Chapter 2

Emily' point of view:

I walk into Joes around 9:10. I saw Penelope waving me over to their table. I smile and start walking to the table. "Hey guys! Sorry I'm late." I said as I sat next to Jennifer Jareau or JJ and Derek. "We didn't think you were gonna show Prentiss." David Rossi said. JJ handed me a drink. "I pre-ordered you this." She said smiling. "Thanks." "Looking good princess." Derek said winking and then checking me out. I rolled my eyes. I decided to wear my black dress with red high heels. "Hailie, this is Emily Prentiss, the newest member of our team." Hotch said to his wife. Hailie stuck out her hand out for me to shake, which I did of course. "So, Emily. How's the B.A.U treating you?" Hailie asked me. Hotch laughted and said. "She means am I being nice to you." Hailie takes a sip of her drink, nods her head and points to Hotch. "Everyone's been very nice." I tell her. Even though it's only half the truth. "Good I'm glad." Hailie said, while looking at Hotch with her eyebrows raised. "Oh Emily, this is Will LaMontagne. Henry's father." JJ said while pointing to the handsome man next to her. I've heard a lot about little Henry, who's five. Our kids are ten years apart, yet we're the same age. "Nice to finally meet you, Emily. I've heard wonderful things about you. It's nice to finally put a face to the name." Will said while shaking my hand. I smile. "You too."

We've been at Joe's bar for a couple hours now. Just as I was about to tell them that I was gonna get going, Hotch's phone rang. A few minutes later, when he got off the phone, he told us that we have a case. Ugh! I sighed. We all had to be at the B.A.U in thirty minuets. Once I got in the car, I called Charlie. "Hey mom." She answered. I could tell she was sleeping. I glanced at the clock, 11:26. Oops. "Sorry hon. I just wanted to tell you that we got a case… So I'm not coming home tonight. I'll probably be gone for a couple days." I told her. "O-Kay.. Is it bad? Where you going?" Charlie asked still half asleep. "Yeah it's bad… We're going to California. Will you be okay for a couple days or do you want to stay with someone? Sookie? Sam?" I asked. "Um… Well tonight I'll be fine. I'll see about the other days though." She tells me. "Okay, I'll call you tomorrow sometime." I told her. Charlie yawns. "Okay, I love you." I smile. "Love you too hon." Just before I was about to hang up, I hear Charlie say one more thing. "Please be careful mom… I worry about you." "I promise. Now get some sleep."
