Hotch's POV
"Aaron this case just needs a little break. Go to the room and sleep. I'll be up in a second." Rossi was telling me.

I obliged and went to the room. I took a chance to shower and get ready for bed before the phone rang.

"Hi this is the front desk with a call for room 304." The lady said before the message played.

"Hiya Hotchy. I hear you are looking for me. You actually got quite close today. But you made a wrong decision. Maybe I'll see you on the news tomorrow. I'd hate for that family to get terrorized."

It was the unsub. I wrote everything down and David came in as I replayed the call in my head.

I explained everything that happened and we talked about the case before he fell asleep. I continued working before calling it a night.

Emily's POV
I stayed up for at least an hour after Elle and Spencer. Something about this case is scary. I think it's JJ.

I know she can do this but I feel useless. I can't help as much as I wish I could. I looked at her laying down and she's perfect.

The way her hair fell was angelic. I sat next to her and she started to move. It's probably just a dream.

Lightly, I rubbed her back to try and calm her down. I took that as a sign to fall asleep.

I woke up an hour later to Elle rushing over to a frantic JJ. She was still sleeping, but kicking and fighting something.

Elle tried to wake her up and I joined in. Eventually she woke up with a heavy breath.

"Jennifer, it was just a dream. We are right here with you. You are ok." I said trying to calm her down. Elle went back to bed and JJ apologized.

"It was like I couldn't stop Roslyn. I couldn't help her. I just kept finding her, over and over." She whispered.

"We are right here. You are ok. It was just a dream." I messed her forehead and she dug her head into my neck.

I stayed up even longer. I didn't want her to be afraid of the dream again.
