TW: Mentions of self harm

Emily's POV

"Babe what do you wanna do today? Since Henrys hanging out with Pen I think we should do absolutely nothing" I say as I start to shower to get ready for the day
"We need to clean the apartment then we can do nothing, deal?" JJ said as she brushed her teeth
"Ok cool, hey can you hand me a new shaving razor under the sink, I still haven't gotten mine back since my relapse" I've only been about a month and a half free from self harm but JJ still wont give me back my stupid razor, I feel like a gorilla with this much hair on my legs.
"Fine but Im staying in the bathroom while you shave because you really aren't supposed to have any sharp objects for the next 3 months" I dont know why she makes such a big deal about this, I only relapsed onecs because of my stupid mother.

*Flashback*

JJ's POV

~Knock Knock Knock~
"I'll get it babe" Emily said as she got up from the couch. I'm so glad she got up because I was so comfy on the couch, plus Henry was sleeping on me.
I knew something was wrong when as soon as she opened the door, she slammed it shut and locked the door.
"Who was that Em?"
"Nobody, just watch your show" Emily said as she walked away to her office.

Curiosity killed me and I picked Henry up off me and laid him back on the couch before I went to check who was at the door. As I saw who was at the door, I dont blame Em for slamming it. It was her evil mom, the mom who neglected Em her whole life because she wanted what was best for her career and not her child, also she's a total homophobe and neglected Em for being intersexual - even though she was the one who birthed her. I opened the door to see a very pissed off woman in front of me

"Ambassador Prentiss, what can I do for you?" I said in a more harsh tone then I intended
"I need to talk to my daughter, regarding her disease" At this point I was livid because 1, she was referring to Emily having a dick, 2 she has no right to walk into my home and start demanding things, and 3, it's not even a disease, it's a condition she was born with.
"Jen, why did you let her in" Emily said turning her attention to her mother
"What do you want" Emily said in an even tone
"I need you to sign some forms regarding your disease" Elizabeth said
"It's not a dis-" I started
"Jen just leave it. I'm used to it by now" Emily explained. Emily signed some contract saying she could not tell the press or anyone of the ambassadors colleges or politicians about her being intersexual, for it could pose a bad image on her mother. She then backed her mother out the door and shut it in her face.

"Sorry you had to witness that JJ, I'm going to put Henry in his room to finish his nap then go on a run" Em said, hurrying past Jennifer to pick up her son
"Hold on Em, we need to talk about this, there is a lot to unpack here" I tried explaining to her. At this point she was already walking out the door to start her run, even though she was in sweat and a hoodie in the middle in july.
"There is nothing to talk about Jen, i'll be back before dinner, bye, love you" She said shutting the door

Emily got home 3 hours later, JJ got up from the couch as soon as Emily got home, she was mad because Emily never even answered her texts or repeated calls.
"What the hell Em, I've been texting you for 3 hours now"
"Sorry I just got caught up in the moment" She explains, looking down, I know I shouldn't profile her but something else is wrong. I know her history with self harm so I grab her wrist and she immediately flinched and then hissed as I touched then
"Em, lift up your sleeves please" I instructed her, she lifted them up and there were 2 semi large cuts on her arm.
"Where's the blade Em?" I asked
"I already threw it away" Satisfied that I wasnt going to accidentally cut myself if I touched her, I pulled her in her a deep hug. I knew she needed someone to be there for her and not be mad at her. As the hug was breaking away Henry came running into the living room.
"Hey bubs, how are you?" Emily asked as she crouched down to hug him. I didn't even notice her pull her sleeves down again but they were down before Henry could see the cuts and dry blood.
"Mama, why are you crying?" Henry asked, he wiped her tears away and gave her a sloppy kiss on the cheeks
"Oh buddy, I was just a little sad but your mommy cheered me up" Em said as she looked over at me and smiled.

After putting Henry down for bed I cleaned Emily's arm up and switched the number on the fridge from 143 to 0.
"You know what this means right? No sharp objects and I'm asking Hotch to take your side arm away from you for 2 months so you don't get any other ideas." I explained
"Yeah I know, thank you for understanding and not being mad" Emily said with a sad tone.
"I would do anything for you my love, I sorry you felt that you had to turn to harming yourself instead of coming to me. I will try to do better at communicating with you. Relapse is part of recovery. I love you loser" I said, realizing I was now crying
"Thank you Jennifer. I love you too loser"

*End of flashback*

"Suit yourself babe" Emily laughed as she slightly opened to shower curtain and took the razor from JJ's hand.
