A/N: Hey! So this chapter kind of touches on two subjects that happened on SWAT, but I'm playing with the timeline a bit. First, the kiss between Street and Chris DID happen, but for the sake of this story, we're going to say it happened before Street got back on SWAT. Second, the same thing goes for Molly. Her and Street did date, but it wasn't for as long as on the show. If there are some other things, which there most likely will be, that are changed in the story from the shows, I will let you know as it plays out. Thank you!

JJ grabbed her coffee and settled in at the back of the jet. The BAU had just taken off for Alabama. She had debriefed them in the office and apologized for cutting their night short. Most of them were getting some sleep now, as they had about four hours and had already started a profile.

JJ used that quiet time to ponder the last twenty-four hours. That morning, she had looked at three apartment complexes. The first two were okay, but not somewhere she could envision herself. The third was pretty great. It was close to work, in a quiet neighborhood, and the apartment was spacious. After looking at it, she was pretty sure that's where she wanted to live, but the landlord told her she could think it over and let him know Monday. Now, seeing as how they were probably going to be out of town, she was wishing she had already confirmed.

On top of looking for a new home, JJ was dodging calls and angry texts from Will. She hadn't spoken to him since he had received the divorce papers, and she wasn't looking forward to that conversation. Her plan was to get everything squared away with the apartment, so that she could start moving out. Then she would handle Will.

JJ's thoughts then turned to Street. She'd had the best time with him tonight, and definitely wanted to do it again. Between juggling the stresses of work, and the divorce, she hadn't really been able to just focus on being happy, or enjoying life. With Street, she was able to do that.

She hadn't meant to tell him about the miscarriage, but when she did, she was touched by the care shown in his eyes. Street opened up to her about something personal too, and it was nice to have a deep, meaningful conversation with someone.

The agent hoped they would be able to wrap this case up soon, as she was looking forward to seeing Street again.

Street parked his bike in the lot at HQ, with three minutes to spare. Chris was waiting for him outside the motor pool with two coffees in her hands. "Morning, Chris."

"Hey." She handed him one of the coffees, and in that moment, Street was grateful that their friendship was back to normal.

"Thank you." He immediately took a drink as they started into HQ.

"So… Luca told me you had a date the other night."

"Yeah, I did."

"At first I thought maybe it was with Molly."

Street frowned. "Why would you have thought that?"

"Didn't you two go out for a while?" Chris stopped them in the hall before they made it to the Eagle's Nest.

"Just a couple of dates. Molly started thinking it was a little more serious than what it was."

"You're not looking to get serious?"

Street shrugged, not really knowing how to answer. "I don't know about that. I just couldn't see myself getting serious with her.

Smirking, Chris replied, "Probably not a good idea to get involved with the boss's daughter anyway. So, what do you think about JJ?"

Thinking about the blonde, Street couldn't help but smile. "She's amazing. It's so easy to get along with her. As cliché as it sounds, we just clicked."

Chris shook her head, and chuckled. "It helps that she's really hot too, huh? I mean, I saw the look on your face when Hondo introduced you two. It's like all of your brain cells stopped functioning."

"Hey," Street gave a disbelieving look, "I wasn't that bad."

"Whatever you say. When are you going to see her again?"

"I don't know. She's on a case right now."

"You better get used to that, Street. She's out of town a lot."

"It'll be fine."

JJ breathed a sigh of relief as she and the team stepped off of the BAU elevators. It was Tuesday afternoon, and hey had just got back to the office after closing their case in Alabama.

After they identified the suspect, the takedown went about as smooth as JJ could have hoped for, but she knew everyone was ready to get home to their own beds.

As they reached the bullpen, JJ turned around to address the team. "Okay, get your report finished and go home. Good work, get some rest." She smiled as they all bid her goodnight, then made her way to Hotch's office. Seeing that his door was open, JJ softly knocked before stepping inside. "Hey."

