My new fanfic! I do have a few chapters written already so updates with be quick.

So this is set in the first season, but Rossi and Emily are there. Mainly because I just really like Emily and it is easier for me to write with Rossi instead of Gideon. And I might somehow include Will in there because I just like Will… or maybe just in a sequel

I am trying to not make it a case-fic so I will be cutting basically all of the cases down or skipping over them. NOT FEMSLASH, JUST FRIENDSHIP

I sorta changed the time of when people joined the BAU so it is kinda a AU, well a bit more than kinda. Anyway so, Hotch and Rossi have been at the BAU for the longest. Then Morgan, Emily and Garcia and then Spencer. Last one is JJ. JJ is 24, probably a really unrealistic age but it worked better with my story so… oh and jack is five. Henry isn't there… Even though I love him.


Jennifer Jareau sat in her desk, fully immersed in her daily load of case files, when her phone rang. As she looked at the caller ID, she smiled, knowing exactly who it was.

"Hey sweetie," she said answering the phone.

"Who do you has gotten JJ all happy in there," Derek Morgan asked, commenting on JJ's laughter. He was sitting in the bullpen watching the newest member of their team through her office window.

"I don't know, maybe she has a boyfriend or something. We don't really know that much about her," Emily Prentiss said. It was true, they had worked with her for eight months, and barely knew anything about her.

"Well, maybe that buttercup over there has got some loving," Penelope Garcia said. She was as bubbly as always.

The three of them glanced over at the other profiler sitting silently with them.

"Reid…?" Morgan asked the spaced out doctor who was reading a book.

"Thirty-nine seconds please," Spencer Reid said simply as he turned the pages quickly.

Thirty-nine seconds later, he finished and closed the book and looked up at them.

"I have no idea," Reid said. Morgan was about to ask him something else when Emily saw JJ leave her office and walk towards them.

"Guys," She elbowed Morgan in the arm before he could say anything that would let JJ know they were talking about her.

"Oww!" Emily just rolled her eyes.

"We got a case. Briefing room in two," JJ said. She gave them an odd look and then turned back around to go to the conference room.

"We have got a series of kidnappings and murders of girls aged two to five in Seattle, Washington. The first, four year old Abigail Mcdaniel. The second Lauren Greene, five and the last two year old Caitlin Fabian," JJ said to the group of profilers in front of her. "No signs of sexual assault, they were all killed by strangulation,"

"Could be replacing a lost child," David Rossi commented.

"If the MO stays the same, our unsub is probably going to kidnap another child in approximately 48 hours. After that, that girl only has two days before he kills her," Reid said.

"We will hit the ground running on this one. Press is big there, JJ you are going to be coming. Wheels up in twenty," Aaron Hotchner concluded.

"Detective Cross, these are SSAs Hotchner, Rossi and Prentiss. SSA Morgan and Dr. Reid are at the last crime scene," JJ said, making introductions.

The case dragged on for almost four days, they narrowly caught the guy right as he was about to murder the next little girl. The team was tired, but all in all, pleased that they caught the guy in time. Well, all except JJ who seemed to be checking her phone every two minutes. Her anxiety did not go unnoticed by the group of profilers. Everyone except for Hotch looked curious about what was going on.

Their returning flight had landed and they were walking into the BAU. Derek, Emily and Rossi were all talking.

"Does anyone know what is up with JJ?" Emily asked. It seemed like the case had been extra hard on her. Cases that revolved around children were always hard on the team, but this one seemed to beat down on JJ more than usual.

"You know, I think we should stop prying into her life. If there is something we need to know, she will tell us," Rossi said, he walked past the bullpen, where Derek, Emily and Reid stopped to Hotch's office.

"I am just curious. Aren't you Prentiss. I mean what do we know about her? She never goes out for drinks with the team, she doesn't hang out with you or Garcia. I just get this feeling like she is hiding something," Derek pressed.

"Maybe Rossi is right though," Reid said. "We probably should wait for her to tell us."

"I am kinda worried though, she has barely said a word since like yesterday, unless it was pertaining to the case," Emily replied. She watched as JJ walked passed them with her bags, to the elevator. Prentiss quickly said bye to Derek and Reid and followed her, but by the time she got to the elevator, JJ had already left. Sighing she was about to press the button when she thought better. She headed to Garcia's layer.

"Garcia, are you able to get me JJ's address?" Emily said, knowing that she wasn't going to get away that easily with a question like that.

"Um, I could, but may I ask why."

"I just think something is bothering her. I mean we all have those cases that get to us. She might be new, but she still a part of this team," Emily said.

Garcia nodded and typed something into her computer.

"Voila, I sent it to your phone."

"Thank you Garcia," Emily said.

"Tell me how it goes," Garcia said as she grabbed her bags.

"Of course Garcia. But I am surprised that you don't want to come."

"I can't I have to watch my neighbors kids. They asked me as a last resort like three hours ago and I owe them a favor. I am already running a bit late," Garcia glanced at her watch it was almost 5:30pm.

Emily pulled up outside JJ's apartment building and turned off the car. JJ probably had gotten home around half an hour ago as Emily had gone home first. She paused for a minute before grabbing her phone and keys and getting out of the car.

She took the elevator to the ninth floor and knocked on the door, softly .


So that is the first chapter. If you want me to continue the story please let me know. And R&R!
