Drinking Coffee

finale

Third person POV
The couple sat in the waiting room for hours. JJ was asleep on Emily's shoulder when Franklin ran down.

"She's here."

Emily woke JJ up and they ran upstairs. Emily led the pair through the doorway and found Sophia with a sleeping baby on her chest.

"Hey sweetie. How are you feeling?" Emily asked. She just smiled and shrugged. "Like the happy drugs are kicking in."

JJ walked towards the bed and looked at her new granddaughter. "Do you want to hold her?" Franklin asked. JJ grinned and Sophia put her in her arms.

She sat on the couch and Emily sat next to them. "You mad a cute kid." Emily laughed. The pair sat with the new baby while Franklin and Sophia were able to eat and get cleaned up.

"We're here if you need anything. Babysitting, running errands, anything." They assured them. The nurse came to get the baby and they started talking.

"Does she have a name?" Emily asked. Franklin smiled and replied "Penelope Rosa Prentiss-Jareau."

"Oh my god." JJ said as she teared up. "Pen is really going to love it." She finally found a relaxing moment after everything that had just happened.

The final case, retirement and quitting. It was a major stressor in JJ's life and in this moment she had a break. Having her family all right here with her, it meant a lot.

Emily on the other hand couldn't get one thing off her mind. What happens if something happens to them? She spent her whole life hiding herself and now everything is in the open.

Doyle had come back and ruined their relationship, Will has come back many different times. Now she has another little person to watch out for.

JJ noticed Emily zoning out and pulled her to the hallway. "Jen I can't do this. I need to leave." She tried saying, but JJ didn't budge.

"No. I'm not letting you run off right now. I know you're terrified of us getting hurt but we can't let that stop us."

"Franklin was kidnapped when he was 11 and I couldn't do anything about it. I sat there and watched as you almost died. And now there are 4 people counting on me."

"We got through it. We always will. I knew if anything happened to me, Franklin would be safe. With you."

"But what if I mess up and you all get hurt?"

"Then I'll take the fall for it too. We are a team. And I will not let you spiral. Not alone." JJ stated. Emily stood frozen for a minute before allowing herself to breakdown.

"You are not alone. And will never be alone again."
