[Criminal Minds] The Waiting Behind

In the hot summer, the occasional breeze makes passers-by on the road smile happily, which is soon replaced by irritating stuffiness.

Michelle is sitting in the cool room now, watching the people outside the window comfortably through the huge floor-to-ceiling glass.She is queuing up at the bank, waiting to handle the business.

But... in the afternoon on weekdays, there are really few people. Michelle looked around casually, there were people sitting or standing scattered around.Suddenly, her eyes tightened, she quickly stood up awkwardly, supported her waist, and walked out urgently.

She is now in the late stages of pregnancy, only half a month away from her due date.It's not easy to move quickly! Michelle gritted her teeth, trying to maintain a steady pace, but quickly accelerated the frequency of her steps.

Seeing that the gate was about to approach, Michelle was about to reach out to touch the big hand of the gate. She was overjoyed, but was suddenly forced back a few steps by the door that was pushed open.

"Michelle, I finally found you. Hotch asked me to come and stay with you..." With a familiar voice, the visitor habitually supported her arm and walked towards the seat in the hall. Michelle was concerned about her bulky body, so she could only walk a few steps according to her strength, but anxiously held his arm, and whispered to her familiar friend, "Spencer, let's leave quickly, there are..."

Before Michelle could finish speaking, she was interrupted by a burst of gunshots.

"...robbers..." Listening to the instant commotion and screams from the crowd, she slowly uttered the last two words, and looked helplessly at Reid, who was looking at herself with apologetic expression.

It seems that he already understood that he interrupted something important just now at the door.

Now that things were like this, Michelle naturally wouldn't complain to Reid, after all he didn't know anything just now, and he just kindly wanted to help her sit down.

"Hey, the two over there, don't stand there, lie down quickly!" A fierce man's voice came from far and near.

Michelle and Reid looked at each other, raised their hands at the same time, and turned around. Michelle bet she saw the robber froze visibly when he saw her, and lingered on her stomach specifically.

It seems that he also understands that it is unrealistic for her, a pregnant woman, to lie on the ground like other customers. Michelle stared nervously at the robber, who was obviously a young man, observing his further moves, but was suddenly blocked by a tall and thin figure.

"She is due to give birth soon. If you only want money, we will be obedient and won't disturb you." She looked at the not generous shoulders in front of her, and listened to Reid's slightly trembling argument , pursing his lips, the warmth of moving poured into his heart.

Of course she knew about Reid's habit of speaking faster when he was nervous, and that was the case now.

Obviously he is not good at gunfights or close combat, not to mention that there are so many hostages in the bank now... Michelle frowned and breathed hard, stroking her aching stomach as if comforting, and silently diverted her attention.

"Who are you?" The visitor obviously didn't have a conscience yet, and he didn't seem to want to sacrifice innocent lives. He pondered for a while, and pointed the gun in his hand at Reid.

It seems that Reid's calm performance aroused the other party's suspicion.

Michelle was anxious, and didn't care about Reid's reaction, she stood up from behind him, "He is my Doctor."

She watched the masked robber glance suspiciously at Reid, looked at his somewhat weak body, and finally tilted her head, "You two go sit on the chair over there, don't move around .”

Followed by another robber, Reid whispered, "Thank you Michelle, great answer!"

She looked up and looked at the narrow smile in Reid's eyes, knowing that he was praising her pun just now, and the other was to adjust the tense atmosphere now. After all, emotions are very important for pregnant women in labor.

——Although, Reid didn't know it, she was already throbbing.

Michelle tried her best to pull a smile, feeling that she was covered in cold sweat: this kind of pain did not have intermittent periods as usual, but it hit her in waves, more like labor pains... She bit hard He pursed his lips, feeling that his body was getting colder, and almost obediently obeyed the little robber's order and sat on the chair.

The cold touch instantly brought her back to her senses, and she saw that the robbers were about to tie up Reid's hands and feet, who had been prepared by the side, and could only call out Reid's name feebly: "Spencer, I feel a little...no Wonderful..."

The low groan/groan immediately attracted the attention of the two of them. Reid turned around, but saw the most bewildering scene in his life: his friend was looking at this side with a pale face, her wet hair was sticking to her cheeks, she was clutching her stomach hard, The pain on his face could not be suppressed.

