Darkness Ch5

"JJ, I.. I how did you know that I was here?" Emily asked confused

"your girlfriend came to the BAU, she said that there was an accident and all you would say was my name.. so I came"

"you didn't have to, I know that you are busy with Will, and Henry"

"Emily I will always come when you call, you should know that by now"

Amorette took that as her cue to leave and let the women talk… she slowly made her way out of the room trying to go unnoticed, of course the other women were both profilers but they didn't seem to care at that moment.

"JJ, I.."

"Em, please not right now," JJ could tell from Emily's face that she wanted to have a serious conversation and JJ was right now was not the time nor the place. The women just sat there in silence for a few minutes and were only disrupted by the sound of JJ's phone ringing..

Of course a case had come up and even though they knew about Emily they couldn't spare JJ to stay back.

JJ just looked at Emily as if to take her in, as if she didn't know the next time that she would see the woman again. Emily could see the sadness in JJ.

"don't worry Jennifer, I am not going anywhere I will be here when you get back"..

JJ just smiled she hoped that Emily was telling the truth, but after 2 years she was a little skeptical..

All JJ could think about while she was on the case was Emily, she knew that she was suppose to focus, but she couldn't get the images of Emily laying in that hospital bed out of her mind. Thankfully the case didn't take very long. They were on their way back home in 2 days.

JJ didn't even call will to tell him that they were coming home. The first place that she wanted to go was to see Emily, she had to make sure that the woman that she loved was still there, that she hadn't left again.

When JJ got to the hospital she was surprised to see that Emily was alone, watching tv.

"Where's Amorette"

"out apartment hunting, she said that even if we weren't ready to talk about our feelings for each other, she knew that she could never compare to my love for you"

"oh, Em, I'm sorry.. I didn't mean to come between you two, it's just that when I heard that you were here I had to come and make sure that you were ok."

"it's ok JJ really, if I understand it right it was actually me that blew it.. Even after 2 years with another woman you are still the one that I want to be with.. I know that you are with will and I know that you have Henry. Things are complicated and I know that we may not have a future, but JJ I would love to be able to step back into the role of your best friend.. I have missed you so much."

Oh, Em.. I have missed you too, everyday, all the time I find myself thinking about you, where you where? What you were doing? If you were ok? If you had found happiness? Emily I am so happy that you are back, and yes I am married to and yes we do have Henry, but we are not happy, he knows that something is off, and he knows that I haven't been myself since you left. I just don't think that he has come to conclusion that I love you Emily Prentiss, I have since the day you walked into the office."

With that JJ walked closer now with a small gap in between the two women JJ took Emily hand and then she reached down to kiss her. It wasn't even 5 minutes later that JJ noticed the time and with as much as she wanted to stay with Emily she had to go home to her son, and husband.. So she gave Emily another kiss, and told her that she would be back tomorrow.

As JJ walked away, Emily couldn't help but wonder if this was going to be the same game all over again.. what she didn't know is that in JJ's mind she was wondering how this was going to play out when she told Will that she was leaving him…

That's it for this chapter.. Next Chapter Emily will get out of the hospital and more decisions are made..
