So, not so much Penelope and Derek… more JJ/Rossi. Weird, I know, but I hope you like it!
Penelope laughed as Derek Morgan wrapped his long fingers around hers, making their hands dance giddily together. This was the start of the second week in a row they had woken up in each other's arms, and she loved every second of it. Even though they were around a team of expert profilers all day every day, it was easy enough to hide their relationship. They had acted enough like a couple before. They were sure the team had no idea.
Rossi looked up as JJ walked into his office.
"Derek's not answering his cell." She said simply.
"I wouldn't worry about it. Let the happy couple sleep in for a bit. They'll have enough to deal with the next time we get called out on a case. Our tough, tough unit chief and crazy tech girl have reached a new stage, and I am completely willing to let them enjoy it on their own." Rossi said, concern not even breathing on his features. JJ smiled and sat down in the chair across from him, the desk in between them.
"I just can't believe it! They're so great together; I can't believe how long it took them to realize it. How long it took us to realize it." She said. Rossi smiled at the blond across from him. He took a deep internal breath and said,
"Maybe they aren't the only ones with something to realize."
JJ looked up at that, something nervous playing on her pretty features. She smiled at her colleague and got up. "I have to go. Reid wanted to talk to me about something." She said as she walked out.
Rossi swore at himself in Italian, knowing he had crossed a line to dangerous territory that had been closed off since Will had left her. But he couldn't help it. He had it bad for the girl.
JJ cursed herself for being so nervous. He had to be talking about Hotch and Emily. Still, a girl could hope. And hope she did. Rossi was… too much to bet on. So she kept her feelings to herself; a trick she wasn't the only one doing, she would soon find out.
