A/N:Well this brings us to the end. I know its way shorter, but I've been struggling on how to end this, and this seemed fiting.

...................

I have to tell her. I could not sit around like I did with JJ. I could miss her, and I wasn't ready for a second heartbreak. Not now.

"Emily?"I hesitated when I heard how shaky my voice was.

"Kiss her already!"Rossi called from a few seats over. All confidence fled me when I realized he knew.

"You heard him."She murmured and offered a small smile. Suddenly, something bumped into me, pushing me far, far too close.

We kissed. It was like something from a fairy tale,as crazy as it sounds. Life didn't work out this way. We both instictively pulled away and blushed as we gazed into eachother's eyes. That's the last thing I remember clearly.

.......

Emily wasn't here yet, and although I would never admit it, I was glad. I was not ready to face her yet, not after last night. I didn't know if she kissed me because of the alchohol or because she actually liked me. My heart wanted it to be the latter, but things never turned out this way.

What worried me more, was if the team found out. Rossi knew, but would he tell?

As if on cue, he walked out of his office and passed me for coffee.

"Rossi!"I called after him. He probably wouldn't tell, but I had to be sure.

"Yes Reid?"He came to me with a mock confused look.

"You wouldn't... tell?"I keep my voice just above a whisper so no one else would hear.

"Tell what?"He asked with the same expression. I could've sworn I saw him wink before he turned back to the breakroom. I sighed in relief and went back to filing paperwork.

I tried to focus, I really did. She walked in and quickly shifted her monitor so she couldn't see me. My thoughts continually drifted back to her, over and over again until Morgan finally got my attention.

"What's wrong Pretty Boy?"He looked away and I used that second to compose myself.

"I'm tired."I admitted, although that was irrevalent.

"Are sure thats all?"He prodded gently,"You seem a little stressed."

"Well,"I pretended to act hesitant while I thought up a lie. I hated doing this to him, but I would not be teased by him about her,"This job doesn't pay that well and-"

"Kid, if you need money, just ask."To my relief, he didn't open his wallet, because I would've spilled the truth in an instant. I would never take his money, not like that.

"I'm managing."He nodded and waited for me to continue. When I didn't he said:

"That's why I'm here Reid. To help you out if you need it."

With that, he left me with my mind. I would never lie like that again.

"Reid."Emily hissed so only I could hear. I glanced up to find her looking directly at me without blushing. She motioned for me to come here.

"Do you want this to be something?"I blurted out before she could speak.

"Of course Reid. I always have."

Wait. Was she there this whole time? I wanted to laugh at myself and hit myself at the same time. How could I be such an idiot? I was a profiler and I missed it.

"If you want this to be something, you need to cool it."A small smile formed and she squeezed my hand gently.

I felt my face get hot rapidly as I said,"Am I that obvious?"

"Yeah, you are."She said it in an endearing tone that made my heart skip a few beats.

I leaned forward slowly, not because I didn't want to be caught. I didn't care about that right now.I just wanted to make sure she as okay with it.

And she was.
