The Trouble With The Truth

Lauren

"That's Jennifer Jareau, she used to work in our unit" Emily said. "Care to tell me how the fuck she left this hospital with our baby?"

"She claimed she was Emily and was going to bring the baby to this room and quite honestly, people are leaving with their newborns regularly so it really wouldn't raise any red flags"

"Well that wasn't her newborn!" I cried. "She's ours!"

"I need you to call the team" I look to Emily and she was already pulling out her phone.

"Morgan, you find me JJ now. She's wanted for a child abduction"

"Our baby. Now I want her face plastered all over this damn city do you understand?" Emily barked before hanging up. "Listen love, I'm gonna go fix this, everything is going to be ok" she kissed me before taking off.

I lay there helpless and heartbroken.

"I need to go help" I finally say as I try to pull the wires off of me.

"No, you are not well enough, I'm sorry but if you don't take it easy you could get seriously hurt" Dr Shepard barked. "Listen, I can't imagine how excruciating this pain must be but I promise we are going to do everything we can to get your daughter back. And if I would ever want anyone looking for my kid, it would be your wife."

I couldn't believe this was happening. How is it that nothing can ever go smoothly. Ever.

Emily's POV:

"Jennifer you answer this fucking phone right now I swear to god-"

"Oh hey Emily" JJ's voice pierced my ears.

"where the hell is my daughter"

"Oh, she's really adorable, but you wouldn't know that because you haven't even seen her yet"

"JJ!" I screamed and I could hear whining on the other end of the phone.

"Listen, um, I really should go, this sweet girl is getting a little fussy"

"Why are you doing this? Please just tell me where you are and I come get her"

"Oh what? It doesn't feel too great when someone fucks with your life does it?" JJ sneered.

"Listen, you were letting your emotions get in the way of your job. You were a safety concern to our teamJennifer!"

"well maybe if you would have paid a little more attention to me, things wouldn't have to end like this."

"What are you talking about" my foot was pressed down on the accelerator.

"I've got work to do Emily. But know that I loved you"

"What about Henry? Huh? You can't do this to him. You're his mother. Listen to me, you can still make this right."

"I think it's too late for that."

"JJ!" I screamed as the line went dead. "FUCK!"

I called Garcia,

"did you get a location?"

"Emily, she's here. She's at Quantico."

My heart felt like it was going to burst into a billion pieces.

"Nobody leaves" I barked as I sped into the parking lot and bolted inside, not even bothering to close the car door.

I knew where she would be so I went straight to her old office.

"I figured you'd find me" she sighed as she turned around holding a baby. My baby.

"JJ, please can you just give her to me" I pleaded.

"I just don't get it" she scoffed "why her?"

"Im not having this conversation again." I sighed. "please give me my daughter."

"I wish you could've been able to love me, Emily"

She looked down at her and back at me, before handing her over.

I looked down at this life that Y/n and I were in charge of. I thought when I met Y/n, that was love at first sight, but this, looking at her, I loved her long before I ever met her.

As I was admiring this little human in my arms, JJ was being placed under arrest for kidnapping and child endangerment.

Tears fell from my eyes as our daughter rested so peacefully in my arms.

I couldn't wait to get back to the hospital.

At the hospital Y/n's POV:

"when is Emily going to get here" I complained.

"I'm here honey" her voice came from around the door and as she turned in, I saw her holding our baby and tears began to flood from my eyes.

"Oh my god" I cried as she walked over and sat on the bed.

"here she is" Emily smiled and handed her to me.

It felt unreal. Like this wasn't possible. This was our baby. An actual life that we created.

"she's beautiful" I smiled wide as tears of joy continued to fall.

"she is, just like her mom" Emilys hand cupped the side of my face. "but I think it's time for a name"

"Right..." I nodded. "well, I think we should go with your idea"

Emily's eyes widened,

"really?"

"mhmm"

"you're sure?" Emily asked.

"positive. it's a beautiful name and it means something to you" I smiled at her.

"But I don't want you to settle just because I have a connection with it"

"Emily, I would love nothing more than for you to name our daughter, right here, right now."

She kissed me before placing a small kiss on our daughters head.

"Hi there Lauren" she smiled down at her.q
