Hi, back with another one-shot. Based on JJ now. The word that describes her as she asked Spencer and Emily (not shown in episode) in Season 10 Episode 11. Enjoy! x


"JJ!" Someone called the blonde headed FBI agent. JJ turned and smiled when she saw Spencer and Emily walking towards her.

"Emily! When did you get here?" JJ asked, giving her old friend a tight hug.

"Just a while ago. I wanted to see how you were coping after our phone call yesterday." Emily said, leading a sighing JJ and a concerned Spencer into JJ's office and shutting the door.

"JJ, we care about you and you are obviously not okay." Spencer added. "And when you're not okay, I'm not okay." He sighed and sat down next to her.

Tears started to slip down JJ's face and she angrily wiped them away.

"I need an answer." she said, looking at her two close friends. "What word describes me right now?"

"I think you already know, Jennifer." Spencer said, firmly.

Emily sat on her other side and sighed, holding her hands. "You're letting him get to you. Don't let him get to you." she begged.

JJ shook her head and lifted her hands out of Emily's before wiping her face roughly. "I'm not, I swear." she pleaded.

Emily smiled lightly. "I see it in your eyes. I had that look once. You're scared."

"Scared of what?" Spencer asked, curious to what the women were silently bonding over.

"Of him getting to you. Ruining your relationships. Your life. Look, JJ..." Emily started, taking a deep breath in and out. "You need to get over him. You need closure. Otherwise, you'll drive everyone away just like I did. Your son, Henry? He needs you and you being like this at the moment isn't exactly what that little boy needs right now. Will also needs you. Spencer needs you. Penelope needs you. Everyone needs you. And this? This little fear over a dead man? Yeah, it's not happening. I know you, JJ. Spencer knows you well as well. And you're strong. Fight this. If not for yourself, do it for your family. Your husband and son who wait for you everyday to come home to them. Don't shut them out, and don't shut us out. Stay in this beautiful reality where you are strong."

JJ was sobbing by the end of Emily's 'pep talk'. She brought her friend into a tight hug as Spencer gently rubbed her back comfortingly.

"Emily's right, JJ... We all need you and you being like this isn't good. You have our support, you don't have to suffer this alone." Spencer said as JJ moved from Emily to him, bringing him into a tight hug as well.

"I guess I needed that..." she chuckled lightly, letting go of him and wiping her face. "Thank you..."

"So, do you know the word that describes you?" Emily asked, combing her fingers through JJ's locks. The blonde nodded and sighed.

"Broken. But I won't be for long. I won't let him get to me. I promise." JJ smiled.