He was stunned for two seconds, until he heard the robber's sharp and high-pitched cry, "Your water broke!" He didn't react, and hurried forward.

However, Michelle keenly discovered that this short robber was a woman during the interval when she was almost fainted from the pain!She didn't even use a voice changer!

This realization made her feel a glimmer of hope. With Reid's help, she tried her best to stand up, stretched out her hand tremblingly, and held the other's hand that was not holding a gun.Then, with all the strength in his body, he looked into the other person's eyes, letting her see his sincerity and helplessness.

"Please, I need to go to the hospital right away."

Reid was also stammering at the side, and Michelle saw that the robber was already a little hesitant, and looked at her companion frequently, as if she was a little loose, but suddenly there was a siren blare.

"Damn it!" Michelle felt her eyes go dark for a moment, her body lost strength instantly, and she fell into Reid's arms.She could feel her body throbbing more painfully, she could feel something slowly flowing out of her body, she could feel Reid checking worriedly, but she was powerless to comfort the panicked big boy, but she repeatedly felt the pain in her heart. Some helplessness and hesitation.

——In this case, what should she do?

Thinking about it countless times in her heart, Michelle sadly found that she seemed to have to wait for death if she went on like this, and a feeling of despair spread throughout her heart.

This gloomy mood enveloped her, and even Reid couldn't hear what she was saying worriedly in her ear, but she felt that the other party gently put her flat on the chair, and then the sound of footsteps gradually going away .

She slowly closed her eyes, but the gentle and affectionate gaze of the man leaving her in the morning appeared in her mind, how could she just give up like this!Unwilling to let her open her eyes again, she was surprised to see Reid walking over with a little surprise, holding a pair of big scissors in his hand.

Michelle has never expected so much, and she has never studied medical knowledge.Because she understood Reid's plan almost instantly.

——He, the Doctor, is really going to become a Doctor!

Obviously seeing Michelle's unbelievable eyes, Reid pursed his lips and said very seriously, "Michelle, it's good that they let me handle this matter, you don't care about anything now, just focus on yourself. "

At this point, Michelle has no time to think about how Reid persuaded the robbers to let the two of them move freely in this corner, knowing that the police have already arrived outside.

You know, it would be nice if they were a little earlier, or a little later at all.

That was the last thought Michelle could think of before the final wave of excruciating pain came.

Unprecedented pain hit her, and Michelle was unable to think about what kind of situation she was in, so she could only instinctively follow Reid's tense command to inhale and exhale...

Baby, please be brave and come to this world safely, at least take a good look at her and Hotch.

Michelle didn't know if it was because of the thought of Hotch, but Michelle felt as if she was hallucinating, as if someone was grasping her hand tightly in a panic, and she even heard a man's familiar voice shouting in her ear.

She had never heard Hotch sound so panic-stricken, as if he was about to lose the world.

Aaron...is that you...

At the last moment of sinking into the darkness, Michelle thought she heard the loud cry of a small child.She couldn't help smiling, this loud voice was really enough to torment her.

Darkness enveloped her again.

Michelle didn't know how long she had been asleep, and when she finally opened her eyes, she found that she was in the hospital ward.

There are carefully arranged green colors everywhere, and there are pictures of cute smiling faces of children on the walls.She blinked, and her eyes fell on Hotch who was resting on the edge of her bed with closed eyes.

How long has it been since she saw him? Why are all the stubble on his face?

Seeing Hotch for the first time, this was the thought that flashed through Michelle's mind, and she couldn't help but smile with the corners of her eyes bent.

Obviously did not make any sound, Hotch, who was in a light sleep, suddenly woke up as if telepathic, and the lightning-like light shot straight over, but it softened the moment he saw it clearly, and then there was surprise and excitement ripple.

Michelle was almost stunned for a while before she realized Hotch's concerned question.

"I'm fine, there's no pain, just a little lack of strength." Michelle shook her head, signaling Hotch to feel relieved, then suddenly remembered something, grabbed his hand suddenly, her voice was panicked and then frightened, "Where's the baby?"

