This isn't what I want

chapter 59

** Emily's POV **

 "JJ, you're going to have to push now!" I scream at her as she squeezes my hand tight.

"Please, Emily, it hurts." She bends over, clutching her belly.

"JJ, it's going to be fine. You've done this before, come on." I encourage her as I lay the towels out across the floor.

She shuts her eyes tight and lets out an ear-splitting scream. I want to cover my ears but I don't want to let go of her hand, so I bear it, and soon, there's a wail as her first baby girl is born. Three minutes later, her twin is born.

"Jaydge, you've done it. You've given birth to your two baby girls." I say, feeling elated, as I wipe their faces with a clean towel.

"I don't want to name them without Spence." She cries as she holds one of them in her arms. They're so cute, with JJ's big bright eyes.

"It's okay." I say and give her an awkward hug whilst still holding the babies.

"I'm sorry." She says and starts crying again.

The babies seem to sense their mom's upset because they both start sniffling, so I begin to rock them on my knees whilst JJ lies down. Finally, she brings up the topic I was hoping she wouldn't.

"What about Will? I can't hide them from him forever." She whispers, worried.

"You can't think about that. Your babies need you, and you need to look after them. Will won't hurt them. And the team is hunting him as we speak." I reassure her before laying the two babies down in the middle of the small bed. They roll oevr, asleep, and I just stand watching over them.

** Reid's POV **

Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock.

The clock is driving me mad. It won't stop ticking. I'm trying to find some connection to try locate JJ. I've already discounted any immediate family and friends, because I know she's smart. But I worry that she's too smart. She doesn't want to be found, andI'm scared that I won't be able to find her after Will is taken.

Garcia suddenly bursts into the conference room, breathless, her tablet in her hand.

"Guys, I got a hit. I know where Will is. He's currently driving towards the border to Maryland. What if he's found her?" Her voice trembles as she sends the coordinates.

Hotch, Morgan and I run out to the SUVs and pile in, desperate to keep up with him. We can't lose him now. I need to catch him, for JJ. So she can live in peace without being afraid of her own shadow, or always looking over her shoulder for someone.

I check the news update, and four of the twelve convicts have been found already. Two dead. Two were arrested at a cafe. The others are still missing.

"Hotch, drive faster." I say as the GPS signal that Garcia sent us shows him turning off the freeway.

He puts his foot on the gas and soon we're not far behind. But Will appears to be slowing down. What if he's found her? What do I do then?

** Will's POV **

I know my wife too well. I know where she likes to hide. She always talked about owning a cabin in the woods. So I checked out rentals in the woods near the border, and I traced her card number, which I remembered, to a particular cabin. As I pull up outside, I see a black unmarked vehicle, which isn't JJ's. But then, she's probably changed her car a few times.

I'm about to burst through the front when I hear crying. It's like a baby crying. There's two of them. And then I hear her. The voice of my wife singing a lullaby. And the crying slowly gets quieter, until I can no longer hear it. 

I decide to circle around back to look for a quieter way in, and then I see through the glass the figure of another woman. That Emily bitch. I thought she would be gone, but obviously not. I wonder why JJ didn't stay with her pretty-boy lover. Maybe they've broken up. She probably cheated on him too. Bitch.

** JJ's POV **

Just as I'm about to close my eyes, I see him. It's only for a split second, but I immediately begin to panic. Emily notices and she checks all the doors and windows are locked. Then she holds her gun out with one hand, her other hand resting on my shoulder as I sit up, holding the babies.

"He's here, Emily. He's really here. He found me." I cry, unable to wipe my tears away.

"Shh, it's fine. He won't hurt you. Not with the babies here and all."

"Emily, you don't know that. He's a monster, that man. He's capable of doing anything, and he won't care about them. He hurt me before whilst Henry was present." I can't stop myself saying this, and I can see Emily's body language changes.

"That fucking bastard is not going to get away with this." She says, wrenching open the front door.

And then I'm alone, save for my two bundles of joy.
