I know a lot of you are struggling with Morgan. Don't panic. I promise it will get better. In any story you have to have the craziness before the calm. I promise this is a JJ/Emily story and it will become that if you hold onto your panties so to speak. Well you guys have voted...I'm sorry for the couple of people that wanted it the other way. I hope you continue to follow despite...


Dr Ellory smiled, "Well invest in lots of..."

The door swung open and a very flustered, out of breath blonde burst into the room.

"Jennifer?" Emily said surprised before her face changed into irritation.

JJ saw the look on her face and quickly moved to her side, "Okay, I know you told me not to come but I had to."

"Jennifer..." Emily sighed.

"No hear me out, okay? I'm forgetting Morgan right now because I love you and I love this baby okay? I love him or her. Please don't ask me to not be here for this," she said tearfully.

The brunette looked at JJ in that moment properly for the first time in a while. She had never felt more selfish. She looked tired, emotional, lost. Like she had been fighting a huge war and realistically she had. What had happened to the days they were just so blissfully in love? Now it was reduced to heartache, tears and confusion.

Emily reached for the blonde's hand and brought it up to press a delicate kiss to her lips. "Okay," she whispered, "I love you, I'm sorry."

JJ smiled tearfully leaning down to kiss her girlfriend, "I love you too baby." She took a breath to calm herself down. "I'm okay," she breathed out reigning in the tears, "No crying."

"We'll talk it through," Emily squeezed JJ's hand, "I promise. So no crying," she chuckled.

"No cry-..." JJ looked up at the screen and immediately the flood gates opened, "Oh wow," she whispered in awe leaning closer to the screen. "Peanut looks like a baby," she said excitedly giggling slightly, "Oh Em look at the tiny hands...And feet..."

Dr Ellory and Emily couldn't help but grin at JJ's excitement and delight.

"That's your..." Emily glanced at Dr Ellory to announce it.

"Baby girl," the doctor announced with a grin, "Invest in lots of pink."

JJ turned to look between the two shocked, "W-We're having...It's a girl!" she happily cried out nearly sobbing. "Don't get me wrong I would have loved a boy too...But a girl. I hoped it would be a girl...Oh...Em...A mini you!" her voice full of emotion.

Emily looked at JJ just as tearfully, "I'm gonna have a daughter," she said in disbelief. This made it suddenly so real.


The blonde pulled her girlfriend in for a huge hug in the bullpen before they had to separate to go to work. She headed back to her desk remembering she need a new notebook from the stationary cupboard. As she turned the light on with a happy smirk remembering the time they were caught in here together in a rather compromising position, the door opened and a furious Morgan marched in.

"You went without me!" Morgan shouted absolutely furious and upset. "You fucking went without me!"

"I couldn't miss something like that..." JJ started.

"You are a nasty bitch!" Morgan exclaimed, "You knew I wanted to be there for my kid and you purposely went behind my back! You can pretend all you want that you are something to do with this baby...You really think my daughter is going to look at you like a Mom? Emily is the Mom and I'm the Dad! You...You are nothing!" he shouted before leaving the cupboard leaving the blonde in tears.

Emily frowned as JJ returned a while later to her desk looking lost and pained. The smile that had been firmly planted on her face was gone completely. "Are you okay?" she asked softly across the desks concerned.

"Y-Yeah," JJ smiled at her though it didn't reach her eyes, "I'm fine."

The brunette frowned, they had been together over 3 years. She was not fine. "Jennifer..."

"I'm fine," the blonde snapped, "Leave it."

Emily looked at her shocked, "O-Okay but I'm here if you want to talk."


Two weeks later

Ever since that day in the bullpen JJ had been scarily distant. They would go about their lives in a ritual. JJ and Morgan were polite to each other for their jobs sake but that was as far as it went. As a couple they hadn't made love since then or really interacted at all. The blonde hadn't even touched Peanut or interacted with her either. She was in the flat but she wasn't at the same time and it was terrifying her. She had tried so many times to talk about it but every time JJ would blow her off. The brunette was waiting for the moment where the blonde stated she couldn't do this anymore and left.

Emily lay in the bed in silence staring up at the ceiling. She knew JJ was awake. She knew the signs of the blonde going to sleep. First her whole body would twitch and then when she was fully asleep she would breathe deeply. It had been an unusual experience to get used to. But now she couldn't sleep properly without her. "Jennifer," she whispered sadly, "Please talk to me. I can't bare this any longer."