"Don't worry." Hotch naturally understood her mood, patted the back of her hand reassuringly, and clenched his hand tightly, "She's fine, she's healthy, and she's in the neonatal intensive care unit now."

"Her?" Michelle looked curiously at the smiling Hotch, his bearded face had a wild charm of a man when he smiled, and she couldn't help but smile too.

"Yes, she is a very beautiful girl." A cheerful female voice appeared at the door, and Michelle followed the prestige to look, and it was Emily leaning against the door frame, smiling brightly.

"To be precise, newborn babies cannot be distinguished by beauty or ugliness, because they still have the amniotic fluid in the mother's womb on their bodies, and the skin all over their bodies has not been stretched due to long-term soaking..." So quickly said academically The theory is naturally Reid standing upright on the side.

"Hey!" Emily bumped Reid hard with her arm, who was still reciting, and winked secretly at Michelle.

Michelle saw that Reid was clutching his chest and screaming in place, and knew that Emily's attack was serious.

But... Reid can be said to be her and the baby's lifesaver.

"Spencer, why are you so familiar with pregnant women giving birth?" She remembered the distrust in her heart when she saw the big scissors in Reid's hand, but now she felt that it was thanks to Reid being by her side.

She looked over curiously. No matter how well-read Reid was, he probably wouldn't read books on this subject for no reason.

Unexpectedly, Reid shook his head triumphantly, and confirmed this quite complacently: "When JJ was pregnant, I read all the books about childbirth, and I was afraid of any accidents. This time you are pregnant, I went to read it specially. 100 tricks to produce anytime, anywhere. I didn’t expect that JJ didn’t use it at the time, but you really used it here...”

100 secrets of production anytime, anywhere?Can reading this kind of book really work?

Michelle frowned, opened her mouth in disbelief, exchanged an incredible look with Emiy, swallowed all the sighs, and just sighed dryly: "Well, you are indeed a very powerful Doctor!"

Michelle watched Reid raise her head higher, shook her head amusedly, and looked at Hotch next to her.He glanced at Reid knowingly and nodded at her. Michelle settled down, and looked back at Reid who had already walked to her bed.

"Spencer, would you like to be the baby's godfather?"

To Michelle's surprise, Reid didn't agree right away, but frowned distressedly, muttering to himself, "But I'm already Henry's godfather, can I do it again... Besides, if the two children both want to Going to Yale, who am I going to help..."

Michelle rolled her eyes and said to Reid angrily, "Are you going to refuse to be my child's godfather because of this?"

"No, no, no..." Reid waved his hands in panic. This good friend's family and friends are too large, and he really can't afford to offend him. "Of course I am willing!"

He looked at Reid carefully, and the latter stood stiffly and stiffly, with an expression that wished he could swear his sincerity to the sky. Only then did Michelle relax her deliberately stiff face, and nodded to Emily, "You are her godmother!"

Emily knew about this a long time ago, so she just smiled casually and nodded.

Joyous songs and laughter kept coming from the ward. Michelle looked at Man and others who came to visit later, and then looked at Hotch sitting on the bed around her, and a great sense of happiness emerged in her heart.

Just when she couldn't help laughing, Hotch lowered his head and looked at her as if consciously, and there was the same emotion in their eyes.

Be accompanied by lovers and friends.

In fact, happiness is so simple and joyful.

This beautiful scene was reflected in the hearts of everyone present, and it was often recalled in the years to come, feeling the youth and happiness of that year.

Yes, that's what you said before, the idea of ​​having Reid as the "midwife" lol

The most versatile doctor in history has just been released. What else can he not know besides giving birth haha?

postscript:

When everyone left, Michelle leaned into Hotch's arms and asked emotionally, "I was thinking of you at the time, and you came here because you heard my call?"

In fact, it was just her deliberate teasing, and she didn't expect Hotch to answer her.

Unexpectedly, Hotch nodded solemnly, "Yes, because I felt a deep malice, so I activated the telepathy skill between husband and wife, and flew to your side."

What? Michelle jumped out of his arms, staring at the serious man with wide eyes.

The next second, he found that Hotch's eyes were full of teasing smiles, and realized that he had been tricked.

She felt herself being embraced in a familiar embrace.Familiar temperature, familiar kiss, familiar confession:

- "Fool, I love you."
