The weekend ended before she knew it and now she's back in school. But she sure wish that she could just stay at home. Apparently Will's date went well and now they're seeing each other…and since Will is kind of the hot guy in school, obviously everyone is talking about it. Just when she thought it couldn't get any worse, she saw her best friend locking lips with his new girlfriend at the corner near his locker.

She can't believe she's saying this but… she's jealous. Jennifer Jareau is jealous. She should be happy for Will but instead she's jealous. Over the weekend, she concluded that she does have feelings for Will, feelings that 'just friends' shouldn't have for one another, and she doesn't know what to do about it. It's kind of too late now to confess to him, remembering the scene she saw 2 minutes ago. I guess I'll just keep my mouth shut and I'm sure these feelings will go away, just like it did 3 years ago.

The truth is, deep down JJ didn't really believe that to be the truth. JJ thought deep down she always had feelings for her best friend, she just didn't realised it. They knew each other since kindergarten, he was there for her during the worst time of her life. He was the one constant in her life when everything else kept changing. But now she doesn't know what to do. He has a girlfriend now and she's pretty sure that Will wants to spend more time with her. She just hopes that their friendship won't change.

For the next week, JJ avoided Will like he was a plague. Every time she sees him going towards one direction, she would go the opposite direction. She even asked her mom to send her to school and pick her up instead and told Will that her mom just wanted some extra bonding time. She thought Will bought her excuse, she was wrong.

It was Friday night. Will realised that JJ hasn't been JJ for the past week. He knew she was avoiding him, ignoring his calls, but he didn't know why. So he's going to find out, tonight. He quickly ate his dinner and told his parents that he was going out for a bit. His parents didn't question him that much. He got into his pickup truck, started the engine and drove to JJ's house. He parked at the corner so that Sandy wouldn't notice his pickup outside her house. He walked to the back of the house where JJ's room is located at the second floor. He must've done this a thousand times now since he'd known her. He climbed the big tree beside her room and opened the window of JJ's room. She wasn't in her room so Will figured she must be downstairs with her mom. He knew that she would usually be up soon so he just waited for her.

JJ finished her dinner and helped her mom cleaned up the dishes before heading back up to her room. She pushed open her room door and was shocked to see Will sitting on her bed with his hands covering his face. "Will! What are you doing here in my room?" JJ asked anxiously. This is the last place she wants to be alone with him right now.

Will lifted his head up and looked straight into JJ's eyes, "We need to talk JJ." JJ couldn't meet his eyes for too long before looking away. "Okay, so what do you want to talk about?" JJ asked playing dumb. "You know what this is about JJ. I know you've been avoiding me for the past week and I can't figure out why. Is it because of Lucy? Did she said anything to you?" Will asked. JJ immediately turned to look at him before saying, "No, not she didn't say anything. Don't blame her." "Then who should I blame? Because I've been trying to think of anything that I might've said to upset you but I came up nothing." Will said pleadingly. He misses his best friend but she doesn't seem to feel the same way. JJ looked at Will and sighed. She felt guilty for avoiding him all week but she didn't know what else to do. "I'm sorry Will. It's just, we've never had relationships before and now that you do, I didn't want to mess it up for you. You know how everyone keeps saying that we're a couple because we're always together and all. Well I didn't want your girlfriend to be jealous or anything, and I also didn't want to make it awkward so I thought it was just better for me to stay away." JJ said, telling the truth. Well technically it's only part of the truth, but Will didn't need to know that.

Will stared at JJ, "That must've been one of the most stupid thing I've ever heard. JJ, you're my best friend in the whole wide world, we've known each other for 11 years now, we literally grew up together. Everyone knows that. Me having a girlfriend isn't going to change that. You'll always be special to me JJ. Don't ever forget that. If anyone has a problem with that, then they'll have to deal with me." Will said seriously.

JJ just looked at the floor, so Will lifted her chin up using his finger, forcing JJ to look him in the eye. "You understand that JJ?" He asked softly. JJ stared at his emerald green eyes, "Yeah I understand." She said. "Good, now are we okay then?" JJ nodded and Will pulled her in for a hug before landing a sweet kiss on her head. "So am I picking you up tomorrow? He asked nervously. JJ laughed, "Yeah that would be great, I don't think I can listen to anymore of my mom ranting about our neighbour's cat pooping in our lawn." Will scrunched his face imagining what she had to go through for the whole week before he started laughing. "I'll see you tomorrow then." "Yeah I'll see you tomorrow." JJ repeated. Will walked towards the window he came in from and opened it. Before he climbed off, he turned his head around, "Hey JJ?" JJ turned to look at him "I've missed yah y'know, this past week." He said honestly. JJ smiled, "I missed you too, you dork." Will grinned before climbing out of her window and down the tree. He drove home that night, feeling relieved that he got his best friend back.
