Okay so I know a lot of people had problems with my last chapter thinking it wasn't very realistic since it didn't explain a lot of things. In my writing I like to hold back a lot of details and give them at specific points so that I can always keep a little mystery within the story. So here is the back-story for the people who had trouble with the last chapter.
And again just as another A:N I live in Australia! I try my hardest to write for my American readers, like using mom instead of mum, so as much as I am sorry I can't fix every mistake that appears in my writing.
I have done a little research on asperger syndrome but do not know a lot, so if anyone knows heaps about It that feel free to PM me and give me advice.
3 years earlier:
"Emily" whispered JJ through the tears that streamed down her face. Emily had been in a comma for nearly two months. The bomb had gone off thirty meters away from the SUV that Emily and herself had been driving at the time, when the deranged unsub decided to do a blitz attack on the crowded main street killing ten bystanders and injuring many more.
There where two people who where still in a comma because of the unsubs actions and one of them was the one that JJ loved was lying in the bed unconscious. "Come on Em, Our daughter needs you, she got a hundred percent on her math test the other day, she was so proud of herself and cant wait to show her mom"
"Hello miss Jareau" said the nurse as she entered the hospital room
"Hey Jackie" replied JJ as she looked over at the nurse before she diverted her concentration back to her comatose girlfriend. As Jackie finished her observations and wrote them down on the chart at the end of the bed she smiled over at JJ "How is she today?"
"Everything is the same, her body has almost healed and the three broken ribs have almost healed themselves, we are worried mainly about the bleeding in her brain. We don't know what type of damage the pressure that built up on the brain. I am sorry but we just have to wait and see" the nurse gave a sympathetic smile before leaving the room.
Throughout the whole ordeal JJ had come into the hospital every day after work, Hotch had luckily given her a desk job that allowed her to work from the BAU instead of taking her out into the field at ungodly hours of the day so that she could look after Emma until Emily was back on her feet again however long that would take.
"Mom?" came a little voice from the door way, JJ looked around too see Emma with her arms wrapped around her small pink bear that her uncle Derek had given her when Emily had first been admitted into the hospital
hey Emma, do you want to come and sit on my lap and talk to mommy?" asked JJ, Emma nodded enthusiastically before she sat herself on her second mothers lap and started to tell her mommy about her day.
One of the hardest things that JJ had to deal with was the fact that Emma had asperger's. Luckily for Emily and herself, Emma had only mild asperger's and only had problems with friendship a lot like Reid, but was brilliantly smart. Emma was not a genius but she had an extremely high above average IQ;Which allowed her to excel in class but also made her a target for the play ground taunts.
One of the many problems that JJ faced was that because of Emma condition it made her a lot of the time act younger than her age, the specialist that Emily had been sending Emma too before the explosion had explained that Emma would probably grow out of the young child state when she hit puberty and her hormones started.
After another half hour of Emma telling her unconscious mom about her day and her friendship with lily she started to get tired she curled up into the side of JJ. JJ kissed the young girls head before picking Emma up into her arms and leaning over Emily and placing a loving kiss to Emily's forehead before leaving the room with a sleeping Emma.
2 Months Later!
There were voices swirling in her head, the distinct voice of a young female and another voice off a quiet older woman talking, their voices coming to her in whispers though she knew that they were talking in a normal tone of voice.
Slowly she felt the warmth of a thumb rubbing slowly over her knuckles, and then the brightness of lights filtered by her eyelids.
"And Lily gave me a lollipop today" said the small girls voice that she recognised after a few seconds as her daughters. She gathered that the person who was rubbing her knuckles must be her Jennifer. Feeling the woman intertwine their fingers Emily tried as hard as she could to squeeze her fingers, the slight pressure on her fingers startled Jennifer as she looked down at the hand that was intertwined with hers when she saw the fingers start to slowly curl and hold her hand.
"Emily?" looking over to the brunette's face she could see Emily's eyelids fluttering as she squeezed her hand "I can feel you squeezing my hand, come on sweetheart let me see those beautiful brown eyes of yours" whispered Jennifer into Emily's ear, she hoped that Emily was coming out of the comma but didn't want to disappoint Emma if Emily just had a natural impulse to her squeezing her hand even though it hadn't happened in the last four months.
Slowly Emily's eyelids opened after a minute of trying. A huge smile erupted over Jennifer's face as she looked at the beautiful brown eyes that she hadn't been able to see in months. "God Emily I missed you" cried JJ as she placed a kiss to Emily's lips as the tears leaked down her face, Emma lifted herself onto her mother's bed as she smiled happily as seeing her mother awake
"I missed you mummy" cried Emma as she snuggled into the side of her mother as Emily slowly lifted one of her arms up to hold her daughter against her side as she lifted a hand to her girlfriend's face as she let out a sigh.
"I missed you too baby" croaked Emily as her throat felt like sand paper had been rubbed continuously for however long she had been out for, Jennifer broke from the moment to press the call button next to the brunette's bed as her eye's never left the now concious brunette.
"Em, don't speak" demanded Jennifer as she saw that the brunette was about to speak again, Emily nodded and closed her eyes briefly as she felt the love for her daughter and the confusion of what happened to her.
A nurse rushed into the room less than a minute later after the signal had been given the nurses desk
"Well Miss Prentiss has decided to return to the world of the living" smiled the woman, she was happy for the two females who had come to see the woman each and every day. "I will page the doctor and he should be up in less than half and hour, as for now try not to speak to much Miss Prentiss as you have been in a nasty Comma" Emily nodded, the nod making her head hurt as though she had been reading to many case files.
"What happened to me?" croaked Emily as the nurse left the room after taking her vital signs and writing them on the clipboard at the end of the bed. Jennifer smiled at the fact that her girlfriend still wouldn't listen to a nurses orders.
"You were involved in a accident. I tell you more later" Emily nodded as she looked at Jennifer knowing that Jennifer didn't want Emma to hear what had happened to her.
"How long have I been out for?" croaked Emily as she looked at the sadness in Jennifer's eyes
"Almost four and a half month's" said Jennifer sadly as she wiped a tear that leaked from the side of the brunette's eye. Emily had missed four and a half months of her daughters life, she always felt guilty after going on a case that was over a week let alone four and a half months. Jennifer could see the sadness that swept over the brunette's face. "It wasn't your fault and you are here now" Emily nodded slightly as another tear slid down her face.
So I had over 2000 people read the first chapter of this story. So thank you to those who are reading this story. But the thing that pleases me the most is getting reviews. Yeah I know another written begging for reviews but I really do like people giving me advice hence why this chapter was written and not the chapter that I was planning.
