Chapter 4

Authors Note: So of course I kept Emily around, did you really doubt me? But now the question is, how will things change after the shooting?

Chapter 4

"Oh my god Emily you awake" JJ cried as she rushed to her wife's bedside. She kissed the top of Emily's forehead and then sat in the chair that had become her home for the last week.

It wasn't long until Emily was asleep again due to the morphine when JJ finally called everyone, told them not to come up tonight because of the drugs but that Emily would probably be happy to see them tomorrow. Then she called her parents and told them to bring Annabelle up first thing in the morning, that little girl needed to see her mom, she had to know that she would be ok.

Although JJ thought that Emily was out of the woods she still couldn't sleep, so she laid her head on Emily's bed, and just listened to her breathing on her own until she fell asleep.

"it's a good thing I don't love you because of your looks" are the first words that JJ heard that morning.

"Your awake, oh my god Em you had me scared to death, don't you ever do that to me again." JJ exclaimed as she kissed Emily, the kiss was full of fear, love, devotion and relief.

"I'm sorry J, it wasn't my intention to get shot, but I had to protect her, you know the job. You know what we deal with, what we do. I have to say that you probably would have done it too" Emily said apologetically

JJ knew she couldn't stay mad at Emily for long after all she is the one that got shot, that was a punishment in itself. She also knew that she didn't have much time with her wife before the rest of the crew came strolling in to check on their friend. So she climbed in bed with Emily (as best she could) took Emily's hand placed it on her stomach and said say hello to your son, Emily just smiled and they laid there and fell asleep together. It was the first decent nap JJ had gotten since this whole thing had started.

Emily was awake when JJ's parents brought Annabelle up, JJ was still sleeping, cuddled up next to Emily, she tried not to stir as she got hugs from her in laws and hugs and kisses from her daughter.

"My sweet angel, I am so sorry that I scared you, I know that you are mad at me for getting hurt, but remember what I said about monsters. I was helping another little girl I hope that you can understand that. And I hope you know that you are always on my mind, you are my everything. You are my world and I would give anything to keep you safe"

"I know mommy, grandma Mary told me that you were protecting a little girl who couldn't get away from the monster, is she ok mommy, did you get rid of her monster"

"yes baby, we did"

Emily just looked at her daughter it wouldn't be long until her daughter learned what she really meant. Emily had killed people, bad people but people none the less, would she understand would she still look at her as a hero or would that image change.

"I hear that you are having a little brother, are you helping your mother with the nursery? I am glad that you were her to help her sweetie, you both are so very important to me, I'm glad that you had each other while I was hurt"

"mommy can I ask you a question?"

"of course sweetie"

"why were you on a machine and why was everyone arguing about it and does it hurt to get shot"

"that's actually three questions, the machine was to help me breathe because I was just too tired to do it by myself, and who was arguing?"

"Momma and grandma lizabeth they were arguing over your machine, grandma didn't think you needed it anymore but I think momma just wanted you to rest more then huh?"

"yea sweetie, you momma knows best right?"

"yea, you never answered my other question does it hurt to get shot"

"yea a little"

"don't lie to her, yes it hurts very much to be shot, but it does get better and your mommy is going to get better" JJ chimed in

It was just about that time that the rest of the crew started to show up they all gave their hugs and best wishes, they talked about how the case had ended, they talked about how she was feeling, about how excited she was to be having a boy. All the normal stuff that they would usually talk about, but they could see that she was getting tired. So as they all prepared to leave, she asked Derek and Garcia to stay back.

That's where I am leaving this chapter hope you liked it.
