When she got to her apartment she expected to see Will or some romantic thing he put together but when she opened the door she was met with an empty apartment.

She closed her door, dropped her bag and took off her shoes. She went to the kitchen and got some water, still no Will.

She didn't know how she felt about him not being there. It was probably for the best she decided. If JJ was getting suspicious about where Will was it was probably good that he wasn't in her apartment.

Emily went into her living room and sat down on the couch. It was deathly quiet but she kind of liked it.

She looked at the clock, it was almost six, Will should be home soon. Emily wondered if JJ would take her advice and ask Will about the things that were bothering her. She also worried how Will would react and what he would say. Would he come clean? Would he lie? Would JJ even believe a lie?

She took a sip of her water and immediately got up to get something stronger.

She went to the kitchen and got the wine she had been drinking the night before and poured herself a glass.

Once again Emily noticed just how quiet it was in the apartment, although this time she didn't like it. The silence made her feel lonely all of the sudden. It was just her and her thoughts and sometimes that was not a good situation.

Especially when she was stressed out and there were too many 'what if's' in the situation.

Son Emily decided to make herself supper, to keep her mind busy more than anything. She sat on her couch and started eating in the suffocating silence. She finally turned on the TV, not even bothering to watch it just wanting the sweet sound of something.

Hours went by and nothing. No text from Will or JJ for that matter. No phone-call either.

Emily knew that one of them would contact her eventually so she grabbed a big blanket and a book she had started reading and curled up on the couch.

Just as Emily was starting to doze off her cell phone rang loudly through her apartment.

Cell phone. That meant Will was calling her.

She jumped up and ran to her phone that she had left in the kitchen. She reached it on the third ring. "Hel- Prentiss." She corrected quickly, after all it might not be Will or JJ.

"Sorry I didn't call earlier, everyone just went to sleep." The southern man said quietly.

Emily looked at the clock, it was almost 10:00pm. Wow, sometimes time went fast when you wanted it to.

"So what's up?" Emily asked as one of her fingers found it's way to her mouth and she immediately started biting at her nail.

"Did you tell JJ to ask me if I was cheating on her?" Will asked, ignoring Emily's question but still answering it indirectly.

"Uh yeah." Emily answered nervously.

"Why?" Will asked, he still seemed kind of calm.

"Well when I went to work today JJ had locked herself in her office and Rossi and Morgan cornered me into going up to talk to her. When I went into her office she said she thought that you were cheating on her and no matter how many times I told her that wasn't possible she wouldn't believe me. So I said if it was bothering her she should just ask you about it. I didn't think it would be a big deal for you and she was really upset."

There was a pause. "I had to lie to my wife Emily." Will said, his voice was calm but Emily could tell it was forced.

"I did too." Emily said defending herself. "I lied about everything, you just had one little white lie. I had the whole rainbow."

"I had to lie to her face!" His voice rose a little but not much, afraid he would wake up his family.

"Did you think I was talking to her ass? I lied to her face too." Now Emily was starting to get mad too. There was no way he was going to put all the blame on her this time.

"It's not the same Emily." Will said with an annoyed sigh.

"How is it not the same? We both lied to JJ, Will."

"Never mind you won't understand."

"Try me." Emily challenged.

There was a long pause before Will finally spoke. "JJ is my wife, Emily. On our wedding day I promised her the world and everything in it. I don't like it when she's upset and I hate that I'm causing it." He took a deep breath before continuing. "Yes I lie to her, more than I'd like to admit but it's always by phone or text, tonight was different. I had to look my wife, the mother of my son in the eyes and lie to her. I don't know Em, it's just different."

"I get it, don't worry. I don't like lying to her either." Emily agreed.

"I don't know what to do anymore." Will said more to himself.

"That makes two of us." Emily paused. "Topic change?"

"I could go for one." Will replied.

"Ok." She thought for a second. "Did you get the office party invitation today?" Emily asked.

"Yeah. Did you see that it is mandatory that everyone attend?"

"Unfortunately yes. I've been trying to come up with an excuse all day but I got nothing."

It wasn't that the office parties were bad it's just that Emily thought they were a little to fake. She loved all the people she worked with and it was great that she got to see them when they were stress free but she hated that they were forced to spend that time together. It was always a headache and Emily always drank too much.

"Me either." Will said, pulling Emily out of her thoughts. "I guess I'll see you there."

"I don't really have a choice." Emily laughed. "Good night Will."

"Night babe." Will replied before he hung up.

Emily put her phone in her pocket before going upstairs to get ready for bed. Another day was over and a new one fast approaching.

AN: So up until now I haven't had an idea for an ending but now I do! I can't wait to write it, (it won't be for awhile though) I'm pretty sure it's going to make everyone hate Will just a little more than they already do. Thanks for the reviews!
