Little Agent Gideon

chapter twenty four

ALENA'S POV

I woke up early in the morning, I was engulfed within Spencer's arm. His head was buried in the back of my neck. I just laid there for a second, remembering the events of last night with a guilty, wide smile across my face. As I close my eyes, my phone rang loudly. It was my dad. I answered, sitting up which made Spencer wake up.

"Hey dad, is everything ok?"

"Yeah hun, we have a new case. You and Spence are needed in the bullpen in an hour."

"Ok see you soon."

I hung up the phone and saw Spencer starring at me

"Good morning."

His raspy voice in the morning was dreamy. I smiled, getting up from the bed and picking out some clothes to wear. He came up from behind me and wrapped his arms around me, into a cuddle. He knew that was a weakness. He whispered into my ear while kissing my neck

"So last night was."

"Are you waiting for my answer Spence?"

He nodded, chuckling. I pecked his cheek

"Amazing."

He smirked, blushing a bit as I walked into the bathroom and shut the door behind me. I had a quick shower, washing my hair and I hopped out, rushing around trying to be ready in time. I put on a red, plain blouse with some black trousers that flowed out at the bottom with a pair of black heels and a black blazer. I styled my hair with curls at the end as straightening got boring for me. I grabbed my go bag and got into the car with Spencer

AT THE BULLPEN

SPENCER'S POV

I walked into the bullpen with Alena, a smirk speed across my face. Morgan walked over to me with JJ, pointing at my neck

"Someone got a bit restless last night I see."

I was blushing as Alena rolled her eyes

"Morgan's just jealous because pretty boy is getting note action than Morgan's got in months."

JJ burst into laughter as Morgan started to blush

"Now that's just mean."

He walked away as I kissed Alena on the cheek. She looked confused

"What was that for?"

I replied

"Because it's only 8am in the morning and you just destroyed Morgan's ego. That is extraordinary."

She smiled and wondered off to her desk

ALENA'S POV 

I walked over to my desk and saw a file on there, looking extremely similar to another file I saw recently but I couldn't remember. I saw so many files everyday that it was hard to remember which file is which. I opened it and saw crime scene photo as well as a note. I remembered last night, opening up that other file and seeing something similar. I took out the file from my draw that I placed in there last night. I took the note from yesterday and matched it to today's note. Yesterday note read

'Winter has come, let out a cry. You better be careful, or you will be the one to die.'

A cold shiver ran through my body. I picked up the second note and read

'Dismiss my threats? That is insane. I thought you were FBI, now your loved ones will feel the pain.'

The crime scene photos were old, they were from previous crimes. I couldn't tell what killer committed the crime which was uncommon but I had to dismiss it for now. I walked into the conference room and saw everyone sat around the table. I saw in between Morgan and Spencer as JJ briefed us.

GIDEON'S POV

JJ was briefing us about a long working case and everyone took notes, I could see out the corner of my eye Alena looked unsettled. She was starring into the photos, her eyes met JJ and she freaked out. Running out of the conference room, away into my office. I was shocked like everyone else. Spencer looked worried, I walked out after her.

"JJ, continue briefing. I will be back in a moment."

JJ continued as I walked out, into my officer and closing my door.

"What is going on Alena? Talk to me."

She shook her head, silently sobbing while looking out the window.

"Alena-Rose. Look at me, now."

Her red, puffy eyes met mine

"If something's happened, a threat of some sort or something in the past, I need to know what happened."

She took a deep breath and dove into a monologue

"One day it was snowing, I was at my friend Jessica's house with her mother and father. We were playing outside when I was 12 but the mother and father went inside for a while, when they didn't come out Jessica got suspicious so she went in to find them. After two or three hours no one came outside. I walked inside and saw Jessica's mother and father lying on the floor. I ran into the other room and saw Jessica on the floor, she had blood dripping from her face down to her neck. Her thighs were covered in red marks and she was beaten. I came face to face with the man, he had a hood on with these black eyes. He saw me and started running towards me. I ran out of the door and into the woods, I hid behind a tree and he searched everywhere. Yelling. I was so scared, I couldn't move. After I heard his truck start up and he drove away, I called 911 and I ran away. I ran home, covered in Jessica's blood."

I was shocked. I remember that day, that was the day I was meant to have Alena but Sarah was at work as was I so she went to her friends house. I even remember going to that crime scene, the bodies were so mutilated that I didn't even take a second to realise who the fault were. She continued

"I started getting these files, these anonymous files with the old crime scene photos as well as threatening notes. I tried to ignore them but seeing JJ there, she looked exactly like Jess and I don't know. I guess I freaked out."

I pulled her into a tight hug, comforting her

"Listen to me Alena, no one is going to hurt you. Ok? I will never let a single soul hurt you under my watch. I am going to put you under protection, Spencer will be your accomplice. You do not go anywhere without him, do you understand me?"

She nodded, choking back her sobs

"We will catch him, don't worry sweetheart."
