How come all the pretty girls like you are taken baby. I've been looking for someone like you to save me. Life's too easy to be so damn complicated. Take your time and I'll be waitin'. Keep me in mind. Somewhere down the road you might get lonely. Keep me in mind. And I pray someday that you will love me only.
The Afternoon
All day long, the BAU team were in their office or the bullpen completing reports and meetings. They were bored out of their minds, and drained. Morgan was SO glad the day would be over in two hours. He suggested they all go out for dinner and drinks. Garcia, Emily and Rossi were game. They ganged up on Hotch until he agreed to go, but he wasn't staying late. JJ called her baby sitter and got her to stay until midnight. She didn't usually go out with the team. JJ preferred to go home to her son. Henry was still adjusting to the fact that his father had moved away. Will stayed in touch every other day with Henry via webcam conversations. She had stopped missing him after the first six months. But she didn't date, after Will. JJ worried about bringing strange men into her life … or into her son's life.
Reid was the only hold out. Each of the team took their shot haranguing him to go with them. One by one every quarter hour on the hour, like clockwork:
Morgan was first. Then Garcia. Then Emily. Followed by Rossi. Then Hotch (of all people). Reid resisted them all. After he told Hotch, "No.", Hotch gave Reid his stoic look and said, "Reid, am I going to have to order you to go?" Everyone except Reid could tell that Hotch was kidding. Reid looked worried, and started sputtering, "What? … Sir? … I apologize for disobeying …" He was getting really wound up. JJ had just joined them in the bullpen when she heard Hotch ordering Reid. Of course, she knew he was joking, but she saw how distressed Reid had become. "Hotch!" JJ chastised the unit chief. Hotch told Reid he was only playing around. He stopped causing trouble and went back to his office, laughing.
After the team settled down, JJ walked up to Reid's desk. "Reid. I know you don't like hanging out. Usually, I go straight home to Henry. But I've made arrangements with my sitter … I don't have to be home until midnight. Please come? You don't have to stay late. When you're ready to go … tell me … and I'll give you a ride home. Come on, please …?" JJ smiled gently at her friend.
Reid had no choice but to give in. He always seemed to agree with whatever JJ wanted. Reid didn't mind because JJ never abused the favoritism she knew he showed towards her.
I think about you somedays. And the way I would lay and waste a day after day with you. We always go our separate ways. But no one can love you baby the way I do. Well the world can be real tough. Find shelter in me. If there's no one else to love. Keep me in mind.
If ever you wanted me, I'll be your man. I'd be a fool to let you go with someone else. Whatever you want from me, I'll be your man. I'd give it all up just to have you for myself. Keep me in mind. Somewhere down the road you might get lonely. Keep me in mind. And I pray someday that you will love me only.
Later That Evening
It's was now 10 pm. They were enjoying themselves. Even Reid had relaxed a bit, and managed to laugh a little during the night. Hotch and Rossi had left at 9 pm. Morgan, Garcia, and Emily hadn't even slowed down. They kept drinking and dancing with each other, as well as other patrons in the bar. JJ had kept track of the time. She didn't want to keep the babysitter waiting past midnight. It usually takes her an hour to get home during rush hour. But it only takes about 30 minutes late at night. She knew she couldn't stay any later than 11:30 pm.
Reid had also calculated JJ's travel time schedule. As soon as JJ had told him that she had to be home by midnight, Reid knew she had to leave by, or before, 11:30 pm. He had kept track of the time as well.
JJ had danced a couple of fast songs earlier in the evening. She limited her partners to the dancin' fools: Morgan, Garcia, and Emily. It just so happened that at 11:15 pm, JJ and Reid were the only ones sitting at their table. Emily had gone to the ladies' room and Morgan was dancing with Garcia. She was glad that Reid had stayed for so long, and still seemed to be enjoying himself, somewhat.
The only thing wrong tonight, was that Reid didn't dance with anyone. He politely, but firmly refused each time Garcia and Emily asked him to dance. Every hour they asked again, wanting to make sure he knew the offer was still open. He continued to gently refuse each offer. A couple of times, Morgan came back to the table with a girl on each arm. He kept offering them to Reid. It didn't matter how attractive the girls were, or how much they flirted with Reid, he gently refused them all. JJ was surprised how much those girls flirted with Reid. Everyone knew the girls weren't put up to it by Morgan, because all evening long women were hitting on Reid. If they didn't approach on their own, then they eyed him from a few tables over. Reid wasn't oblivious to this. He gallantly nodded his head at them, and then focused back on his team members. Reid didn't return any signs of interest.
JJ knew she only had 15 minutes left before she had to leave. She was musing about his allure when he spoke.
"JJ?" Reid looked a little embarrassed, but he maintained eye contact with her.
"Yes, Reid? How are you feeling? I'm leaving in 15 minutes. Do you want a ride?" JJ asked, with that same gentle smile she always gave just to him.
"Would you like to dance … with me … before we leave?"
Well the world can be real tough. Why don't you hold on to me. When there's no one else to love. Keep me in mind.
Midnight
JJ made it home at 11:55 pm. "Ssh! Be sure not to slam the door." She said, as they exited the car. They quietly entered JJ's home. The babysitter said her goodnight's after letting JJ know that all was well with Henry.
"Would you like a cup of coffee?" JJ asked, suddenly she felt very shy.
"Yes. Thanks. I'd love a cup of coffee. Can I help?" Reid asked, as he followed JJ to the kitchen.
Of course, in his nervousness, he was following too closely. Reid stepped on the back of JJ heel, causing her to stumble backwards a little. As she righted herself and turned to look at him in amazement, Reid automatically put his arms out to prevent her from falling.
At the same time, Reid and JJ both gasped and said, "Oh!"
Unintentionally, JJ and Reid ended up face to face, looking into each other's eyes, with his arms wrapped around her. They were both so shocked, that neither one of them made a move to step away from the other. Surprisingly, the following seconds that passed weren't awkward. They felt right. They kept looking into each other's eyes, inhaling each other's breath.
Reid's hands remained where they landed, holding tightly onto her waist. Slowly JJ raised her hands and gently caressed Reid biceps. He closed his eyes … inhaled deeply … stepped forward and enveloped her in his arms, as he nestled his face against her hair. JJ raised her arms to his neck, laid her face upon his chest, and held him tightly, as she melted into his embrace.
They both sighed loudly as they exhaled at the same time. JJ's breasts felt so good against his chest. Reid's cock felt huge as it twitched against her abdomen. Again, time passed before either of them could move an inch or speak a word.
Reid slowly separated their bodies. JJ groaned from the loss of contact.
"JJ … are you sure?" Reid's voice had lowered, full of passion. He looked into her eyes, and waited for her answer.
JJ caressed Reid's face with both hands while looking into his eyes, "I'm more than sure, aren't you?" JJ asked.
Reid closed his eyes and gave JJ a long, sweet kiss. It felt like home. They were breathless when he broke the kiss to say something.
She gave Reid a quick peck on his lips. "Hold that thought." JJ said. She stepped back from him, took his hand, and said, "Come to bed with me, Spence."
