Okay guys here we go, we have jumped ahead. This is set in the beginning of season 4 (we were just at around the beginning of season 3). JJ and Em have been dating for over a year. You're going to get a few flashbacks and mentions of what has been going on in the chapters. Thanks for all the feedback, keep it coming, and hope you enjoy!

JJ was shaking with fury. She saw Hotch glance up and tell her something but she barley heard him. "You need to see this." She said in a cold voice as she punched away at the laptop. Hotch, Morgan and Rossi all surrounded her in seconds looking on at what she was talking about. JJ stood up and ran her fingers roughly through her hair in frustration as they watched the reporter she specifically told to shut the fuck up tell the world that there were two undercover FBI agents in the ranch. Emily and Reid had been safe under the assumption that they were simply two social service workers and knew nothing about the raid. Now though...now JJ felt sick. Hotch started to say something but JJ ignored him and stomped over to her car. "I'm going to kill him." She practically growled. JJ sped out of their assigned area and down to where she knew the reporter had been filming. This was bullshit. Only a few weeks ago they had all almost died at the hands of terrorists in New York. When JJ couldn't get Emily on the phone then she thought she could never be so scared, apparently she could.

JJ hit the brakes full on and the SUV squealed to a stop right in front of the reporter and his crew. She heard him yell in protest and was very glad she had left her gun, because she might have actually used it. "YOU DUMB SHIT!" She screamed at him as she jumped out of the car. JJ barley noticed as the camera crew backed away slightly in fear as she quickly approached the reporter. "Do you have ANY idea what you just did?"

"Reported the news. People deserve to know what's going on." He said defensively.

JJ mashed her lips together in an attempt to calm herself down. It didn't work. "You may very well have just gotten two agents killed by releasing that information. Murdered. That is on you. Do. Not. Report another word until this is all over. Do you fucking understand me?" JJ spat out as she moved closer into the man. He was clearly distressed.

"Okay, sorry."

"Sorry isn't good enough you fuck, you may have just killed my fiancée ." JJ jumped back her her SUV and drove quickly back to the rest of her team. She knew that she had been unprofessional, but to be honest, she didn't regret it at all. She had already told the reporter to stop beforehand, he didn't listen, fuck him.

As JJ pulled up to the team she noticed each of the mean visibly distressed. "What happened!" She asked worriedly as she ran up to Hotch. When he couldn't seem to answer JJ reached out to grab a pair of headphones of her own. Morgan tried to stop her.

"No JJ, don't listen to that." He begged.

"What is it?" She looked at the faces of her three team members, none of them answered her. "WHAT IS IT?" She yelled and reached around to snatch the headphones from Morgan. Placing them over her ears her heart broke as she heard Emily say, "I can take it" and then her clearly getting beaten.

JJ doubled over as the tears began to flow. "We have to go in!" She stressed. Hotch clearly agreed with her, but Rossi was remaining calm.

"No, she's talking to us. Telling us not to come in." He said. Cyrus finished beating Emily and JJ wanted to be anywhere else. Morgan threw his headphones at the table in anger and walked away. Hotch bent over, clearly feeling as horrible as the rest of them. JJ had to sit down or she was sure she might fall over.

"What about Reid?" She whispered after a moment. She needed to focus. She needed to finish this, they had to get Emily out of there.

"Emily said she was the only agent. Reid's still in the church. He's okay as far as we know." Rossi explained. JJ nodded. Of course. Emily is the hero. It was one of the things JJ loved about her, and also one of the things she hated. JJ shook her head and took a deep breath. "Okay, what do we do now?" She asked calmly.

Emily allowed herself to be dragged back into the church. God everything hurt! Once JJ saw her she was going to kill her. Emily listened on as Cyrus began talking, he was releasing all the people who cried when they thought they had taken poison. Reid approached her and she told him what she thought. Catching the younger profiler staring at her face in distress she shook it off. "Its not as bad as it looks." She said off handily. Truthfully? Everything fucking hurt, but she would be fine, they needed to finish this and get out of here. These kids didn't deserve to die because of a crazy man, not to mention she didn't want JJ to worry any more than she probably already was.

As Emily was taken back to the room she had been held in she was cuffed again and left alone. What she wouldn't give for a scalding hot shower with JJ right now. She smiled as she thought of her blonde fiancée. Fiancée. That title was pretty new, even in the middle of a hostage situation it caused Emily to smile.

Emily paced back and forth in her apartment nervously playing with the box in her hands. She was going to ask JJ to marry her. Oh fuck! She had never been more terrified in her life. JJ practically lived at her apartment, had for months now. Emily had gotten Morgan to stall JJ at work for her so she could mentally prepare herself. She didn't want everything to be too corny or too big. JJ knew she had money, but she didn't like Emily to spend a lot on her. A fact that drove Emily crazy. But, she had kept it simple, well, besides the ring, but JJ didn't need to know that. She had wine, a few candles, some roses, nothing over the top. She hadn't dressed up, in fact, she was wearing an oversized t-shirt of JJ's and some leggings. She thought about dressing up, but than JJ would know something was up and Emily wanted to surprise her. A few candles and a couple of flowers weren't out of the norm, but if Emily was wearing a slinky black dress, JJ would get suspicious.

Hearing a car door slam Emily's breath hitched in her throat. She fiddled with the box again before stuffing it out of sight and taking a deep breath. JJ bounded in, tired from a long day and Emily grinned at the sight. She never seemed to get tired of looking at the blonde. "Hi." She greeted her with a smile and a small kiss.

"Hi yourself." JJ said, grinning as well. "You did that didn't you?"

"Did what?"

"Morgan, you made him keep me at work."

