What if it was Prentiss?
She was so our strength. Even on the worst days, at the worst moments she never lost her cool. Sometimes I wondered about that but then I think she did too. On the plane she would ask about the difference between us and the monsters we chase, she never seemed to understand that we thought like monsters to catch them and that was the difference.
I think Emily was searching for who she was. She was longing for a place to belong and though she had found that here I don't think she realized it. I wonder if in her last moments she thought of us, her family.
Rossi did paperwork. He told Garcia when she went to check on him that he thought Prentiss was a lot like him and that she would want him to do paperwork right now. When Garcia was leaving he asked her to shut his door and when she did she saw him wipe away a tear.
Reid sat at his desk staring at hers. He looked as if he was waiting for her. He asked me what he should do on Monday morning when she didn't come to work and I told him he should remember her for a moment and then carry in her memory. He asked me how and I wondered the same thing.
JJ sat with Will. She called Emily's mother to inform her of what had happened and the Ambassador must have taken it badly and said something to JJ because the next thing anyone knew JJ was yelling. Telling her that Emily was family to us and that we loved her for who she was and that at least Emily knew that. Will took the phone and tried to calm both women but ended up hanging up on Emily's mother.
Garcia played music in her office and tried not to let anyone see her cry. She wanted everyone to be okay but needed to figure out how herself. When she came down Reid laughed at her make-up running down her face and so did she. Then in her Garcia way she held him while whispering comfort in his ear.
Hotch sat in his office and cried. He had done what he could in New York but that was not enough I overheard him saying on the phone. When he finally came down to where the rest of us were gathered in the kitchenette his eyes were red and swollen and Rossi pulled him aside to what they thought was a private conversation but we all heard Rossi ask how long he had loved her and we all heard him say too long to have never told her.
It was odd I just watched them. Numb to it all. I just watched.
AN Two in one night that must be a record for me! If you would like the next chapter tonight please REVIEW. I am glad that so many of you are reading this but would love it if you would review, good, bad, or boring I just want your opinions. I am STILL shocked and
saddened by the finale as well as a little angry that we all have to wait so long to see what happens and who was in the car that exploded.
