This two-shot is based off of the Episode "The Fisher King: Part 2" It's when Derek and JJ are together and they find out Elle was shot. So I'm adding some time spent between them after they get back to the team and it's the first night after Elle got hurt and the unsub died.
"Elle has been shot. She's in the OR."
Derek had felt sick to his stomach when JJ relayed the message to him. He had a bad feeling that something bad was going to happen and when JJ told Elle had been shot, it confirmed his fears. Elle had been shot and even worst, she was in critical condition. He had jammed on the brakes and turned the car around to return to Elle, but JJ stopped him and told him that they had to continue what they're doing. Morgan was so tempted to drop everything and return to Elle, but he knew that JJ was right and that they had to solve this case, or else Elle wouldn't be the last victim.
It's been a day since Elle was shot and Morgan didn't feel any better about it. He felt sick and pissed and he was sure that if he had ever gotten his hand on that son of a bitch that hurt Elle, he'd have killed him without hesitation. He quickly glanced over at JJ to see her in a fitful sleep on the office couch. She looked about as aggravated as he did, even in sleep and Morgan felt bad about it. He kind of took out his frustration on her and even worst he hadn't really said anything to make up for his foul mood. It amazed him the amount of crap JJ took but didn't retaliate; she just took it in stride and let him get out all the frustration he was feeling. She truly was an extraordinary woman and any man that got her heart was damn lucky, Morgan did silently promise himself that if anyone were to hurt JJ, he'd make sure that person would never be able to walk again.
He sighed and walked over to JJ, he hesitated for a second before reaching down and shaking JJ awake. She jumped slightly before seeing it was he. Taking a moment to stretch and yawn she then asked, "What's up?"
He smiled crookedly before replying, "Let me take you home." She almost shook her head no, but she could see in his eyes that he needed to do this; he needed to do something. She knew that Morgan would take seeing Elle in a hospital really hard because he couldn't do anything to save her. JJ knew about Morgan's hero complex and when he feels like someone got hurt because he wasn't there to save him or her then he feels a guilt that could envelope the whole team. JJ has seen Morgan's willingness to go into danger without the proper backup and put his life in jeopardy and from what she's seen she knows that he'll never stop doing that unless it either kills him or he's willing to see that he doesn't always have to save the day.
She smiled at him gently before saying, "Sure. Just let me grab my stuff." She rose slowly and groaned when her back popped back into place. She then trudged into her office to grab her files and stuff. When she looked back she saw Morgan standing in her doorway waiting for her with a wry grin on his face. "Oh shut up, you know I have my own little organization system." She scowled at him, knowing that her desk just looked like a pile of folders on her desk. She shook her head at him before following him out toward the elevators. They waited for about a minute before they got in and headed down to the parking lot. At first the quiet was comfortable, but there was some stuff JJ wanted to tell Morgan. She wanted him to talk to her and tell her how he was feeling. She knew about his 4 properties, she knew how he coped with things, but she wished he would open up to someone, not necessarily her.
When they got to his car, Morgan opened the door for her and got her settled before heading around to the other side and climbing in. He started the car, quickly glancing at JJ before heading out of the parking lot. JJ sighed quietly before looking out the window to watch the scenery go buy. She didn't live far from work, but she wasn't close either so they had quite a drive. She wanted to say something but at the same time she wanted the car to remain silent till they reached her house. She glanced in Derek's direction, his eyes focused on the road. She took in the strong set of his jaw; the slight beard and she couldn't help the admiration she had for his looks. He was so attractive, pretty much all the lady FBI agents' dream. She could remember times when Pen, Elle and she would discuss Morgan's hotness. It was a hot topic among them.
She grinned slightly before reaching down and turning on the radio. The smooth tones of R&B came out of the speakers and relaxed the mood in the car. She was more of Jazz and Country kind of girl but she could enjoy this kind of music. She bobbed her head to the rhythm of the music, surprised that Morgan didn't comment on her touching his radio. She knew that there were men that would get touchy about women touching their radio, but Morgan was cool with it. She leaned her head back and closed her eyes, letting the past day's events wash over her. It went from one stressor to the next and she thought she was going to pull her hair out at one point. She sighed again as she tried to forget all that happened.
