"There are things we don't want to happen, but have to accept, things we don't want to know, but have to learn, and people we can't live without, but have to let go"
JJ has been changing every since the situation with Askuri and Hastings. Will the...
The team of Morgan, Reid, Rossi, Garcia, and I have been short staffed since Prentiss left and then JJ. We have had different agents to fill the roles but they don't stay for long in the unit. Strauss has given the entire team three weeks paid leave, Garcia came up with the idea of all of us going to see Prentiss for a week. We all miss her and it would be good to see her and ask if she wants to come back again. We would go see JJ but we still don't know where she is, we hear from her occasionally but not for long so we never know where she is or what she is doing.
We all went home and packed our bags before heading to the jet. The team arrives and we all take our seats before taking off and stating the flight to London. We talk about how great it is to have a holiday and get to see Emily for a decent amount of time instead of a few hours like last time we called her in to help with a case. We all relax and some start falling asleep or reading a book.
JJ pov...
It's Sunday so both Em and I have the day off work. We decided that we would just have a day at home today playing some games and maybe watch a movie. Henry asks to play monopoly so we set up the game on the floor and lie down on her playmat so she can lie there and grab her toys for something to do while watching us play.

I Put Emiline in a Henry picks to be the dog, Emily picks the horse and I pick the boat for our tokens. We travel around the board buying different properties, on the second go around the board Em keeps landing on Hen's properties and has to pay Hen so he keeps laughing. They both laugh on my turn when I land on the go to jail space. I ask "is that funny to you?"
They both nod and Hen says "yes mommy"
I go to say something before there is a knock on the door, I look at Em and she shakes her head before saying "I'm not expecting anyone"
I say "me neither"
She gets up and walks over to the door and opens it, I can't see the door but I can hear the voices. I hear Em say hello and then am shocked when I hear Hotch's voice and a few others from the BAU team.
Em walks back over to me and asks "do you want them to see you?"
I nod and say "I can't really hide being here anymore"
She nods and goes back to the door to let them in, they walk in the room and look at me and their faces all show shock. I say "hi, surprise"
They come over to me and hug me, they say we missed you JJ. Reid asks "what are you doing here?"
I say "I live here, I made Em promise not to tell you but I came here straight after leaving the BAU".
Henry hugs them all and says "I missed you"
Hotch asks "do you like it here?"
Henry nods before saying "mommy and Em work together and home more, schools fun and I have my sister"
Morgan asks "sister?"
I laugh and say "where's your profile skills or have you not seen my daughter playing on the floor at the side of the room"
Rossi says "we were more focused on you"
I walk over and pick Emiline up, I walk back over to them and stand next to Henry while everyone gathers around us to look at her. Henry says "this is my sister Emiline"
They take turns holding her while we sit down to talk. I ask "where do you want me to start?"
Hotch says "the beginning" at the same time Garcia says "why you left?"
I explain "you were all right, I was struggling and the easiest option was to hide it. Being taken by Askari and Hastings was the last straw. I became pregnant with Hasting's baby when he raped me and I was fighting with Will so much we got a divorce. I couldn't stay any longer so I moved Henry and I here so we could start fresh, I got a job working for Em and getting ready for another baby. Emiline is named after Emily and my sister Rosaline, the two people who mean the most to me, she is just over four months old now".
They ask me a few more questions before we change topic so they can catch up with Em. Em and I find out what they have been up to lately. Hotch says "I thought we could possibly get Em to come back to the BAU but I guess this means no"
Em nods and says "yeah, we are happy here at the moment"
They smile and Rossi says "it's good to see you happy now JJ"
I nod and Reid says "do you think you will be able to stay in contact with us more now that we know?"
I smile and say "yeah we can, we might even come visit when we get a holiday"
