I do not own Criminal Minds

Emily lay on the examination table. Her shirt was pulled up over her stomach.

"How far along are you?" The nurse asked, quickly setting up the ultrasound equipment.

"A little over two months," Emily answered.

"Can you tell me exactly what happened?" The nurse asked, "I need to determine what the chance is that your baby got hurt."

The nurse already knew the background information that Emily had been attacked while entering a suspect's house.

"First he choked me, then pushed me to the ground, he pinned me there…" Emily trailed off looking around the room. This reminded her too much of Bates. When he pinned her to the ground, and what he did after. "Then he punched me a few times. That's all." She quickly finished.

"Okay, it doesn't sound like anything came in contact with your stomach, which is good," The nurse said as she finished setting up the equipment. She took out the gel and squeezed it on Emily's stomach. The screen was situated next to Emily and as the nurse moved the ultrasound around her stomach a rhythmatic beating came out of the monitor.

"You hear that?" The nurse asked, "That is your baby's heart beat." The nurse smiled at Emily.

Emily stared wide eyes at the monitor, her baby was okay!

"Right here," the nurse pointed to a small circle on the screen, "This is the baby's head."

Emily drew her breath in as she saw her baby's head. She couldn't believe this was happening, she couldn't believe she was going to be a mother.

"I'll print out these pictures so you can show you friends," The nurse offered.

Emily quickly nodded her head. The nurse printed the pictures and then started to put away the equipment. Emily wiped off her stomach and then pulled her shirt back down.

"Another thing," The nurse said, "I don't want you working in the field again until the baby is born. That means arrest warrants, under cover, talking to a suspect, anything that would put you or your baby at risk. I read your file and I know that recently you have been in a great deal of danger and that can't happen anymore."

Emily was so happy to see that her baby was okay that she agreed to what the nurse had said without any argument.

"Here you go," The nurse handed Emily the pictures from the ultrasound, "We are going to need to see you back here in a few months."

Emily nodded and left the room. She had already been treated for her nose, which was officially broken, so a stiff white paper had been put around it. But at least this meant she could leave. Emily entered the waiting room and saw JJ sitting there.

"Jayje!" Emily ran over to her. Involuntarily tears filled her eyes, "my baby's okay."

JJ stood up and pulled Emily into a tight hug, "That's the first time I've heard you call the baby yours."

Emily nodded and pulled out of the hug and quickly took out the pictures the nurse had given to her, "Look!"

JJ took the pictures and looked through them, "Oh Em!"

Emily smiled back at her friend. "Where's the rest of the team?" She asked.

"They had to go fill out all the paper work. Morgan said he would take care of ours." JJ explained.

"I would never turn down an opportunity for Morgan to work for us," Emily laughed.

"So do you want to go out for dinner?" JJ asked Emily.

"Actually there's something I need to take care of first. How about we meet at my house in an hour?" Emily offered.

"Sounds good," JJ didn't asked Emily about what she needed to do.

JJ left the hospital and Emily turned around and walked down the hall.


"Hey Samantha," Emily said as she entered the hospital room, "I'm Emily Prentiss."

"I remember you," Samantha said, "You were the one that beat up that man."

Emily laughed, "Yes, I guess I did do that."

"Thank you for finding me," Samantha said.

"We all did that. How are you feeling?" Emily asked as she sat down in the chair by Samantha's bed.

"I'm fine." Samantha answered.

Another way of how she is like me, Emily thought.

"Don't do that," Emily said.

Samantha looked at her with questioning eyes.

"About two months ago I was taken by a man," Emily started to explain. "He had me for a few days until my team came and found me. I was so scared about my team finding out what he did to me, because I thought they would think I was weak. I tried to hide everything and was ashamed of how I was feeling. But I found out I was wrong. You know why? Because I found someone who cared and who I knew wouldn't judge me," Emily said thinking of JJ. "Samantha, you need to find someone to talk to, it will help you. Take it from me. I'm not an open person but when you find someone you can talk to it changes things."

Samantha nodded.

"Do you promise me you will do that? Do you promise you won't try to hide what happened?" Emily asked.

"I promise," Samantha whispered.

Emily heard the door open from behind her.

"Samantha?" A young girl asked from the doorway.

"Lynn." Samantha said back.

Lynn ran over and hugged Samantha.

Emily stood up to leave, "Don't forget your promise."

"I won't" Samantha smiled, nodding to her friend Lynn.

Emily smiled back and left the room. She had a feeling that Samantha was going to be okay.


Emily arrived back to her apartment 45 minutes later. She left her door unlocked and went to take a shower. She stepped into the shower and washed the day off. When she finished she stepped out and dressed into jeans and a navy blue top. She brushed her hair out and walked out of her bedroom. She walked into the kitchen and saw JJ standing there pulling out plates for the Chinese she had brought. JJ was wearing dark pants and an elegant red shirt. Her hair was pin strait. In other words she was gorgeous.

The two of them sat down and devoured their food. When they were finished JJ looked at Emily, "When are you going to tell the rest of the team?" JJ was referring to the pregnancy.

"Tomorrow," Emily decided.

The two of them moved to the couch, as they had last time JJ was over.

"I talked to Samantha," Emily told JJ, "I really think she is going to be okay."

"That's great," JJ smiled, and stared into Emily's eyes. Emily gazed back. She saw the eyes of someone who was amazing. Someone who had always, and will always be there for her. The eyes of someone who loved her. But most of all, the eyes of someone she loved.
