CRIMINAL MINDS:
Summary: Before Emily joined the BAU, she had a little surprise that no-one knew; Emily has a two year old daughter.
Disclaimer: I don't own Criminal Minds. Wish I did thou.
Emily Prentiss walked into the BAU head quarters one morning feeling tired and snappy. Her mood worsened when she realised that she had vomit on her shirt, not hers of course. She hadn't had a drink in quite a long time. No, the vomit on her shirt was her daughters, Rosalie Prentiss, in the good times her angel, but through the late nights and early mornings, her little terror. Quite recently, the late nights and early mornings had become quite frequent, Emily however blamed it on herself, but every time she came home late from work, or home from work on time, her little girl was there in her princess night gown, running to her mother, throwing her arms and legs around Emily, letting Emily know that she didn't blame her. Emily smiled.
"Someone got lucky last night". Whistled her friend and one of her co workers, Derek Morgan. Emily sighed and smiled towards Derek.
"Nope, just didn't get enough sleep". Replied Emily as she placed her belongings on her desk.
"Oh, so you just did other naughty things to be tired? Nice, I like it". Replied Derek with a wink. Emily rolled her eyes and sat down at her desk.
"Who did some naughty things last night?". Asked another of their colleagues, Dr Spencer Reid.
"Prentiss". Grinned Derek, knowing full well he could make Spencer blush a few crimson colours, and that he did. Derek just laughed and threw a paper clip at Spencer's head, which instead hit their Media Liasion Jennifer Jereau.
"Crap! Derek, why'd you do that for?". Grumbled JJ. Derek just continued to laugh.
"Morgan you're such a jerk". Said Emily as she stood up and stalked towards the female bathroom, slamming the door behind her, she however didn't miss the confused looks shared between her co workers, or their superior Agent Aaron Hotchner telling them they had a case. Emily ran the cold water and splashed some on her face, she then grabbed a paper towel and dried her face. She looked up at the mirror and came face to face with herself, just someone much tired. Emily sighed and walked over to her locker and slipped out her other spare shirt and changed. She then made her way into the conference room, sitting next to her other Superior Agent David Rossi. Emily sat listening to JJ talk, putting in some points here and there, but not really listening. She just needed to see her daughter and hold her.
"Em?". Asked a voice from behind her. Emily turned around and came face to face with her boss, Hotch.
"You okay?". Asked Hotchner with a very concerned look on her face.
"Um, yeah, just not feeling too well, I think I might be coming down with something". Replied Emily wiping a hand across her face.
"How about you take the day off? I'm sure we can handle without you". Said Hotchner as he placed a hand on her shoulder.
"You sure? Thanks Hotch". Said Emily as she thanked her boss and walked out into the bullpen, grabbed her belongings, said her goodbyes and headed home, home to her little princess.
Upon arriving home, Rosalie launched herself into her mother's awaiting arms, Emily laughed, she should take days off more often.
"Jasmine, you can have the day off if you wish, I want to spend it with my daughter". Said Emily as her nanny, Jasmine smiled excitedly. She said goodbye to the little girl she has come to know as her niece and left.
"Mummy home earlwee". Giggled Rosalie as she placed her head on her mother's shoulder.
"I sure am, did you miss me?". Asked Emily as she placed her belongings on the ground that were in her other hands. Rosalie shook her head.
"You didn't huh? Well, I'm going to have to change that aren't I?". Smiled Emily as she started attacking her daughter with her tickle monster.
"No! Mummy, pwease, not the tickle monstwer". Said Rosalie with a laugh, Emily smiled and kissed her daughter on the head and stopped her tickling.
"Yes mummy I missed you". Said Rosalie as she kissed her mother on her head, Emily smiled at her daughter. Rosalie looked like Emily, the big brown eyes and brown haired bob, Emily however was glad that she was nothing like the menace of a father she had.
"Mummy?". Asked a timid voice which broke Emily out of her thoughts.
"Yes Princess?". Asked Emily as she looked down at her daughter.
"Can we go to the park?". Asked Rosalie as she gave her mother the look that made Emily give her anything. Emily laughed.
"Sure Pumpkin, how about I put Dora the Explorer on for you, while I go put on something comfortable and grab some other clothes for you?". Asked Emily as Rosalie nodded her head vigorously, Emily smiled and sat her daughter down on the lounge and turned the television on.
"Be back in a bit sweetie". Said Emily as she kissed her daughter on the forehead. Emily made her way into her bedroom and slipped out of her work clothes with a smile on her face. Emily then slipped into a pair of jeans and a light sweater, she then slipped on a pair of converse shoes and grabbed her jacket. Emily walked out into her daughter's bedroom and grabbed her pink overalls and a white long sleeved shirt to go underneath. Emily then grabbed the clothes and made her way into the lounge room to re dress her daughter. Just as they were about to leave, there was a knock on the door.
"Door. Door. Door!". Squealed Rosalie as Emily lifted Rosalie up onto her hip and walked over to the door. Emily opened the door and came face to back with the back of her friend and fellow FBI Agent, Penelope Garcia. Upon hearing the door open, Penelope turned around.
"Hey Em, JJ told me you were sick so I thought It'd bring...". said Penelope as she stopped, open mouthed and looked at the little girl in Emily's arms.
"Um Hi Em, who's this little one? Your niece?". Asked Penelope as she smiled at the girl. Rosalie then laughed.
"No siwy, she's my mummy". Giggled Rosalie as she placed her head in the crook of Emily's neck.
"Daughter?". Repeated Penelope with a whisper. Penelope looked between Emily and the little girl before finally putting the pieces together. Emily cleared her throat feeling the tension.
"Um, Pen, this is my daughter, Rosalie Prentiss, Rosie, baby, this is your Aunt Pen". Smiled Emily as she introduced the most important person in her life to one of her closest friends.
"Hi Aunt Pen". Smiled Rosalie as she held her hands out to Penelope so she could be held. Emily took the soup out of Penelope's hands and handed her Rosalie. Penelope held Rosalie in her arms and smiled, bouncing the small girl up and down.
" Um, we were thinking of heading to the park, want to join us?". Asked Emily as she smiled lightly at Penelope.
"Sure, it'd love too". Said Penelope. Emily smiled and walked inside for a few moments then came back with her bag.
They walked the few kilometres to the park right around the corner from Emily's apartment. Both of them content on hearing Rosalie babble on about her mummy the super hero and her amazing nanny Jasmine, even tho most of the time she was babbling on incoherently. When they arrived at the park, Penelope placed Rosalie on the ground and let her run and play with the other kids, whilst Penelope and Emily made their way to an empty bench and sat down. They sat in silence for awhile until Penelope had to ask the one question she needed to ask.
"Who's Rosalie's father?".
So, my new story based on Criminal Minds. I love JJ, and I love Emily, so neither of them will be leaving anytime soon. Read and Review please.
