Where it all began

Why are you here? part 2

(Emily's POV)

The mans breath reeked of alcohol as he leaned over me. I never thought he would act like this. I wish Aaron would get here.

"Don't you want to get out of here, away from all the little babies. " God this was messed up. Didn't he know I was eight months pregnant. Did he remember anything.

"Um, no I'd rather stay here. " I said cautiously my hand instinctively going to my stomach. He turned his head.

"Oh, Henry! You're here. " I wish Elle was here. Last time this happened she straightened him out in a heartbeat.

"I'm sorry. I'm going to have to ask you to get the fuck out of my house before I call the authorities. " I paused for effect. "Oh wait I am the authorities... now leave! "

Normally this wouldn't be a problem. I've talked unsubs into handing over hostages. But this. This was all too personal.

I saw the kids huddled in the corner as he leaned over my face taunting me.

"When is Mr.Grinch getting back? I'm sure we have time for some fun. " he said messing with my hair. Normally I would fight. But I knew getting into fist fights with grown men was not smart at 8 months pregnant. I scooted backwards realizing the impracticality of me sitting on the floor. Right as soon as thought he was going grab me Aaron busted in the door and knocked Will off of me. He laid on the ground holding his shoulder as I looked over and saw Jack covering his eyes. Normally all I would care about is seeing if the kids were okay but I just sat in the corner in shock as Aaron checked on each one of them. Henry and Natalia we're asleep but Jack just sat there.  I was about to get up and say something, anything when Aaron turned and sat on the floor pulling me into his muscular chest where I melted into his arms.

A few moments later Jack came over and sat on the other side of Aaron. Jack and I had a good relationship but he still wasn't used to seeing me all the time and I can except that.

"Where's Spencer? " I finally asked. Will was still laying on the floor but we were just going to take Jack to our room and Henry and Natalia to Spencer's room so Will could figure it out when he woke up. He was handcuffed and knocked out so it's not like he was going anywhere.

"Oh he's in the living room with Sean. And before you ask he came here drunk, I'll have a heated argument with him in the morning." I looked up at him a bit concerned.

"Why do you feel the need to have a heated argument with your only brother?"

"Emily, it's not that I want to argue with him but there's three little kids sleeping in this house he can't be showing up drunk." Jack was sleeping again sprawled across his fathers lap. Without even noticing Aaron had a subconscious arm on the boys shoulder. He really did care about the kids.

"I guess your right. Elle and JJ and I have our last physical case tomorrow don't we? I mean I know we stopped flying last week but didn't someone mention how we were flying to Jersey for the next case?"

"I'm pretty sure your right. I'll check the paperwork once we get back to the bedroom. How about I go put Jack in our bed and you sit here with Spencer's kids. And before you answer that. You are not carrying anyone. Spencer said you looked like you were going to cry when he put Natalia on your back. And before you answer that, you don't have to be okay with everything Emily. You can say no. It's as simple as that." Normally if anyone else had said that to me I'd be angry. Extremely angry. I'm not sure why but I just feel different when Aaron is around. Better. More human.

"I'll stay here. And before you say anything, may I ask why Spencer was prompted to tell you that?" The corner of his mouth turned up in a mischievous smile.
