Chapter 11

April

The tears were rolling down her cheek, which she hadn't noticed, he brought his hand up to her cheek and wiped them away as she pulled him into a hug which in return he pulled her closer wrapping his arms around her tight, the tears soon stopped but she stayed in his arms as she spoke "So to change the subject" she mused to get the topic moving and off the painful past for a while, sometimes it was a little too intense the emotions she felt regarding her torcher.

"I've asked JJ to marry me" she blushed as Morgan gasped and slapped her shoulder "You little vixen, you kept that quite, why didn't you tell me" he grinned before he frowned "She did say yes, didn't she?" Emily laughed, "Yes she said yes" he kissed her head softly "I am so happy for you, but I must say, you really should have told her sooner I was ready to bang your heads together," he teased as they settled into comfortable silence.

She stayed in his arms her head resting on his shoulder, like many times they had done this when they were alone and Emily was opening up to him about things that were playing on her mind, or they were watching a film, and no one out of them knew this side to their relationship he was her partner and her brother, but Morgan like his macho image and she wouldn't brake that for anything, this in their eyes was something just between them.

They had settle down into a peaceful silence watching a film Emily was now sitting curled into Morgan's protective arm he head rested on his shoulder, they were so interested on the film that they never heard the door open or close as the two walked behind them JJ and Garcia giggled slightly causing them both too jump apart and also to look very guilty

"You two looked so comfy don't let us stop you" JJ said laughing "They really make a cute couple don't they" Garcia tease the now blushing brunette "Now baby girl just" he was cut off "Oh, your macho status just disappeared" JJ teased he held his hands up to speak as the two of them teased them "Who knew Derek Morgan was a big softie" JJ smirked as Emily's eyes went wide as she spotted the bags they had hold of "Where is Sarah?" Emily asked softly "In her room she just needed sometime to herself a little overwhelmed that's all" JJ reassured her. Emily's eyes went wide as she spotted the bags they had hold of.

"Jennifer please tell me those bags aren't all yours" she said slightly warily "Well no some are Garcia's" she mused as Garcia spoke "But they are also for you, I couldn't help myself, I am going to be an auntie" she gushed out, Emily rolled her eyes slightly but she couldn't help share in her excitement "So you going to show us?"

"So promise you won't shout at me," Garcia said looking at Morgan and Emily "What did you do?" Morgan asked "And is my bank in the red?" Garcia smiled "Not quite in the red, but anyway, we discussed this Derek and you said" he cut her off before she rambled too much "Just tell us, please so I can pass out" he mused slightly.

"Well we had planned to buy you the cot for the little bambino" Emily frowned slightly "Let me get this straight, you bought the cot for us, as in we didn't?" Emily doubled checked as she eyed her partner up "Yes, we wanted to do something nice for you both" he said, Emily chuckled slightly "So my macho partner goes to mush when babies are involved" she grinned "Your like my sister in my defence" he said as she wrapped her arms around him kissing his cheek "You didn't need to but thank you, both of you so much" she said looking at her two friends.

Two Weeks Later…6.05am

JJ turned over in her sleep to cuddle into the brunette but yet again the sheets were cold, she groaned slightly, today was they day they were going to start their life together in their own home, slowly she opened her eyes looking at the bright clock she sighed softly to herself, the past two days had been not so much different but hard.

JJ had been woken most nights by the sound or Emily sobbing in her sleep, she was quite a somewhat distant but she had kept to her word and been honest with her so far. Telling JJ, she was trying to work things out in her mind but she was not hiding.

Though she had said, she would like to find someone she could talk to once they had moved and got settled in, and also said she did not know if she would be able to talk to her, but she was trying to do as she had asked.

Many times, over the two days, she had found Emily sitting at a table with the pad and pen in her hand staring blankly at the paper, JJ was unsure if anything had finally been written down, but even though she smiled Emily was trying and that is all that JJ wanted her to do.

