Episode: Persuasion (season 9, episode 14)
Persuasion:
JJ stared at her husband's back from her position in their bed. Why was he sitting at his desk, instead of by her side, was what she wanted to know. She threw his back a pointed pout, telepathically sending him a message of her disdain.
Apparently, he had an eight page report to hand in tomorrow on the team's latest case. A case JJ hadn't been present at due to her currently being on maternity leave. At the moment the fact that he was working on a case at all frustrated her all the more, since she was eager to get back to work.
A sudden thought struck her, a way to kill two birds with one stone…
A mischievous look overtook her face; the fact that he couldn't see it was all the better. Now she had the element of surprise. She held all the cards at the moment.
Making her decision, JJ crawled across the bed, unbeknownst to Hotch. She climbed over the edge and padded across the carpet closing the distance between her and the object of her desire. She stood behind him, ready to pounce.
"JJ, honey, what are you doing?" Hotch questioned her, not bothering to turn around.
She was momentarily surprised, thinking that she'd been super stealthy. But apparently there wasn't much you could get past super FBI agent Aaron Hotchner… well, she'd see about that.
JJ grinned. "Nothing, Aaron, just ignore me…"
She didn't know whether to be pleased or annoyed when his fingers went right back on tapping at his laptop keyboard.
She placed her hands on either of his shoulders and started to knead his tight muscles. Getting him to relax first would be key.
"JJ…" he warned.
"Shh…" she urged. "I'm not here, just keep working.
She continued to move her hands along his shoulders feeling his tense muscles, working them until they became soft, pliable… She mentally chided him for still being in his shirt and tie so late at night. She reached around him and loosened his tie and then unbuttoned the first couple of buttons. Her fingers tickled at the skin she exposed there.
JJ had the extreme satisfaction of knowing Hotch wasn't fully concentrating on his report anymore when she heard his breath hitch and the tapping at his keyboard cease.
Time to step it up a notch… she thought, gleefully.
She leaned forward, letting her body press against his back, and placed a kiss at the crook of his neck. Her lips trailed a line of fire up, along the side of his neck and back down again. She let her tongue snake out a bit, to soothe the heated skin, only to nip at his pulse point a second later.
Hotch wasn't typing away at his computer at all, anymore.
"Aaron," she murmured, between her kisses.
"Hmm…" he said absentmindedly.
"Are you finished with your report?" she asked.
She didn't give him time to answer because she leaned around him to give the corner of his lips a teasing kiss. When she pulled away from him she had the pleasure of hearing him groan in frustration.
He whirled around in his chair to her delight and growled out, "The report can wait!"
And the next thing she knew he was practically dragging her to their bed. And she was grinning in triumph.
JJ was sitting at her desk the next morning, ecstatic beyond words. She loved being a mom to Jack, Henry, and Kate, but she also loved her job. A lot. And she'd been away from it for far too long.
Sorting through the mounds of files on her desk she wasn't surprised when her door burst open dramatically. She stared up at her irate looking husband, trying, but failing miserably, to mask her amusement.
"I thought they were joking," he exclaimed.
"Nope," she said simply, knowing her lack of elaboration would only further annoy him.
He gritted his teeth. "I know you wanted to come back to work, but shouldn't we have discussed it together when that would happen?"
She smirked. "Oh, we did…"
He looked confused now. "We did?"
"Yep, last night," she replied, hard pressed not to laugh out loud.
"Last night?" he questioned, trying to remember.
When realization dawned on his face, she knew he was now remembering vividly their night time activities.
She nodded. "I asked you if I could come back to work tomorrow and if I recall correctly your reply was," she paused for dramatic effect. "'Yes, oh yes!'"
His face flushed with the memory. When he turned around and slammed the door behind him, she burst into a fit of giggles.
Man, she thought, merrily. I'm probably going to pay for that…
Well, at least she'd taught her husband a valuable lesson, one she knew he probably would forget the next time she tried it: the art of persuasion came in many forms…
Hope you enjoyed!