Silence.

"Please," Emily cried, "If you tell me I can fix..."

"You can't fix nothing," JJ whispered back.

The brunette turned her head to look at the blonde's back, "What?" She moved closer to her in the bed so she was leaning over JJ's body.

"I-I'm nothing," JJ sobbed out.

Emily moved the blonde over and brought her into her body, "Baby," she held the crying woman, "I don't understand."

"T-To the...baby...I'm n-nothing," the blonde cried into Emily's body, weeks of shutting down her emotions until like a volcano they just erupted. She couldn't breathe for the crying. She cried so hard. So hard she couldn't talk or control her body. She clung to Emily like she was her life support. To scared to let go. She never wanted to let go because if she let go she lost her family; the woman that she loved and the baby girl that she had come to see as her own.

Emily held the blonde as she sobbed, "You're everything!" she whispered again and again until after a good hour the blonde had calmed down. Running out of tears so all that was left was hiccupping, wet mess. "You can never be nothing baby," she whispered stroking her hair and back as JJ continued to practically lie on top of her. "This baby is going to love you so much. Probably more than me," she smiled at the thought.

"Morgan said..." JJ stated.

The brunette's breath hitched, "Morgan said what?!" she growled angrily.

The blonde hearing her voice shook her head, "It doesn't matter." He was the father to the baby. She didn't want to be the reason the baby's parents fell out.

"What did he say? Tell me or I swear to God..." Emily breathed out getting more and more worked up. Feeling the need to march around to his house and kick him in the balls.

"After the scan...After we found out it was a girl," JJ whispered knowing for Emily's blood pressure alone she had to be honest, "He cornered me in the stationary cupboard and after calling me a nasty bitch...He said...He said I was n-nothing. That Peanut already had a Mom and Dad."

Emily lay there stunned. She knew it was bad but she never thought it was Morgan being that nasty. She shook her head, "That's not true at all!" she moved from the bed ready to go and give him a piece of her mind.

"Emily don't please," JJ begged holding her back, "Think of Peanut. Please!"

The brunette sighed, "This isn't over Jennifer. I'm going to kill him!" she growled out.

JJ couldn't help but smile slightly at Emily's protectiveness. It reassured her that she did feel different to him. She pushed the brunette back down in the bed and cuddled into her body running her fingertips gently over Emily's prominent bump. "I know I'm nothing," she whispered.

"Jennifer..." Emily tried to chime in.

"But I want to be something. I feel like the baby's Mom," JJ continued.

"You are the baby's Mom. I will speak to him I promise. God this is such a mess. But you are her Mom Jennifer," Emily whispered.

"How can you know that?" JJ whispered back sadly moving to place her head on the bump and her had on it gently. "How do you know when she's born I'm not just your girlfr-," JJ jumped up looking down at her stomach in shock. "D-Did she just? Did s-she just...Oh my God Peanut just kicked me!" she said in disbelief. She placed her hand back on the bump and after a couple of seconds was rewarded with a light tapping on the palm of her hand.

Emily smiled happily, "That is how I know," she said in awe feeling the odd sensation from that of the first movements. "She loves you Jennifer already so, so much. Just wait and see the evidence of that as she grows. I know for a fact she's going to come out loving the sound of your voice. Loving when you sing for her. Loving being in your arms. Morgan is the father yes, but this is more about us. You are with me. The three of us are a family. She's your daughter. I could never stop him from seeing her but I will set boundaries. I promise you mi amor, I promise you that. I love you and I will make it right. I promise."

JJ moved to capture Emily's lips in a heated kiss. "Should we call Morgan. I guess he'd want to..."

The brunette shook her head, "This our time as a family. He can find out when we next see him. Boundary number one. I just want to spend time with my beautiful girlfriend and our gorgeous daughter."

The blonde grinned tearfully happy to have this moment for herself. The baby had kicked just for her. Not anyone else. Not Morgan. Jennifer Jareau and she loved every moment of it. With the exception of Emily and her family she had never felt such unconditional love for someone in her life and she knew that was just going to get stronger and stronger. She lay back down, her head on Emily's stomach and hand back on her belly waiting for another kick. "Hey Peanut. I can't believe you just kicked for us," she kissed the bump feeling a kick near her hand. The first time is had spoken to the baby with Emily knowingly awake. "I love you so much." She breathed out, "My daughter."
