How To Save A Life…
M: Lucky 21, like my basketball jersey!
"You have to be strong for Andrew; he's going to need his mommy when you two are reunited again"
At that moment her phone rang and Prentiss answered it, "Prentiss"
"If you tell anyone that I called, you will hear him die! Now leave your home and head for the parking garage at midnight… you have to come alone…" then the line was disconnected.
"Who was it?" JJ asked.
"Oh just a stupid telemarketer" Prentiss lied to her friend, "What time is it JJ, cause I just want to go for a walk alone okay?"
"Um, it's almost ten-eleven why?"
"I think I need to go for a walk… but later cause I have something I need to do" she smiled at her friend before walking back into the living room, walked to Spencer, who was sitting on the couch.
"Emily lis…" he was cut off by her lips meeting his, "Come with me" she told him being pulled him by his hand and was led into the guest room, leaving Garcia and JJ with their mouth opened in shock.
"What the hell did you say to her… I think you should talk to Kevin and me when we have a fight now" the tech god said, while trying to stifle a giggle.

The team had decided to rest up in Emily's home, Morgan and Rossi took the first shift of watching around the building, Garcia had been fast asleep in Emily's room, Hotch in Andrew's room, even though he was a little big for the bed and JJ was now fast asleep on the couch. But in the guest room, Spencer had passed out after his and Emily's make up sex, which had been beyond what he expected. After writing a short note, folded it and left it on the pillow she had her head lying on earlier, got dressed up again and sneaked out of her apartment before hearing a slight cough. She turned around and saw JJ staring at her.
"Where do you think you're going?"
"I need to stretch my legs, I'll be back by midnight" she lied, but before JJ could say anything she had walked out.

As soon as she entered the parking garage, Emily Prentiss was slowly walking towards her vehicle, go into the driver's seat and patiently waited for any signs of the scumbags that had kidnapped her son. She looked at her digital watch and saw that there was less than a minute before midnight would come. At that moment she felt a cold circular object being pushed against her temple lobe.
"Thank you for meeting with us agent Prentiss" he whispered to her, while stroking Andrew's hair, which was crying but since he had taped his mouth almost nothing could be heard, "Start the car and let's leave… NOW!"
As the afraid mother revved up the engine, she quickly shift the car in reversed and back up at almost full speed and right into one of the cement post, sending the guy face first, right into her radio. But what she wasn't expecting was the gun being fired. She didn't feel any pain and assumed that it had hit somewhere else in the vehicle, so she unbuckled herself, grabbed Andrew and left the vehicle, where she saw both Rossi and Morgan running towards her.
"Emily, what happened?"
"He called me earlier and told me to meet him here at midnight… so I back crashed the car… and that knocked him right into my radio and out cold… Rossi please check to make sure that Andrew's okay… I need to sit down" she told them this, while she sank onto the floor.
"Prentiss?" Rossi gave her a concern look.
"I'm just overly stressed Rossi…" she lied; she then winced in pain, earning a stern look from Morgan. He knelt towards her, saw a wet spot on her black shirt, poked it, earning a hiss from her and saw blood on his fingers.
"Rossi call for paramedics, Emily's been shot"
Minutes later, the EMT's arrived, checked her vitals, put her on a gurney and took her to the hospital along with Andrew.

As weeks passed since what had happened in the parking garage, Spencer had been released from the program and had returned to the bureau. But he and Emily refused to talk to one another, since he was really mad at her for having a goodbye sex and leave, when he wasn't really any better.
Andrew had gotten home early to see his mother reading a case file on the couch. He slowly put his little coat in the closet, as he did with his shoes and walked up to her and hugged her, "Hi mom"
"Hey sweetheart, how was school?"
"Boring, school is too easy! I read 10 books in less than ten minutes mom", she then knew that her boy had inherited his father's genius gene.
"We'll talk about it later okay, right now got wash up; supper's going to be ready in any minute"
"Okay mom"
Just then a little timer went off, startling her in the process. She quickly walk up into her room, looked down at what she had left on by her tub… her vision was blurry by the tears that were stuck in her eyes, but she knew what she saw… she saw that damn (+) sign on the white pregnancy stick.
