To See You Again Chapter 1
"So you're gone and I'm haunted And I bet you are just fine Did I make it that easy to walk Right in and out of my life?"
She watched everything unfold in front of her, watching, as the rest of the world, the building blew up, as Interpol charged a terrorist hideout that they have been monitoring for months.
The phone rang.
"Clyde."
"He's gone Emily."
Her worst fear is now a reality.
She holds her bulging stomach. And tears began to flow.
The phone rang again. She looked at the number. It was an international call.
"JJ."
"Oh my God Emily, we've been watching the news. I'm getting on the next flight."
"There's no need for you to do that JJ."
"Stop it Emily. I'm going there to be with you. The team is here. You're on speaker, Emily."
"I don't know what to say. I'm still in shock. We've only been here barely 5 months and now, he's gone. We're supposed to get married after I give birth but… Mom…"
The team was silent and each member had tears in their eyes. They heard Emily's sobs.
"Sweetheart (calling her husband, Robert), go talk to Emily's team. I'll take her inside the bedroom and calm her down."
"This is Emily's father Robert."
"Hello, Sir. This is Jennifer."
"Hello, Jennifer. As you can imagine, we are all still in shock. We were hoping for a better outcome but, my God, the British government should have expected this."
"We are really sorry to hear about Mick, Sir, as I mentioned earlier to Emily, I will be flying out there to be with Emily and help her in any way I can, on behalf of the team."
"I can come and pick you up at the airport, Jennifer. What time is your flight arriving?"
"Around 11 o'clock in the morning, Sir."
"Heathrow Airport, right?"
"Yes sir."
Flashback almost 5 months ago…
Emily smiled as she signed her last case report. She and Mick Rawson were leaving to move to London.
After the episode with Ian Doyle finally being put to rest and her second chance at life, she decided that she will take a chance at love and finally having a life.
It was by chance in Los Angeles that she ran into Mick Rawson, the handsome, arrogant and brooding Welsh, that the team worked with on a case over a year ago. He had been calling her before asking her out but she refused his advances because she knew that he was a ladies man.
But after coding in the ambulance and seeing nothing but darkness and coldness, she vowed to herself that if she was given a second chance in life, she will do things differently.
So when she ran into Mick in Los Angeles, and they had gone out to dinner, before, she got shot in the arm, he had promised to fly out and see her in DC. It became a routine for them for months. He flies out to DC or she flies out to Los Angeles.
Then Mick told her that he got an offer to come back to the UK and work with Interpol again to penetrate a terrorist cell there.
Mick told her that he wanted her to come with him but he would understand if she can't. And that as soon as his work is done with Interpol he would come back to the US.
She thought about it long and hard. Her parents, retired and now living in Europe. They have a house in France and another house in London. She has been wanting to connect with her mother and misses her parents terribly.
Still, she loved the BAU and her family there.
But she finally made her decision, when a visit to the doctor confirmed what she suspected. She's with child.
She told Mick that they were going to have a baby and Mick couldn't be happier. She agreed to move to London with him. She called her parents about the news and they told her, they will be waiting for her and Mick there.
She then told her team.
They were sad but happy for her and Mick.
She said her goodbye to each of them.
That was the last time she saw her BAU family.
