JJ heard the crack before she felt her head connect with the floor, she never thought that she would be in this situation. She'd always told herself that if anyone in her life tried to hurt her, that she would fight back or at least tell her team. Now here she was ten minutes after she had come home Will had her on the ground in a tremendous amount of pain, and what was worse was that this wasn't the first time. Will had been hurting her for at least three months.
At first she let it slide, he'd been going through a lot between his sister dying and her refusing to marry him for the fifth time. For the four years they had been dating, Will hadn't so much as swatted at her. Then she'd said no to another one of his fucking proposals and he had totally lost it, that night he'd beat her until she had passed out. Now it was as normal as breathing to her, she'd come home and he'd beat her until she was out cold, he made sure to stay a way from her face so her team would remain clueless towards his attacks. She was well past aware that she didn't deserve this but it was way too complicated, it had gone on for far too long now. It was much easier to endure the pain and pretend like nothing was happening, then to admit to herself and her team that she had let this happen, that she had allowed him to beat her, and that she was just as helpless and weak as one of the victims they rescued from day to day. She was always careful not to show how tired she was, or how sore, she always put on the happy blonde exterior so as not to alert her team of the damage Will was causing her.
Without even thinking about it Will let his fist connect with her face not once, not twice but three times. Shit! He was always so careful. These bruises were not going to be easy to cover up. At the very least someone was going to ask her what happened and lying to five of the most successful profilers in the country not to mention the 'all knowing' tech goddess was not going to be an easy task.
JJ let her eyes drift closed as the ringing in her ears got louder. She could feel the pain ripping through her body, especially where the knife had connected with her abdomen. Her thoughts quickly faded as she allowed the darkness to surround her, dragging her deeper down into the pit of blackness.
Emily's smile grew as she walked into the bullpen of the BAU to witness Morgan's daily routine of tormenting Reid. Derek had a huge grin plastered across his face and his eyes shone with a mischievous twinkle, where as Spencer was looking quite baffled and embarrassed.
"Well? Spill it kid, it's an easy question especially for a genius like you. Are you or aren't you?" She heard Morgan ask, all the while desperately trying to keep the laughter out of his voice.
"No Morgan, for the last time I am not a virgin!" Reid exclaimed a little too loudly as all eyes turned to him. Emily and Morgan burst into fits of uncontrolled laughter as the 'boy genius' let out an exasperated sigh. After Emily caught a much needed breath she made her way to the coffee machine and asked if the guys needed a refill.
"I'm gonna bring JJ a cup of coffee… err… another cup of coffee." Emily corrected herself, knowing that the blonde liason had probably already downed two. Emily walked through JJ's slightly open door.
"Hey jayje, I brought you…" Emily trailed off when she saw the large bruise on the media liason's forehead that she had obviously tried to cover up with make-up. "What the hell happened to you Jennifer?" The profiler demanded as she moved around the desk and pushed JJ's bangs out of the way so she could get a better look at the offending wound on her best friends head. JJ visibly tensed at her words and avoided all eye contact. Emily knew JJ hated being profiled, but she needed to figure out what happened to the stubborn, younger women sitting in front of her.
"Ummm… nothing, I just bumped my head on my car door." JJ dismissed lazily, but Emily could see the nervousness build up in those piercing blue eyes. "I, uh have some case files for you, one sec just let me grab them." Emily was about to let her previous interrogation slide, until she saw the bump on the back of the blondes head as she leant over to get some case files. She grabbed JJ's arm to spin her around but not before noticing her wince in pain. Emily was starting to get really worried about her friend's physical state.
"That's a bunch of bullshit Jen and you know it. So lets try this again, what happened to you?" Emily forced eye contact with JJ. She could see the pain building in her eyes and couldn't decide if it was emotional or physical.
"I-I can't," JJ started to speak but she couldn't help stuttering. She hated looking weak, but it wasn't so bad in front of Emily she just didn't want to bring her into this. "Look Em, I c-can't talk about this now I have to distribute these files." She knew it was a lame excuse but she needed to compose herself. Emily studied her face cautiously before removing her hand from its place on JJ's forehead.
"Fine but I'm not leaving until I get an explanation to why it looks like you've been brutally attacked. So you go distribute those files and I'm gonna wait here." Emily stated firmly, not willing to let this one slide.
JJ gave Emily a pained look but nodded her head in agreement and left her office. Emily took the alone time to brace herself for the on-coming information; she had a gut feeling that she wasn't going to like it. She was pulled out of her thoughts when JJ's phone rang, she answered it but before she had a chance to announce to the caller who he was speaking with, Will's yells filled the room.
"You little dyke! Did you think I wouldn't find out? I read all of your fucking e-mails to that bitch of a computer tech! Really, Emily Prentiss? You're in love with that whore Emily Prentiss?"
