Taking a deep breath Emily speaks slowly. "I've decided I'm going to take the job offer."
"That's great love. Have you told the rest of the team?" Clyde asks as he sits down on his hotel bed.
"No not yet." The brunette whispers.
The Brit lets out a sigh, "Why did you decide to take the job?"
"I can't do this anymore." Emily replies running a hand over her stomach, avoiding the wound.
"Alright well I will have the papers ready for you, for when you get out of the hospital." Clyde says before hanging up the phone.
Putting her phone down on the bedside table Emily is finally able to go back to sleep.

Everyone is in the conference room at nine am the next morning for debriefing. All have solom grim faces just staring at each other not talking taking in the events of yesterday. JJ's eyes are red rimmed and puffy from crying last night and not getting any sleep. Morgan looks pissed that his best friend and partner was even in danger at all. Reid is trying to put all the events into nice neat statistics but comes up short. Penelope has silent tears running down her face just thinking about Emily in the hospital all beaten up. Rossi has his hands on his lap and unknown to the rest of the team holds a rosary in his hand sending silent prayers for Emily. Hotch just looks as stoic as ever studying the faces of his team sighing he begins the meeting.
"I know all of our thoughts are on Emily right now but we need to get this debrief done and I need your reports and then we can work on putting it behind us." he begins.
Morgan looks towards Hotch with a glare. "How can we even focus when Princess is in the goddamn hospital."
Hotch looks to the darker agent, "I know Morgan but we need to do these reports or we will all have Strauss on our ass." he says sympathetically.
Just then Strauss enters the conference room, "What are you all doing here? I already 'submitted' all of your reports. Go be with Emily." she says sweetly which causes the entire team to look at her as if she is crazy.
JJ doesn't need to be told twice. She jumps to her feet shouting a thank you to Strauss over her shoulder and is out the conference room heading to her office to grab her bag before heading to the elevators. The rest of the team is quick to follow, all ready to go see their favorite brunette.
Walking to her car JJ calls Will, "Hey Will. Strauss let us out early. We are heading to the hospital. Do you think you can bring Henry? I know Emily would love to see him." she says into the phone.
"Of course Cher, I will meet you there. He is dying to see his mama." Will says tiredly.
"Thanks Will see you there." JJ says hanging up pulling her car out of the parking lot and heading in the direction of the hospital.

Emily sleeps longer than usual after the night she had been having, when she wakes up Dr. Sampson is in her room and changing her bandages once again.
"How are you feeling today?" Dr. Sampson asks smiling down at her.
"Oh you know like I was beaten and shot." Emily says sarcastically.
Laughing the blonde doctor shakes her head, "You and that sarcasm, I think you made an intern cry yesterday." she says smirking.
"Sorry not sorry." Emily replies with a huge grin.
"You are quickly becoming my favorite patient." The blonde says laughing as she finishes re-wrapping the bandages.
"I don't see how. Most doctors hate me. They say I'm too intense." she says using air quotes.
Madeline shrugs, "You remind me of my wife Amelia. She's a great woman but can be stubborn as hell, especially when it comes to our son Timothy. I think our husband Greg believes we are to protective."
Emily pales at what the woman just said remembering her failed relationship with her two loves. She doesn't notice the tears that run down her face until Madeline hands her a tissue. "Sorry." Emily mutters wiping her eyes.
"It's okay, can I tell you something?" Dr. Sampson asks softly sitting on the edge of the bed.
"It's not like I can go anywhere." Emily replies.
Smiling and shaking her head the blonde looks back at Emily, "Sometimes it is better to take a step back and find yourself. Being in a Polyamorous relationship is always hard and can hurt. They do love you sweetie but they are afraid, don't completely push them away but you put you and that baby before anyone else. Do you understand me?" she asks looking Emily in the eyes.
Emily places a hand on her stomach, "But they broke up with me." she replies sadly.
"Greg and I made that mistake with Amelia when she was pregnant with Timothy. But we realized how wrong we were, and we stopped at nothing to get her back. She however put her and Timothy before us, and we understood that. You do what you need to not what others want you to do." Madeline states just as there is a knock on the door.
"Sorry to interrupt Dr. S, we have Amelia on the phone. She says Timothy is sick today and she wants to bring him in." An intern says standing in the doorway.
Rolling her eyes the blonde stands up, "Think about what I said." she directs towards Emily, "Okay take me to the phone." the Dr. Sampson says before following after her intern.

