Chapter 10!
Author's Note: Yay almost through with this chapter! So glad I don't have writer's block anymore. Oh yeah and in this chapter there may be a visit from a one Elizabeth Prentiss. MAYBE! If you want to know read it!

**JJ'S POV**

…

"ow, ow okay. Maybe this isn't going to work out so well." Emily was on top of me and just a note to self. Never try and have sex, in a hospital bed, while you and your partner are hurt. Not fun.

"Yeah, my collar bone, I forgot." I said pushing the nurse button. I seriously needed more pain killers.

"I didn't even know about that! Why did you tell me?"

"As I said I forgot. But I wish it never happened. I missed you." I said kissing Emily lightly on the lips.

Emily sat back down in the wheelchair that she was sitting in before. And the nurse came in with a small paper white cup and a class of water.

I took my pills and instantly fell asleep. I don't know if I was dreaming or if I could somehow hear everyone coming in and out of my room and the conversations they were having.

First I heard Morgan enter. "Hey Em, how is she doing?"

"Good I think I hurt her a little bit though." Emily said as I felt her stroke my hair.

"What were you two doing?" he said in a high octave then he usually talked in.

"Nothing," Emily stated. "Derek really nothing, I told you I hurt her collar bone more."

"Alright, Princess. I believe you. How have you been feeling lately? That was a nasty cut he gave you there."

"It hurts really bad. Even if I just touch it lightly, I get this searing pain shoot up my arm. They said the cast is unnecessary though. The doctor is taking it off tomorrow morning."

"That's too bad, you won't get to see the beautiful artwork I made on the cast." He said pointing to the "get well soon" graffiti he had done.

"Ooh, little Derek is sad his art is going to get thrown away." Emily said making puppy dog face at him.

"Ha-ha very funny." He looked at his watch. "Well I guess I should send Strauss in here. She wanted to see how JJ was…and talk to you." He said giving Emily a hug, me a kiss on the forehead then leaving.

Even in my sleep I felt the room tense, and I felt Emily squeeze my hand a little bit tighter.

By now everyone in the BAU knew about our relationship. Strauss was bound to find out eventually, and I know she had now.

"Agent Prentiss, how are you feeling?" I heard her ask, sitting down in the leather chair on the other side of me. Making it squeak.

"I'm doing well, ma'am. Thank you."

"And how is Agent Jareau been feeling. I understand you have been in here since after you got your stiches?"

"Yes I have, and she is doing okay. He collar bone was bothering her so the nurse gave her a sleep aid and pain killers." Sleep Aid that's why I fell asleep! Ha!

"Oh, I see." She looked at me then to Emily. "So, when did this," she gestured to both of us, "start?"

"I don't know the exact date, ma'am. Sorry." Emily said as sarcasm filled he voice.

"I- I"

"No let me talk. I don't see the problem with this? We have been adults the past 5 months that we have been together. You didn't know about it until today, when Agent Hotchner told you! So if it hasn't interfered with solving cases now, what would make that change?" Emily almost screamed.

"It is against the rules, Agent Prentiss!" Strauss said screaming.

"Well I don't know what to tell you. We are still together. So if you think the BAU needs to lose two of the best agents they have ever had, then that's on your shoulders." Emily said, "I'm done with this conversation."

"I am too. I think I've made my decision." She said exiting.

I heard Emily let out a breath that I didn't know she had been holding.

As the night went on and more people came in and out I was presented with a voice that I didn't recognize.

"Knock, knock. I went to your room but they said you were in here, with Agent Jareau? Is that her?" the mystery woman said.

"Yes Mother, it's her. Why would I just be sitting by a stranger's bed?"

Mother?!

"So how long has this been going on?"

"About 5 months."

"I'm happy for you Emily. I just wanted to make sure you were feeling okay. When Jennifer wakes up tell her I hope she gets well soon."

"Wait, you came to check on me all the way from Europe?"

"No I was in the States, I was actually trying to call you for a few days, but someone told me this happened and I just wanted to see you."

"Thanks, Mother." Emily said.

Emily let go of my hand to hug her mom goodbye.

"By the way, Emily what happened to you and Brooke?"

"She- I, it just didn't work out. We are two completely different people. And I don't think we can be friends now after everything that's happened."

"Such a shame you can't work it out and be friends. Remember High-?"

"Mother! I remember high school, we were best friends. Things change."

"Alright sweetie, keep in touch." Mrs. Prentiss kissed Emily on the cheek and left.

Maybe I was dreaming. When Emily talked about her mom, she made her seem awful. Then again, I don't think I could dream Emily standing up to Strauss like that; because I could see Emily doing that for me any day.

I could actually see this working out in the long run for me and Emily. I already loved her so much for everything she had done for me. I could see a life with her.

Slowly I started to wake back up.

"Aunt Jay!" I heard Samantha scream from across the room.

"Hey honey! Give me a hug." I said engulfing my niece in a hug.

"Does this still hurt?" She said pointing at my collar bone.

"It feels much better; I actually get to leave today. You Meme and Grandpa are bringing me home!"

"Yay!" She said wrapping her arms around my neck.

"And, Auntie's friend Emily is going to help her around the house, because of her concussion." My mom said.

"She's just got her cast off and is on her way there now." My dad added in.

"She is?" I asked

They both nodded.

Well this is going to be a fun recovery.

Ending Note: I think the next chapter is going to be the last one!

Hope you liked it R&R!

XOXO,
