Chapter 1

"JJ, I am so sorry," Reid almost pleaded "I didn't know, I swear it was just one second…"

"Sorry? You are sorry?" JJ shouted, not bothering the eyes on her "I trusted you! And look what you did. Henry is in hospital because of you!"

"JJ," Will called and wrapped his hands around his wife "You have to calm down,"

Still JJ continued "How am I suppose to calm down? My son is in hospital and we don't know about his condition yet."

"JJ, stop," Morgan interrupted "Reid would never do anything to harm Henry and you know that he would risk his life to protect Henry,"

JJ began to cry louder over Will's shoulders "It was just a simple three hours. He was under your watch and you are responsible, Reid!"

Tears rolled down Reid's cheek the moment he heard the last word, she has never called him Reid.

"JJ," This time it was Hotch but Reid hold up his hand to stop his boss. "She is right, I should have been more aware, this is my fault,"

"No, Reid," Emily emerged from behind

"Guys, just stop, okay!" Will spoke loud enough for everyone to hear "Just drop it," Will finished as he took JJ with him to the corner of the waiting room

Reid took a moment to glance at JJ, his best friend. Guilt was raised up in him, he quickly turned behind and walked out of the waiting room

"Kid, where you think you are going?" Morgan runs forward and stopped in front of Reid

"JJ need some space and I want to be alone," Reid said before he pushed Morgan out of his way

"Reid, this is not your fault," Morgan whispered

"Really? Don't you get it, Morgan? I was watching over Henry, I was suppose to protect him and he got hurt because of me!"

"Reid,"

"Morgan, please. I want to be alone. Call me the minute you find out anything about Henry. Don't worry. I am going back home," Reid said before he left Morgan standing in the middle of the parking lot

"Is he going to be okay?" Garcia asked, appearing from the main door

"I don't know," Morgan squeezed Garcia's hands and walked back to the waiting room "I will have my eye on him,"

Reid has never walked this fast in his life until he found a bench in the park. Out of the blue, it started drizzling and for once Reid is grateful over the rain. At least, no one will realize the tears on his cheeks. Reid ran his fingers through his hair, this can't be happening, he thought. Henry is in hospital… because of him! Reid looked down at his shirt, some part of it is stained with Henry's blood. It started to rain like mad but Reid didn't care. Gratefully, he let the rain wash his stained shirt. It felt like hours, Reid has been sitting under the rain, his phone was soaked with water and he is damn sure, Morgan is not going to be happy about this. Reid lazily stood up and a wave of dizziness smacked his head. Slowly, he walked to his apartment, he is going to be sick, Reid is sure about that. Reid unlocked his main door and his vision started to blur. His leg gave away and he crashed onto the floor, slowly, he pushed him up to the washroom. He was shaking very badly and just when he entered his washroom, something bad happened. Using his blurred vision, he took the wrong step, slipped his leg, hit his head on the toilet bowl. Unfortunately, he used his hand to back him up, but it ends up in a much nastier way, when it hit the bathtub and Reid collapsed onto his bathroom tiles. A sharp pain kicked his hand and the side of his head. Reid sluggishly opened his eye but it becomes it wider when he saw his hand, broken. He used another hand to touch the liquid on the side of head, blood.

"Great!" Reid mumbled before he completely blacked out in his bathroom

On the other hand, Morgan was really gloomy. He has been calling Reid for the past hours but no answer. Thankfully, Reid's neighbor has called and informed him about Reid's arrival. He mentally praised himself for leaving his number with the neighbor when he first checked on Reid's apartment couple of hours ago. Morgan practically runs his way up to Reid's apartment

"Reid, open …" there was no need to complete the sentences as the door was not locked

"Reid," Morgan called again as he walked in, his hand was on his gun

Morgan almost screamed when he saw Reid on the floor "Reid!" Morgan dashed forward and checked for a pulse. He let out a sign of relief when he found one.

"Reid, can you hear me?" Morgan called again. Morgan felt devasted when he saw Reid's condition. He was soaked in water, his hand is surely broken, there was blood on the side of his head, and worse, he is developing a fever

Morgan continued to call for Reid, trying to wake him up until the paramedic move him out of Reid's way

Someone was calling his name, and it sounds so familiar. Reid felt so hard to focus, it seemed like his body has just given out. Reid left like it has been hours, again Reid tried, surprisingly this time, his eyes followed his order. He blinked a few times before his vision landed on Morgan at his bedside. Reid looked around before he called Morgan

"Morgan," His voice was raspy

"You are crazy, Reid. What the hell you were thinking?" Morgan screamed in a low voice

"Do you know that you shouldn't shout at a patient in the hospital?"

Morgan closed his mouth but they opened again "Kid, next time, I am going to kill you myself,"

"How is Henry?" Reid asked, praying for good news

"He is fine. He is not going to fall into coma like the doctor predicted earlier, he has improved a little when I checked him just now,"

Reid tried to sit against his pillow but regret his decision the moment's dizziness struck him

"Easy, young man,"Morgan walked forward and sat on the edge of the bed

"Your hand is broken," Morgan pointed towards the sling "You are lucky since the hit you took on your head is not serious but still you received ten stitches and you are having fever. You are burning up like crazy,"

"Thanks?"

"Take your rest, you need it and I have not told anyone yet, although we in the same hospital,"

"Don't tell, JJ," Reid mumbled before he falls asleep again

Morgan wrapped Reid with another blanket extra blanket, even with two blankets, he could feel Reid's body shaking.

It was almost noon and Morgan thought of checking on Henry again. He walked in Henry's room only to hear Henry's sad voice

"Is Uncle Spencer angry with me?"

"No, honey," Will comforted his son "Why would he be angry with you?"

"He told me not to jump but I did and hit my head on the table and fall down," Henry talked slowly

Suddenly, JJ's face changed. She got it all wrong, it was just an accident but she blamed him

"No, buddy. Uncle Spencer got something important to do and he will come to see you when he is free, okay?" Morgan reassured the small kid

Morgan quickly walked out the room, the others followed in a short while including JJ and Will

"So, you are satisfied now?" Morgan pointed towards JJ

"Morgan , please," JJ was crying

"Do you know that it is always easy to talk out any words but it's hard to take them back? Do you have any idea how much your words crushed him last night?"

"I am sorry,"

"Sorry?" Morgan smiled in a sarcastic way "Do you what happened to him last night?"

JJ's eyes widened but she dare not to ask any single question

"Where is Reid, Morgan?" Rossi asked

"In the hospital with a broken hand, ten stitches on his head and with fever more than 101.7,"

"What?" Almost everyone shouted "What the hell happened, Morgan?" Garcia demanded

"I don't know. I didn't ask him yet. I found him lying unconscious, soaked in water on his bathroom,"