Emily lays there thinking about what her doctor said when the door is thrown open and a flash of a crayon box running toward her.
"My Gumdrop." Penelope says wrapping her arms around her injured friend.
Smiling the brunette wraps her arms around the tech analyst, "Hey Pen."
"How are you feeling? Can I get you anything? Are the doctors being nice to you? Do I need to make anyone disappear?" Garcia throws out in one breath.
"Hey slow down Baby Girl. Let the woman breathe." Morgan says walking up to his partner and best friend, "Hey Princess. How are you feeling?" he asks gently.
Shaking her head and laughing Emily moves the bed into a sitting position. "I'm fine guys, honestly and Pen has Hotch had you drug tested yet?" she teases the blonde.
"Yeah I took one last week." Garcia says then leans down to whisper in Emily's ear, "And I take pregnancy tests too."
"You're joking right?" Emily asks leaning back to stare wide eyed at the blonde.
"Oh Em. I never joke about things." the tech analyst says.
The door opens again and an excited voice is heard, "MAMA!" the little blonde boy yells rushing towards the bed.
Emily's eyes widen again as she looks toward Morgan pleadingly.
Morgan scoops up Henry in his arms, "Whoa there little man." he says looking to the little boy.
"I wants Mama! Lemmego!" Henry cries out struggling in Morgan's arms.
Just then Will and JJ appear in the doorway panting, "Buddy I told you to wait for mommy and I." Will breathes out.
"Derek, you can put him on the bed. Henry baby, you have to be careful okay?" Emily says looking at the little boy.
Morgan looks a little reluctant, "Are you sure Em?" he asks.
Emily just gives him a death glare as she runs a hand over her stomach unknowingly.
Morgan smiles and places the four year old on her bed and he immediately curls up in the crook of her arm.
"Missded you mama." Henry mumbles looking up at the brunette.
"I've missed you too baby." Emily says smiling down at the four year old and missing the looks everyone is giving her.
"Aww you two are so cute!" Garcia gushes breaking the silence in the room.
Blushing the brunette looks toward Garcia, "Thanks." she says avoiding looking at JJ and Will.
"Mama come home?" Henry asks as Emily runs her fingers through his hair.
JJ and Will both tense, as Emily's eyes widen.
Will walks over to the bed, "Buddy remember what we talked about last night?" he asks his son.
"No daddy I wants mama ta come home." Henry says tears filling his eyes.
JJ steps forward looking at the team, "Guys can we talk to Emily alone?" she asks.
"Do you want me to take the little man?" Morgan asks only to notice Emily tighten her hold on him.
Emily once again avoids looking at JJ and Will.
Hotch takes control, "Come on boys and Garcia lets go get some coffee." he says turning to the door.

Once they leave Emily continues running a hand through Henry's hair, "You wanted to talk to me?" she asks referring to Will and JJ.
Will walks up closer to the bed, "Uh how are you feeling?" he asks nervously.
Rolling her eyes the brunette finally looks at them only for the heart monitor to speed up. "I'm fine."
"Mama where dat sound comin' from?" Henry asks looking up at Emily.
JJ and Will look at each other concerned about Emily's heart monitor.
"Em, you sure you're okay? Your heart rate is a little high." JJ asks voice full of concern walking up to Emily's bed and sitting down.
The heart monitor jumps a beat causing Emily to blush, "I-I'm fine."
"Daddy why's Mama's heart beating so loud?" The little blonde asks worriedly.
Will looks down at his son, "It just means she is happy to see you Buddy." he says.
Emily continues blushing as the monitor speeds up once more when she bumps arms with JJ. "Um so can we call the others back in?" she asks nervously.
JJ looks to her favorite brunette, "So eager to get rid of us." she teases placing a hand on Emily's arm gently.
Emily's breath hitches at the touch as she looks up into sparkling ocean blue eyes, the heart monitor skipping a beat. "I-um. I what?" she asks blushing once more.
"You okay Cher?" Will ask softly sitting on the other side of Emily hand rubbing her leg gently.
Her breath hitching again the brunette completely tenses. "Hotch!" she calls out into the hall.
JJ and Will jump off the bed and the man runs in, "You okay Prentiss?" he asks worriedly.
Clearing her throat Emily looks towards her boss, "I need to talk you alone." she says softly.
"Okay." Hotch says.
When JJ nor Will move to grab Henry and leave Emily sighs and looks at Hotch.
"Uh JJ can you grab Henry and wait out with the others?" Hotch asks.
JJ reaches for Henry only for the blonde boy to tighten his hold on Emily causing her to bite lip to keep from screaming out in pain as he pushes on her bandage.
"Come on Henry. Emily needs to talk to Uncle Hotch then get some rest." JJ pries the little boy off Emily.
"No! MAMA!" Henry cries tears filling his eyes as he struggles against JJ's hold.
Emily's eyes also fill with tears as she bites down on her lip even harder, to keep from reaching for the little boy.
Will come up to take Henry, "Come on Buddy if you're good maybe you can come see Emily tomorrow." he persuades.
"Promise?" Henry asks the tears streaming down his face as his lower lip shakes.
"Of course baby." Emily says softly before they leave her and Hotch alone.
"What did you need to talk about Prentiss?" he asks concerned.
Taking a deep breath Emily looks at her soon to be former boss. "Hotch; I've decided to take the job at Interpol. I will be leaving for London this weekend." she says looking him in the eyes.
