JJ's Secret Lover

JJ's (Not So) Secret Lover - Part 29

"He's drugging and stabbing women in the Washington area, he kills in a pattern. Every two days." Penelope finishes the profile and Hotch chimes in, "Wheels up in 30."

You grab your go bag and follow the rest of the team to the jet. You sit in the same chair as usual and Emily pulls out the checkers board. You play a few games and then put your headphones in until the jet lands.

"Ok, JJ and Emily you head to the police station. Y/N and I will head to the morgue, Reid and Morgan you guys head to the latest victim's home and interview her parents." Hotch says while the team gets off the jet.

Hotch and you drive to the morgue and ask the M.E some questions. "Have the tests identified the drug used?" He asks the M.E while you look over the body.

"No, it's a homemade remedy of multiple drugs. So to identify one is going to take a few days." The M.E says while looking at his files. You finish looking at the body and Hotch shakes the M.E's hand. "Thanks."

He walks out the door and you follow. As you both get into the car, you say to Hotch. "Did you notice the resemblance in each victim? I have an idea." 

You both get back to the station, you find an empty desk and go over the file before explaining your idea to Hotch.

"We have to provoke him, I'll give a profile to local news. I mean the victims are all brunettes with blue eyes and freckles. I can provoke him, he'll make a mistake."

Hotch thinks for a second and then agrees with the plan. "Ok, but. We have to be super careful about your identity. If we let it slip, he could come after you." 

You smile and say, "He wouldn't have the balls. Uh, but, also I need you to tell JJ. Deliver the blow." He smiles and nods.

You stand at the front of the station waiting for the news anchors to set up. JJ is watching you, your fingers are fidgeting and she wants to run over to you but you're about to start.

"We're are looking for a man in his 40's, lonely, with a background in law enforcement. No partner or family. Going after a particular woman." You say before the news crews started asking questions. You walk off before they finish and head back into the station. 

You are still fidgeting your fingers, and JJ notices so she walks over to you and holds your hands while you calm down. 

"I'm good, I'm good." You look at her and wave it off. Hotch sends you all to the motel for the night, better to have sleep for tomorrow. "Everyone in their own room tonight, we need to focus on this case." Hotch says while handing everyone a key.

"Hotch, exception?" JJ asks quietly, Hotch shakes his head. He seems adamant about everyone being in their own room. But you smile at JJ and she winks. You'll sneak her in somehow. 

Everyone shuffles into their room, you head in to your motel room and get changed for bed. 

You hear a knock at the door expecting JJ to be waiting for you. You open the door, but there's no one there. So you lean out to look around, a figure lunges toward you.

You feel a pinch in your neck and your body starts to feel heavy. You feel the cold floor on your face and your eyes closed.

JJ's POV:

I hated that Hotch wouldn't let me and Y/N stay in the same room, he always makes an exception. But it's fine, I'll sneak in like I used to. 

I hop into the shower and get changed. I look out the door and make sure Hotch is in his room before quietly walking to Y/N's room.

I knocked on the door and got no answer. I tried to peek through the window but there was stuff everywhere. I couldn't see Y/N in their room, so I headed back to mine. 

I assumed she had gone to bed. 

The next morning, the team met outside all of our rooms and Hotch started giving out jobs to do. I noticed Y/N hadn't come out of their room, "Hotch, where's Y/N?". He shrugs his shoulder and the team walk over to their room.

The room is so messy and the window is too small to see in. "Hotch, you got a spare key?" I ask but he shakes his head. I ran to the front desk and asked the lady for a spare key for Y/N's office.

I ran back to the room where the team was waiting and swiped the key card over the lock.

I rushed in and saw Y/N's stuff everywhere. Emily was behind me and noticed Y/N's dog tags on the counter displayed with a note next to them.

"Catch me if you can, you have a chance if you follow my rules." The note reads. I start freaking out, Y/N is gone and we don't know who the unsub is.

Back to Y/N's POV:

You wake up with a pounding headache and your hands tied behind your back. You are sat on a chair in a dark and black room.

"Hello?" You ask the room but no answer. Your vision is blurry and your head is killing. You sit there for what felt like hours, crazy noises and groans forming all around you. 

You try again and call out, "Hello?" Your voice echos and the sound of a door slamming makes you jump.

"Hi, Y/F/N Y/L/N. Nice to finally meet you." The man smiles and you realise the unsub has come after you. You didn't really think he would come and get you.

"Oh, fuck off." You say to him while trying to untie yourself. He swings at you and your vision becomes more blurry. He keeps hitting you until you pass out again.

JJ's POV: 

"We have nothing! Literally nothing on this unsub!" I yell to the team, I storm out of the room and head to the bathroom. I look at myself in the mirror and clench my hands on the sink. Emily walked in and put her hand on my back.

"Jayje, you ok?" She asks as you collapse onto the floor. "What if we don't find them? I can't live without them." 

I am sat on the floor of the bathroom crying while Emily comforts me. "This won't help, we have to solve this." I stand up and barge out of the bathroom. I get to the main area of the station and gather the team.

"We aren't leaving until we know where Y/N is, we only leave when we have their location." I say to the team, handing out all the files.

Back to Y/N's POV:

Your eyes open again, a shot of pain reaches your face. Your vision still cloudy and the room quiet.

"Get in here fucker!" You yell out to the unsub. It's silent. You just sit there and wait. A bang from behind you makes you jump again, the unsub walks in. 

"Your team is taking a while, waiting is killing me. But I want to take you slow, so the wait is intriguing." You almost vomit with his words. You try again to free yourself but your wrists are red raw. Is the team close to finding you? 

You watch the room around you, looking for something, anything. You keep trying to untie your self and get frustrated. You need out.
