Prentiss was annoyed, no that was an understatement, She was in a very bad mood. It was the first day in weeks that she was able to get off work and she was looking forward to a nice relaxing dip in her hot tub and then sitting down with a bottle of wine, a good book and cuddling on the couch with Sergio, her black cat. She had just woken up, or rather was forced to get up, seeing how the phone started ringing at 7 am.
"Some much for sleeping in" Emily spat out bitterly, debating whether or not to answer the phone, she decided that she should, it could be important.
"Hello"
"Hi Em!" JJ's overly excited voice came blaring through the phone, "Garcia and I were wondering whether you were still ok with exchange Christmas presents early this year? With Will and I taking Henry to see Will's parent's for Christmas we won't be able to have our traditional family get together Christmas day"
Oh shit, thought Prentiss, only just realizing that she had yet to buy any Christmas presents.
"Yea that's fine with me" she replied, silently hoping that she would have a few days at least to go shopping, "Just let me know when and I'll be there."
"Great" replied JJ, Emily could hear the smile in her voice.
"We were thinking next Friday night, unless we get a case. The guys have said that's good for them so we're all set to go. God, I can't wait, it's Henry's first Christmas and all you guys being there will make it that much more special." Emily grinned at this, she couldn't wait to see JJ's little boy, who she had taken a great liking to since day one. He was the cutest baby ever!
"That's great JJ I can't wait either. Is there anything specific you want me to get for Henry, maybe some new clothes?"
"God no" JJ laughed, "With Garcia as Godmother we've got enough clothes for every baby in the world. Will and I are asking people to give money cause were going to set him up a trust fund for college."
"That's a brilliant idea, money it is then. That makes my life easier I can tell you that. One less present to worry about."
Still laughing JJ replied "Great Em. I've got to go now. See you at work on Monday."
As Prentiss put the phone down only one thought was going through her head.
'Great one present down only a million more to go.' She rolled her eyes. She loved Christmas, she really did, but having to buy people gifts was the hardest part about it.
Not knowing what they wanted was even harder.
