Disclaimed!

So far, for those keeping count, we've had mentions of JJ/Will, Emily/Will, Emily/Rossi, Garcia/Kevin and we will have, somehow, future JJ/Hotch (I promise), so question, can there be any more pairings?

If you have a preference (friendship or romance) or want to suggest one, let me know.

Enjoy and let me know what you think!

Hotch and JJ sat with their son's at the dining room table colouring in random dinosaur pictures. The DC case finished mid afternoon and they both spent the rest of their time in their respective offices.

Prentiss had not spoken to anyone on the team nor said goodbye when she left early in the evening, for the weekend. Rossi followed suit but Garcia dragged Reid and Morgan to talk to JJ before they left.

Insisting she was fine, JJ watched her three colleagues leave her office dejectedly and then complained to Hotch about how awkward everything was at work, for the entire journey home, after the unit chief had cornered her in the kitchenette at told her to pack up for the day.

As Jack and Henry happily chatted away at the table, the adults shared a concerned glance as a knock on the door interrupted the comfortable ease.

JJ stayed at the table, smoothing down Henry's fair hair, as Hotch went to answer the door. The profiler frowned at the sight of his colleague at the other side of the peep hole. "Dave, are you okay?"

"We need to talk." Rossi replied solemnly but gratefully walked into the apartment as Hotch stood aside.

The experienced profiler observed the familial environment he had interrupted but caught JJ's attention, nevertheless, disrupting the scene. "JJ, can the boys go and play?"

Nodding, JJ turned to the small boys. "Hey guys, can you go into Jack's room and finish off your colouring?"

"But you and daddy are helping!" Jack complained with a frown similar to his fathers'.

Smiling at his son's reaction, Hotch indicated towards the corridor. "We'll help later, buddy. The grown-ups need to talk. Can you hold Henry's hand to your room?"

Happily, the elder boy took hold of the two year olds and left the three adults to themselves. "Dave, what's going on?" Hotch asked curiously.

"Look, this isn't my place but you've been lied to enough." Rossi looked to JJ who scrunched her face in confusion while hesitantly joining the two profilers in Hotch's living room.

"What's happened now?" JJ looked between the two men, Rossi sighed begrudgingly while Hotch shrugged in his own confusion.

Rossi ran a hand over his beard and looked to Hotch before facing the petite blonde again. "Prentiss is pregnant."

"What?" Hotch exclaimed with a frown, his head instantly turning to JJ who looked frozen as she stood in the middle of his living room. The Pennsylvanians face not showing any emotion as she stared forwards.

Rossi stepped towards the blonde resting a hand on her shoulder. "I just spoke to her and Will. She didn't want me to tell you, but I didn't want you to be blind sighted."

"Thanks, I guess." JJ replied with a hint of sarcasm, her eyes still not meeting either of the agents.

Hotch hinted to Rossi to move away from JJ, and the two men hovered near the door. The newly single mother, could hear muffled voices and barely registered Rossi leaving, before Hotch came to her side and led her to the couch.

Not comprehending what was going on, JJ felt her supervisor's arms, wrap around her body and force her head to rest on his broad chest. Once their breathing synchronised, the liaison realised that tears were falling down her cheeks but as her mascara ran, she made no sound.

"I don't want to cry." JJ muttered through a silent sob.

"You need to, JJ." Hotch insisted and waited until his friend closed her eyes before he allowed his fingers, to soothingly massage through her silky hair. "It's okay, I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere."

...

Poor JJ!

(BTW the timeline so far, is that JJ walked in on Will and Prentiss on a Wednesday night, the team spent Thursday and the Friday morning on the case in DC, which I purposefully left vague, and this chapter was an early Friday night, just in case anyone is getting confused, because I'm writing ahead, I forgot the timeline was only a few days long to begin with.)

Anyways, I love hearing from you all because then I can write shout outs!
