Hours later the 6 pairs found themselves at London City Airport, London, time difference nearly putting them 7 hours ahead of what they were when they left. Starting in London was more of their families idea's than their own but they were more than up for starting in a place that was always said to thrive life. So far there was no disappointment.

'Right to the hotel?' Aaron asked.

'Let's go.' They all said in unison, the pairs had all chose to share a suitcase, less luggage for so many places, made it easier to travel. They planned to spend a couple of days in London, exploring and discovering and then head to Dover to travel across to France, where they would continue into Spain.

'Hotels got 3 in one room, 3 in another.'

'So girls and boys?'

'Exactly.' Everyone nodded, exchanging looks at one another. They separated into their rooms; the boys took the suitcases, so they girls just fell on the bed completely exhausted.

'So....'

'So what?'

'Well... spill.' Emily said rolling onto her stomach to look at Penelope and JJ.

'How about you?' Emily blushed slightly. 'Ha knew it.'

'Knew what?'

'Nothing....'Penelope said angelically.

'Pen!' Emily said loudly. 'What?'

'Next level.'

'Yes.'

'Well that was easy...'

'You?'

'Yes.'

'Weren't you at his mom's?'

'We found time.... JJ?'

'Yes.'

'Whoa... we are lucky then.' Emily said rolling on her back laughing, they all just laid there staring at the ceiling, soon tiredness gathered so they took their shoes off and climbed into the big bed.

The next thing they know there is male whispering, all women hear but make out like they are still sound asleep, JJ's head on Penelope's shoulder, Emily facing towards Penelope and JJ.

'Can you keep the noise down we are trying to sleep.' Penelope said with her ultimate smile growing more with each word, all men laugh.

'Come on baby girl, we are going out, so you and those two need to wake up.'

'Those two?' Emily said sleepily. 'Should we be insulted JJ?'

'I am.'

'Aw you know I love you really.' Derek said jokingly. 'But seriously, you've been asleep for 3 hours.'

'Wow really?'

'Come on then girlies; let's get this wild party started.' Penelope said sitting up. All women got off the bed and disappeared, reappearing looking flawless again, not a hair out of place, somehow no wrinkle on their clothes. 'Well?'

'Come on then...' The three men said as they got over the shock at how immaculate they looked after getting out of bed.

The days were spent exploring, gallivanting and painting the town red by night. Each set of three departing at night to be reunited by morning to go for breakfast. On their last day, they all went off in their couplets, they had three hours before they had to get to the airport so thought some alone time was in order.

--------------------------------------------------------

'You enjoying yourself baby girl?'

'I am... I really am. How about you handsome?'

'Yeah... but I have wanted to have you in my bed.'

'Oh behave!' She teased. 'Well in France we have 3 rooms, so if you want me you've got me.' He then stopped and pulled her close, kissing her passionately. 'I'm going to take that as your answer.'

He chuckled. 'I'm happy to see you so relaxed, you know that right?'

'Relaxed?'

'Yeah... like you have no worries.'

'Well I've had time to reflect, on a lot of things.'

'Like?'

'Like the trial coming up.'

'What about it?'

'I want to go, I think I need to, for peace of mind.'

'Want me to come with you?'

'Would you?' Penelope asked looking up hopefully.

'If you want me there P, I'll be there.' She gave him an appreciative smile that told him everything that she couldn't at that moment, he pulled her into an embrace and then took her by the hand. 'Let's do some final exploring baby girl.'

--------------------------------------------------------

'Okay Em... final day, what do you want to do?'

'Well I was thinking... an hour here alone.' She winked. 'And then we explore... until the very last moment?'

Aaron matched her smile and approached the bed that he had in the hotel room. 'An hours exploring inside then we are off out.'

'Okay Aaron Hotchner...' Emily said with led into a fully fled giggle. 'Only one hour.'

--------------------------------------------------------

JJ and Spencer were just locking their door when they heard Emily giggle loudly, they couldn't help but suppress laughter. 'No guessing with what they're up to.' Spencer quipped, which made JJ's stifled laughter come fully out.

'It's a little last minute English fun for them.'

'Well they can have theirs... now let's have ours.' He answered taking her hand and leading her down the hallway towards the stairs. 'Where to first?'

'I really liked Marble Arch.'

'Well then Marble Arch it is.... like a true tourist.'

She giggled slightly. 'Then some real English tea?'

'Anything you want JJ.'

'Okay, then I want hugs.'

'Hugs are deliverable whenever.'

'Well that's a good thing to know.' She said with a smile as they headed off out for their own enjoyment.

--------------------------------------------------------

Three hours later found all 3 men waiting in the lobby of the hotel, they were laughing about the earlier antics feeling lucky. While the girls were double checking they had everything for the shuttle to France they gossiped over prior events between their couplets.

'I can actually admit this but life is great.'

'Aw Pen..'

'No... I'm serious, since my parents died I didn't feel in place but I meant you 5 and Derek's been amazing and I feel in place.'

'BBF's' JJ joked, the men had called them that because if the girls weren't in the group or with their respective other then they would sure enough be off doing things with the other girls.

'Exactly.' Penelope said and then realised Emily was moving in for a hug.

'I think therapy was the best choice of our lives.'

'I would have to agree with that.'

'I second that notion!' JJ said. 'But we really should get going.'

They walked down laughing, talking and were so involved they didn't realise the 2 males of the group staring at them, they were lost in their own complete little conversation filled world that they had no idea of attention they had drawn. When all three women stopped and looked at them, they then realised it, each of them laughed.

'Took your time.'

'Now we aren't the ones holding us back right now are we?' Penelope pointed jokingly.

'Fair enough.'

'Enough with the chitter chatter!' Emily said.

'France awaits us!'