"I have no idea what you're..."

"He cracked." JJ said with a devilish grin.

"What!"

"He couldn't get me to stay, so he told me you asked him to 'cause you had a surprise."

"Oh." Emily said. Thank god he didn't actually spill. "That worthless bastard." She joked.

"It's okay, I showed him a surprise of my own I have." JJ said coyly as she wrapped her arms around Emily's neck. Emily watched excitedly as JJ wriggled her eyebrows and beamed.

"Oh really?"

"Yup."

"Want to change first?"

"God yes." JJ groaned. She placed a quick kiss on Emily's cheek and ran upstairs. Emily just shook her head in amusement as she watched her girlfriend go. She checked every possible thing they would need obsessively. Once more she took out the little box and opened it. God she hoped JJ said yes. She knew commitment freaked her out. Staring at the ring and rehearsing what she was going to say, Emily didn't notice the blonde sneaking back down the stairs, changed into sweats and a t-shirt. "You have got to be kidding me!" JJ yelled.

Emily whipped around and dropped the box in shock as she saw the look of fury growing on JJ's face. Shit. She thought. "JJ!" Emily stumbled to pick the ring up and hide it behind her back, in some hope that the blonde hadn't actually seen it yet. "I...you...umm...shit." JJ stalked down the rest of the stairs, her anger only growing as she made her way to Emily. Before Emily could say anything, JJ revealed a little box of her own and shoved it in front of Emily's face.

"I was gonna ask you!" She yelled. "No wonder Morgan started laughing after I told him!" Emily just stared down at the ring in front of her. It was simple and beautiful, everything Emily would want. She looked back at JJ's angry face and broke into laughter. After a second, JJ joined in and they laughed until they couldn't breathe. Motioning for JJ to sit down Emily sat next to her.

"This...well I don't know what this is, but its funny." Emily said.

"Yeah, you could say that." JJ agreed as she reached for the wine. She handed over a glass to Emily and placed her ring in front of it. "You didn't answer my question though." She said with a smirk.

"I wasn't asked one. I was yelled at if I recall correctly." Emily said with a smirk of her own as she placed JJ's ring in front of her.

"Emily, will you marry me?"

"Only if you'll marry me?"

Both women frowned at each other, each wanting the other to answer first. They stared each other down for a few minutes grinning. They knew the others answer now. It was just a matter of who broke first. Seeing JJ was not relenting, Emily smiled. She leaned in and kissed JJ deeply. As she pulled back she whispered, "yes." JJ beamed, wrapped her arms around Emily's neck and pulled her back in for a second kiss.

"Yes to your question as well." She grinned. Emily beamed.

Emily had gotten the message from Morgan – or whichever agent it had been – that the team would be coming in at three am. She was worried that she had made a mistake telling Kathy. Sitting there, cuffed and waiting she would be lying if she said that she wasn't freaking out a little. As Kathy ran into the room, Emily released a sigh of relief.

"I told Jessica Cyrus wants all of the women and children in the basement." She said as she began releasing Emily's bindings.

"Where is the man I came in with?" Emily asked worriedly.

"In the chapel with Cyrus."

Emily ran with Kathy and got all of the children and women into the basement, every movement made her wince in pain. She felt her eyes go wide with relief as she saw Morgan and Rossi.

"Emily!" Morgan yelled running to her.

"They're using explosives. Reid's still in the chapel." Emily started to move back with the other officers, but Morgan stopped her.

"Emily you've got to get out of here."

"No, we've got to get Reid!"

"I will get him. Emily." He forced Emily to look at him. "I will get Reid. There is a certain blonde outside who will murder me if you don't get out there now. So please, for my own safety, get out of here."

Emily gave a small laugh and with a nod, allowed herself to be lead out by Rossi.

JJ paced back in forth in front of the ranch with Hotch. They watched as the children and women all started pouring out quickly. Standing up on her tip toes, JJ searched for Emily. All of the sudden there was a blast and half of the ranch went up in flames. JJ felt herself – and many others – scream. Terrified she scanned the ranch, Emily, Reid, Morgan and Rossi had yet to come out. She almost screamed with relief as she saw Rossi pulling along a slightly limping and choking Emily. JJ ran forward and enveloped herself into Emily tightly, hearing her wince. "Shit." She loosened her grip.

"No, I'm okay." Emily stressed. JJ felt the brunette cling to her, but turn and look worriedly back at the flaming ranch. "They're not out yet?" She asked.

"Not yet." JJ said, trying to inspect every bruise and cut on her fiancée. Both women released the breaths they had been holding as Morgan and Reid came stumbling out of the ranch, a little shaken, but looking unhurt. JJ released her grip on Emily and let her go up and hug Reid. As Morgan approached her, she wrapped herself into him tightly. "Thank you for bringing her back. Both of them." She whispered.

"Anytime Jayje." He said giving her a tight hug and a smile. Emily had let go of Reid and walked back down to JJ, a tight smile on her face. JJ took her hand and without a word dragged her over to get checked out by the EMTs.

"Emily Prentiss. I might murder you one of these days."

Emily smiled at her and allowed JJ to force her to sit down. She didn't even push the EMT away as he began examining her. "Nah, then you'd be all alone."

"I hate you." JJ said with a childlike pout.

"You love me." Emily said back grinning.

"Yes, I do love you. But right now I'm mad at you."

"Okay." Emily never stopped smiling at JJ. She could tell the brunette was in pain, but she wouldn't show it. Once the EMT finished JJ leaned down and pecked Emily on the lips. "I love you too." Emily murmured.

JJ just shook her head and took Emily's hand. "Come on Prentiss, I want to go home."
