Anger

CW: Anger

General POV

It was finally Saturday, Jennifer and Emily's day off. Along with the rest of the team, of course. Normally JJ and Emily would go out to get coffee with Penelope and Spencer, but that all changed when Spencer was fired from the BAU. Hotch would not tell the team why, even after all of their pleading. It happened so suddenly and the team was devastated. Spencer was a valued member of their team, a fantastic profiler, but an even better friend. JJ, Emily, and Penelope could never wrap their heads around what Spencer Reid could have possibly done to get fired from the FBI.

JJ POV

I was woken up to the annoying sound of my alarm. I roll over, click "Stop", and check the time.

7:00

I heard Emily groan as she stood up out of our bed.

"Good morning." I say to her as I walk past her, to our closet.

"This sucks." She replies, which is what's to be expected from Emily Prentiss at 7 in the morning.

"I'll be at the gym with Derek from 7:30-9 and then I'll be back at around 9:20." I tell her.

She gives me a sarcastic thumbs up as she walks into the bathroom, which is connected to our bedroom, to take a shower. After I brush my teeth, I put on workout clothes, grab a water bottle, my keys, and a hair tie as I walk out the door. I get into my car and drive to the gym that Derek and I meet at almost every Saturday and most days of the week.

When I arrive I see Derek stepping out of his car. I work on cardio and legs while we works on arms and core. It was a good workout and I felt like I could do anything after. That feeling prevailed until I said my goodbyes to Derek, and stepped into my car. The drive home wasn't pretty. My hair was a mess, my fly aways sticking to my face with sweat. I was sweating from head to toe and I couldn't wait until I got home and was able to jump into the shower as quickly as possible.

When I get home, I practically jump out of my car and walk as fast as I can to the shower.

"How was your workout?" I heard Emily say from the kitchen as I was halfway up the staircase.

"It was good," I call down to her. "I'm sweating like a pig." I heard her laugh and took that as my cue to start heading to the shower again. I took a nice long shower which felt good on my legs after how much I worked them earlier.

My legs were shaking as I stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around myself. I go to the closet and get yoga pants and a tank top from "my side", but I think we all know that 80% of my shirts come from Emily's side.

After I was dressed, I walked back into the bathroom. I brushed my hair, put hair oil in the ends of it, brushed my teeth for the second time, and put on deodorant. I walked downstairs to join Emily in making breakfast and it was quite a surprise to find it already made for us. She was filling up two cups with water as I walked over to her.

"You smell amazing." She says to me as I stand next to her. I laugh and give her a quick kiss before grabbing my cup out of her hand which she reluctantly gave me.

I walked over to the table a took a seat. She joined me and we talked over our food. We talked about what we should do that day, how good the food was, what I did at the gym, and then the subject fell to work. Given the fact that Spencer was only fired from the BAU a month ago, the topic of work was still a bit tender. I notice her expression change when I bring up work and how much I am dreading having to go tomorrow. I could feel how tense Emily was. Her hand was in a loose fist on the table and she used the other hand to hold the fork from which she ate. I reached up and cupped my hand around hers, I rub it gently with my thumb.

"There's nothing we can do about it, Emily." I try and reassure her.

"I know. I don't like the fact that he hasn't messaged, or responded to any of us when we've tried to talk to him." She responds, her tone turning hostile. She takes her hand from under mine quickly as she stands up and storms out of the kitchen. I sigh as I pick up our plates and begin to wash them.

As I'm washing the dishes I get a notification on my phone which is still on the table. I finish washing the dishes and then go to check it.

Rossi:
Party at mine tonight? 7:00 work for everyone?

I respond with:
Emily and I are in!

We haven't had dinner at Rossi's since Spencer and I'm glad we are getting it over now. It's going to be a lot different now that he's gone.

Emily POV

I go check the time on my phone.

10:00

I see 3 notifications in the team's group chat. I click on it and see that we are invited to dinner at Rossi's.

I walk back downstairs and I had cooled off a bit and find JJ sitting on the couch watching TV.

"Hey." I say to her as I sit down next to her.

She smiles at me as she holds out her hand. I interlace our fingers as we watch whatever show she put on, I didn't recognize it.