Throwing the covers off JJ began to get up and started to carry out her morning routine before going to locate Emily, she opened the door to head downstairs as her sense were attack by the smell of coffee, bacon and eggs, her stomach growled, just as Emily began to walk up the stairs she looked at her "Good morning" Emily had a smile on her face a real smile the one JJ had fallen in love with, it had been so long since Emily had looked at her like she was right now.

JJ returned the smile "Morning babe, what's this?" Emily turn as they both walked back down the stairs "Well I was making the woman of my dreams breakfast in bed but she wasn't there" Emily teased slightly "Hadn't you best go and look for her then?" JJ teased back.

Placing the tray of food down Emily turned to take JJ in her arms. "You are so beautiful Jennifer have I told you that lately?" Emily said taking her into her arms; JJ leaned into her looking into her eyes as she tucked the strayed strand of hair behind her ear.

Emily leaned into the touch the smile never altering "You're not so bad yourself Prentiss, are you going to tell me what has come over you this morning and how long have you been awake for" JJ asked, Emily nodded "Been up most of the night couldn't sleep, Jennifer we move today, this is the last time we will wake in this house, I guess you could say I am happy truly happy" she looked at her with a slight worry betraying in her eyes.

JJ leaned forward pulling her in for a loving kiss running her tongue along her bottom lip to ask for access which Emily gave easily, she pulled away slightly smiling at her. "I can't wait baby, but you could have woke me I would have got up with you" Emily shook her head as she moved pulling the chair for her to sit, taking the seat herself, she spoke softly and somewhat shyly "I needed to think" she frowned "Not think but I needed to" she bit her lower lip trying to find an easier way of saying it "I wrote and well it's not and you can read it but I.. Its but" JJ looked at her shh'ing her "Em, no rush and thank you" she smiled.

"So what time are they getting here and just so you are warned I meant what I said, I catch you carrying anything other than holding the door open you will be spending the night on the couch" she stared at her for a moment "Are we clear!" JJ said firmly.

Emily rolled her eyes in slight frustration but she knew JJ was right as she nodded "Promise my back is already starting to get sore" she stood up to move the plates as she turned around JJ stopped her in her track "Emily" she whispered out looking at the small bump that had appeared, Emily smirked.

JJ rushed running her fingers over her small bump "When did this appear" she said in wilderment "Not sure maybe a couple of days" Emily admitted, she had been waiting for the blonde to notice, "I wanted you to" she trailed off as the cheesiest grin appeared across her face.

"Babies, your babies" Emily cut her off in a dangerous voice "My babies? My babies? You might want to rethink that Jennifer they are OUR babies, I thought you knew this" JJ looked at her before cupping her cheek they worry she saw in her eyes broke her heart someday but right now reassurance was to be given.

"Em, I am sorry, didn't know how or if, their ours!" she smiled softly "their ours" she whispered again as the words finally sunk into her mind "we going to be mom's, I guess I knew that I just haven't said it out loud before Emily I'm sorry" she said softly as she rubbed the small bump, Emily smiled softly "It's okay and sorry I didn't mean to well you know" JJ nodded

"So what time the guys getting here for? And has Morgan picked the van up?" Emily smiled "Well it is a good job your dressed Garcia left me a message last night that they were going to get here for 7.30 and yes Morgan has got the van" JJ's eyes went slightly wide "This is really happening, we are buying, this is" Emily laughed "Yes we are going to own a home, I was waiting for this to happen, it's called buyers-remorse"

JJ spent the next hour moving the boxes they had with Emily's books in and placing them near the door, they had Emily's to move and JJ's apartment so it was going to be a very long day, for them both, but it was going to be worth it Garcia had already arranged everyone to meet for half seven, which had made both Emily, JJ, Karen and Sarah laugh, they never seen her so bossy but it took some pressure off them. They had arranged for the furniture to be delivered after 12pm, which gave the enough time to have gotten most of the stuff moved in.

JJ had left the door open so they could come straight it, Garcia's voice rung through the already telling Morgan to start moving the boxes into the van "But I want to" the glare her throw him got him to shut up and do as he was asked as she watched him bend down she drooled slightly as JJ walked over to her "How can anyone not find that the most sexiest thing" JJ laughed "If you say so Pen, if you say so" she teased.

