When she got back to the office Reid told her that they had been invited on the case in sunny California. Hotch allowed everyone to go home early to get ready and told everyone to be at the airport by seven tomorrow morning.

Emily said goodbye to the team before leaving the office. It didn't really make sense why Hotch was giving them half the day off, he knew just as much as everyone else on the team that they were all ready to go at a moments notice. She wasn't complaining though.

She was, however, complaining about having to cancel her date with Jason. She sent him and quick text apologizing to him for cancelling. He understood and offered to reschedule the date when she got back.

When she got to her apartment she packed a few extra things in her bag and then just waited for time to pass. Her house was clean and she had leftovers in the fridge for supper so she didn't really have much to do.

She decided to curl up on the couch with Sergio and watch some TV. It had been a pretty stressful day so it was nice to relax with Serg.

Soon though she started to drift off, the documentary about space definitely did not do a good job with keeping her awake. She napped comfortably and peacefully as the TV quietly started showing a terrible sequel to one of Emily's favorite shows.

Meanwhile JJ had come home from work to find Will not there, she had texted him before she left work explaining that they had the day off and he answered her and told her that he was hanging out with some of his work friends. She had been hoping to spend some time with him while Henry was at his grandparents house but apparently Will had other ideas.

Will quickly climbed the stairs to Emily's apartment. Even though her apartment was on the fourth floor Will had got into the habit of taking the stairs. Emily always took the stairs, she continuously said it was because it was a little extra exercise but Will knew it was because she was scared shitless of elevators.

He used his key to let himself into her apartment. Once he saw Emily napping on the couch he closed the door quietly behind him and took off his jacket without making much noise.

Sergio heard him rustle around and immediately got off the couch where he had been napping as well and went over to the entrance where Will was. He purred and rubbed against his leg. Will smiled at the cat and crouched down to scratch him.

When Will first stared coming to Emily's apartment Sergio hated him. He wouldn't give him a second glance and when he did it was only long enough to scratch Will. But as time went on and Will became a regular at Emily's he started warming up.

Will stood up once again and walked over to the couch where Emily was. She looked so peaceful while she slept, which was the polar opposite from what she was like when she was awake. He always felt bad for her. Her job was so stressful and demanding and then she had to keep their relationship a secret when she got home. She never seemed like she got a break.

He went to the kitchen and started making supper for them, might as well there wasn't much else to do when she was asleep.

He looked through the cupboards and finally decided on macaroni and cheese, mainly because that was the only thing he knew how to make. He took out a pot and filled it with water before putting it on the stove. While he waited for the water to boil he set the table.

He didn't tiptoe around anymore, figuring that she wouldn't be able to hear him from the living room and she wasn't a light sleeper anyway and he kind of wanted her to be awake.

Will wasn't the best in the kitchen and he often dropped things on the floor and didn't bother to measure anything but soon he fell into a nice groove and it was a little easier after that.

Emily woke up to the smell of melting cheese. She was momentarily confused until she heard Will's faint voice in the other room. She judged he was probably talking to Sergio, since he was no longer on her lap.

She took her time waking up and stretching. She eventually got up and straightened out her clothes. She walked out to the kitchen where she was met with a busy Will.

"Hey." She said quietly.

"Hey you." Will said while walking over to her once he realized she was there.

He wrapped his arm around her waist and kissed her. "I missed you this weekend." He mumbled against her lips.

Emily moaned in response, not wanting to add anything to the topic. Will broke the kiss, much to Emily's disappointment and went back to cooking.

"It's almost ready if you want to sit to the table." Will informed her.

Emily wordlessly obeyed went over to the table and sat down, watching Will rush around her kitchen. The fact that he knew where everything was comforted her at the same time it made her feel like shit.

"So how was your weekend?" Emily asked.

"Lonely without you." Will answered but decided to continue when Emily raised an eyebrow at him. "The three of us went to the park and had lunch on Saturday and then on Sunday JJ's mother offered to take Henry for a few days, so me and JJ spent the evening together watching movies and stuff. It was nice." Will finished. "What did you do?"

Will put the mac and cheese on two plates and brought them over to the table.

"I cleaned the house, thanks for noticing by the way and I relaxed." Emily said as they began eating. "Sorry I ignored you, I just needed some time for myself."

Will shrugged it off. "No big deal, I had a good weekend anyway."

Will continued to talk about his day with Henry and JJ while they ate. Emily had to give credit where it was due. Will was a good cook, even though mac and cheese isn't complicated to make she still appreciated it.

After they ate they washed the dishes and went to go watch some TV together. Emily grabbed a bottle of wine and two glasses before joining him.

While Will looked through the channels Emily poured each of them some wine. She seemed to have an endless supply of it, but then again she always seemed to need it.

They settled into the couch, Emily cuddled up to Will and rested her head on his chest. Will's arm wrapped around her small frame and his hand rested on the small of her back.

He didn't try anything though. His hand didn't grab at her ass and he didn't say anything sexual instead he soothingly drew circles on her back.

They watched TV until he had to leave, it was nice. It was also extremely rare; usually they ended up having awesome sex somewhere in her apartment but not tonight.

He was about to leave and she had yet to tell him about her date with Jason. She decided not to bother. Since flirting with him had made Will mad she couldn't imagine what he would be like if she told him she had a date with Jason.

Emily walked Will to the door, she draped her arms over his shoulders and kissed him. It didn't turn heated or passionate it was simply a kiss goodnight, like the ones in movies.

"Tonight was nice." He whispered before kissing her nose.

She smiled up at him, a real one and replied. "We should do it again sometime."

Will nodded before kissing her one last time and leaving the apartment.

Emily climbed what seemed like a never ending amount of stairs and went straight to bed, knowing she would need all the energy she could get to get through tomorrow.

Earlier today she had been sure that she could leave for the case and not miss Will but after tonight she wasn't so sure. She liked spending time with him like that, it didn't happen often and she knew he was only doing it to make sure he stayed in her head while they were apart but she didn't care.

She had trouble falling asleep, she didn't know what to do. She had been excited about her date with Jason but now she was a little hesitant. How would Will react if he found out? Why did she even care how he reacted?

She didn't know that either.

Of course she liked Will, but she started wondering if she would like him as much if he weren't with JJ. The fact that he was married was part of his allure, put she didn't know how much of his allure was attached to that. She hadn't wanted to be the kind woman that knew the man was married and continued to see him anyway but the shoe fit like it was made for her.

With some many different thought trains going around in her head Emily knew she wasn't going to get to sleep anytime soon.

Eventually Emily fell asleep, her mind finally slowing down and allowing exhaustion to overtake her in the early hours of the morning.

AN: The first real shredof doubt ladies and gentlemen! Emily's conscious is finally returning to her.

The next chapter will be a little choppy because they will be on a case and this is not a case-fic. I'm not good with describing details of sociopath killers cutting up their victims and such.

Oh and don't forget about Jason :) Thanks for reading.
