Chapter 7
After drinks, JJ, Jack, Morgan and Emily were playing ball. They were all enjoying themselves, the sun was warm, and there was no case that came up, just a nice hang out with the team. When Jack saw Hotch with cookies he ran up the terrace and took one from the plate.
"Hey Jack, you can't just leave me playing alone, we're supposed to be a team." Morgan yelled.
"Sorry Uncle Derek, but daddy got cookies."
"Cookies!?"
He ran up to the terrace and got one himself, Reid, JJ and Emily followed. They all sat down and drank some more and ate the cookies.
"I wanna play another game." Jack said exited.
"Something that does not involve running around please." Reid said.
"How about truth or dare?" Jack proposed.
"Alright, nothing too exhausting, I'm in." Derek answered.
Everyone joined in; they sat on the terrace as the table was a little too small to fit them all. Hotch started spinning the bottle, it pointed at Reid.
"Truth." He said.
"Did you ever see Lila Archer again?" Hotch asked after a couple of minutes.
"Euhm, actually … I… I did."
"Way to go man." Morgan said and patted him on the back.
Reid spinned the bottled it ended up on JJ, then from her to Rossi, then to Jack, Emily, Penelope, Morgan, Jack and then back to Penelope, she didn't think she would risk anything so she chose:
"Dare."
Jack was surprised that she actually said that, she always said truth. But this got a point for him.
"Ok, …, kiss Uncle Derek."
Garcia's eyes went wide and filled with confusion. She taught she was safe with Jack.
"I… what?"
"Kiss Uncle Derek, … on the lips."
She looked at Jack and then at Derek and back to Jack. She didn't realize that the rest of the team was trying not to laugh, Emily was biting her lip, JJ was pursing her lips together, Reid was suddenly extremely interested in his hands, Rossi was hiding behind his cup of coffee and Hotch had a hard time keeping his poker face.
Derek didn't know how to react, Jack had said the dare with such a serious voice, no playfulness whatsoever. He looked at Garcia; she was completely in shock to what Jack had said. Once it had sunk in she turned to Derek and gave him a quick peck.
"That's not a kiss, that's a peck." Emily said.
"It is a kiss."
"Is not." JJ responded.
"Is too."
"Stop it, come here baby girl, give me a kiss that last a couple of seconds. That'll make them happy."
"Derek. … sigh… fine."
She leaned towards him and kissed him, the moment she felt the heat of his lips mixing with her; she was lost, she couldn't think anymore, she could only feel his lips on hers. On Derek's side it was pretty much the same. It became hard for him to focus on anything else then the felling of her lips on his.
Jack watched them for a while before yelling;
"Hey, breathe."
They separated and both looked flushed, the rest of the team couldn't hold their laughter any longer and started laughing; Garcia blushed a nice dark shade of red.
A/N: so, what do you think? Sorry it took longer than expected to update. I'll try not to take too long if you want more.