The guys showed up not long after "What time do you call this?" Garcia asked as Hotch, Rossi and Reid walked through the door, Reid smiled at her "It is 7.45am Garcia" which in turn made everyone chuckle "If you wasn't so adorable I would shout at you for being late, but you two I expect better from" she stared at Hotch and Rossi "Sitter was late" Hotch grumbled which seemed to be acceptable for Garcia "Right well these boxes need to be taken down to the van" she clapped her hands together as she got them to work.

Emily chuckled "She is very" JJ shook her head "I know" they both rolled their eyes as JJ went to help. "Don't forget what I said Emily" JJ said as she started moving the boxes as Garcia interrupted "Sarah are you helping?" she lowered her voice slightly. Sarah tensed slightly as JJ stepped in "Karen is picking her up and they will met us later" Emily wrapped her arms around Sarah "Go get dressed sweetheart I will shout you when Karen gets here"

Emily settled herself on the stool in the kitchen as she watched them, she wanted to help but aside from the promise she had made, her back was aching slightly, but just because she couldn't help with the move, she could at least keep them fed and watered she thought as she began to pull some meat and salad out of the fridge, to make sandwiches for them all and getting the coffee machine ready. It had amazed her that it had only taken them a couple of hour to get everything into the van as they piled back into her kitchen slightly red in the face she could not help but laugh.

"You guys look worse than when we have to chase unsubs" she teased as Morgan pushed her slightly "just because you get to stand around and watch" he looked at her for a moment, as JJ slapped him around the back of his head "children behave or I will ground you both" they couldn't help but laugh as they all took a seat and began eating, JJ handed the coffees around as she stood behind Emily rubbing the lower of her back.

"So you will follow us or Morgan if he remembers how to get there" JJ joked "I do how can I forget" the rest of them hadn't seen the house yet all they had been told by Morgan and Garcia was it was big, which really wasn't much of a description for them, as they pulled up outside the house Reid let out a low whistle "Wow, Emily its huge not big" Rossi patted him on the shoulder "It's nice Prentiss" he said as she opened the door for them to have a look around before they started to unload the van.

The boxes were label so they were shown the different rooms so they all knew where the things were to be placed, Emily stood at the side watching her things be brought

JJ snaked her arms around her waist resting her fingers across her stomach "You okay babe" JJ whispered in her ear, Emily nodded slightly "Just not a lot really considering" she murmured "Well that can change and it will do sweetie, we've got one more trip to do, will you be okay with Garcia or would you rather I stay here with you while they get my things?" "I'll be okay" she paused slightly as she turned in her arms. "Don't take too long" her eyes pleaded as JJ nodded "Okay sweetie just relax while I'm gone we can sort everything out when we are alone" she smiled softly as she placed a light kiss against her lips.

"Are you okay Emily?" Garcia asked once everyone had left to collect JJ's things, "Yeah I'm good, how is everything with you" she smiled softly at her before finding the floor more interesting "Oh you know me peaches, I am always good" she beamed "I bet you two can't wait to get settled in" Emily shifted slightly "Yeah, could do with a soak in the bath as well though" she replied wishing JJ and they guys would hurry up getting back.

They continued to make small talk for a while, Emily was becoming more tired all she wanted to do was sit down or soak in the bath, she had woke up sore and the pain had now been with her most of the day and she was becoming more and more irritable, luckily the furniture arrived to distract them both, they men put the things where Emily and Garcia told them, just as they were leaving Morgan arrived with the van and the rest following in the car.

By 4pm everything was done, Emily and JJ had treated them all to lunch to say thank you, they were finally alone Emily curled into JJ on the new sofa since neither of them wanted to even think about unpacking they had tomorrow to do it before they were back in work, "Jennifer" Emily said softly as she nuzzled into her more "What it is Em, you've been quite all day" she let out a soft sigh "I really need a bath my back is killing me for some reason, but will you join me?" JJ kissed the top of her head "Of course sweetie, and maybe an early night" she replied in a seductive voice.
