"I can't pretend that nothing happened. I just can't Reid." JJ looked up at him with tear filled eyes.

"I'm not asking you to. I'm asking you to understand that this was not my choice and that I would have given anything to be with you. That I still will." Tears streamed down his face as he realized he was losing everything he had never really had to begin with.

"What am I supposed to do Reid pretend that you weren't gone? That I didn't cry myself to sleep? That I didn't feel your baby in me and wish that you were there to hold my hand? Am I just supposed to pretend that nothing happened?" Her words were like razors cutting his soul.

"We could start over?" He was pleading and crying and he knew that this was the strongest he had ever been. Weakness was far away from him in his quest to love her.

"And I am I supposed to forget that you walked away?"

"JJ I had no choice."

"You did the night you died you had a choice then. And you chose to leave me crying on my stoop." She stood and walked into the bullpen.

AN- I know this is very short but it is a segway to the next Chapter. I hope you all like it and will review as I am more likely to update when I get reviews--they really make writing more fun, and they motivate new chapters. I am also sorry for the delay in updates on this story. It is almost done and I will post again soon.

PLEASE R+R
