I Intend to be Your Last (Jemily)

63.

Emily slowly woke up and immediately her eyes shot up to JJ, who was still in a deep sleep. As she laid her head on her stomach, studying her silky and delicate skin, like she did every morning she was up before her, she started to think about the dream again. She pulled herself up to and rested her head closer to JJ's head, nuzzling between her neck and chin, to listen to the beating in her chest. She let her hand run loose and carelessly trace shapes up and down her arm. Feeling this sudden movement, JJ woke up and looked down to find Emily closer to her. Assuming she was still asleep and having another nightmare, she wrapped her arm around her upper body and pressed her head further into chest just incase she needed to feel or hear her heartbeat. It didn't take long for JJ to go back to sleep but her clutch remained tight, securing Emily to her.

Emily knew JJ wasn't going to wake up anytime soon so, careful to not scare her awake again, she got out of bed and got ready for the first half of the day. She washed her face, brushed her teeth, and came back to change into her sweats and a sweater so that it wasn't a hassle later getting changed into her suit.

She went downstairs and put some coffee on as she waited for JJ wake up to the smell of freshly brewed coffee and realize that she's not in bed anymore.
She didn't make breakfast because the girls were having brunch a little later so she poured herself a cup of coffee and settled in on the couch and read for a while. She kind of got bored and lonely because Sergio liked JJ more so he was asleep in the bedroom with JJ instead of downstairs on the couch with her. Great. Two of my favorite people live in this house but neither one is on this couch with me. That's depressing. She referred to Sergio as a person because he really was just another person roaming around the house, but he didn't pay rent and she had to feed him and care for him. Like a baby.

She continued reading to keep her mind off of everything. The nightmare, Jade, the wedding. All she focused on was the faint beating in the back of her head, thinking of JJ's heart. She repeatedly tapped the spine of the book to the rhythm she remembered and slowly but surely, she calmed down and relaxed into the couch.

A little later into the morning she heard shuffling coming down the stairs. Her baby with their baby. JJ had carried Sergio down with her for Emily because she knew Emily wanted him.
"Well good morning Mrs. soon to be Jennifer Jareau-Prentiss," Emily said looking over the couch.
"Hi babe," she whispered, still half asleep as she climbed on top of Emily.
"Still tired?"
"A little..."
"It's alright, after tonight, we can come home and pack for our "trip" to Italy. How's that sound?"
"Mm. Perfect." She exhaled as she accidentally fell asleep on Emily's chest.

Around 11 the two finally got up from the couch and got ready for brunch with the girls.
Emily decided to put on something a little nicer for the diner, so she put on some dark skinny blue jeans with a white v-neck blouse, which JJ loved, and threw a black blazer over top of it all. JJ wanted something easy to slip on and off so she put on some black bottoms and silk button up, Emily's of course, and put her hair up in a low bun.
"Is that mine?" Emily asked eyeing JJ from the corner of her eye.
"Mmhm..."
"You know what, it looks better on you than it ever did on me," Emily said wrapping her arms around her waist.
"Not true," she cooed, pressing kiss against her lips.
The two danced in the silence. JJ's head on Emily's shoulder with her arms draped around her neck. And Emily with her head resting on JJ's, wrapping her arms loosely around her waist.

"You wanna tell me about that nightmare?" JJ asked into her neck.
"I thought I did..." Emily whispered.
"Baby, I need details. You could barely talk or breathe last night."
They continued swaying to the silent song as Emily told her about the dream.
JJ looked up with tears in her eyes. Sad that Emily had to "see" her dead body on what's suppose to be the happiest day of their lives and scared that it's still a realistic possibility.
"I'm sorry," JJ whimpered as she tucked her head into her neck.
"I'm alright, baby. Scarred and scared but alright."
"Let's just forget about all of this today, and worry on the plane tomorrow because we'll be long gone. Away from here, away from her, and it'll just be us. Hmm?"
"A little break from reality... exactly what we need."
Emily giggled shaking her head as she held out her arm, spinning JJ around and finishing with a dip.
"You've been practicing, I like," JJ bit her lip.
"Well I can't go out there tonight and look like a fool."
"Oh please, if you do just know that you're my little fool okay?"
Emily playfully smacked her arm as they both ran into the bathroom to finish their makeup before the other came.

Penelope: We're here ladies!
Their phone lit up simultaneously as the text came through. The girls grabbed their bags and wedding outfits and ran out to the car which was blasting music from the speakers.
"Why don't you two look fancy," Elle said decreasing volume.
"We do, dont we," Emily smirked, interlocking JJ's hand with hers.
"Okay, everyone ready? Gotta go pick up Amelia but then we're off to brunch and then Rossi's house to get ready."

The girls went and had brunch at a little diner in town and the two quickly pushed the thought of anything unfortunate happening tonight out the window.
"You guys gonna have a honeymoon trip?" Amelia asked sipping her sangria.
"Yeah, we're leaving later in the week, maybe tomorrow if I beg Hotch," JJ laughed.
"Tell us where you're going..." Penelope said excitedly.
"We were thinking Italy..." Emily said slowly.
The other three nodded all together waiting for the suspense to be over.
"And since it's only a couple hours away on the train... Greece would be the second destination," JJ finished off Emily's sentence.
"Awh, take us with you, actually no, just take me. I'll go for them," Elle smiled.
"Hey, who said we didn't want to go?" Penelope and Amelia yelled at Elle.
"Ladies, chill out. We can go for a girls trip another time, but Hotch is actually letting us go for a couple weeks," JJ smiled.
"Cause of..." Penelope dragged.
"Yeah."
"Because of what?" Amelia asked with a lost look on her face.
"An escaped serial killer who is mostly likely going after JJ because she's the one who put her away," Elle said with no hesitation.
"I didn't know either, don't worry," Emily gently comforted Amelia since she's the only one who didn't work in the BAU.

The wedding didn't start till later and girls didn't really have to spend that much time getting since it was a small ceremony and dinner and Rossi's so they went out. They went for a light shop around the plaza for about five hours. They didn't really buy anything, just tried on about every item in the store and took pictures in them for the wedding day scrapbook. The last thing on their agenda was a mini beach date where they took even more pictures and gorged on soft serve and Italian ice.

Around 6:35, they decided to head to Rossi's and get ready for the wedding.

"Buongiorno girls!" Rossi greeted them at the door.
"Hi Rossi," Elle smiled as she spotted Reid behind him.
"Are you two crazy kids ready for this?"
"Uh yeah I'm ready. You?" Emily asked looking over at JJ.
"Definitely."
"Okay, well if either one of you get nervous, call me up. I've been here a couple times, I think I can help."
The girls made their way up the stairs laughing as Rossi and the boys stayed downstairs decorating the backyard.

"Ladies are we ready?" Elle asked hovering her finger over the speakers.
"We are..." The four girls said simultaneously.
"I said, are we fucking ready?" She yelled.
And with that, all five screamed as Elle turned the volume all the way up as they got all fancied up for the wedding.
