There were years when Emily Prentiss knew exactly how to keep you alive. Then there were years when she didn't know you at all. Four years after your relationship ended, Emily comes back with an offer neither of you expected: return to Quantico to help the team hunt down a network of killers born from the pandemic. What starts as a favour to an old lover quickly spirals out of control and the two of you soon realise that untangling a network of serial killers would prove easier than untangling the knots left behind when you split. While Emily learned to make room for more than her work, you learned to live on less than you needed. But is healing the same thing as coming home?

You and Emily met at the BAU when she transferred back from Interpol after Hotch had hired you a few months before. You fit right into the team when you joined, and naturally developed a great friendship with Emily when she returned too. But that friendship quickly developed into a little something more, and although you'd agreed to keep it secret from the rest of the team, it was getting harder to hide how much you cared for each other, especially when one particular case puts you right at the forefront of the team's investigation. This fanfic will revolve around y/n having mental health issues, and whilst the relationship with Emily will play a large part in the storyline, I want to keep it as realistic as possible so y/n's mental health problems will continue throughout. For the purposes of this story, Emily's return from Interpol is the only reason why she's left the BAU, the Ian Doyle storyline has not happened yet. (This story mentions various mental health topics including depression, anxiety, eating disorders (restriction and purging), self-harm and suicide. Please don't read if you think it'll trigger you, and please reach out to someone if you're struggling.) Smut warning - chapters with smut involved will have '*' in the title

emily prentiss joins the bau after elle's departure in season 2. emily quickly becomes best friends with a co worker. will this stay a friendship ? or will it become something so much more. emily is intersexual will and henry do not exist in this story warning: smut, depression

A WLW love story between Emily Prentiss and y/n. The one we all know Emily deserves. At 57, as the section chief of the BAU, Emily thought her chance for love and a family was over, that all changes when a new agent begins- the only thing is she's almost 30 years younger than Emily.

This is 1/2 part of what I'm working on. It's kind of a haters to lovers type vibe, so there will be more of a slow burn angsty tension rather than straight up smut :) While I was writing the 50th chapter. I found a better way to describe this version of Y/N and Emily Prentiss: A self destructive drug addict with a traumatic past meets a somewhat patient federal agent... So, there will be a lot of substance usage in this story.. And it'll probably be somewhat toxic because I'm definitely not promoting substance abuse. Y/N is a total mess. After surviving an abusive relationship with the son of a mob boss who made her do some horrible things, she's been stuck in a downward spiral of anger, guilt, and self-destruction. Losing her dad a few days after her escape only made herangrier. She's selfish and a coward, always trying to protect herself. (Spoiler alert: she's not great at lying, but she keeps trying anyway.) **Trigger Warnings** Substance Abuse: alcohol, lots of drugs. Domestic Abuse: Mentions of Y/N's toxic and abusive relationship. Violence Very subtle sexual harassment moments

Emily set her sights on you the second she saw you across the briefing room at the FBI headquarters. Fresh from the academy, she picks you to join the elite BAU. Emily wants to mould you to be the perfect agent for her team and the perfect submissive for her bedroom.

"You were dead. I saw you die, Emily."

Emily Prentiss must work with Y/N, a private security consultant and ex-military strategist the team distrusts. Sparks fly-in combat, in strategy rooms, and in stolen moments between danger.

You've worked as a member of the FBI's Behavioural Analysis Team for 4 years now - a career you dreamt of growing up. But 6 months ago, the love of your life was ripped from you suddenly in the worst case of your career. To this day you still can't wrap your head around it - how little you knew about the woman you'd planned to marry someday, why she chose to disappear without her team, why she'd put herself in a position where you could lose her. So many questions had been occupying your mind ever since her funeral, but one thing was for sure: Every bit of joy you had left in you died with Emily Prentiss that day. ----- Dreaming of Emily being alive again had been the only thing keeping you going so far. But the reality of that might be quite different to how you'd expect.
