Christmas Tree

They went off to get themselves a Christmas tree as a family. They were determined to celebrate a family Christmas now Emily and Amy lived with them. They wanted their first complete Christmas. Emily was so happy it wouldn't be just another Christmas with just her and Amy. She was thankful to Beth that they could finally have Christmas all together.

They went looking for a tree while Amy was on her father's back. They then saw a big tree and she shouted, "I want that one."

"That's a great choice, Amy," Jack agreed.

"Alright then this is our tree," Emily and Aaron confirmed causing both their children to smile.

Emily took Amy and Aaron asked Jack, "Son, could you help me?"

"Sure dad," he answered.

"I'll just take Amy to get some cocoa," Emily added.

He nodded kissing her cheek then he bent down to pick the tree up with his son. She escorted their daughter to get cocoa. When they got there they saw JJ with Edward and Henry.

"Auntie JJ," Amy shouted running up to her. She'd only met her twice but really liked her.

"Hey Amy," she smiled when she saw the little dark-haired girl running up to her with her mother following.

"What are you doing here?" Emily smiled.

"Same as you getting a tree. Will and Tracy are just putting it on the car," she informed her.

"Same as Aaron and Jack...Can you look after Amy? I'm just going to get her some cocoa."

"Sure..." She then turned to Amy and asked, "Want to play with Edward and Henry, sweetie?"

She nodded and went to play with them while Emily got the two of them cocoa then two more for her boyfriend and teenage stepson. Soon enough Will and Tracy joined them with Jack and Aaron.

Both women handed cocoas to their families while they carried on watching the younger children play. Emily had a proper look at her old friend and noticed a little bump. She smiled at JJ and she smiled back.

"Are you...?" she asked smiling.

She nodded and placed her hand on her bump. "Three months," she answered. Aaron's eyes widened as he caught on to what they were talking about. His agent and friend had been pregnant for three months and not told him. When he got back after Christmas he'd have to find another agent to replace her for her maternity leave.

"Why didn't you tell me?" he asked.

"We didn't want to put any stress on you with Emmy dying," she answered.

He nodded and then smiled, "Congratulations."

"Thank you. Congratulations you two," she smiled back as Emily snuggled up to Aaron. She was more than happy for her two friends who she always knew were perfect for each other.

"Thanks," they smiled back watching their kids.

"So are you coming back to the BAU?"

"After Christmas," he smiled.

"Great," she smiled. "We have missed you..." he smiled and Emily smiled at him. "What about you, Ems?"

"I'm looking for the same work I did back in Perth translating," she replied.

"I'm glad you used your language skills."

"So am I," Aaron added.

She smiled at them both. She had enjoyed being an agent but for the last eight years she'd been happy to work as a translator using her language skills. She was willing to work for anyone and help translate anything. She'd made a reputation for herself in Australia that she hoped she could rebuild here in America. She'd been a freelance translator and even given herself time to learn six more languages. Going out there she could speak Spanish, French, Russian, Greek, Arabic and Italian. Now she could speak Cantonese, Aramaic, Tamal, Japanese, German and Romanian as well. She'd been adding more languages to her repertoire to help get more work so she could raise her baby girl well without lying back on her mother's money.

"I can speak twelve now. Leant another six out in Australia."

"Grrr sexy," Aaron purred into her neck while she giggled.

JJ smiled at them both acting like love struck teenagers. Yes these two were definitely madly in love and she was happy to see it.
