Cheeto Famine

Saw a photo on Facebook and I immediately thought of JJ and had to write this. Super short, hopefully funny story/drabble thing.

To say the last week had been Hell for Jennifer Jareau would be the understatement of the century. She and her wife, Emily Prentiss, had been arguing over the dumbest things; first it was what Henry should wear for his school photos, then there was the argument of a home birth versus hospital birth for the child Emily was carrying at the moment, after that was what color to paint the nursery since they'd refused to find out the sex of the baby.

Now, the blonde profiler stood in front of the vending machine in the break room of the BAU floor, scanning the selections she let out a groan and smacked the side of the machine.

"What'd the vendin' machine do to you?"

JJ turned around to see Derek Morgan staring at her and kicked the machine this time, "They took the Cheetos out!"

Derek raised a brow, "You're beatin' up the machine because the guy that stocks it stopped puttin' Cheetos in there? That's not the machine's fault, Jayje. Tell me what's really up?"

The blonde plopped down in the nearest chair with a huff, "Emily and I have been arguing over nothing. Henry called his teacher a dumbass the other day and got sent home. What kind of parent does that make me when my 5 year old calls their teacher a dumbass? Emily said she feels like a blimp and won't let me touch her so I'm ridiculously frustrated. And now? Now I can't get any damn Cheetos anywhere in this stupid building!"

"Ok, how about this?" Derek chuckled, "I'll go grab you some Cheetos at the store down the road since I'm done with my paper work for the day?"

JJ smiled, "I could kiss you, Derek William Morgan."

"Why are you kissing Morgan?"

JJ and Morgan turned to see a very pregnant Emily enter the break room.

"I'm goin' to buy her some Cheetos since there's none in the machine. You want anything?"

Emily shook her head, "I'm good thanks, I was just on my way to the bathroom for the 8th time in the last hour and heard you guys."

"Well you get going before you have an accident," JJ stood and gave her wife a peck on the cheek before pulling a $5 bill from her pocket and handing it to Derek, "Find the biggest bag you can, I'm gunna need it."

Derek nodded and left the room as Emily walked as fast as possible toward the bathroom. Once JJ was alone, she rummaged the break room for paper and a pen, scribbling something down, and taping it to the vending machine. The blonde smiled to herself before heading back to her office.

Less than twenty minutes later, Derek had made his way back to the BAU floor. He stopped by the break room to see if JJ was still there. Upon entering the room he noticed the piece of paper taped to the front of the vending machine and couldn't hold back his laugh:

Put Cheetos back in this machine or I will snip the power cord. You have one week.

"Good, ole JJ." Derek shook his head as he made his way toward the blonde's office.
