Emily looked up and out her window in her dorm at the FBI academy, it was raining again today, the fourth day in a row. She was really starting to miss JJ badly. She called her at least once a week and they sent emails constantly. Emma was keeping in touch with her too, along with Sam. Sam had surprised Emily when she told Emily her plans to ask Emma to marry her one-day.

"Hang on JJ I said I'll be right there." Emily chuckled shaking her head before turning back to Sam. "Alright Sam what's up?"

"I want to ask Emma to marry me." That made Emily's jaw drop.

"You have to be shitting me."

"Emily… I'm really in love with her."

"Your 16! You don't even know how to spell love!"

"17."

"Fine! Sam that's insane."

"Emily…I can't lose her."

"What is it with you and thinking you are going to lose her?"

"Have you seen her? She is a goddess…I still don't know how I caught her in the first place." Sam sighed.

"Sam," Emily placed her hands on the younger girl's shoulders. "Emma picked you, no one else. I want you to think about this, every little detail, all of it."

"Emily…" Sam pulled out a blue box. "I have." Emily looked at the box as Sam opened it revealing an engagement ring.

"Sam, if this is what you really want, I will stand beside your decision." Emily said straightening up.

"Thank you Emily!" Sam wrapped her arms around Emily in a hug.

"Yeah, yeah, now I gotta go before JJ goes and finds someone else."

"See?"

"Oh hush up." Sam chuckled as Emily walked away. "Oh and she's not riding on your motor cycle."

"What you don't know won't hurt you." Sam yelled back.

That was almost three months ago now, about a week before Emily left for here. JJ had come up to visit often, and Emily's roommate had tried to keep Emily's mind off of her family but she failed miserably at it most the time.

"Emily? You still moping around in here?" Elle walked in and looked at Emily as she sat on her desk staring out the window.

"Hey."

"Emily for fucks sakes girl go see her!" Elle yelled and pulled Emily down off the desk.

"I can't Elle, she's gotta focus on school."

"Emily you look like shit, for god sakes, you don't eat, you don't sleep, you don't party, you haven't even changed your clothes in god knows how long."

"Hey!"

"What it's true and you know it." Elle grabbed Emily's chin. "Go now, I swear to god I better not see you back here for five days you hear me?"

"Yeah, whatever."

"Don't whatever me, here." Elle shoved her red tank top and black jeans at Emily. "Change and go. Your go bag is on the ground by the door. Five days Emily Prentiss or I'm calling your mother." Emily laughed and grabbed her phone.

"JJ"

"Hey." Emily smiled hearing JJ's voice.

"Emily! I'm so glad you called." Then Emily's phone beeped.

"JJ, that's my other line."

"Call me right back ok?"

"I will, I love you Jennifer." Emily smiled.

"I love you too Emily." Emily answered her other line.

"Emily Prentiss."

"Prentiss, your first field exam starts now, you have an hour to get the tarmac, you'll be working with the BAU."

"Alright."

"That's it, see you there." The man hung up. Emily sighed and called JJ back.

"Baby, I have to go out, it's my first field case."

"Oh Emily, it's ok." JJ sighed; she knew how important this was to Emily. "You'll rock at this, ok? You call me as much as you can, I love you so much."

"I love you too."

"Now, go!" JJ laughed.

"Right, right I'm on my way." Emily smiled and hung up.

"Emily! Guess what?" Elle came tearing out of her room.

"Let me guess, field test?"

"Yeah! With the BAU!" Elle was nearly jumping up and down.

"Me too!" Emily grabbed their go bags and they headed out the door.
