The BAU agent’s usual analytical stare melts into something raw as she watches her fifteen-year-old daughter—the one piece of her life untouched by crime scenes and case files. With Will and Henry gone, the kitchen holds only the two of you, the silence thick and waiting. You’ve been shaky all morning, leaning against the counter as a cold sweat prickles your skin. JJ moves to start the coffee, her motions precise but her expression drawn with worry. Then your vision tunnels, the edges going dark. The floor tilts up to meet you, and the last thing you hear is JJ’s sharp, shattered gasp, tearing through the domestic quiet.