Hotch looked up from behind his desk. "Hey, JJ. Good job out there. I already received a call from the Baldwin County sheriff, he is very appreciative."

"He had a good team to work with."

Hotch gestured for JJ to take a seat. "How are you? I know it's been pretty non-stop since the promotion, but I want you to know you're doing an excellent job."

JJ gave a small smile. "Thank you, Hotch. I'm doing good. I think I'm finding a nice groove."

"How are you dealing with the divorce?"

She scoffed, "Well, besides questioning the last nine years of my life, I'm dealing with things pretty well. You know, Hotch, the other night, I was thinking back on if I'd ever been truly happy since we got married. I was even hesitant going into the marriage, but I tamped down those anxieties thinking things would get better." Meeting Hotch's eyes, all she saw was sympathy.

"JJ, you deserve to be happy. If there's anything you ever need from me or the team, don't hesitate to ask. If you want me to approve some time off so you can clear your head, get things straightened out, or even take a vacation, I will be glad to."

"I appreciate that, Hotch, but I couldn't ask you to do that… not with the promotion only being six months ago."

"It wouldn't be a problem. If you decide that's something you want or need, just let me know. Have you found an apartment yet?"

"Yeah, I have.. And I spoke to the landlord yesterday. After I leave here this evening, I'm going to sign the paperwork. I can start moving in Monday."

"Great, as I said before, we'll be glad to help with that." He gave a small, rare smile.

"Thank you. I don't know what I'd do without this team."

JJ sat down on her couch after getting home from the apartment. She had went by and filled out the paperwork, then texted Will saying she would be out by the end of next week. He had replied, saying that they could still work this out and they needed to talk, but she simply said 'There's nothing more to be said.'

After ending that discussion before it could even get started, JJ pulled up Street's number. She quickly typed out a message and hit send. 'Hey. Just wanted to tell you again what a great time I had with you Saturday.'

It didn't take two minutes for him to respond. 'I had a great time with you too. Are you still in Alabama?'

'No, just got back a few hours ago.'

'Great. How'd it go?'

'Not bad. We closed the case. How is it on your end?'

'Pretty good. Would you like to go to lunch with me tomorrow?'

JJ smiled to herself, already eager to see the handsome officer. 'I would love that.'

'Can I pick you up from the BAU?'

'Yeah, that's fine. I get a break at twelve, is that okay?'

'Perfect. I'll see you then.'

'Have a good night, Jim.'

'You too, JJ.'

Arriving at the entrance to the FBI, Street was prepared to flash his badge. He was stopped by two armed security guards, but they let him go through to the desk, even though the metal detector went off, once they saw he was SWAT.

There was another guard at the desk who gave a polite smile. "How can I help you, Officer?"

"I'm here for Agent Jareau."

"Is she expecting you?"

"Yes."

"Could I see some ID please?"

Street pulled out his license, and handed it to the guard.

The guard entered something in the computer before making a phone call. "Agent Jareau? Officer Street is here to see you… Yes ma'am." He hung up the phone and turned to Street. "She's finishing up with something, but you can go on up." He handed Street a visitor's pass and led him to an elevator. "It's the sixth floor. Just go straight through the glass doors."

Street smiled. "Thank you." He took the elevator up to JJ's unit, anxious to see the blonde. He immediately saw the double doors, and recognized the agents on the other side.

Derek looked up from his desk when the doors opened. "Hey, Street."

"Hey, man, how's it going?" He gave a small wave to the rest of the team.

"Good, good. What can we do for you?"

"I'm looking for JJ." He didn't miss the shared smirk between Derek and Alvez.

"She's in her office, but you might want to hang back a minute."

Just then, a door on the balcony, overlooking the bullpen, flew open. All eyes swung that way when a man, that Street didn't recognize, stepped out. Before the man descended the stairs, he spun back around. "Fine! I'll sign the damn papers, but you're making a big mistake."

