Hidden

Chapter 6: 'the cover up'

*Emilys POV*
I woke up the next morning still shaking. It started to feel like this feeling was never going to go away, I was even believing it. It has been 1 day since the nightmare happened to me and it still felt like it was yesterday. I didn't get much sleep, still taunted by what happened every last graphic detail and Image. I was too ill and to upset to go to work yesterday as it had just happened, and the way I was acting, it was too risky to go to work. I have been practicing how to cover my bruises with different types and shades of concealer and foundation all day and having showers Inbetween so I can cleanse myself of everything that he touched. I know now what this son of a bitch is capable of and that he actually means he will hurt someone that I care about if I tell anyone. I'm going to find it hard to hide it because I mean there profilers. But I just gave to be myself and act completely normal.

Emily walked to her bathroom and applied her foundation and the bruises where gone. She then added mascara to her full, long, black eyelashes, then her usual pink mac lipstick she always wears. She placed the foundation in her bag just incase the bruises started to show through. Then she walked out of the door and went to her car.

Everyone was seated at the round table, all talking about another case. Emily was relieved as no one had asked her if she's okay. Even though she couldn't tell anyone, I don't think she would want to as she would be embarrassed even if Hotch or Derek or reid found out, and it would break Garcias heart. But what if he's doing it to her? Maybe what he told her he also told Garcia. Even though emily is going through it she wouldn't want anyone else to.

Everyone had finished the briefing and was on their way to back up L A P D to catch a criminal who killed police officers. The BAU are only there to collect the Unsub as they need back up as they don't have any, they already know who the killer is.
"Wheels up in 10" hotch noted as everyone cleared the room.
"Hey pen you okay?" Emily asked.
"Yes I'm fine just fine James is so cute we were up all night texting" Garcia said with that smile that only a man can make.
"Awh that's so so sweet" Emily said with a fake smile.

Emily walked away, pulling herself from the situation where she wanted to tell Garcia everything. But she knew the risks and she didn't want anyone to get hurt. She is just going have to solve this herself, without anyone finding out. This is going to be a risky task.
