Little Agent Gideon

chapter thirteen

ALENA'S POV

Me and Morgan raced to Reid's apartment. I could practically feel the anxiety pulsing through my veins. We kicked the door down and searched half of the apartment. The strong smell of gasoline engulfed the room. I got into the living room and I met eyes with the girl that I saw in the hallway. She was still wearing the same black heavy clothing and he same black makeup only now I noticed that she had been crying. She had jet black hair to match with her black style. The black makeup was smeared all over her cheeks. I also noticed that she had more, visible cuts, fresh.

She saw me and continued to pour the gasoline, Reid was passed out on the couch. I saw many bottles of medicine beside him, I could tell that he didn't overdose or take a wrong dosage as he was still breathing. He merely looked asleep. I pointed my gun to her

"FBI. Do not move. Ma'am, what is your name?"

She had a blade in her hand, she was cutting into the flesh on her arm. Morgan ran in shortly after.

"Ma'am, please can you tell me your name?"

She whispered

"Bethany. Moore."

"Bethany, I'm Junior Agent Gideon and this is Derek Morgan."

She got a box of matches from her pocket, I stepped closer to her

"Bethany, please. Put the matches and the blade down."

She silently sobbed

"Why?"

Morgan snapped

"WHY? BECAUSE YOU ARE RISKING LIVES OF INNOCENT PEOPLE INCLUDING ONE OF OUR BEST AGENTS, OUR FAMILY. THE MAN THAT JUNIOR AGENT GIDEON WANTS TO SPEND THE REST OF HER LIFE WITH SO HOW SELFISH CAN YOU BE TO TAKE THAT AWAY FROM HER?"

The girl reached for the blade and torn into her flesh again, I stepped forward and ordered Morgan to stand back

"Hey Beth. It's ok, calm down. Agent Morgan is upset and hurt, like you. All he wants is for our friend to be safe as do I. I get your pain, you were tortured and bullied by your classmates weren't you? If you put the matches down, I promise I will take you to a place where you won't hurt anymore. You will get the help you deserve. Can you promise me that?"

Her face grew angry, the sudden angry laid across her face like a blanket. She pulled out a knife and held it to Reid's neck. He was drowsy but awake, I could tell he was nervous but his drowsiness made him unaware of the situation. Morgan pulled his gun out again as did I.

"Bethany, if you do this. There's only one way this ends, you know that."

She held the knife closer to his throat. I fired my gun, a single shot to the head. She immediately collapsed onto the gasoline soaked floor. The SWAT team ran in shortly after, I just stood there. Morgan came over to me

"Hey, she wasn't going to come down. You did the right thing."

I was silently sobbing

"I could've helped. I ran into her in the explosion and she looked troubled. I was too focused on some stupid mission."

"You were focused on saving your father's life. You are a hero Alena, don't let any Unsub give you a reason to doubt yourself. Ok?"

I nodded as he squeezed me tightly. He then pulled away and went over to help the SWAT team remove the body. I looked out of the window and saw that the whole BAU was outside. They came in and saw the girl on the floor. My dad walked over

"What happened hun?"

I didn't want to relive it by explaining but I had no choice

"The girl was about to burn Reid's apartment but me and Morgan tried to stop her. She was cutting her self and held a knife to Reid's throat. I tried to talk to her, to stop her but she wouldn't listen to me so I had to. She would've been a risk if I didn't."

A husky voice perked up from the corner of the room

"Basically she's my hero Gideon."

I looked over and saw Spencer using the last of his strength to pull himself up. I smiled, as did my dad. Slowly but surely, everyone left. I was going to go with my dad but Morgan stopped me

"Alena, go talk to that man. You both need to talk this out."

He shut the door behind him and I walked over to Spencer. He was laid on the couch, his noise slowly started to dim the colour of redness. His cough was slowly going and his temperature was decreasing. He noticed me placing a cold cloth to his head

"Thank you Ali. For everything. I didn't know I was the man you wanted to spend your life with?"

I blushed

"You were awake? You could've helped or something?!"

We both looked at each other and burst into laughter. The air between us was radiating, I could practically feel the hot air of his breath against my neck. I got closer to him

"So how are you feeling?"

"Better now you're here."

I leaned in and our lips finally resisted that urge and met. The kiss lasted for a while but not too long. Spencer pulled away after a moment

"I'm sorry I just. I don't want you getting whatever I've got."

I giggled

"Well maybe a rein check?"

He smirked

"Yeah. Definitely."

I smiled, pulling a blanket over his torso and kissing him lightly on the forehead

"Goodnight Spence."

I grabbed my gun from the counter side and I walked out

REID'S FEVER DREAM FROM HIS POV

I opened my eyes to see that I was dressed up, formally in a black velvet crush suit. I looked around and saw that my surroundings were very classy too. The colour theme was golden and silver. When I walked out of the room, I walked into a private room with a table and two seats opposite each other. I sat down in a seat and waited for whoever to come along, I was gobsmacked when I saw who came out. Alena walked out wearing a long, slimming black dress with a slit on the leg. Her brown hair flowed down to her ribs and her piercing blue eyes locked with mine. She was so gorgeous. She saw me and sat down in the seat opposite me.

"Spence, you look handsome."

I didn't know how to reply. She was just so breathtaking, her ruby red lips were just sparkling back to me and her gentle, dainty hands locked together.

"Uh uh thanks. You on the other hand look breathtaking."

She smiled, tucking a piece of hair from behind her ear. We were undercover in a restaurant, our goal was to look like normal civilians but still try and find the Unsub. She started to flirt with me

"So do you want to play a game?"

I tiled my head in confusion

"What game?"

She got up, I licked my lips as she walked over to me. She placed herself on my lap, wrapping her arm around my neck. Her hand covered my mouth, 'shhing' me. Her dominant hand grabbed my face, squishing it and pulling my face closer to hers

"Any game as long as I win."

I gave a mischievous chuckle

"I always win."

I tucked my head into her neck, kissing her. She bit her lip to stop herself from moaning. I grabbed her by the back of her neck and pulled her lips onto mine. The feeling was blissful, her grip got tighter as did mine. I closed my eyes, taking in the blissful moment.

"Spence, I love you."

I opened my eyes, sitting up straight away. I saw that I was sweating through my shirt. My heart was racing, I laid back down thinking to myself

"What the fuck."
