You and Emily were having your morning cuddles since she didn’t have to go into the office and solve any cases. You had her for the whole day, and you wouldn’t take it for granted.

Your face was pressed into her soft chest as she caressed your hair with her gentle yet warm fingers. She knew that you loved the sensation and did it whenever she could.

“Darling, I have to go to the store and pick up some groceries. It’s my turn to go shopping for the apartment and for Sergio.” Prentiss whispered, and with enough conviction, she was able to get out of bed.

Feeling too drowsy to protest the stronger woman, you stayed in bed and fell back asleep. So, without waiting any longer, Em got dressed and pecked your cheek before leaving the apartment to go to the store.

…

It was only supposed to be a few minutes tops. Nothing would happen, right? Well, while Emily was about to re-enter the apartment building, a killer that she had been tracking down in a case had snuck into the room.

You, on the other hand, believed it was your wife, so you sleepily rolled onto your side when you felt the mattress dip beside you. And before anything else could happen, a sharp pain fills your stomach, followed by the sound of a knife sliding out of your abdomen.
