My Life
~ Coming Undone ~
Chapter 9
Looking very closely at all of the details and all of the stories one would come to the very conclusion that love was the greatest crime in the tragedy of so many broken hearts within this group of extraordinary beings! When I arrived I came to replace what had been lost for way too long, but in the truth of it all you cannot replace something that you never lost….you just simply misplaced it for the moment!
By all means I have been taught to dissect and rid one of what causes them discomfort, or make a amends with great care. However all of my training, all of my education, and all of my care could or shall I say would never cure the pain of a broken heart!
My knowledge of the infamous "Emily Prentiss" was mediocre at the best! Although I knew the name throughout my career it was totally from a different perspective as it is now. She was and is by all means a phenomenal being, with one fatal flaw she loved more for others than she did for her ownself. I use the term of love loosely when I describe this woman because what I already knew and what I learned along this short journey with my new assignment in the BAU these past few years has been that she sacrificed more than any one being should be allowed to prove how much she truly loved! Whether it had been for the victims we rallied for or simply for the friends who turned family who so dearly cherish her no matter what.
When Reid was still in prison earlier this year and Morgan came back, I learned something very intriguing amongst how the tragedy of love had truly imprisoned two people so masterfully to become complete allies for alternative means! I had came back in the office later to retrieve some files I had forgotten long after all the goodbyes of the past few days had past when I heard heated voices of a man and a woman, I guess the better of my curiosity had gotten to me as I walked closer to the stairs leading up to the round table. To say the least I had listened for a good while of what I can concur to have been a lover's quarrel mixed in with two broken hearts that had taken separate paths to save the others well being instead of just facing the truth in that no matter what they said or did, the fates would always lead them back together again!
Over the next couple of months I pondered on saying something to Emily about what I had seen and heard, I never meant to actually listen or watch them make love to each other on the very table I am sitting at this very moment! After the crash and with Emily still at home recovering, it's left us all disheveled from the lose of one colleague but the happiness for another that her and her unborn child survived thus far. I have no doubt in my mind who the father of that child is, considering he has been in town on numerous occasions before the accident and he as well as the rest of us stayed vigil at the hospital until we knew she would survive! However unlike the rest of us or should I say like it was some unspoken given that the remainder of the time she was there was only meant for Morgan and her. It made sense considering the last time just like their love had been covered in lies, so had her death!
"You have to die a few times before you actually live!"
