AN- sorry I should have added this onto end of the last update, but I thought it would be appropriate that the break before the next part be at the end of this piece.
Emily POV
"I'm pregnant" After hearing the words my mind went blank. It's like my mind just overloaded and shut down, then suddenly an overflow of thoughts drowned me. 'She's pregnant…with HIS baby!…' I was so busy keeping my distance from her, reality came crashing down and struck me hard, she was with Will LaMontagne.
I had pushed her away from me and this is what happens. Feeling her eyes on me I looked up into baby blue eyes, she looked tired, a mix of expressions on her face, a look of concern, a search of approval and…fear? She didn't look like the JJ that I knew her to be, usually strong and sure of herself, it looked like she hadn't been sleeping well. I blinked, feeling the awkwardness creeping in, I forced a smile and stood from my chair, huskily speaking realizing how dry my throat had become "congratulations", It came out quite in comparison to the happy uproar from Garcia who was jumping up to hug her.
"I'll be going on maternity leave in 2 months, don't worry my replacement will be here and trained to help out while I am gone" JJ said through the crowd made up by Penelope, Derek and Reid. I just stood in place for a moment, not really wanting to join the group. Our little connection broke as her attention was stolen by the clamor.
I guess there was some small part of me that had hoped it wouldn't work out. It was one thing for her to be with someone, but to get pregnant meant long term, and whatever little hope was left within me, was stripped away.
Just then another agent came in and handed Hotch a file. He flipped through it quickly "I'm sorry to interrupt this happy moment, but it looks like we have another case"
With that said, my posture changed and my mind shook all other thoughts out as Agent Prentiss readied herself to do the only thing that mattered, her job.
