"JJ you can't ignore him forever." Garcia sighed as JJ bit down on her lower lip and shrugged,

"I can try." She muttered, rolling her eyes and looking down at the drink she held in her hands.

"He's been back for a month already and you haven't even spoken to him – Hotch is getting annoyed because it's effecting work." JJ shrugged again and frowned,

"He embarrassed me." She whispered,

"He was on drugs, he is back to the old Spence that you have always loved, please, I am not saying that you have to love him again but please just talk to him." JJ shook her head and sighed,

"Well sometimes life is tough JJ..." Emily shook her head and got up from the table that the three women were sitting around, JJ looked around the restaurant and then back at her two best friends, wrinkling her nose as she tried to figure out what Emily had meant.

"I am sorry baby girl but we had to do this." Garcia whispered before getting up as well,

"What?" JJ looked at them both, confused until she saw the one man she had tried her best to avoid over the past month. She shook her head and groaned,

"I am going." Garcia put her hand on her shoulder and forced her to sit down in the seat, frowning at the woman she considered to be like family to her,

"You're not going anywhere, you're going to stay here and talk to him and then you're going to come into work with a smile on your face and it's not going to be because of Morgan." JJ sighed and then looked down at the table, she heard Reid thank the two women before they walked off, she hated them for doing this, it had nothing to do with them.

"I am sorry for tricking you." He muttered as he sat down,

"I pre-ordered your favourite, is that okay?" She nodded, trying her best to not look at him, staring out of the window, longing her phone to go off with a new case.

"Please speak to me Jenny," She glared at him and he sighed,

"Please.. I miss you so much. I went to rehab the day after you told me that you loved me-" She put up her hand and shook her head,

"Forget that ever happened, I didn't know what I was saying, there is no need to rub in my own embarrassment is there Doctor Reid?" He bit down on his lip and sighed,

"I didn't mean it like that, I never wanted you to leave. I love you too, I always have loved you and I think I always will. I said it so you wouldn't get hurt because I was waiting for the day when you would come and find me dead..." He shook his head and looked into her eyes, glad to finally have her undivided attention,

"I went into rehab because I knew it was the only way I was going to be be able to ever be with you. I love you so much and it's never going to happen again, I am so sorry that I hit you and I was going to..." He trailed off,

"Don't say it." JJ muttered, her lips turning a light shade of pink as she looked down at her hands,

"I am sorry for everything I have put you through and I would understand if you never want to be with me like that but can we at least be friends?"

"Reid..."

"I love you more than life itself and I wish I had realized that before. When you left that day I had no idea what to do with myself other than win you back. I didn't want to hurt you but I thought it was for the best." She nodded,

"I understand." She finally smiled at him, hesitating before reaching out for his hand, he smiled and took her hand in his,

"I love you Jennifer Jareau."

"I love you too Spence." She whispered before he leaned over the table to kiss her gently on the lips. Finally, everything was looking up.

A/N: So they are finally together, is it going to be happily ever after or will there be some tragedy coming their way very soon? ;)
