"Agent Jareau, you need to get back to your room!" We heard a nurse yell. We all left the waiting room and stepped into the hallway to see Jennifer standing out there in her hospital gown, her hands holding her head as the nurse tries to get her to listen.

"No! I need Emily! Where's my girlfriend?!"

I carefully made my way over to where they were standing. I looked at the nurse and nodded, letting her know it was okay to leave.

"Jennifer..?" I whisper quietly. She stops moving and looks up at me. I stare at her with wide eyes. She looks so lost and scared.

"Emily!" She quickly walked over to me and pulled me into her arms. I freeze a little before wrapping my arms around her. She has me in a death grip.

"Hey, it's okay. I'm right here" I pull back and take her face in my hands. "You okay?" I rub my thumbs against her cheeks, trying to relax her.

"Yeah.. My head hurts really bad" I wrap my arm around her waist and her left arm around my neck as we make our way back to her room. I help her into bed and take the seat beside the bed. She lays there, staring at me.

"Do you know what's going on?" I asked her after a little while.

"Not really... Everything is so confusing. My body and head hurts, it feels like time sped up but I stayed still, if that makes sense?"

"It makes sense. Look, I need to finish speaking to your doctor okay? Please behave while I'm gone."

"You have my word. Can I have a kiss first?" I chew on my lip thinking for a second before I lean forward and place my lips against hers for the first time in forever. I pulled back before I started crying.

"I'll be back" I quickly left the room and closed the door before leaning against the wall. I took a few deep breaths before going back over to the team in the waiting room.

"Hey, is she okay?" Tara asked.

"Uh.. She said that her body and head are hurting. And that she's very confused about what's going on. She's got her memory back but I don't know what all she remembers yet."

"Did she say anything else?"

"No, what did her doctor say?"

"Just that they're going to keep a close eye on her. They're going to send Tara in and try to help her a little with figuring things out. She's come this far with her" Spence said. I looked over at Tara.

"You're a Godsend, you know?" She smiles at me.

"I guess it's now or never. You wanna go with me Emily? I'm sure she would love to see you some more" I nodded and we left, heading towards Jennifer's room. When we walked in she was standing in front of the window looking outside. I smirked when I saw her boxers. They had blue clues on them. I bought them as a joke when we first got together. It kinda went along with an inside joke we had. It also brought tears to my eyes too. I stared at her back tattoo, taking in the details of it.

"JJ?" Tara called out, breaking the silence. I stood towards the back in case she suddenly forgot who I was. Jennifer turned around looking at Tara then at me, staring for a second before going back to Tara. I chewed on my lip as I looked down at the ground.

"Hey, you're Tara right?"

"Yeah and you already know Emily, right?"

"Yes, I know her."

"Good. I'm going to sit down with you and we are going to do a few exercises okay? Is that fine with you?"

"Yeah, we can sit over here, I guess" we go over to the small sitting area she had. I sat down beside Tara and she sat across from us.
