A/N #1: Throughout this story, there will be mentions of domestic abuse, sexual assault by a partner and femslash. If you are sensitive to any of those then I suggest you don't read this story.

A/N #2: I will also rush JJ and Emily's relationship a little so that there won't be many boring chapters. If that's not your thing then that's also another reason to not read.

A/N #3: If you don't mind any of the things above, then I hope you like this story :D Happy reading and don't forget to review! :D

It was a quiet night at the BAU. It was already past 8:30 PM, but everybody was still there doing paperwork.

Emily was sitting at her desk when she heard someone coming up behind her.

"Hey, Em." The person said, sitting on her desk.

Emily looked up and saw JJ smiling at her.

"Hey, JJ." Emily said with a smile.

Even though nobody knew it, she secretly loved JJ. When she met her, she just couldn't believe that she would be working with someone as beautiful as JJ.

JJ was everything she'd ever wanted. To put it mildly, JJ was the girl of her dreams.

She remembered a night when the two of them had gone out for drinks.

"How about one more?" Emily asked as she held her glass up.

"Only if it's on me." JJ said with a smile.

Emily chuckled back at her. "No problem." She said.

They told the bartender to get them another drink. When the bartender returned with their drinks, they took a sip.

"Hey JJ?" Emily asked. She wasn't sure if it was the alcohol talking, but she felt the need to tell her friend something she had been hiding since she joined the team.

"Yeah?" JJ asked as she looked at Emily, expectantly.

"I don't know why, but I feel like I have to tell you something, but you have to promise me you won't freak out, okay?" Emily asked, nervously. She was afraid of losing JJ's friendship forever.

"O...kay?" It came out as more of a question as she became a little concerned at her friend's words.

"I-uhm-I..." Emily stumbled over her words, feeling tongue-tied, not knowing how to tell JJ this.

"What is it, Em?" JJ asked, carefully.

"Just promise me you won't freak out. Promise me, Jayje." Emily begged as she looked into JJ's eyes.

"I promise. Tell me, Emily." JJ promised, as she looked back into Emily's.

"I-Jayje, I like-I like gir-girls. I'm into women." Emily admitted as she waited anxiously for JJ's response, her leg bouncing up and down, nervously.

"Calm down, Em. I'm not going to freak out." JJ said with a smile and a chuckle as she saw the relieved look that crossed Emily's face.

"Oh, thank God." Emily muttered as she let out a breath she didn't even realize she was holding.

"But it does make it easier to say that I am too. I wasn't going to say anything, but since you admitted it, I guess it's only fair that I do too." JJ said with a small chuckle.

"Really? You are?" Emily asked unbelievably.

"Yeah, really. I'm currently in a relationship with a woman." JJ said with a slight laugh and a fake smile that Emily didn't notice was actually fake.

Emily smiled although her heart was breaking. The one chance she had with JJ had just gone out the window, but she realized that as long as JJ was happy, then she was happy.

However, what Emily thought was a little bit strange was that, whenever she asked questions about JJ's girlfriend, JJ would always change the subject. Emily thought that maybe JJ was just the jealous type and didn't want to show her girlfriend off to anybody, since she had never met the other woman and neither had the team. To Emily's knowledge, nobody knew who this woman was.

"I think I'm going to head home, what about you?" JJ asked as she looked at Emily.

Emily shrugged.

"Yeah, I think I am too. I'm tired of paperwork and it will still be here in the morning, so...I'll walk you out?" Emily asked with a smile.

JJ grinned and nodded.

"Alright, let's go then." Emily said, grabbing her jacket off her chair and putting it on before grabbing her gun, clipping it to her belt, her cellphone and other essential stuff she had brought with her to work.

When Emily had all her things they started walking out.

"Bye guys!" The two girls said to the remaining agents.

"Goodnight!" The guys shouted back as JJ and Emily left.

When they got to the parking lot, Emily couldn't see JJ's car.

"Jayje, where's your car?" Emily asked.

"Oh, I almost forgot. I parked it on a street, a few blocks away from here, since the parking lot was full when I got in this morning." JJ said with a chuckle.

"Okay, I'll walk you there and then I'll come back to get mine." Emily said, being the gentlewoman that she was.

"Emily, it's only a few blocks away. I'll be fine." JJ insisted.

"Oh hell no. There is no way I'm going to let you walk even one block alone, much less at night." Emily said. To say she was protective was an understatement. She knew JJ could stand up for herself if something happened, but she didn't want to risk it, so she was adamant to go with her.

"Okay." JJ said, quietly. Emily found it weird that JJ gave in that easily, she was always one to put up a fight, but she assumed it was probably because she was tired and just wanted to get home.

They walked quietly to JJ's car, but before JJ got in, she turned to Emily.

"Thanks for coming with me. Do you want me to drop you off at the parking lot?" She asked.

"No, thanks. I'll walk. Have a safe drive home. I'll see you tomorrow." Emily said with a smile.

JJ smiled back.

"See you tomorrow." She said as she got in her car and drove off.

Emily just stood there watching as JJ's car faded into the night before making her way to her own car.
