Jubal and Maggie had gone out for an early dinner with Jubal's sister Jennifer, they had been planning on it for a while now. They were thankful that they had gotten finished up at the office early today so that they were all able to make the dinner. Jennifer's husband and son were out of town for a sporting event so she was glad to meet up for dinner. They were sitting back just enjoying some coffee after dinner as none of them were in a rush to leave. Jenny sat her cup down looking at Maggie and Jubal who were sitting opposite her, Jubal had his arm resting on the back of Maggie's chair.

"So how is it living with my brother you ready to kick him out yet?" Jenny raised her eyebrow joking playfully.

Maggie laughed hearing the question and seeing the face that Jubal pulled "Not ready to kick him just yet" she smirked looking at Jubal.

"Hey, you make that sound like you haven't been enjoying it." Jubal nudged her shoulder gently. They had been living together a few weeks now and the truth was that they were both loving it, it was still new to them but at the same time it felt like they had been living together months rather than weeks.

"I think your ex wife makes it hard for Mag's not to want to kick you out" Jenny looked at her brother as she spoke, her and Maggie had really grown close over the last few months, that was why she was now calling her Mags and not Maggie.

"Ah so Mags has been filling you in on that?" Jubal looked at Jenny before at Maggie.

"I didn't tell her anything that would be too much, your sister just has a way of getting me to talk. It's something you Valentines are apparently very good at." Maggie looked at Jubal as she spoke.

Jubal smiled softly as he leaned in kissing Maggie "I'm not mad that you talked to Jenny about Samantha acting like a teenager. I'm honestly glad that you had her to talk to".

Jubal hadn't called Samantha Sam since her latest behaviour which was really over the line. Jubal had brought the kids home after a stay with him and Maggie and Samantha had invited him to stay to put the kids to bed, before Jubal left Samantha had tried to kiss him. Not wanting to keep secrets from Maggie he had come straight home and told her. It had only happened last weekend so it was still a tense subject for Jubal.

Jenny reached over laying her hand on her brothers arm "I'm not sure you'll be glad to hear that Mags talked to me about it when you know what my reaction was."

Jubal raised his eyebrow looking at his sister and then Maggie "What happened? I mean you seemed better after talking to Jen".

Maggie shook her head laughing "Jen stop winding him up…" she lay against Jubal gently, laying her hand on his thigh just above his knee.

"As his big sister I think you'll find that it is my job to wind him up." Jenny smirked playfully, she really did love getting to wind her brother up, maybe a little too much.

"Is this where you are going to tell me that you told Mags to run as far away from me as fast as she could? Because if so I already told her I would understand if that was her reaction." Jubal had moved his arm from the back of the chair to rest his hand on Maggie's shoulder, letting his fingers run along her arm slowly.

Maggie could see that Jubal was still struggling with the incident with Sam, had she been upset and angry when he told her? Yes!. But she respected that he came straight home and told her what happened, he hadn't tried hiding it from her. Jen saw that her brother was getting lost in his own thoughts so she decided to tell him the truth.

"I told Mags that if she ended up murdering your ex wife that I would happily be her lawyer". Jen couldn't help the laugh that escaped when she saw Jubal's reaction "What? It's not like I like your ex and I'm sure that I could find a way to get Mags free of the charges. If it helps she wasn't keen on the idea."

"Should I be worried that you have just admitted that you tried to tell my girlfriend that it was okay to murder my ex wife?" Jubal had started to relax again when he heard the humour in his sisters voice.

"No, like I said Mags was not interested in the idea at all and if it helps she also has no intention of leaving you because of what happened." Jen had a genuine smile on her face as she said the last part.

Maggie smiled watching Jubal when he heard his sister, he turned his head looking at Maggie "You sure that no part of you is finding all of this too much?".

Maggie shook her head as she leaned up kissing Jubal softly "It's going to take a lot more than your ex wife being jealous to scare me away from you Jubal."

Jubal smiled as he kissed Maggie back softly and he lifted his free hand caressing her cheek gently, he placed small kisses against her lips whispering "I love you baby."

