Thank you all for reading and reviewing the first chapter. And all I'm ganna say is poor Reid.
It is late, and I added a random funny part in this. ;P
Morgan brought his fist in and up and under Reid's rib cage, he lifted the younger man off his feet, as he did it again, as he felt Reid began to lean forward more. He was no longer pale but turning blue. "Damn it Kid, Cough it up!" People from other tables were watching and talking, the staff was standing there with their mouths open. The one with the cupcake dropped it as he watched the scene in front of him.
Garcia had gotten up reaching towards her favorite G-man, and then pulled back. She picked up a glass of water, and held it. Tears weld up in her eyes as she watched. JJ had pulled her phone out and had called for help, as she placed a hand on Garcia's arm. Hotch had gotten up, and he began to motion the people back, giving Morgan room to work, and hopefully Reid some air to breathe.
Morgan was frantic now, as his actions became more jerky and he was wide eyed and calling to Reid. Hotch knew it wasn't working as Reid's eyes rolled into the back of his head, and he slumped over in Morgan's arms. Morgan saw it and he stopped. "Reid! NO!"
Hotch moved closer and touched Morgan's arm. "Put him on the floor, now. We have to get it out."
Morgan did as ordered and went down on his knees by his buddy. Hotch opened Reid's mouth and reached his long fingers in, and down the throat. He felt something…and tried to get a grip on it. Garcia was praying, and worrying her necklace until she broke it, the beads falling unnoticed. J.J, reached for a sharp steak knife wrapped in a napkin, and held the blade out to her boss.
Hotch couldn't get his fingers on it. He reached for the bottle of wine on the table and poured it on Reid's throat, took the knife and touching the throat he went under the edam's apple three fingers down, and cut into the throat. Blood weld up, and JJ wiped it away. A gush of air bubbled up. Rossi handed Hotch a plastic straw which was inserted into the hole. One of the waiters fell over onto the table in a faint. Hotch looked up. "I can't believe I had to do that. Where are the medics?"
Morgan fell back on his knees trying to take in the scene in front of him. There lay his best friend with blood bubbles coming out of a hole in his neck. Their leader having been the cause of it, Hotch who cut open the young man without hesitation. How could he just do that? The older man was just too calm. Morgan could hear Garcia crying in the back ground as J.J spoke calming words to her. Morgan swallowed down the bile he could feel rising in the back of his throat. Only Reid would have something like this happen on his birthday. But the only thing Morgan knew was that he would take the younger man's place in a heartbeat.
The front door opened and the paramedics came running in a gurney in tow.
The female paramedic sat down next to Hotchner. "Sir, I'm ganna need you to move out of the way please." She asked him placing a blue latex, powder free, size medium gloved hand on his shoulder.
Hotch shook his head, taking his shaky ungloved bloody hand away from Reid's neck and getting to his feet. The male Paramedic motioned to Morgan to move. Morgan was still staring at Reid. Hotch took his arm and gently pulled him as he talked to him. They moved away sitting down again.
"Reid is twenty-five, he has a piece of lobster stuck in his throat. We tried the Heimlich and it didn't work, then I tried to get it out, but I couldn't reach it. I had to cut so he could breathe."
"Ok." The female took out a forcep and removed it from its packaging and handed it to her partner. He opened Reid's mouth and inserted the instrument into the throat and gently removed the meat. "We need to get him to the hospital right away. " Her partner began an IV. She began to take his vitals, and write them down. Hotch picked up his glass and swallowed the whole glass's contents down. Morgan sat there watching.. And when they began to put Reid on the stretcher Morgan got up and helped.
"I'm going to go with him."
"Are you related?" She asked Morgan, but he shook his head no. "I'm sorry sir but you can't. But you can meet us there."
Morgan looked at the female. "I'm going. That's my best friend, I watch out for him."
"Come on everyone I will drive us." JJ said as she took out her car keys. "You can ride with us Morgan."
"No! Now let's get the kid to the hospital." The paramedics nodded , gathered their equipment up and left for the ambulance. Morgan right beside the stretcher.
The rest of the team went outside to get in JJ's car. No one thought of the bill, or Garcia's jacket left of the back of one of the chairs.
My beta reader was giving me crap about how the paramedic should have on gloves and how I don't put enough detail in the story so I added this funny part. Hope it made a few of you laugh.
