Jennifer Jareau hates the BAU Chapter 4, a criminal minds fanfic

Chapter 4

Emily felt arms circle her waist and guide her to the front room. She was in total shock at what she had just yelled at her wife in anger. Her sister Rosalyn was a very touchy subject, that they never talked about, "Oh God! Penny what have I done?" A utterly distraught Emily asked.

Garcia carefully guided her to a seat and gently sat her down. Reid handed her an ice pack for her eye. Emily sat sobbing into her hands inconsolable.

"Every one out now!" Ordered Garcia as she hustled the guys towards the door.

The guys walked out a little shocked at the blow up in the kitchen between the two girls.

JJ laid on her bed curled up in the foetal position crying as she gently caressed her necklace. Emily's words running through her mind on repeat.

"No wonder your sister killed herself having to live with a spoilt bitch like you. It's a wonder I haven't slit my wrists, I deserve a medal."

Her heart shattered the moment Emily attacked Rosalyn.

"Open this door NOW!" Garcia yelled as she thudded her fists on JJ's bedroom door

Too distraught to even talk to her she just laid in the middle of their queen bed wrapped in the covers waiting for her to get the message. After lots of shouting and kicking of the door Garcia eventually stoped and walked down the stairs back to Emily.

Emily tried to sleep in the spare room after Garcia laid down on the settee to sleep in case either of her friends needed her. Giving the idea of sleep up around 4:00 she padded down to the kitchen and started a pot of coffee. With a freshly brewed cup of coffee she sat pondering how she was getting herself out off the dog house with her wife.

Emily had formulated a plan for this evening, a nice meal and a lot of grovelling and apologies. Emily would do anything to keep her wife happy, even leave the FBI. Jennifer was too important to her.

Emily knocked on her bedroom door.

"Jennifer? Please open the door." Emily politely asked

Emily waited for a response.

"Jennifer, please speak to me. I am so, so sorry." A contrite Emily asked

Her answer was scrawled on a scrap piece of paper pushed under the door.

'Go away' it simply read.

Emily sighed after reading her wife's note.

"Jennifer we will talk tonight after I get back from the Quantico, I have my psychiatrist appointment and medical assessment so I can return to desk duty. I am really sorry Jennifer. I love you." She told her bedroom door.

Emily waited for a reply but continued to receive radio silence from Jennifer

Upset she walked away and left for Quantico and her appointments.

Emily walked through the glass doors into the BAU after her appointments. She walked towards Hotch's office with her clearance form to return to desk duty. Normally the brunette would be ecstatic about her return to work, even restricted duties. Her fight with Jennifer last night over shadowed everything, she felt lost without her soul mate next to her.

"Prentiss my office." Hotch asked from his office door

"How are things?" He asked his agent

She tried to smile but couldn't even manage that "Now that is a very loaded question. She still won't talk to me, I got a note pushed under the bedroom door this morning." Emily passed over her scrap of paper

Hotch reads her little message "Go Away"

"It's something Emily, your eye looks sore." He gave her a small smile

"I will see you at 09:00 in the morning. Go home and sort things out with JJ." Hotch actually gave her a small smile.

Emily walked into the condo carrying a large bouquet of roses and lilies her wife's favourite flowers.

"Jennifer, I'm home." Announced Emily

With no surprise to her she received no reply from her wife. She started looking around the condo for her wife to start her apology. She went room to room and found no sign of her wife. Leaving the bedroom until last. Surprised she found the door unlocked and slightly ajar pushing the door open with trepidation she found their bedroom empty.

"Maybe she went out." She told herself with a heavy heart

She opened the doors to there walk in closet and gasped

"She's gone." Cried Emily.

The racks usual holding her wife's clothes were now all empty. JJ had gone.

distraught Emily replaced JJ in the middle of their bed crying cuddling her pillow her scent still detectable.

JJ listened to Emily as she talked to her through the bedroom door still refusing to talk to her. Scribbling a small note she pushed it under the door.

Her fingers caressing her pendant on Rosalyn's necklace she heard the front door close as Emily left for Quantico. JJ had decided what she needed to do

Picking up her cell phone she hit speed dial 3

"Elizabeth, I need your help." JJ managed before she burst into tears

"I will be straight over, is this about Hotchner or my pig headed daughter?" Elizabeth asked a little annoyed. She was upset Jennifer sound so distraught.

20 minutes later JJ showed Elizabeth into the condo. JJ enveloped Elizabeth in her arms and burst into tears. Elizabeth escorted her into the lounge and sat her down.

"What has she done?" Asked Elizabeth

JJ moved the pendant on her necklace back and forth deep in thought

"She told me no wonder your sister killed herself having to live with a spoilt bitch like you. It's a wonder I haven't slit my wrists, I deserve a medal." JJ took a moment of pause "I want to leave her, she hurt me Elizabeth, Rosalyn is just too far. Will you help me?" A very quiet voice asked

Elizabeth looked beyond mad at her daughter. "Yes sweetheart, you will stay at the mansion with me. My daughter will not know."

Within 30 minutes 10 removal men walked around the condo removing all of Jennifer's possessions she had decided to take.

