Chapter 12
The Punishing
Morgan had finally drifted off to sleep next to JJ in the small hospital room. It was the first night of a deep sleep ever since his girl had gone missing. Finally she was safe and back in his loving embrace. Morgan awoke so screaming in the middle of the night. He looked over to see JJ struggling beneath the covers.
"JJ! Wake up!" He said shaking her gently but as forcefully as possible. She continued to fight with the covers. Finally a nurse came in and turned on the light. Both the nurse and Morgan tried to wake her up. She eventually came to, gasping for breath. "Jayje? Are you alright?" She simply nodded and fell back on to the bed exhausted.
"Do you want some sleeping pills? To put you in a deeper sleep and hopefully ease the nightmares." the nurse asked kindly. JJ compiled showing a weakness, which she normally did not do. Morgan noticed this. this is going to be a lot of healing, a lot of time. Morgan thought, not sure how he felt about it. Several minutes later the light was off, JJ was again falling asleep, and Morgan was left to ponder his thoughts. He knew he wouldn't be able to go back to sleep anytime soon. And so he thought. The rest of the night brought no adventure, just peaceful sleeping. The next day arrived and the team was ready to take Emily home. They only wished JJ could be coming as well, but they understood that right now, the hospital was the best place for there little media liaison. While JJ had been in the hospital the team had caught the horrible men that had hurt JJ, they had been prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. None of them would ever see the light of day again. As well as the men that had "bought" and raped her. JJ's demons were going behind bars.
A few days later JJ was released and went home only to sleep her pain away. Morgan stayed with her every night and comforted her every second she needed it. He was her hero. Right when she needed it most. The days past slowly and soon JJ's bruises and injuries began to fade and go away. The nightmares became less vivid and less often, giving Morgan and JJ the normal love life they needed. Two months later JJ was back at work and feeling better than she had in a long time. She had talked to her own psychiatrist as well as the one at work. She had began to come to terms with what happened. She was staring to feel ready to let the team back into her life. It was a late night and JJ was doing some leftover paperwork from the last case. It was finally the weekend, JJ was ecstatic to go home and stay there for 3 whole days. Morgan quietly snuck up behind her and covered her eyes.
"Guess who?" He said in an unnatural voice.
"Hotch?" JJ asked sarcastically. Morgan chuckled and turned her around before planting a soft kiss on her lips. She returned the kiss with as much passion as she could before finally breaking away for air.
"I love you Jennifer Jareau." Morgan said kissing her again on the mouth.
"As to you Derek Morgan. My one and only." She replied.
"Whadya say we rent a movie and get take out for tonight?" Morgan asked.
"Sounds perfect." JJ answered grabbing her stuff she followed him out the door and to her car.
"I will be at your place with food and a movie in a a half hour." Morgan said before kissing her goodbye and walking to his car.
JJ had just gotten home. She dropped her stuff on the couch and collapsed next to it. She was exhausted. It had been a long grueling case. It was about this psychopath woman that was kidnapping new born babies to fill her fantasy and want for a little baby. They had finally caught her after she made a mistake in the 3rd murder of the little child. JJ shuddered at the thought. But it made her think. Her and Morgan had been having the best love life she could hope for. Especially after the hell she had endured. But all was well, they were having the time of their lives. Thinking of the topic she decided to take a pregnancy test before Morgan got there just for fun. And she did want to make sure her job wouldn't be affected say he had gotten her pregnant. She slowly got up from the couch mustering all the energy she had. A few minutes later she walked out of the bathroom with her jaw hanging wide open. She heard Morgan knocking at the door and walked over, it must have been locked, otherwise he would have just walked in. She opened the door still in utter shock.
"Jayje? You alright?" Morgan asked.
"Derek. . .I-Im pregnant!" JJ said jumping into his arms with a wide grin on her face.
"Baby are you serious?" Morgan asked with disbelief.
"Im serious! You going to be a dad!" JJ said nearly jumping for joy. Oh she couldn't wait to have a little squirt running around, dark skin like Morgan's but blue eyes like hers. Oh they were sure to have a gorgeous baby. It was inevitable. She smiled at the thought.
"Im pregnant." JJ said again still not sure if it was really happening or not.
"What are we going to tell the team?!" Morgan said.
"We will tell them the truth! Oh they will be so excited!" JJ exclaimed.
"Your pregnant." Morgan repeated picking her up and spinning her in a circle. He set her down on the ground and gave her a soft kiss.
"I love you." Morgan said. All JJ could do was grin.
