Left Us - Emily Prentiss

Start from the beginning
                                    

The Therapy?

Sleepless nights?

She missed the day Gracie was born just to fake her death.

Why'd she do it?

I snap out my thoughts once I hear Gracie crying, I wipe my tears before picking her up gently making her go silent.

"Let's go take you a bath." I say caressing her cheek causing her to open her eyes

I get out bed heading to the kitchen sink, with her flower seat for the sink taking her a bath making her and me smile.

"My happy baby." I say in a baby voice making her smile

I wash her hair, behind her ears and any other crevices before washing her off. I wrap her in a soft towel going to her room, put her on another diaper and t-shirt onesie.

"What do you wanna do?" I ask as she lay in my lap as my legs are bent
"You're just gonna sleep all day." I say brushing her hair

She starts falling asleep on me so I give her tiny hands a kiss before laying her on my chest.

I stand up placing her in her rocker downstairs before beginning to make cookies.

As I finish mixing the batter I let it sit in the fridge for a bit preheating the oven. I sit down in front of Gracie as she babbles in baby talk making me smile softly. I turn on some music connect to the Bluetooth but not too loud.

I stand up to get ready to put the cookies in the oven now it's just time to wait until it's finish.

I grab my phone, immediately calling JJ.

"Hey Y/-" She starts but I cut her off
"Did you know?" I say looking at my wedding ring
"Y/n what are talking about?" She asks confused
"You know what I'm talking about JJ. Did you know she was alive?" I asks and she gasps
"Yes I did know." She says making me shake my head with tears falling
"Well I guess I should choose family better." I say about to hang up
"Would let me explain?" She says rather loudly
"Explain what, that ever since Emily disappeared I came to you. You were there for me and my child because you were my shoulder to lean on but you knew the whole time. I just can't believe that you of all people would do that to me." I say sighing before hanging up

JJ POV:

"Shit." I mumble as y/n hang up the phone

"Everything okay JJ?" Hotch asks
"Y/n's not taking the news of Emily being back so well." I say putting my phone on the table
"Well how would you feel if you were in her shoes?" He says grabbing the case
"Pissed." I say looking at him
"Exactly." He says before walking out the door

"What's going on?" Emily asks as I just stare at the table
"Y/n's mad at me. A bit passed mad." I say as she sits at the table
"It's about me huh." She says and I nod
"I was there for her and Gracie, I've seen her on all her worst days but this hurt her on a much deeper level." I say and she stares at me
"Her names Gracie?" She asks and I nod
"Grace Claire Y/l/n-Prentiss." I say and she smiles
"I hope she's willing to talk to me later." Emily says
"You went by the house?" I asks and she nods
"That's the first place I wanted to be." She says smiling

Y/N POV:

After the phone call, I take the cookies out the oven setting them on a drying rack before grabbing Gracie.

Time Skip

I just finished eating dinner, right now I'm sitting in the living room feeding Grace. I hear knocking on the door so I go to check seeing Emily standing there.

"Yes?" I say opening the door
"I-Can I come in?" She asks nervously
"It's still your house, act like it." I say letting her in
"How are you? You look beautiful." She says smiling walking to the living room
"I've been better. And thank you. Do you want some dinner?" I asks burping Gracie
"Um, that would be great if you don't mind. Is there still wine in the storage room?" She asks and I nod gently swaying with Grace in my arms
"Like I said Emily, every inch of this is house is still partly your so act like you actually want to be here." I say looking her in the eyes
"Ok." She says walking away to the storage room

I look down in my arms to see Gracie sleeping snoring softly, I put her back in her rocker keeping her asleep as I make Emily some dinner.

"I found some good stuff." She says smiling walking back in the room
"Good, now sit and eat." I say taking it pouring it in a glass leaving her no space to fuss
"Thank you." She says smiling softly before sitting down at the counter

I lean back crossing my arms just staring at her as she eats looking around.

"Staring is rude, you know." She jokes making me raise my eyebrow at her
"Not in a joking mood, got it." She mumbles looking back down at her plate
"I'm just trying to fit my thoughts around your presence again." I say motioning to her
"I've been wanting to asks you something though." She says pushing her plate away
"What is it?" I say pushing my hair behind my ear
"My ring. Do you have it?" She says looking at mine on my finger

I walk to our bedroom going into my nightstand grabbing her wedding ring. I walk back to the kitchen, sitting in the stool next to her exhaling hard turning to her causing her to turn to me.

"Do you Emily Prentiss, take this ring to show that you are mine and do by your vows and be here for our family, through weakness and in health?" I asks as tears bubble in my eyes
"I do, always." She says smiling as tears fall down both our cheeks

I slide her ring on her finger before looking up smashing our lips together the familiarity of her lips makes all the old feelings rush back.

"I love you so much." She says as we pull away pulling me into a hug
"I love you more, I've never stopped." I say sniffling a bit

Our love was never gone.