Street saw JJ appear in the doorway, and he instantly knew that man was her soon-to-be ex.

JJ's voice was calm, but her eyes danced in anger. "I made the mistake years ago."

"Are you implying that marrying me was a mistake? I gave up my job, my hometown for you! You wouldn't ever do that for me!"

JJ gritted her teeth. "I never asked you to do that, Will. You're the one that demanded that on me. I would've never asked you to give up something you love like that."

"Yeah, well I can't even believe I did that for you. Obviously that was the mistake. You never appreciated anything I did for you."

"You should no better than to do this while I'm at work, but of course you have to have an audience for your big show. Get out of here, Will." JJ leveled a harsh glare at the man, and it wasn't long before he was storming down the stairs and out of the unit before anything else could be said.

Street knew this was none of his business, but he wanted to go beat the hell out of the man for talking to JJ like he did, but then again, JJ looked mad enough to do that herself.

"Street, hey. Do you want to come in my office for a minute, then we can go?" She gave him a smile.

"Uh, yeah." He quickly made his way up to where she was standing. "Hey, you okay?"

"Oh yeah, I'm fine. I'm sorry you had to see that." She motioned for him to follow her through the door.

"Don't apologize. I'm just sorry you're having to go through this."

"Well, maybe now he'll sign the papers and this will be over soon." She sat down behind her desk. "Let me just send off this email real quick, and we can leave, if that's okay."

"Yeah, that's fine." He sat down, and surveyed JJ's office. It was a pretty good size space, a small couch over in the far corner beside a window. She had her college diplomas on the back wall, some pictures of her with the team, and a dying plant beside a filing cabinet.

JJ finished on the computer and stood back up. "Okay, that's taken care of. How has your day gone so far?"

"Not bad. It's mainly just been a gym day for our team. We're on call to assist 50 squad today." He leaned down and kissed her on the cheek. "It's good to see you."

JJ smiled. "It's good to see you too." They stepped out of her office and she turned to face the team. "You guys can take your lunch break whenever. If you finish your consults before I get back, just lay them on my desk." With that, the two made their way to the elevator.

As soon as the doors closed, JJ and Street looked at each other, and it wasn't but a second before their lips were connected in a hot kiss. Street's hands roamed her body, as hers fisted his shirt. The both moaned, getting lost in each other's touch, but quickly had to separate when the elevator arrived at the parking garage.

Street smirked as JJ blushed. "So, I guess I should ask where you want to go eat."

"Um, it doesn't matter. Where would you like to go?" JJ was still a little breathless and she returned his smirk when she looked up at him.

"Do you like Chinese food?"

"I love it."

"Okay, well I've never been, but I've heard some really good things about the Chinese restaurant two blocks from here. Is that okay?

"Yeah, that sounds great. That place has delicious food."

"Okay. Would you like to take my bike?"

JJ's eyes lit up. "Hell yeah."

Street grinned at JJ's enthusiasm and led her over to his bike. He handed her the spare helmet, and put his on. JJ got on behind him and wrapped her arms around his waist. His grin only grew at the feeling. "You ready?"

"Let's do it."

"Oh my gosh, this sushi is amazing!"

Street shook his head and chuckled. "How can you even eat that stuff?"

JJ laughed. "I love it. I take it you don't?"

"I've never actually had it, but the urge to try it has never really hit me."

"You're welcome to try some of this." She motioned to her plate with her chopsticks.

Street pulled a face. "Maybe next time. I think I'll stick with my orange chicken." They both grinned at each other. "So, did you get things straightened out with the apartment?"

"Yeah, I get to start moving in at the beginning of the week."

"Oh that's great."

"I'm pretty excited. I'm going to start packing this weekend."

"Would you like some help?"

"I would love some… if you don't mind, that is."

"Of course not. Why don't I come over Saturday, I'll help you with the packing. Then I'll order us dinner."

"That would be nice, Street."
