Prompt : The Best Day – Taylor Swift
Sorry Is Never Enough
The team had managed to swindle a weekend off. Strauss had reluctantly agreed that after the last few cases the 'A-team' deserved some cooling off time. Of course that would include spending an evening in a bar. No better way to cool off than to have few drinks and forget about all your worries.
It had been an uneventful night really. Morgan was dancing, Garcia was also, with Kevin of course. Rossi and JJ were battling it out on the pool table and Reid was refereeing. Not very well. Emily and Hotch were at the bar getting more drinks. When they finally got back to the very competitive game of pool, it seemed that hell was about to break lose. Rossi wasn't liking the fact he was being beaten by JJ, she was upset that he was assuming women were inferior and Reid was rambling and trying to defend himself and his correct decision.
"Guys...you do know it's just a game right?" Emily laughed
"Yeah a game in which I'm beating Dave, me being female!" JJ stated "I'm so sorry you find that so embarrassing Dave, but I did warn you I was good"
"Yeah just be grateful you never wagered anything" Hotch informed him with a not so well hidden grin on his face
"Yeah your right, it's just a game, that's all it is" Rossi went over and took a gulp of his drink, then turned back to JJ "Right, best out of three!" the group laughed at him
"Dave please remember it is just a game...please?" Hotch smiled at his friend
"Yeah, yeah, yeah...come on rack em' up" everyone could clearly see the obvious signs of frustration on his face and in his body language.
Emily had disappeared to the bathroom, but on her way back she got stopped by a guy who was forward to say the least. Hotch noticed the exchange and headed over to make sure everything was okay.
"Listen jackass, I'm not interested so get over it" Hotch could see she was about to lose it with the guy and stepped in.
"Prentiss you okay?" he asked her firmly
"You not even going to let me buy you a drink?"
"After you thought it was okay to grab my ass, a drink is the last thing I want from you!"
Hotch stepped in as he saw the anger spread across the guys face at the rejection, he stood in between the two.
"Go and cool off pal!" the guy stood toe-to-toe with Hotch. "I wouldn't if I were you" he spoke down to the man in front of him.
"Whatever man, I didn't know she was your girl...no harm in trying though right?" the guy smiled and retreated back to his own group. Hotch turned back to Emily.
"You didn't need to do that, I had it under control" she told him a little annoyed he had got involved
"It looked like you were going to punch him... it's a little early to be politely asked to leave don't you think?"
"Sorry, you're right...thank you"
"No problem" they were still stood in a door way as someone pushed passed them to get by, causing them to get a little closer. Hotch wasn't sure why he did it, but being so close to her made him lose his control a little and he leaned down to kiss her. It was just a brief kiss and it made the two laugh a little
"That was unexpected" she smiled up at him.
"Was it?" he asked, but before he could go in for another kiss JJ appeared
"Hotch? Sorry but I think Dave needs a friend..." she nodded her head into the direction of Dave Rossi over her shoulder.
"You know JJ it wouldn't have hurt to just let him win one game" Emily laughed,
"I did try and let him win!" with that they headed back to the pool table.
"Emily...We'll need to talk about this" he spoke quietly into her ear, so JJ didn't over hear them. She nodded in agreement. Hotch then took Dave's side and listened to him ramble about being fine with it. But it was obvious he wasn't and Emily and JJ decided to hit the dance floor with the others. The rest of the night went on as normal, like the exchange between Emily had Hotch never happened. But both knew they were going to have to talk about it. They may have had a few drinks but they were sober enough to know what they were doing and the kiss was just a notification of a mutual feeling they had for each other. There was no denying it anymore. Both of them were happy with what happened, it was just a shame they got interrupted. It had been the best day for this to happen, as there wasn't going to be a case all weekend, so they would get time to talk about it. In depth and by the looks of it no one had spotted the scene between them, so they had no outside influences to worry about. Not yet anyway.
