Summary
Emily pulled her phone out and let her thumb hover over JJ’s contact. With a shake of her head, she scrolled down and pressed a different contact. Emily held the phone to her ear, closing her eyes briefly to keep her control in place.
“Hey, Princess. You couldn’t-”
“Morgan.” She cut him off aggressively. “Did you drive to Baltimore? Or JJ?”
“I did. What’s going on?”
“Don’t give JJ the keys. I need you to hand her the phone.” When he was about to protest again, she added a firm “please”.
“Yeah, yeah. She’s right here.”
Emily heard the crackling of the phone switching hands and then JJ spoke into the phone cautiously. “Em, what’s wrong?”
Emily took another small breath and tried to keep her voice as calm as possible. “There was a shooting at Henry’s school. I don’t really have any information, it seemed to have just happened, but Hotch and I are on the way.” Emily powered through as JJ started sputtering. Emily could already hear her starting to hyperventilate. “Jennifer, I promise you, I will get him out of there.”Bookmarked by Poems_PerfectRhyme
