohol. You drank your problems away, or at least tried to anyways.

You looked up, as Emily walked towards you. Along with everyone else on your team.

"Hey, Y/N. You okay?" JJ asked you. You didn't answer her. You knew they were worried, so you lied.

"I'm fine." You said. You slightly smiled, and got up. You walked outside, so you could get away from everyone. You stayed outside in the front of the hospital. Rossi followed you outside.

"You know, Y/N.. You can't keep them out. They're trying to help you, and keeping your feelings in isn't good. We're your family, and we're always here for you." He said coming up beside the wall.

You nodded, and looked down, "i know. But i don't want to open up to people. I'm fine on my own, always have been." You said.

"I know, but you have people to help you this time. You can't drink your problems away, that's not how it works.." He said.

Rossi knew about that, he was like a father to you. Considering you've never had one.

"But what if.. She doesn't make it? And i lose my best friend.." You said. He put his hand on your arm.

"You need to think of the positive, she could make it. She's going to be okay, Y/N." He said. A tear fell down your face, and he hugged you. He pulled away from the hug, and he looked at you.

"Now, go talk to Emily. She's one of your best friends, and she's very concerned for you." He said.

"Tell her to come outside, i don't want to go inside." You said. He nodded, and walked inside. You wiped the tears from your face, Emily walked out a few seconds later.

"Y/N, are you okay?" She asked in a soft tone. You turned, and looked at her. You shook your head, and she pulled you in for a hug. She kissed your forehead, and she held onto you tightly.

"I'm sorry for ignoring you, and not telling you anything. And for this morning, i'm sorry.." You said softly. She pulled back from the hug.

"Aw, it's okay. I love you, Y/N." She said. She kissed you softly. You pulled back a few seconds later, so you wouldn't get caught.

"I love you too, Em.." You said. Derek ran out to you guys.

"Good news, bad news. Hotch made it out of surgery, and he's okay. His incidents weren't as bad as Charisma's. She's not out of surgery yet.." He said all in one breath.

"Okay, thanks Derek." Emily said. He nodded, and walked inside. Emily turned around, facing you.

"Shall we go inside?" She asked. You closed your eyes for a second, then looked at her and nodded. She went to turn around, but you grabbed her wrist.

"Wait." You said. You kissed her, she smiled against your lips. You pulled back.

"Now i'm ready, let's go." You said. She nodded, and you both headed inside. You were still very scared, you honestly don't think Charisma is going to make it.

You walked inside, everyone looking at you. Rossi looked at you, and you nodded softly. He smiled slightly.

"Y/N, i'm going to hug you now. And you're going to hug me back." Garcia said. You smiled as she hugged you.

"I'm okay, guys. I promise." You said. Garcia pulled back from the hug. She smiled, and you smiled back.

You sat down, Emily next to you. She held your hand, this time you didn't zone out. You tried thinking positive.

"Y/F/N Y/L/N?" The nurse asked. You were Charisma's emergency contact.

"That's me.." You said getting up. You were very scared, and nervous.

"Okay, let's see. She made it through surgery, she's most likely to make it. All she has to do is come out of her coma, other than that she should be good. Although, it'll take her months to recover." She said.

You let go of the breath you had in, "when can i see her?" she smiled.

"Right now, again she won't be awake, but you can still go in there. She's one lucky women." She said. You nodded, and you walked to her room.

You opened the door, and you saw her laying there. You sat down next to her bed, you knew you'd be there for a long time. You wouldn't leave until she woke up.

By the end of the night, she still didn't wake up. Hotch did though, you went into his room to let him know about Charisma. He was very upset, and he wanted to see her. The nurse allowed that to happen.

He sat next to the bed, he held her hand. A few hours passed, it was 4am, you were tired. Emily had left, you told her she could leave.

Hotch was back in his room, you were alone with Charisma in the room. You paced around the room once in a while, hoping she'd wake up.

A few days have passed, you'd go home to change and shower. Emily brought you food. And Hotch was able to go home now, but he wasn't allowed to go in the field.

He would come to her room as much as you did, you were both hoping she'd wake up. You didn't sleep much, because you didn't want to miss the moment she'd wake up.

Hotch asked if you wanted coffee, Emily couldn't bring you any because she was on a case. But she was also on her way back.

You nodded, he got up and left. You sighed and sat down, you suddenly fell asleep. You were soon woken up by someone grabbing your hand.

"Y/N.. What happened?" Charisma asked. You smiled and hugged her. She laughed. Hotch then walked in with your coffee, he sat them down and ran up to her. He kissed her, you smiled.
