A/N: Hi! Thanks for all of the reviews! You are great and make me want to write more!;)

To clarify somethings on JJ's memory loss. When JJ went unconscious at the end of chapter 15, she gained a lot of her memory back. She thinks the has gained everything, but has she really?

Chapter 22:

"Jennifer Jareau. Would you like to go to dinner with me?"

"Are you asking me out on a date Prentiss?" JJ smirked.

"Agent! It's Agent Prentiss!" Emily rolled her eyes. "But yeah, I guess I am Agent Jareau."

"In that case, I'd love to go to dinner with you."

After JJ had agreed to go on a date with the brunette, the two women went inside to relax. Around 7, Emily told JJ to dress warm for their date, and left the house.

With Emily gone, JJ tried to get ready for their date. She looked through her clothes, looking for something warm, but also something she looked good in. She went into her walk-in closet in search for a sweatshirt.

"So, you thought you could escape me?" JJ froze. That voice. "You thought you could run away, to be a big city girl, huh?" She could feel someone breath on her skin, and the hair on her neck stood up.

No! This isn't happening!

"Oh, this is happening! You will NEVER be able to hide from me Jennifer! I'll always find you!"

"NO! Please! Please, leave me alone!" JJ curled up in a ball and started to sob uncontrolled and heavy. "Please, someone save me!" Her plea was drowned in a horrible laughter, that JJ knew would hunt her in her sleep. Her whole body was shaking and she tried to shield her head with her hands.

"JJ?" After Emily had knocked on JJ's door twice without the blonde answering, she used the key to lock herself in, thinking JJ was in the bathroom. The brunette carried a bouquet of white lilies.

"JJ? Where are you?" By now Emily started to get a little worried. JJ hadn't left? No, her car was still in outside. Emily worked her way through the kitchen and living room before heading towards the bathroom. As she came closer to the bathroom she heard something that sounded like whimpering. Stopping dead on her track, Emily tried to locate where the sound came from.

She moved rapidly to the blondes bedroom door and carefully opened the door. The room was dark and Emily could hear JJ's sobs and pleas for help.

"Please, leave me alone! Please, someone save me!" Emily's heart broke and she tossed the flowers on the bed before slowly approaching the blonde's closet.

"JJ, sweetie, it's me, Emily!" She spoke softly as she bent down to sit on the floor next to the shivering form of the blonde FBI agent. "Come on, JJ. Snap out of it. Listen to my voice. I am here and I will never let anything hurt you." Very carefully Emily reached out and touched JJ's shoulder.

She felt someone grab her shoulder and she screamed. She tried to shake the hand off.

How did this happen?

"Jay, you have to believe me. It's me love, Emily. Come back to me!" Emily? JJ was confused, was that even possible. Even though she didn't know how she could hear Emily's voice, she decided to listen to her.

"Snap out of it, baby! It's only in your mind. You are safe here with me!" She felt someones hand on her shoulder again, but this time she didn't shake it off. Whoever it was, gripped her shoulder more tightly and cradled arms around her. For a moment she tensed up, afraid that it was her hunter, but Emily's voice calmed her down again.

"Sshhh, love. Nothing can hurt you. I am here and I will never, ever let anyone hurt you!" JJ felt someone softly rocking her body and stroking her back.

When JJ let Emily out her arms around her, the brunette quickly pulled the blond onto her lap. She whispered soothing things softly in her ear and rocked her body.

"I promise you that no one will hurt you Jay. I will protect you with everything I have. But please come back to me!" Emily felt tears fall from her eyes and down her cheeks as she held the woman she was starting to fall in love with. Her heart ached and she wanted nothing more than take away JJ's pain. Emily knew she would sit like this for as long as it would take, so she kept whispering to JJ that she was there.

Suddenly JJ's eyes shot open.

"Emily?" The blonde's eyes were full of tears and she looked scared.

"Yeah, I'm here baby!" Emily hugged JJ tightly to her chest as the younger woman started to sob and cling to her. Emily closed her eyes and let the tears flow down, from relief that JJ had manage to get out of her dark place, but also of the pain that whatever this was for the blonde.

The two of them sat on the floor of JJ's closet, JJ in Emily's arms, the brunette trying her best to comfort the blonde. And eventually JJ started to calm down. Her sobs stopped, and she tried to breath properly.

"Hey baby." When JJ entangled herself from Emily, the older woman slowly brought her hand up to JJ's face and gently stroke away the remaining of her tears. JJ tried to speak, but she couldn't manage to form words and her eyes started to tear up again.

"Sshh. Sweetie, let's try breathing first, okay? Breath with me, deep breaths." Emily placed her arms around JJ again and started to breath slowly. JJ's breathing slowed down and soon the blonde was asleep in Emily's arms.

Emily tried to get on her feet, but felt JJ's hand tighten her grip on the shirt the profiler wore. The brunette shifted so she could get up, but made sure JJ could still grip her shirt. Emily somehow manage to get to her feet and lifted JJ up in her arms. She carried the sleeping blonde over to the bed and tried to lay her down. Again she felt JJ's grip on her shirt tighten. Emily quickly kicked off her shoes and moved JJ towards the center of the bed. The brunette gripped the comforter and pulled it over the two of them, before she drew JJ closer and wrapped her arms protectively around the woman how she would do anything for.

A/N: Did this answer any questions? Or have I only left you more confused?
