Chapter Six: Prisoner or protected?

Spencer knew something bad had happened. He could feel it. He remembered Franklin blindfolding him and taking him to his sheriffs –one was a tall blond, handsome and muscular vampire, while the other one was shorter with brown hair and was the size of a teenage boy- and then...his memory was a little hazy but he remembered Franklin getting mad at him...but why? Derek. The two sheriffs had told him about Derek, and he had...completely lost it. He had tried to calm the vampire down by telling him what he knew he wanted to hear...but it hadn't worked. And then...

What had happened after that? And why wasn't he hurting or aching? He knew Franklin had hit him a number of times...but he wasn't hurt.

"You gave him your blood?" A voice asked...he recognised it. The voice was deep but soft. Ah, it was the short dark haired vampire. The one that looked so young.

"Yes." He recognised this voice immediately...it was the one that had called himself Eric. But how did he know his name? Had the vampire told him? He didn't remember.

"Why?" The first vampire's voice was still the same, soft...but it had hurt in it too.

"He was going to die, Godric. What would we have done then?"

"You did not have to give him your blood, Eric...you know you did not. You had other options." Godric said.

He didn't understand what they were talking about. Other options? And who did Eric give his blood to? It wasn't...him, was it? No. He wouldn't have drunk vampire blood. No matter what situation he was in...would he? He knew what vampire blood could do...he knew it could heal almost any wound a human had, but it had side effects of sorts...it bound the human to the vampire, they could feel each other's emotions and it...made you dream about certain things. Though he had heard the dreams only occurred if you were attracted to the vampire whose blood you had drunk. So he had nothing to worry about.

"Drop it, Godric."

"I will not drop it. There was no reason for you to give that boy your blood...apart from the fact that you want hi-!"

Spencer wanted to open his eyes and see why the dark haired vampire had stopped talking...but he didn't want them to know he was awake. And he was pretty sure he knew what had happened...the blond one had most likely pressed his hand over the boy's mouth to shut him up. Why? He felt his body tremble slightly as he realised...the vampires knew he was awake. Of course they did, how could they not? They had super-human hearing; they would have heard the change in his breathing...the change of his heart beat.

"We will discuss this somewhere else...later." Eric told the short vampire.

He heard the door click open and then slam shut. He was starting to panic. Why was the blond staying? Why was he still here? Did Derek or Hotch know he was here? And...where was Franklin?

"I know you're awake, Spencer." Eric smirked.

Spencer swallowed deeply and opened his eyes. He looked at the blond vampire with scared and worried eyes. He watched as Eric sat down on the bed next to him.

"How do you feel?" Eric asked, softly.

Spencer's eyes wandered over Eric's face. "Fine." He said quietly...and it was mostly true, but he suddenly felt tired again.

Eric leaned over him, his hands at each side of Spencer's head. "Do not lie to me."

Spencer swallowed. "I-I'm a little tired."

"So sleep." Eric said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"I-I would like to leave...p-please." Spencer said, his chest rising and falling rapidly as his breathing deepened.

"Not yet." Eric said. "I can't let you go just yet."

"Then...at least let me phone my friend, please. Just so he knows I'm okay, please, he'll be worried about me."

"You mean Derek Morgan? Your boyfriend. Or maybe you're talking about Aaron Hotchner?" Eric grinned darkly.

So they had come asking for help. "I-I mean Derek. I just want to tell him I'm alright. Please. Wouldn't you want Godric to know if you were in my situation?" Spencer knew he shouldn't have said anything about the other vampire, he didn't know them or about their relationship...but he knew they were close. Even though he had only seen them together for a few minutes, he knew they were close, that they had a close relationship.

"What?"

"I just want to tell him I'm okay." Spencer told him, tears slipping from his eyes.

"Not that. What you said about Godric?" Eric said calmly –but Spencer could literally see the vampire was trying to hold back his anger.

Spencer took a few deep breaths before he spoke. "Godric would worry about you, if you were missing...wouldn't you want him to know you were okay, even if you couldn't go back to him straight away?"

Eric stared down at Spencer a moment before roughly grabbing his chin and pushing his head further into the pillows. "Do not try to act as though you know what Godric and I are; do you understand!"

"Yes." Spencer whimpered. "I'm sorry."

Eric let go of Spencer's chin and sat back. "I am going to let you go, just not yet. There is something I need first."

"W-what is that?"

Eric stood up from the bed and smirked down at Spencer. "You'll find out." He made his way over to the door and opened it.

"Wait!" Spencer said loudly and sat up quickly. "I'm FBI! You can't keep me prisoner here!" He didn't know where the outburst came from, he just knew he wanted to get back to Derek.

"Keep you prisoner?" Eric said and then chuckled darkly. "Oh no, little Spencer, that's not we're doing. We're protecting you. There is a –more than likely- mentally ill vampire that is obsessed with you, we are keeping him here...and are protecting you until we can get your team to come for you."

"Y-you've told them I'm here?" Spencer asked confused.

Eric's smirk darkened. "No, the lines are dead. We can't get through to them right now. But we'll keep trying, don't worry so much." He walked out of the door and said, "Get some sleep, you'll need it." Before closing the door.

Spencer wasn't sure how long he stared at the closed door before he laid back down and let the tears roll freely down his face. How had he gotten into this mess?

End of chapter 6!

Thanks for reading. I know this chap is really short and nothing really happens in it, but I couldn't write anything else in this chap -I got really stuck- so I decided to end it here and start on the next chapter.
