Running Back

'Oh my God, Dean! Are you ok?' Emily asked dropping to his side.

'Yeah, I'm fine. I better go. We'll talk later.' Dean said, getting up and rubbing his jaw, he gave Emily a quick kiss and then left. Emily stood angrily turning to Morgan and Reid.

'Derek?' She went to ask, but stopped when he walked away.

'Emily I am so sorry. I tried to stop him.' Reid apologised looking like a deer caught in headlights.

'It's not your fault.' She said running after Morgan. As she reached him, she jerked his arm and spun him round to face her.

'What the hell was that Derek?' Emily asked glaring at him.

'Nothing, it doesn't matter.' He replied, avoiding her glare.

'Nothing? Doesn't matter? You just punched my boyfriend and I want to know why!' Emily yelled, not caring about the attention they were receiving. Morgan just shook his head angrily.

'What's wrong with you? You can't just go around hitting people.' Emily said disgusted. Morgan just snorted, shaking his head at her.

'What's wrong with me? That's rich. Have you looked in the mirror? Can you not see that big black bruise? Are you really that stupid? He hit you Em, hit you. You told me once that if a guy ever hurt you, you'd be gone in a heartbeat. What's wrong with you?' He said, staring at her intensely. Tears threaded their way down her pale cheeks as she replied.

'You don't understand. I love him. He promised he'd never do it again.' She whispered.

'Emily Prentiss! You know what guys like him are like. They promise they won't hurt you again, but they never stop, never. He'll do it again, I promise you! I can't even look at you.' Derek spat out angrily.


'What's going on?' JJ asked as Rossi and JJ joined her and Reid. They could see and hear Emily and Morgan arguing on the other side of the lobby.

'Derek and I heard Emily talking to her boyfriend. I tried to stop him, but he was to strong.'

'What did he do?' Rossi asked from behind JJ.

'Hit Dean.'

'Oh My God! Why?' JJ asked shocked.

'For hitting her.'

'Emily told me he didn't touch her. She lied to me.'

'You knew about her seeing someone?' Rossi asked but JJ didn't answer as she saw Emily flee out the lobby door.

'Em, Emily! Wait up! Please.' JJ shouted after Emily. When JJ got outside she couldn't find Emily anywhere, the only thing she saw was a man getting into his car. Emily was nowhere in sight and that frightened JJ.
