It has been a slow day and it was almost quitting time. Spencer had been acting weird all day. He had been hiding the fact that he had a hurt right wrist. But anyone who read any of his paperwork could tell something was wrong. Spencer waited until 5 minutes till quitting time before knocking on Hotchner's door.
“come in” i said with a deep voice, my eyes not leaving the paperwork in front of me for second, not wanting to miss a crucial detail but at the back of my mind i knew something was wrong with Spencer, i just couldn’t pin point what it was and i thought it would be best to give you time to tell me.
It wasn't long before JJ fell asleep on Aaron's chest again. She just felt so secure and safe in Aaron's arms.
Derek felt so bad that he made Aaron cry. Although Aaron tried his best not to show his tears Derek knew he was crying. He knew Aaron's faces all too well.
Derek went back into his room took off his vest shirt pants and stopped when he was only in his boxers and socks. The bandage that was covering the wound on his side look to have fresh blood on it.
He walked back into the room and sit down on the bed right next to Aaron and JJ but far enough away to where he wasn't touching anyone.
Derek places his head in his hands and lets out a sigh.
"Aaron listen I'm sorry I upset you and made you cry. You have to believe me that's the last thing I ever wanted to do. It's just a while back JJ came to my apartment after a bad date. She had bruises all over her face and I made her a promise that I would always protect her like a big brother protects his little sister." Derek said softly is head still buried in his hands.

“Derek it wasn't you that made me upset or made me cry, I just have been in this situation before and it reminded me of what happened and I guess I just haven't gotten over it yet, don’t blame yourself for what happened to JJ there was nothing none of us could have done, You do always protect her like a big brother and she loves you for that, you can’t keep blaming yourself for every bad thing that happens, its a dark road to go down baby and I just want to keep you happy and safe that’s all! I love you and you could never upset me” I reply holding my hand out for him to take from me.Â
“can you grab the first aid kit please, I need to sort your wound out again” I say softly pointing to the fresh blood on the bandage.Â
JJ was awake now but she didn't move from her spot she watched Derek pouting a little she tried to stay really still so Derek would think she was asleep.
When Aaron held out his hand Derek took it in his hurt right hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. Derek knuckles had quit bleeding but they were still swelled and had cuts that look pretty deep but not deep enough for stitches. He was leaving them are for now and would bandage him later that was a result of him punching the wall.
Derek gave Aaron's hand to kiss before leaving to go and get the first aid kit. The bleeding started to pick up a little bit. Derek didn't know it but when he put his vest and shirt on eater a few stitches.
"Aaron we love you you know that right? We're always here for you when you need to talk you just need to open up to us." JJ whispers kissing his a ear.
"I love you and Derek so much. Thank you so much for always being here for me I try to be here for you guys too." JJ whispered softly.
@assahotchner
“i know you guys do it’s just hard for me to open up sometimes but i promise i’ll try harder! come here beautiful boy and let’s get these wounds cleaned and bandaged” i say smiling softly trying to lighten the mood in the room a little
JJ made little whimpering noises and held onto his shirt cutely and tightly pouting. JJ didn't want to let go of him at all she didn't want to move.
Derek who was in the other room left the door open so he can hear what was going on he walked back into the room with the first aid kit.
Derek sit down on the bed and unwrapped his side laying the ace bandages on the bed. Derek thought that he may be tore out a stitch or two. But the whole wound was reopened and a little bit bigger now it show a little bit of one of his ribs. Derek was just now feeling the pain because he was calming down.
"Aaron I'm sorry. It's not that bad is it?" Derek asked as he looked at the bandage that had a good amount of blood on it.
