Every Cloud
The morning sunlight filtered into the pristine bathroom illuminating a pale frame hunched over the toilet seat.
"This has gone on long enough Em' you can't call me every time you run out of saltine crackers in the morning – that's the baby daddy's job to be the slave! Em' it's been three weeks you have to tell him, you can't hide from him forever."
"But Jayje I can't tell him, I'll ruin everything."
"For crying out loud Em' you're dating the man, do you know how worried he's been lately?"
Emily sighed; admitting defeat to the internal battle that had been raging inside of her since she saw that single blue line that threatened to change her life forever. She had to tell him soon before she started to show and the team started to notice.
She and Aaron had started dating a few months after she returned, they had gotten closer after Hotch had helped her deal with the Doyle flashbacks and Emily found herself enjoying his and Jacks company more and more as the weeks went on and after one long and draining case Emily could hold it in no more she needed to tell him that she needed him like the air that she breathed and she did.
They sat in a quiet booth in the back of a bar in Mississippi each nursing a scotch on the rocks, the slight buzz she got from the lack of food and sleep had her pouring out her heart to her supervisor and much to her surprise he returned her feelings and after two dates back home they were official dating. It was against bureau rules so they kept their relationship hidden only JJ and Dave knew, JJ found out when Emily rung her sobbing tears of joy after their second date and within a day JJ had told Dave of course she would those two told each other everything, after Will had left JJ with a baby Henry, Dave had stepped up to help his friend and now here they were a year later living together and in blissful romance.
Emily had moved in with Aaron and Jack a couple of months ago but still had her apartment which she had escaped to shortly after finding out about the pregnancy. Sure she wanted kids one day and she couldn't imagine not having them with Aaron but it was too soon, he didn't know about her past yet and she wasn't sure she could carry a baby to term after the abortion when she was a teenager.
"You're right Jayje I'll talk to him today it's not fair for me to have cut myself off like that from him and Jack."
A smile ghosted across JJ's face "That's great Em' but do you mind if I go I left Dave getting Henry ready for preschool and last time I did that Henry ended up an hour late and covered head to toe in hair gel."
Emily smirked "Go I'll get ready and head into the office early to see if I can find Hotch and make arrangements for coffee or something later."
"There aren't any cases anyway as far as I know so it's a day of paperwork that means you'll have to see him before you go for him to sign off on your reports maybe then you'll be less likely to chicken out, it'll be fine I can't see Hotch being anything but happy about this. I'll see you in a bit Em'."
With a final wave JJ left the apartment and Emily hurried to get in the shower and dressed before promptly leaving for work.
7:45am hmmm plenty of time to talk before the others get in.
