Silent Night
Summary: The team gets snowed in while in Atka, Alaska with a sick and delirious Reid, a worried Garcia halfway across the United States, and no contact to a hospital, the BAU headquarters, or anybody outside of their hotel room. After a recent exposure to anthrax, will Reid ever recover and get the help he needs? Sick-fic. Requested by Namira 0.0.
Virginia, 119 hours
Spencer unlocked and opened his apartment door and was confused when Garcia followed him in.
"You don't have to stay with me, Garcia. I'll be fine."
"I want to. So close your eyes, take a nap, and allow me to take your tastebuds on a wonderful, flavorful journey with my mother's famous homemade chicken and noodle soup," Garcia ordered cheerfully. Spencer couldn't help but smile.
"You are the best."
"I know. It's a talent."
Garcia hummed a little tune to herself as she searched Spencer's virtually bare cabinets. She knew now why the man was so skinny, he barely ate!
Garcia finished her mother's famous chicken noodle soup, but she didn't have the heart to wake up the young genius. So she found a container with a lid (one of only two she found) and poured the soup into it and then set the soup in the fridge (which was also virtually empty, much to Garcia's displeasure.)
Eventually the young genius stirred and awoke, prompting Garcia to force the warm soup into his hands happily.
"Eat up, Buttercup," she said. Spencer gave her a confused look.
"Did you just- you know what, never mind. Thank you."
"No problem, Mr. G-man," Garcia responded. Tentatively, Spencer took a small sip.
"I feel like you don't fully trust my cooking skills," Garcia observed.
"It's not that. Usually, cooking reflect's oneself, so I would assume that your cooking would be- um- slightly unpredictable," Spencer spoke carefully, clearing his throat. "But it's good. Thank you, Garcia. For everything."
"Anytime, Reid. You know that."
"I know."
"Oh, and by the way, you really need to stock up on some basic needs in the cabinets. Like chocolate, coffee, cookies, Mac 'n' Cheese..."
