Summary: A bad day leads you to hiding your injuries.
Day 4 hidden injury.
Damn it! Could this day get any worse, first you had spilled your coffee all over your paperwork you had spent all night completing. Next, you had gotten into multiple arguments with the main officer
on the case which caused tension between the police force and the team. Then you, Morgan and Hotch headed up to the a suspect's houses only for everyone to be separated and you had somehow gotten pinned against the wall by him. You fought against him, and at one point you were winning until he took a cheap shot at your ribs. He managed to get away and then on the drive back your vehicle was T-boned by the unsub. Hotch managed to get a few shots off at him, getting him square in the shoulder, you all watch him run away into the trees. So now you, Morgan and Hotch all stand on the side of the road stranded, waiting for backup. Luckily no one was hurt, well badly hurt.Â
~~~
You canât help but lean against the car as Hotch and Morgan discuss the unsub and his next moves. You try to focus on the discussion but you canât, there's a throbbing sensation coming from your side, sliding your hand down your side gently, you hiss sharply before intaking a deep breath. Glancing up at the boys, glad they didnât hear you, nor are they watching you. So being careful, you slowly lift the bottom of your shirt up, spotting a dark purple bruise starting to form. You definitely have broken a couple ribs, fuck no wonder this shit hurts. Pulling down your shirt again you lean against the car, closing your eyes as you take some deep breaths.Â
â(Y/l), what do you think?â Hotch turns over to you, noticing you are still leaning against the car, having not moved with them. He canât help frown, his eyebrows narrowing lightly.
âOh um, yeah I agree with you guysâ You stumble over your words just slightly, sending him a reassuring smile when you meet his concerned eyes.Â
âAlrightâ He sighs walking back over to you.
âDid Rossi say how long he will beâ Morgan groans, leaning up against the car beside you.Â
âNo, he said he would drop the others off then come straight back for usâ Hotch replies.
âWhy donât you just walk Morgan, get a headstartâ You tease him smirking tiredly.
âOh yeah yeah shorty, you go firstâ He laughs back, nudging you with his elbow. Your laughter turns to a hiss of pain, your eyes widen before you cough trying to cover it up, but too late.Â
~~~
âDid you just hiss?â Morgan straightens up, staring down at you with a confused look in his eyes.
âNo, I coughed.â You lie badly trying to move before slamming your eyes shut as pain radiates through your body.
â(Y/n)â Hotch sighs, crossing his arms as he moves to stand in front of you. âPull your shirt upâ
âWhat, right here boss?â Smirking at him as the next words slip out. â Look I'm flattered truly but Rossi could turn up anytime I donât think he needs to see such a good showâ You grin at him as you spot Morgan trying hard to muffle his chuckles.
â(Y/n) cut it out, youâre hurtâ Hotch huffs louder, his patience running low.
âI donât think you want to push him sweetheartâ Morgan chuckles as you smirk at him just as Hotch grabs the bottom of your shirt pulling it upwards.Â
â(Y/n)â Hotch mutters softly as his finger slides over it gently causing you to wince.
âJesus sweetheartâ Derek sighs, as you rest your head on his shoulder.
âIt's not the badâ You try to argue as Aaron slides his hands over your sides slowly, causing you to whine and glare in response.
âSorry, Iâm just checking it outâ Aaron quickly apologies before pulling his hands away.Â
âHow bad?â You ask groaning as the throbbing returns.
âAt least three broken ribs, if not fourâ Aaron sighs, giving you a pointed look. âDonât you ever try to hide that from us againâÂ
âSorry Hotch, It wonât happen againâ You smile weakly in apology as Derek helps you move.Â
âYou should sit downâ Derek shakes his head as he opens the back car door for you, helping you settle down before Aaron passes you some pain killers.Â
âJust relax we will get you some help soonâ Aaron smiles as you swallow down the pills and nod at him.
âThank youâ
