Summary: What happens there between Derek and Emily during and after the marriage of Will and JJ? Maybe a one-shot or not, I don't know yet. PLEASE REVIEW.
A/N: Hi everyone! This is my first story about Criminal Minds so tell me what you think, I accept all criticism. :) I write just for fun! Oh and, I'm French so if I make mistakes in grammar just tell me. My fiction begins with the scene between both of them in Rossi's house, that's why I put it back. ;)
At the Rossi's house.
"Emily, look, I know you don't want talk about it but it's exactly what we need to talk about. This is nothing to do with the cracks in the foundation."
"No… But it's a sign."
He rolls his eyes and sighs.
"Please, don't get off free spiritual than me."
She frowns.
"I almost blew up yesterday, twice."
"I Know."
"That's better ground did it you can get."
There was a break before Derek speaks.
"You wanna leave, don't you?"
"I didn't say that."
"This is only reason be disquiet, Emily."
"Can we please… talk about it later?" She begged almost.
"No. How long have you been thinking about this?"
She rolls her eyes in turn.
"Honestly?"
Derek insisted to know the answer raising his eyebrows.
"Since I go back."
She saw the shocked face of Derek.
"Really?"
"It's no you guys, I love you. I just… can't grab on my whole life and pretend that nothing happened. "
"Is it about Easter?"
"No… But he did ask me to run on the London's office."
"And you gonna do it."
"He just ask yesterday."
"But you think about it."
"I don't know yet. I… She took a breath. Ithought buy a house and pull in down roots was gonna fix this feeling, was gonna give me what I wanted but it… It wasn't. It's bigger than that."
They looked in the eyes for a few seconds.
"You think I should stay."
"I think I miss you already."
She looked at him and smiled. She was about to answer him when Penelope came with her shocked, having heard the end of their conversation. Then it was Hotch and Beth with Jack, Derek went to see the fountain with two of them so Hotch found himself alone with Emily. The rest of the evening went beautifully, the wedding was amazing, the food was succulent but Derek and Emily had not found the opportunity to finish their conversation. A bit later, all the guests had begun to dance. She danced with Reid, Rossi, Hotch, then with the girls, and finally with Derek. It was like a farewell she made them each as at the bottom of herself she knew she was leaving. But with Derek, it was more intense, harder, more painful. During all these years he was his partner, his friend and confidant. He had never dropped her, he had even forgiven after the case with Doyle and her fake death. And now they were dancing in the arms of each other so tight as if none of them wanted to leave from the other.
"I'm sorry."
"Why?"
"For hurt all of you, for hurt you… again."
"It's okay, princess. If it's what you want, then I'll always be here for you. Whatever choice you do, you can always count on me."
"Thank you." She whispered and snuggled deeper into his arms.
They continued to dance, laugh and enjoy the last moments together. A few hours later, the party ended. Most were all gone; they remained only family of JJ and Will and the team. Emily said goodbye to everyone and Derek took her back to her car.
"You want me to take you home?"
"No thanks." She smiled.
"Okay, be careful then."
"Don't worry; I'm not a crazy road." She laughed.
"I'm not so sure about it." He joked.
"So that's how you see me? It's wrong knowing me!"
They laughed at both and Emily opened the door of his car.
"I'll see you tomorrow, princess."
She smiled sadly, approached him and kissed on the corner of his mouth. Then she climbed into her car.
"Emily."
She turned her head towards him.
"I'll see you tomorrow, right?" He asked anxiously.
"Yeah, sure."
She smiled one last time and started his car. Derek stood there for a moment, looking her leaving from afar. He felt that something was going to happen, he had seen in her eyes.
TBC…
So, do I continue that? Or I let this as a one-shot? Anyway I hope you like it and PLEASE review. I need it to know if it's good :) Sorry if the dialogue between Derek and Emily is not the same as in the episode but I transcribed the lyrics in listening so maybe there are mistakes.
Thank you! xox