2 hours later JJ locked the condo door and walked down towards Elizabeth's car arm in arm.

"Thank you for helping Elizabeth." JJ smiled as her cell phone text tone sounded

She reads her text "Damn! Didn't won't to bump into Emily so quickly." Sighed JJ

"What is it? Jennifer" asked Elizabeth

"Strauss is giving the results of my complaint in the morning. I have to be present." The distraught blonde answered.

JJ turned her phone off and removed the battery to prevent Garcia doing her thing.

Elizabeth had settled Jennifer into her large bedroom in the mansion leaving her in tears making a rather large dent in a bottle of vodka.

"Thomas? This is Elizabeth Prentiss I need to call in a favour. My daughter-in-law is due to attend a meeting with Chief Erin Strauss in the morning. Due to personal reasons she will be represented by me. Could you make sure she knows and I can get access to Quantico in the morning?" Elizabeth asked the FBI director

The director happily agreed to her request and promised her everything would be arranged.

Elizabeth checked on JJ to find her passed out on the bed sleeping clutching her bottle of vodka. She left a note about her meeting with Strauss on her bedside table and turned off the alarm clock.

Walking into work the next morning Emily look disheveled still wearing yesterday's pants suit her hair in a very untidy bun. Her makeup very heavy trying to hide her red eyes. She solemnly walked to her desk and just plopped into her desk chair. Morgan had watched her arrival with Reid, Rossi and Garcia all immediately knowing something was wrong.

"Princess, what's wrong?" A concerned friend asked

"She has…." Emily stood and rushed into the restroom

Everyone watched as the usually stoic agent fell to pieces in front of their eyes

Rossi looked at everyone "That doesn't bode well. Penelope I think you need to check on her."

Garcia opened the rest room door and eventually found Emily sitting on the toilet in the furthest stall crying.

Garcia knelt down in front of the crying brunette "oh Em, tell me what's wrong." She gently asked the upset woman

"…..[sniff]….. Oh Pen she left me, took everything….[sniff]… her wardrobe is empty. She won't answer her cell phone…[sniff]…" cried the broken brunette profiler

"Oh, honey come here." She told her friend arms open

Emily collapsed into her arms breaking down.

After knocking Derek entered

"We're needed in Strauss office for her findings on JJ's complaint. Emily, JJ will be there so you can talk after, I will make sure even if I have to cuff her and drag her to a conference room." Morgan told his partner with a squeeze of her shoulder

Emily attempted to make her appearance more acceptable to FBI policy but her heart wasn't really in it. She brushed her hair and left it at that.

They waited outside Strauss office waiting for her punishments as Emily walked in and sat down.

"I'm sorry to hear about Jennifer leaving. If I can do anything?" Hotch asked

The three agents walked into the office when summoned to find Ambassador Prentiss sat to the side of Strauss desk.

"Mother?" Emily couldn't help but ask.

"Jennifer asked me by text if I could attend in her place last night." Only a slight fib she thought "The director arranged it for me."

Emily's head instantly dropped and her heart shattered as she sat next to her mother. She had hoped to see her wife not her mother.

Strauss quickly brought the meeting to order

"SSA Hotchner I found your actions to be recklessly out of control for such a senior agent. You were very luck SSA Prentiss didn't die from her severe allergic reaction.

1. You will have an official reprimand on your record

2. Probation for 1 year a senior director will be allocated to you. He will asses all your field work and decisions.

3. You will attend a mandatory series of courses HR has specially put together for you over the next 3 months

You can of course appeal my recommendations SSA Hotchner." Strauss informed her agent

Hotch shook his head and signed the offered forms and sat down

Strauss picked up the second file on her desk

"SSA Morgan. You are second in command of your BAU team, it is your responsibility to inform your team leader if you think he is wrong. You have attended the FBI's leadership course and aced it according to your instructors reports.

1. You will have an official reprimand on your record

2, You will attend HR's mandatory courses over the next 3 months

You disregard your restraining order 30 minutes after being served in the hospital. You had to be turned away from SSA Emily Prentiss hospital room by her security guard. Unfortunately for you this was witnessed by her wife. To save the FBI embarrassment she reported it to us. For your severe lack of respect for the law you are supposed to uphold

You are suspended for 30 days without pay

Demoted to Special Agent

Probation for 1 year

You can of course appeal my recommendations SA Morgan." Strauss informed her agent"

Derek looked shocked but signed the offered form not wanting to push his luck.

The ambassador looked on impassively at the proceedings.

"SSA Hotchner," Hotch turned to look at her "This isn't over,"

Emily waited outside Strauss office until her mother walked out

"Do you know where Jennifer is?" Emily asked desperately

"No wonder your sister killed herself having to live with a spoilt bitch like you. It's a wonder I haven't slit my wrists, I deserve a medal." The ambassador told her daughter "your on the precipice Emily. What were you thinking? Jennifer was distraught on the phone you are so close to loosing her." She warned

Emily just looked on flabbergasted and in deep shock

"Ask yourself Emily, who is more important to you Jennifer or the BAU? Make sure you make the right move or Jennifer is lost forever." Warned her mother
