JJ

It's been four days since I left, and four hours since I sent my last email. Dad wants me to stay another week but I refuse. Jason and Emma are horrible! They are like Mini Alex's running around. They were disgusted by me being gay and wouldn't talk to me for the first two days, only till dad threatened to take away their weekly allowance of, get this, a thousand dollars! I couldn't believe that! That's 104 thousand dollars a year on those brats! Plus he has two more out there somewhere. Hilda has them out in like Switzerland or something like that. They were too young to travel with him. I'm leaving later today heading out to Russia for 'family bonding' or in other words, I'm back in one of my old stomping grounds. I was thinking, that maybe you would join me? If you'd like there is information and a ticket leaving tonight. Hope to see you at the airport.

Love you,

Em

Emily looked around the terminal, hoping to spot JJ there. She had her father purposely get tickets that laid over in Pennsylvania thinking JJ would join them. Her father had not been pleased, neither had Jason and Emma, Emily couldn't tell how they were even related.

"Hi." JJ stepped up behind Emily and smiled realizing that Emily didn't see her. Emily immediately turned around at break neck speed.

"JJ!" Emily wrapped JJ in a tight hug. "Oh god I've missed you." Emily sighed holding JJ.

"Em…too tight!" JJ hit at Emily's shoulder till she loosened her grip.

"God I love you." Emily kissed JJ softly.

"Emily Elizabeth Prentiss." Emily's father's voice rung through the small airport. Emily ignored him and continued to kiss JJ. Suddenly Emily and JJ were separated and Edwin stood between them his face a deep red.

"Emily Prentiss you will listen to me when I speak!"

"Dad…not now." Emma spoke up from her spot against the wall.

"Emma you stay out of this, it's an adult conversation." Edwin said to his younger daughter.

"Hmm… sure." Emma said walking over to JJ, Emma being 16 knew where she stood on her elder 'sisters' relationship, and where her family wanted her to stand. Taking JJ's hand she pulled her against the wall, before pulling back Emily from Edwin.

"Emma!" Edwin yelled at the girl.

"You only called Emily because I know you thought you could take her back to Russia and she'd meet up with Matthew again. Then she'd fall for him and you'd be happy with no political issues on your plate." Emily stepped closer to JJ and then pulled Emma to her. Neither of them knew the other but she wouldn't let the girl get hurt for protecting her love.

"Emma, darling you must understand."

"That I've been with one of my friends for a year now and you never found out but when Emily comes out you decide to pull us out of classes for the last bit of the year and drag us out here to meet her, thinking you could change her mind?" Edwin's jaw slacked again as he thought about who Emma could possibly be with.

"Jason…" Emma said stunned as her brother stepped up to her.

"You swore you weren't!" He came closer to Emma, suddenly Emily was between them and had Jason pinned to the ground as JJ pulled Emma away from them.

"Jason… calm down. Edwin, maybe we should just go home. You off to your new wife, and JJ and I will go to her family."

"No, I want this trip." Edwin glared at his eldest daughter.

"Alright… Jason will sit with you, Emma, JJ and I will sit in coach." Emily said picking Jason up off the floor pushing him into Edwin. Emily took JJ's hand, wrapping her other arm around Emma. She shot a look at Edwin over her shoulder as they got on the plane.

"So that's your father?" JJ said resting her head on Emily's shoulder.

"Define father." Emily huffed, JJ and Emma exchanged looks, it was going to be a long week.
