Chapter 47:
Morgan, Emily and some NOPD officers went in the house first. Leaving the NOPD officers to clear the kitchen and livingroom, Morgan and Emily made their way upstairs. All the door were open, except the one that led to the bed room. The two agents stopped outside the door and looked at each other.
"On three!" Morgan mouthed and held up three fingers. "One...Two...Three!" Emily kicked the door open and Morgan went in first.
"FBI!" They shouted simultaneously and moved around the room to clear it. Morgan on the right side, Emily on the left. They moved in sync, covering both themselves and the other. In the back of the room there was a big walk in closet and the two of them worked their way towards it. The two agents silently communicated with each other, agreeing on a plan. They were right in front of the closet now, both guessed that it was there their UnSub hid. Morgan reached forward to open the door.
"Y'all good in here?" One of the officers came nonchalantly through the door, making both agents turn around.
The closet door opened and three things happened in a blur. One, the two agents spun around. Two, four shots rung out. Three, two people fell to the floor.
A gentle knock on the doorframe made JJ look up from the picture she was looking at.
"Hi gumdrop. How are you holding up?" Garcia walked through the door carrying two coffee cups.
"Oh, coffee! How I love you!" JJ mumbled and reached for one of the cups. "I feel better. Hotch gave Emily some off time, so we video chatted for a while." A small smile tugged the corners of JJ's mouth upwards.
"Good! I'm glad you're feeling better!" Garcia sat down in the chair in front of JJ's desk. "What 'cha looking at?" JJ held up the picture for her friend to see and the older blonde smiled as she saw the picture.
"I tok this!" She happily exclaimed. "You guys are so cute!"
The two women fell into easily chatter, talking about Emily and JJ's relationship and their trip to Norway. Garcia asked about anything and everything, she wanted to know what color the buses and subways were, what the food was like, the colors and pictures of the money and how the sex was.
"PEN!" JJ blushed and looked down at her desk.
"What? I only ask if Emily was good in bed?" Garcia smirked, JJ blushed even more. "So that means that the sex is really good. Or that you haven't had any yet!" Garcia said playfully.
"If I answer, can we talk about something else then?" Garcia just smiled and winked.
"Well, if you must know, Emily and I don't have sex!" Garcia's mouth fell open and she looked shocked.
"You...But... Don't?" JJ started to laugh at Garcia's lack of words.
"Just playing with you Pen!" The younger blonde smiled, "Sex with Emily is indescribable." She smiled shyly and blushed a bit.
"Naaww..! Look at little JJ blushing!" Garcia had recovered fast and was now back to smirking. JJ crumbled a piece of paper and tossed it at her best friend, and the war broke out.
Garcia was aiming at JJ and ready to toss her paper ball when her phone rang. She picked it up, and her heart sank as soon as she saw Hotch's name on the screen. Usually Morgan always called her after their raids.
"Hello?"
"Hi Hotch. How'd the raid go?"
"Are they okay?"
"What about...?"
"Are you sure?"
"Okay, see you soon."
JJ looked frightened at Garcia.
"Tell me!" she whispered.
"They raided the UnSub's house, and he was hiding in the closet in his bedroom. Derek and Emily were about to clear it, but then some idiot officer came into the room and tok their focus. The UnSub jumped out of the closet and shot Emily." Garcia tok a pause and JJ gasped, tears forming in her eyes.
"Pen, is she...?"
"She was lucky. Just a hit to the vest. She's bruised and soar, but fine. Both Derek's and Emily's shot hit the UnSub and killed him, while idiot cop's shot actually gazed Derek's arm."
JJ just stared blankly ahead of her. Emily, her Emily was shot. As soon as Garcia said she was lucky, she began to breath again. How did this happen? She needed to see Emily.
JJ shot up from her seat and started to throw her things in her purse.
"JJ?" Garcia looked worried at the young woman. "JJ?" she tried to get through, but she got no response. JJ was moving fast around the room, collecting her things.
"JENNIFER ADRIANNA JAREAU!" At the sound of her full name, JJ froze. Garcia moved from her chair and pulled JJ into a embrace. "I know you're scared honey, but she's gonna be alright!" Garcia stroke her back and whispered softly to the woman in distress.
"Do you have you're go bag with you today JJ?"
"Yeah, why?"
"We're off to New Orleans in 5 minutes."
"But... We... They... How?" she finally got out.
"Well, Agent Newman heard what happened with Anderson, and us borrowing their jet is a part of his apology."
"Oh!"
"Yup. Ready to go JJ? She's waiting for you!"
"Guys come on! I'm fine!" Emily whined. She was dressed in a hospital gown.
"There is no way I'm letting you out of this bed!" The always calm David Rossi, looked a little scared.
"Come on, Dave! You're not afraid of the doctors are you?" Emily mocked. She really, really wanted to get out of the stupid gown, out of the unnecessary hospital and home. Home to JJ.
"Nah, the doctors are alright. But your girlfriend will kill me if she found out I let you out of here without being properly examined." Much to Emily's annoyance the rest of her team snickered and nodded.
"I'm going to go and check on Morgan." Hotch smiled a little and walked out of the room. Emily sighed again, this was going to take a loooong time. Looking around, she saw Rossi reading a file and Reid watching his phone like it had a key that just appeared from nothing.
"Something wrong with your phone Reid?" Emily asked teasingly and the genius's head shot up.
"Oh, no. I'm just waiting for Eva to answer." He smiled a little.
"Don't hang around here Reid, go and find her." Emily smiled. She was truly happy for her friend, he deserved someone nice, and Eva seamed really nice.
"You sure?" When she nodded, he gave her a big smile before walking out of the room. Emily smiled until the door closed. She closed her eyes tightly and tried to ignore the pain.
"And that's why you're not going anywhere." Rossi spoke. He had looked up moments before to see his friend in pain.
"Come on Rossi. I just really want to go home to JJ." Emily opened her eyes and looked pleadingly at the older man.
"Emily, you were just shot. Don't think I'll let you go home! And it's not like you and JJ can do THAT right away either." The older man smirked when Emily blushed.
"Rossi! Like we would do that!"
"Do what?" Emily's head shot up and she turned as fast as she could on the bed. The movement caused her to cry out in pain.
"Rossi! Like we would do that!"
"Do what?" JJ entered the room, and watched as her girlfriend turned too fast around and cried out in pain.
"Are you alright?" JJ rushed to Emily's side and grabbed her hand.
"Yeah, I'm fine!" Emily was breathing heavily with her eyes closed and looked like she was in a lot of pain. "Just gimme a minute Jen." JJ just nodded and used her thumb to stroke the back of Emily's hand.
Even though she was in a lot of pain, Emily was happy. JJ was here! As the pain started to dull she opened her eyes and were instantly met with her girlfriend's clear blue.
"Hi" Emily lifted her hand to touch JJ's cheek.
"Hi. You scared me!" JJ tried to hold back her tears.
"I know! I'm sorry, baby!" Emily caressed JJ's check and soon the blonde let her tears fall.
"Sshh.. Baby, it's going to be alright." Emily whispered. Slowly, to not cause any movement that would be painful, she moved over in the bed. "Come here baby." She patted the spot next to her, and it didn't take long for JJ to care fully climb into the bed with her. Normally JJ would never do anything like that, but right now she needed Emily and she knew Emily needed her.
Emily carefully pulled JJ close and wrapped her arms around her. Both women sighed happily.
"I missed you, Jen!"
"I missed you too, Em!"
Tired from the emotional day the two lovers were soon fast asleep in each others arms.
