Two months into her pregnancy Morgan decided that it was time for the team to go out and enjoy a night out on the town. No matter how much Emily refused everyone badgered her to go. Even Hotch convinced her. She debated calling Nick but decided against it. It was better with just the team.

They got to the bar and the team found a booth in the back. Morgan took everyone's order and almost fell over when Emily informed him that she'd have water. Everyone looked at her strangely.

"What?" she asked.

"Well, sweet pea, I don't think you've ever ordered water on a night out," Garcia said in disbelief.

"First time for everything I guess," she smiled. Morgan left to get the drinks and Emily tensed a bit when Reid slid next to her.

"It is weird that you're ordering water Emily," he told her with a shy smile.

This comment brought the attention back on her and Emily had to fight the urge to roll her eyes. "Guys, it's water, not the end of the world. I have a busy day tomorrow, I just don't want to be hung-over while doing everything," she lied with ease. Having five pairs of eyes on her was making Emily very uncomfortable. "Guys stop staring at me."

When no one diverted their eyes and Morgan returned Emily snapped. "Am I judging any of you by your choice of poison tonight? NO! So who are you to judge mine?" She yelled then pushed against Hotch's arm so he would move out of her way so she could exit the booth. She grabbed her water off the tray and took a few sips then slammed it down on the table and said goodnight before walking out leaving her team to stare after her in disbelief.

"Okay, what did I miss?" Morgan wondered out loud but no one answered. They were more concerned about the brunette that just left the bar.

Emily got to her condo and slammed the door shut. She hated profilers sometimes. Why did they have to pry? Why were they always looking for reasons to dig into someone else's life? It accomplished nothing!

Emily ripped off her work jacket, threw it on the floor then flopped down on the couch. She was sweating. "Damn hot flashes," she mumbled to herself. She turned on the TV and relaxed as laughter filled the room. A small knock on her door caught her attention. She bit her lip; she really didn't want to deal with anyone tonight. She had enough for one night, but her lights were on and she knew whoever was on the other side of the door wasn't going to leave without talking to her.

"Here we go," she whispered as she pulled the door open.

JJ stood on the other side looking fearful. Of what, Emily wasn't sure. "Hey Em," she said softly. "Can I come in?"

"I was just going to go to bed Jay. Can we talk in the morning?"

"That's fine. I just wanted to see if there was anything going on that you wanted to talk about."

Emily shook her head. "No, I'm fine."

"Are you positive because I've never seen you act like that before?" JJ told her.

Emily threw her hands up in frustration. "I wanted water JJ. I didn't think it was that big of a deal but everyone made it one. Sorry I didn't feel like drinking! Is that such a crime?" she screamed.

JJ shook her head quickly back and forth. "No, Emily not at all. We didn't want you to feel that way and I'm sorry that we did. I can guarantee to you that it was not our intention. Next time if you want water you can have water and no one will say anything. I promise. I just don't want you to be mad at us. At me."

Emily's head dropped down to her chest. "I'm not mad at you guys. I just don't like being questioned about everything I do. I don't do it to you guys and I don't appreciate when you all do it to me."

JJ nodded. "I understand and I'm sorry. It won't happen again."

"Thanks," Emily said. "I'm going to go to bed now. I'm beat. I'll see you tomorrow. Goodnight," the brunette tried to shut the door but JJ stopped it with her foot.

"Wait," she pleaded.

Emily halted her actions. "You know you can talk to me about anything right? That no matter what's going on I got your back."

Emily felt her bottom lip quiver slightly. She was not going to cry in front of JJ, she refused. "I know and I appreciate it but nothings going on. I promise."

JJ smiled at her words. "Good! I love you Em," she told her as she stepped over the threshold and hugged her tightly.

Emily felt her defenses drop and she knew she had to get the blonde out of her place. "I love you too JJ, but I'm tired. I'll see you tomorrow."

"Night," JJ said with another smile as Emily closed the door. The blonde put her hand against Emily's door and wondered if her friend was actually telling her the truth. But then again she's never lied to her before and she doubted she had a reason to now. With that thought she walked away to go home to Will and Henry.
