Disclaimer: As much as I want to, and no matter for how long I keep asking, I don't own Criminal Minds. A girl can dream though, and believe me … I have a Criminal Minds hoodie... beat that... it's mine... all mine... I am one step closer to owning this than any of you! Muahahaha!

JJ sighed, looking around her small house. She bit her lip, deciding to double check all the doors were locked for the tenth time since she got in. She couldn't shake the feeling that there was someone watching her, she hadn't been able to in a long time but it just seemed to get worse with time. The longer she let it carry on, the worse it got.
"It's all okay, there is nobody there. Nobody." She whispered to herself, still keeping her gun close to her. She ran to her windows, closing the curtains slowly. She could feel tears running down her face as her whole body shook with fear, she could only hope she was overreacting, she could only hope this was all because of the case. She could only hope.
"You're not a victim, you're an FBI agent." She whispered, looking around the house once more when she was sure everything was locked and secure. She knew she should tell someone, she had been feeling like it for so long, always feeling like there was someone behind her, someone watching her, someone waiting for her. And as much as she tried to shake that feeling, it never seemed to go away.
"Over-active imagination, just like mum told you when you were younger." She would have laughed at the amount she had spoken to herself in the past month alone if she wasn't so scared. She thought about calling Morgan or Emily, anyone as long as she wasn't alone, but she was too scared to admit that she couldn't cope on her own because as scared as she was, she was still trying to prove her worth in the team. As terrified as she was, she still didn't want to appear weak. As much as she didn't want to die, as much as she wanted to be safe, she was still too stubborn to say anything to anyone. No matter what.

She is starting to feel me there, she knows that I am watching her but she won't have to be scared of the unknown for long. Soon, I will make myself known to her. Soon, I will take her and she will stay with me forever.
I have spent three years, three whole years carefully planning out this plan. I have been safe, I have kept my distance until now. But soon, very soon, she will be mine. I can add her to my collection, she is not like the others though, she is so much stronger than any of those stupid women. They cried and cried, they refused to love me because I had taken them away from their lives – they never seemed to realize that I was doing them good. I loved them more than anyone else could, I loved them, I was the only thing that kept them safe and they didn't appreciate that. So I got rid of them one by one, until I finally found the perfect woman.
Jennifer Jareau will be mine. I will have her to myself, and she will fall in love with me. I don't want to hurt this one, I don't want to kill her like I did the others, she has to fall in love with me. She has to fall in love with me like I have her.