"You okay?" Derek's calm baritone washing over her in a calming wave.
"Yeah, I'm good. Just really tired." She replied with a slight grin. Morgan returned it with a nod and focused back on the road.
"We're almost there." She nodded in turn and looked back out the window again. She almost sighed in relief when they reached her apartment building. She waited for Morgan to turn the car off before turning to face him.
She paused for a minute before asking what was on her mind. "Do you want to come up for coffee or something?" She waited; silently berating herself for asking and at the same time scared that he would reject her.
"I don't know JJ…" she nodded knowing that he was rejecting, "but I don't want to go home right now." She looked up at him in shock before giving him a small smile and nodding. She opened her door and climbed out then reached for the back door when Derek's hand stopped hers. He opened the back door and grabbed her bag; nodding for her to go ahead. He followed her slowly and waited for her to open the door to her apartment. He hesitated for a second before going in after her. He took a moment to take in his surroundings and nodded that this was definitely the apartment of agent Jennifer Jareau. It was neat with an organized mess here and there and in a way it was perfect for her. Morgan smiled before looking to JJ whom appeared to be waiting for his approval of her place. He gave her a smiled before walking toward her. "You wouldn't happen to have a beer would you?"
"Uh yeah. A corona good?" She shook herself out of her reverie and walked into the kitchen.
"Yeah, that sounds good." Morgan sighed before falling into JJ's coach waiting for her to return from the kitchen. He continued to look around her place, getting a feel for the woman he had come to care about a lot. She was confident, intelligent, compassionate and sexy as hell. The best thing about her though was that she gave as good as she got and she was a woman with a great sense of humor; able to kick back with the boys but maintain her femininity. Morgan sighed in pleasure when JJ returned with the beers. "Thanks."
"No problem. Excuse me for a second; I'm just going to change into something more comfortable. If you want you can borrow some of the clothes my brothers left back here?" Derek hesitated for a second knowing that if he stayed something could happen that would change things between him and JJ. Even with all of that Morgan could not get himself to leave.
"Sure, a pair of sweat pants would be good." JJ nodded before heading down the hall into her room. She returned a couple minutes later with a pair of sweatpants.
"This one should fit. You can change in the bathroom down the hall." Derek nodded before heading into the bathroom to change. He looked around the bathroom and smiled at the organization of JJ's bathroom. It was really neat, like freaky neat, which is the opposite of the chaos she calls her office. Derek sighed before looking at himself in the mirror. He wiped his face before pulling of his shirt and pants then pulling the sweats leaving himself bare-chested. Morgan was just opening the door when JJ was about to knock, spilled the beer she was holding in her hand on his chest. "Shit! I mean I am so sorry Derek, um, let me help you with that." She tried to ignore how the beer seemed to be much more appealing now that it was dripping down Morgan's chiseled body.
She quickly grabbed a towel and started to wipe down his chest not paying attention to the darkening of Morgan's eyes. She gasped in surprise when his hand grasped her wrist gently. She looked up to see his eyes focused on her lips, the intensity and lust there more intense then she has ever seen from a man. Her breaths started to get shorter when she felt herself being pulled against Morgan's body. His hard form powerful and intimidating and JJ knew she couldn't break the spell he had her body under no matter what she did. She looked into his eyes and she knew that in this moment she wanted Morgan to take what he wanted and dominate her, she needed him to kiss her, her body heated and her breathing labored. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath before brushing his lips around her neck, barely touching her but driving her crazy all the same. "Derek please!" She watched his nostrils flare before he turned her around and pressed her against the wall. He paused for a second, questioning her for a second, but she merely moaned in answer giving Derek the permission he needed. He brushed his lips against hers before deepening the kiss and enveloping JJ in a deep earth-shattering kiss.
