"Stay there. I'm coming to get you."

Emily cursed and pressed a hand to her head, pulling out her cellphone and dialing JJ's number. "Hey," she greeted once JJ picked up. "I'm going to be really late tonight."

"Are you still at work?" JJ asked. Emily could hear Henry shouting in the background and it eased her tension a little.

"No, I'm stuck on 495. Something's wrong with the car and I can't figure it out."

"Did you call Triple A?"

"Yeah, but they said it'd be at least an hour before the tow got here."

"Okay, well, stay there. I'm coming to get you."

"You don't have to do that, Jayje."

"I know, I want to and I'm not really giving you a choice in the matter anyway."

Emily snorted and rolled her eyes affectionately. "Okay, see you soon then."