Maggie smiled hearing Jubal's words but before she could speak Jen was jumping in "Now is when I remind you sweet baby brother that if you screw this up I am on Mags side" Jen smiled so sweetly at Jubal which just had Maggie laughing.

Jubal didn't get the chance to respond as his phone rang and he sighed seeing Isobel's number coming up as he knew this meant they had a case "Hey Isobel, what we got?"

"A car bomb went off in Queens, I need Maggie to go there and meet up with OA, Stuart and Tiffany and I need you in here."

"Okay I will be there in less than fifteen minutes." Jubal hung up from Isobel and looked at Maggie "You are needed at a crime scene, car bomb, the other's are going to meet you there." Jubal had drove both him and Maggie to meet his sister for dinner, and this was where it was going to be a slight problem.

"Well I have everything I need in your SUV, so you are going to have to drop me close to the scene and then I can catch a ride back with OA." Maggie was thankful that they had gone for somewhere casual to eat as it meant she was in her jeans and boots, she did have one of her more dressy tops on that she didn't wear to work but her Jacket would hide that and Jubal did have one of his nicer shirts on but she didn't think anyone other than Kristen would notice.

Jen knew that they still hadn't told the team about them dating and living together, only Isobel and Ian knew and she completely understood why they didn't want to tell the others yet.

"Why don't you let me take you to the crime scene Maggie? If any of your team happen to see me they have no idea who I am."

Maggie looked at Jen surprised by her offer "Jen I couldn't ask you to do that, I'm sure you would rather just go home."

"Mags I wouldn't have offered if I didn't mean it, it makes more sense, means Jubal can head straight in to the JOC and I can take you to your partner."

Jubal smiled at his sister he really did love how close her and Maggie had gotten over the last few months, he knew that she was genuine when she made the offer. "Let's head out to my car you can grab what you need and then you can get going."

Maggie knew that there was no point trying to argue anymore, she knew that Jen was genuine in her offer and that it also really did make the most sense as Jubal was needed in to the JOC as soon as possible. Jubal stood up and paid for their dinner ignoring the protests against it from his sister, they stepped outside and went to Jubal's SUV.

Maggie opened the back of it and slid on her FBI Jacket and beanie hat as her hair was down, she opened the locked box and took out her gun and badge, sliding both on to her waist where they belonged before zipping up her jacket. She turned to face Jubal who was standing watching her.

"I'll be careful and I will keep you updated with what is happening at the scene, and yes I'll make sure that it's me making the contact and not OA." Maggie couldn't help but smirk playfully as she looked at Jubal and she could hear Jen chuckling softly.

"Hey I am not going to apologise for wanting to make sure that you are safe, and we both know I rest a little better at the JOC if it's you making the contact and not OA." Jubal gently pulled Maggie close to him, resting his hands on her lower back, he knew that his sister had gotten used to him being affectionate with Maggie in front of her. Jen stepped to the side though to give them a moment as Jubal leaned in kissing Maggie softly but with so much "I love you baby."

Maggie wrapped her arms around Jubal's neck as she kissed him back with just as much love, she was still surprised at times with how openly affectionate he was, but with them about to take on a case she understood it. She lifted her hand to his cheek gently "I love you too babe… I'll see you soon."

Maggie stepped back from Jubal and walked over to Jen to follow to her car, they both turned back and waved at Jubal before disappearing around the corner. Maggie and Jenny chatted as they drove to the address that Isobel had text her. The closest that Jen could get was around the corner from the crime scene so she pulled in to the side to let Maggie out of the car.

Maggie smiled looking at Jen "Thank you so much for dropping me off and I'm sorry that we had to cut our night short."

"No need to apologise I know it is out of your control, it was nice to get some time with you and my brother. Be safe, and yes I am going to need to know that you both are okay at the end of this case."

Maggie told Jenny that she would let her know that she was safe, she was a little emotional realising just how much Jen clearly cared about her. When Maggie had walked around the corner to head towards OA and the others Jen took out her phone and text Jubal.

'Just dropped Mags off, reminded her to be safe. It was good to see you both tonight, make sure you both make it through this case safely.'
