This is my first ever fanfiction. I don't own CM or any of the characters. This story will hopefully be updated once or twice a week.

JJ watched in distress as her husband of one year packed up his bag. "Will, can you please just…"

"JJ, I really need some time to myself right now. I need to think things through. I still love and care about you and Henry and that's why I'm not going far," the detective said caringly.

"Then stay," JJ pleaded

"Why?" Will asked "Why would I stay with someone who would pick her work over me?"

"I'm not picking work over you," JJ sighed

"Really?" Will questioned

"You knew when you met me that my job took a lot of time, but you said that didn't matter. You said that I was worth it," JJ said, tearing up.

"JJ all I want is a family," Will explained

"What do you think we are then?"

"I don't really know Jayje, but we're not a family. When was the last time all three of us sat down and had diner together? When was the last time you and I had a date night? And when was the last time…"

"I get it!" JJ cut him off.

"Like I said JJ, I just need some time," Will tried to explain.

JJ's eyes flashed with a mix of anger and hurt. "If you want to leave then leave, I'm done trying to stop you," she spat

"I'll call you tomorrow," Will said, picking up his bag. He walked out the door, but not before glancing back and JJ whose back was turned away from him.

…

JJ sat at her desk and rubbed her eyes. Since Will had left the night before she spent most of her time thinking and wondering what went wrong. She could not sleep last night because she was worried about Will ever coming back, and if he did not, what that would mean for her and Henry. What she really needed was someone to talk to, and staring at a pile of paperwork wasn't helping her sanity.

Deciding it was time for a break, JJ abandoned her pile of paperwork and headed for Garcia's office. She knew she could talk to the technical analyst about anything. JJ knocked lightly on the door before entering and was glad to see that Garcia wasn't busy.

"Hey," Garcia smiled when she saw her friend enter the room.

"Hey," JJ said taking a seat. Garcia sense something was wrong from the tired look in JJ's eyes.

"Can I just vent to you about something and then ask your advice?" JJ asked

"Of course," Penelope said, slightly taken aback. In all the years she had known her friend she had never seen her look so distressed. "You can talk to me about anything. Do you want to go get some lunch and talk?"

JJ shook her head no and slid her seat closer to her friend. She told the story of how Will wanted more kids now that they were married, and how JJ didn't think it was the right time epically with having such a time consuming job, and Will's promotion and longer hours. The couple was always fighting, and their happier moments became less and less. Then she finally told her how Will finally couldn't take it anymore and left last night.

"Oh JJ," Penelope said giving her friend a hug. For the first time it all came flooding back to JJ and she let herself cry. Penelope was saddened and worried to see her friend, who was normally so strong start to break.

"What am I supposed to do Pen?" JJ asked after she calmed herself down.

"I don't know sweetie, but you have to ask yourself if you want to try and make things work. I don't want you to be unhappy, and you deserve the best love anyone can give you."

"I just don't know how this is going to play out. He's my husband and I don't want to let him go," JJ admitted

"I know that sweetie, but sometimes you need to think of your own happiness, Henry will be okay."

JJ smiled at her friend. "Penelope Garcia you really are the best."

"I know"

Let me know what you think.
