Emily's pov:
The whole team was currently on a jet to Salt Lake City, Utah. We had a new case and apparently it was a bad one. Not that any of them were good really.

Garcia had finished the briefing and we still had a few hours left on the jet. Everyone had kinda zoned out into there on world. Hotch was working on his computer and so was Rossi. Derek was asleep listening to music with his headphones and Spencer was completely immersed in some book she picked up at the airport.

JJ was on the couch curled up fast asleep. She looked so peaceful it was sweet. I was rereading the case file but I couldn't really focus on it. I was more interested in what everyone else was doing. It was one of my problems.

The plane landed and we all headed to the police station to set up. JJ met with detective, Ryan Seymour. "I'm SSA Jennifer Jareau we spoke on the phone." She introduced herself. "Yes I remember. I'm glad you guys could come I think we could use the help." He said.

JJ nodded. "Is there somewhere we can set up?" Detective Seymour led us all to a room with a glass case board and a table. It looked like they'd already started working on it. 6 victims all females late 20s early 30s. All light brown hair and dark eyes. They were all very similar looking.

"Okay Reid and Prentiss I was you guys to go down to the ME's and see what they can tell you. JJ go talk to the family members, and Morgan any witnesses. Let's get to work." Hotch said and everyone dispersed.

That night at around 9 we hadn't made very much progress but everyone was exhausted. "Alright everyone go to your hotel room and try to get some rest. Meet back here at 8am tomorrow. Morgan you're with Reid, prentiss you're with JJ, and I'm with Rossi. Garcia sent you the room numbers." Hotch announced.

Everyone gathered their stuff and started got in cabs to the hotel. JJ, Morgan, and I all rode together. JJ had her head rested on the window and I think she might have fallen asleep, but she was awake when we got to the hotel.

"I'll go check us in. Be right back." I told her heading over to the front desk. I got our room keys and headed up to the room with JJ.

I unlocked the door and we both threw our stuff down on the floor. "I'm going to go take a shower." JJ said grabbing some pyjamas and heading into the bathroom.

The room was pretty nice. There was two queen beds and a tv. I flopped down on one of them and started flipping through channels. Soon JJ came out of the bathroom and when she opened the door a gush of steam escaped.

"What the hell did you do visit Satan?" I laughed. "I'm just a boiling hot shower kinda person." She giggled. She had on a pyjama shirt and shorts and her hair was wet. She looked pretty.

I stopped myself before I got too far. She was my coworker and straight. I've always had a little crush on her but that's it. It's a harmless crush and nothing more.

I excused myself to go shower grabbing my pyjamas and heading into the still steaming bathroom.

When I came out JJ was sitting on one of the beds watching tv. I sighed and got into my bed. I was tired and I just wanted to sleep. JJ turned off her lights and I heard her get under the blankets. "Good night JJ." I said. "Night Em." She replied. I fell asleep almost instantly.

~6 days later~
I took us a while but we finally made a lot of progress and I think we may have found the unsub. He had taken two more victims which was his mistake. He got sloppy and left behind his watch at the crime scene.

He usually held them captive for at least two days before killing his victims. The newest ones were taken yesterday so we still have time to save them. 6 people had died, but if we save these 2 I would still say it ended better than it could have. With this job you have to force yourself to look at the bright side, which is not very easy for me particularly.

We think we have found our unsub, a man named Jacob Sahel. He owned property in the country, and we're all hoping that's where the last two victims are.

We were all heading out with swat to the house. When we got there Morgan, Reid, and Hotch went into the house, and JJ, Rossi, and I went into the shed.

When we broke through the door we saw the two victims tied to chairs, but obviously alive and not too badly beaten which is a good sign.

The unsub tired to run through the back door. Rossi stayed to help the victims and JJ and I went after him. He started running through the field behind the house.

JJ was right in front of him and I was off to the side. "Jacob Sahel FBI put your hands up and drop the weapons." JJ yelled. He was turned around so we couldn't see him.

Slowly he started to turn around but he quickly pulled out his gun and shot straight at JJ. Before I saw where she got hit I fired at him and sent a bullet straight through is head.

Everyone started coming out into the field and I ran over to JJ who was on the ground. "Oh my god are you okay." I asked checking for blood.

"Yeah I managed to duck out of the way before it hit me in the head." She said. "JJ you're bleeding." I looked to her arm and the sleeve was ripped and covered with blood.

"It's a tiny graze I'll be fine." She said with a slight laugh trying to get up. I pulled her up with her good arm and was able to get a closer look. "Oh my god JJ it went straight through your arm!" I panicked. "Cmon I'm taking you to the ambulance right now. Don't fight it." She nodded and I walked her to the ambulance.

We were back at the hotel room now. JJ and I had both showered and I helped her change the bandage on her arm. She was right it wasn't too bad and it definitely could have been a lot worse.

I finished sticking the bandage and sat back. "I mean getting shot sucks but you do get a badass scar." I smiled. "Do you really think it will leave a scar?" She giggles.

"Not a big one but it probably will. And if someone asks you how it happened you can say 'I got shot'." I laughed. JJ smiled. "That's does sound cool."

"Alright you should try and go to sleep. Does it hurt to bad?" I asked her. JJ shook her head. "Only a little."

I moved into my bed and settled under the covers. We turned off the lights and started to fall asleep. "Night JJ." I whispered. "Good night Em."

I woke up slightly in the middle of the night. I saw JJ crying slightly and crawling into my bed. She got under the covers and hugged me tightly.

I hugged her and rubbed her back trying to get her to go back to sleep. It was a habit she picked up from sharing rooms on cases.

Whenever she had a nightmare or a bad dream she would just crawl into my bed and lay with me so she wasn't scared anymore. I thought it was cute.

And sometimes I wouldn't notice it so I'd just wake up and JJ would be curled up in my arms sleeping peacefully. It was really sweet.
