Chapter 17: 'the text'

Aaron was still shocked about what happened, he hadn't slept a wink all night because all he could think about was how he could ask emily about what happened and if she really is in trouble but he didn't know how to. But if it is really happening then he needs to help her. He had to set of to work and pretend like it's a normal day. He dropped jack of at Jessica's and then he set of to work. As he walked through those familiar glass doors he saw Reid finishing some of his paper work on his desk, Morgan and jj were getting some of that bitter coffee that no one likes but drinks it anyway. Then he saw Emily at her desk with her head down, his mind was pulling him towards her but then his feet were glued to the floor.

"We have a case hotch" jj said as she speed walk past him and headed to the briefing room.

They were all in the briefing room talking about a new case in New York about 5 woman that have been stabbed to death with a symbol carved in there back. Emily brightened up a bit knowing that she was going to be away from home for a couple of days.

"Wheels up in 10" hotch notified as he walked to his office to grab his to-go bag.

{10 minuets later}

Emily was sitting at the back right hand corner of the plane reading over the files. The she heard her phone ring and she opened the text message it was from James. She froze for a minuet before she had even read the text she was just staring at the name. It was so long that he screen went darker then the screen switched off. With her heart racing she unlocked her phone and started reading the text:

Her stomach done a 360 degrees turn. She had to tell someone because he is going to kill her when her performance doesn't matter to him anymore. Her time was running out, but who is she going to tell?

"Em you okay?" Spencer asked.

"Yeah I'm fine, you?" Emily said.

"I'm good, if there was something on your mind you would tell me?" Spencer asked.

This put emily in a difficult position she wanted to tell him but she just couldn't.

"Course I would" Emily lied.

Spencer smiled at Emily and she smiled back.

They all arrived at NYPD and were getting put up to speed about all the things they had found in this case. Once they were up to date, they were putting together a profile.

"Jj, reid can stay here and help Garcia with the background research. Morgan and Rossi can go to the dump site while me and prentiss can go to the crime scene" hotch ordered.

This gave him a chance to ask Emily what was really going on. He had been thinking all day how he should bring it up and how he shouldn't chicken out.

Emily and Aaron sat down and were on there way to the crime scene, he didn't have much time so he better ask quick.

"Um prentiss, is there anything going on that you need to talk about? Hotch asked.

"No I'm fine why?" Emily asked as she looked down to the floor.
