I'm Fine

Chapter 7

Jj's Pov:

"Emily please answer your phone. Did I do something to upset you? Emily please. At least text me! I need to know your ok!" I frantically shouted into my phone. Emily has been missing for two hours. Yes I know two hours doesn't sound that long but she always answers my calls. Sometimes it's not right away but she always answers the third time I ring her. God where could she be!? I can't live my life without her. She's my everything.

I quickly dialed Penelope's number, "Pen! Can you connect everyone to the call?".

"Um.. yea. Is everything ok Jj?" She says while dialing everyone in, "ok everyone's here".

"Guys, Emily is missing. She won't answer her phone. And she always answers the third time I call her. I'm really worried" I say while trying to hold back tears.

Derek's deep voice rattles my phone, "Do you know where she last was?".

"No, well.. Only that she was taking a cab home".

"Penelope try tracking her phone. It might be turned off but at least try. Jj, Derek, Spencer, Rossi all come to the BAU. We need to find her before anything bad happens." Hotch says quickly before hanging up.

I turn my phone off and sigh. The wind whisks my hair all around my face, the crisp air nipping at my nose. I try to wrap myself in my jacket but the small amount of warmth doesn't do much. Chris left me at the bar, he found some other girl to take home. I don't care that he found someone else to sleep with, I'm just pissed because he was my ride home. Fuck now I'm stuck in the cold. I guess I'll call a cab.

About five minutes later the cab arrives.

"Where to?" The driver asks. I tell him my address and he begins driving. Suddenly I get a text from Penelope.

"I found the driver of the cab Emily took. But in the cab company there's no cab under the license plate Emily took. Don't take a cab. We'll send an agent to pick you up."

Oh fuck.

I begin to type "I'm already in a cab. I should be back at the BAU in ten minutes". I lift my head to see the cab driver eyeing me in the rear view mirror. Why does he look kind of familiar... he kinda looks like Will's friend Richard. Weird.

"Actually you can drop me off here" I say trying not to panic, while my mind races in the background. He didn't pull over. Maybe he just didn't hear me...

I took a deep breath and said again, with a more demanding tone, "Excuse me? I said you can pull over". I pulled on the door handle. But nothing. It didn't open.

"Let me out of the cab right now".

Thick sweet smelling smoke began to fill the back of the cab. Peppermint... it smells of peppermint. It's so inviting...-

Jj was sent to a catholic boarding school after her sister committed suicide. Her mother became resentful towards Jennifer and blamed her for Roslyn's death. Jennifer stayed at the boarding school for five years, her mental state crumbled the whole time she was there. Luckily, she developed a friendship with her roommate, Teia Dolivio. The two became inseparable, they would annoy the nuns on purpose, rebel against all of the rules, and run away in the middle of the day to the nearest town center. They both developed deeper feelings for eachother, Teia knew she was lesbian but Jj was still oblivious to her true feelings. Until one fateful night where Jj and Teia shared their first kiss underneath the stars in the middle of a field.
A nun caught the two sharing their intimate moment. She forced the girls to kneel in the church on the hard wooden floors for hours on end. Making them repeat 'Hail Mary' and 'Our Father' prayers over and over again. Teia refused to do so and was taken into a back room with the priest, Father Chris. Jj was sent back to her room to get ready for bed. In the middle of the night Teia came hobbling into their room. Blood chalked in the corners of her mouth, drenched in sweat, her hair scattered all over her head matted, her clothes ripped and torn to shreds.
