This is random and dark. They're in high school for this. I may continue, I may not.

I don't own criminal minds.

"Emily, let me in. What's wrong?" JJ pounds on my door.

I can't do this now. She needs to go. I wrap my legs in my arms and nestle my chin on my knees. I can feel my pulse, hear it even, and it makes me smile sadly.

"I'm fine, Jay, I just don't feel good," I yell to her.

Warm and red, it runs down my arms, gliding across my legs. The numbness starts in my arm, but my mind seems freed of the fog.

"Em, babe, let me in now. I'll get the key," JJ warns.

"Jennifer, just go," I beg, wishing she wasn't here, that she didn't care about me. It only makes it more painful for both of us.

"Emily, what's happening?" JJ asks, her voice rising into hysteria.

"Something that should've happened a long time ago," I whisper, letting my eyes flutter shut. My pulse is weakening and I can still feel the blood pulsing. I can hear JJ yelling, but it is very far away. I'm slowly slipping and it feels so great.
