    Summary

    “You know,” Emily hesitated, “you can say whatever you need to. Tomorrow I may not matter to you so what do you have to lose?”

    Spoiler alert....she does matter. In more ways than one.

    Or the stranger JJ met the night before at a bar shows up in her superior's office primed and ready to not only fill the empty spot on the team, but fill an incredibly large void in JJ's life.

    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.”

    Summary

    JJ finally makes it to her seat and leans her head back to catch her breath. Her mind wanders to the stunning woman that had given her the greatest weekend of her life and the way her dark hair so elegantly fanned out across the stark white of the hotel room pillow. She feels a pang of regret for leaving without saying "goodbye", but knows it was for the best. When the plane takes off to take her back to DC, she finally lets it hit her that she may never see her again. JJ jams the heels of her hands into her eyes to stop the tears that are so desperate to fall. Worried that she may be making a scene to the people sitting next to her, JJ takes a deep breath and drags her hands down her face and feels something hard rub against her cheek. JJ's eyes go wide as they fall on a delicate gold band sitting comfortable on the third finger of her left hand.
    "Oh God. What did I do?"
