Heya guys, I haven't totally abandoned my other story, I just thought of this whilst watching Thursday's criminal minds.
Disclaimer: I don't own criminal minds, my Ideas for stories are purely because I either think that JJ doesn't get nearly enough screen time or that I just feel like writing.
JJ sat at her desk trying to find the words, come up with some intelligible way of telling the team that she and Bill were expecting a baby, but nothing seemed to be popping into her head, no sane comment was running through there. This was big enough news even for her, but the team would go wild. After a few silent moments she came to a decision. She picked up the case files and proceeded to the briefing room.
Inside, everyone was already seated, staring at her as she entered the room
"Before we start, can I just say something?" she asked, directing the question at no one in particular
"Is it so important that it can't wait?" Hotch asked, today he was in one of his moods, the one where he is totally impatient and moody.
"Um…I…it can wait" she lowered her head, after coming up with the courage to tell the team her secret; she was shot down in a mere second. Slowly, JJ regained her composure, she handed the team their files and proceeded to fill them in on the intricate details of the pertaining case. They filed out of the room, JJ and Garcia lagging behind.
"Hey, Jayge, what's up?" Garcia asked JJ, looking rather worried
"It's nothing Garcia, as Hotch and I both agreed, it's not very important" JJ replied, looking at the expression on Garcia's face before walking faster to join the others.
The next opportunity she had to tell them was on the plane. Every one sat discussing details about the case
"What did you want to tell us JJ?" Emily asked, looking some what worried as well
"I'm p…" before JJ could finish, Reid had come up with one of his random but correct theories about the case. Before the team had even reached their location, Reid already had a rough idea of how to solve the case, and the profile of the killer.
"I'm sorry, what?" Emily asked, trying to prompt her once again
"It doesn't matter" JJ said getting up and resigning herself to one of the single seats near the front of the jet. They arrived at the police station in record time, and within the first 30 minutes of them being there, an accurate profile of the killer had already been put into circulation. JJ appealed to the press, and the team watched in awe as she showed off one of her countless talents once again.
JJ's phone wrung, drawing no only hers, but everyone else's attention
"Agent Jareau…oh excellent…we'll be there in a few, don't let him out of your sight" she put the phone down and started to rush towards the door calling to the team behind her "Local PD have found him, let's go"
The team rushed off, adrenaline pumping as each member put on a bullet proof vest as a safety precaution. They approached the scene with caution; the man had a hostage, his thick forearm wrapped around a young woman's neck, starting to cut off her oxygen circulation. The team surrounded him, tried to persuade him to let her go, but his dominant personality stopped him from doing so. He pointed a gun at the team, and before anyone could react, two shots ran out. The man dropped dead, an apparent hole in his head. The team turned as they heard a small grunt of pain from behind them. They watched as JJ fell to the floor as if in slow motion. Emily and Morgan rushed to her side, she was conscious but barely. Morgan looked her in the eyes as Emily looked at her vest, which wasn't as effective at stopping the bullet as the team had hoped. The bullet had passed through the vest, and was now lodged somewhere in JJ's stomach. She looked at Emily, a scared expression on her face as she brought a bloodied hand up.
"Emily, what about my baby?" she asked before passing out, leaving a very shocked and worried team behind.
