"I can't be pregnant. I haven't even felt sick!" JJ exclaimed.
"But have you been eating more? More tired than usual? What about nauseous when looking at crime scene photos?" Will questioned. JJ was going to respond with 'no', but the more she thought about it, the more she realized that it was all true.
"I can't be." JJ whispered.
"Mind telling me when this all happened?" Emily finally spoke.
"It was just a drunken mistake. We both were really drunk, and one thing led to another. I swear." JJ said.
"Are you sure about that? Why don't you-"
"I think it's time for you to go." JJ told Will before he said anything else. She knew exactly what he was going to say to Emily.
"No. She deserves-"
"Will, I swear to God if you don't leave this property, I'm going to call the cops." JJ warned. Will just chuckled and shook his head.
"You deserve better than her, Emily." Will said before walking away. JJ looked at Emily and saw tears rolling down her face.
"Baby, please-" JJ tried to talk to Emily, but she turned around and walked inside. JJ sighed and followed behind her. Derek saw Emily wiping her face, so he asked her what was wrong. She told him that she was fine and put on her best fake smile. Emily avoided JJ the entire time, and everyone noticed. They knew something was wrong between them but didn't want to pry. They figured they would tell someone when they're ready to. After everyone had left besides Henry, Emily decided it was time for her to go some place that JJ isn't.
"I'm going to head out." Emily said, grabbing her coat.
"Where are you going? It's almost midnight." JJ said.
"Somewhere that you aren't." Emily said and left. She ended up walking a few blocks over to a bar. She chose a seat at the bar and ordered a few shots of tequila. As she was waiting for the bartender to complete her order, a woman sat next to her.
"Looks like you've had a rough night." the mystery woman said.
"Oh, you know, just finding out my girlfriend is pregnant with her ex's baby." Emily said. The bartender sat the shots in front of her, and she thanked him.
"Oh. Well that is certainly a twist." she said.
"Yeah. Honestly, I don't even know why she even chose to be with me. I mean, she had the perfect life before we even started dating. She had a husband, a child, a great job. Then all of a sudden she just likes me? I haven't had the greatest life, and I'm certainly not the perfect person. I guess she just got tired of me and decided to go back to her ex-husband." Emily said. She downed her shots as the mystery woman was speaking.
"She just left her husband? Just like that?" she asked.
"Yup. I don't know why. I thought it was because she genuinely loved me, but now this has me questioning everything. I mean, of all guys to have sex with, she chooses her ex-husband?" Emily said.
"It could be because she knows him. But she's stupid to cheat on such a beautiful woman." she said. Emily chuckled and could feel herself to bluch a little bit.
"I don't think I got your name." Emily said. She turned her head to the brunette woman and looked into her eyes. She realized that they were a gorgeous shade of blue.
"Brandi. Brandi Desmond."
"I'm Emily. Emily Prentiss." They shook hands while still looking into each others' eyes.
"Lets go back to my place." Brandi said. Emily thought about it before agreeing. She paid for her three shots and followed Brandi to her car. Brandi drove to her house, and once they were inside, Emily had Brandi pinned against the wall, kissing her with hunger.
The next morning, Emily woke up to her phone alerting her that she had a new message. She opened it and saw that it was Hotch informing that there is a case. Emily felt Brandi roll over before speaking. "Is everything okay?" she asked softly.
"Yeah. I just have to head into work." Emily said.
"This early? It's only four in the morning." Brandi pointed out.
"I'm basically on call 24 hours." Emily said.
"Are you a doctor or something?" Brandi asked.
"Not quite. FBI, actually." Emily said.
"Huh. I always pictured the FBI to be old men." Brandi said, which caused Emily to chuckle.
"I guess you misjudged the FBI then." Emily said.
"Oh I definitely did." Brandi said with a smirk. Emily leaned down and kissed her. "You know, instead of wearing your clothes from yesterday, you can borrow something of mine." Brandi said.
"Are you sure? I mean, what are the chances of us seeing each other again?" Emily asked.
"Well..." Brandi trailed off. She grabbed a pen and paper and wrote down her phone number. "Now we can see each other again." Emily smiled before standing up. She picked out an outfit from Brandi's closet and noticed the police uniform.
"I guess we both missed the opportunity to use handcuffs." Emily said with a smirk. She got around before Brandi took her to the FBI building. She got out of the car after kissing Brandi goodbye and walked in, not noticing that JJ had witnessed the kiss. JJ felt like her heart had been ripped out of her chest.
"Uh, those aren't your clothes." Derek pointed out.
"And how would you know that? I could've gone shopping." Emily said.
"Because they're not your usual style. You also don't have your go bag in your hand like you usually do." he said.
"I have an extra go bag at my desk in case I forget it." Emily said.
"What's going on between you and JJ?" Derek asked. He knew Emily must've had a one night stand because she never forgets her go bag.
"Lets focus on the case and not JJ and I." Emily said coldly. Derek notice JJ walk in looking like she had been crying. He wanted to get to the bottom of what was going on.
After the case was presented, JJ tried to talk to Emily, but Emily just ignored her. Emily sat next to Derek on the jet and didn't even look towards JJ. After arriving in Casper, Wyoming, the team immediately got to work. It was a long day trying to come up with as much information as possible, but unfortunately the information was little help. Hotch decided it was time for the team to go to the hotel and get some sleep. However, Derek had other plans. He went to Emily's room and knocked. She answered it and looked at him with a glare. "I just want some sleep." Emily said.
"Please tell me what's going on with you and JJ. I know you most likely don't want to talk about it, but I also know you. I know if you don't tell anyone, then you will just bottle it up. You can trust me." Derek said. Emily didn't want to talk to Derek, but she knew he was right. She knows she told Brandi, but she didn't really go into detail about how she felt. Just the surface about how she felt.
Tears welled up in Emily's eyes, so Derek decided to hug her. Emily hugged him tightly and just cried. Emily was one that never cries, so Derek knew it was bad. He just held her and allowed her to cry on his shoulder for however long she needed. After a couple minutes of crying, Emily wiped her eyes and let him go into her room. "JJ cheated on me with Will, and now she's pregnant." Emily said. She carried on and went into detail about how she really felt. Derek didn't really have any words. He tried his best to be encouraging. On the inside, he was mad at JJ for cheating on Emily. JJ's room was right across from Emily's. She couldn't hear what was being said, but she heard Emily crying. She curled up into a ball and cried herself to sleep.
