Garcia gasped and he took the advantage to deepen the kiss. She was more than surprised but kissed him back - he was a damned good kisser. When air became a necessity, he backed away slowly and looked at her with tenderness. She was taken aback, never had she seen Rossi be that way with others.
''I don't understand'' she whispered with wide eyes. He chuckled and brought his hand up to caress her cheek. ''What don't you understand, Cara?'' he asked. She chuckled dryly, ''What is all this? Why are you going through so much trouble?'' she replied. He shrugged, she saw he didn't really know how to answer her. She huffed and grabbed her things, ''Cara -'' he started but she cut him off, ''I'm not looking to be another notch on your belt, see you at work'' she said and left.
She arrived home and decided to take a bath, needing to calm down. She let the hot water do it's magic and relax her. Her phone rang, she looked at the ID and smiled, ''Hey Hot Stuff'' she answered. ''Baby Girl, how was your supper?'' he asked. She felt him distant, ''not bad. You gotta give it to Rossi though, he does know how to cook'' she said. He chuckled, ''Yeah. Where are you now?'' he asked, ''home, in my bath'' she teased, he laughed. A female voice was heard through the phone, ''Listen Baby Girl, I gotta go but I'll text you later'' he said.
Once they hung up, she called JJ immediately, needing to talk to someone about what had just happened. ''Oh my God, JJ, you will not believe what happened'' she said as soon as JJ answered the phone. ''And Hello to you too Garcie'' she replied with a small chuckle, ''what happened?'' Garcia sighed deeply, ''Rossi kissed me'' she told her best girl friend, ''wait, what?'' she asked. ''I had told you that Rossi's been following me around lately, and calling me out of the blue, right? Well tonight was no exception. He offered to cook me supper and when we were done he kissed me'' explained Garcia.
There was a moment of silence, ''what did you do?'' she asked, ''I told him I didn't want to be another notch on his belt and left'' replied Garcia. She heard JJ sigh deeply, ''Oh Garcie. You're the one who sees a relationship form before any of us but you can't see that Rossi's into you?'' Garcia passed a hand over her face, ''look. He's calling out of the blue to see how you're doing. He waits for you after work and walks you to your car. Offers supper and then kisses you, and you don't think he likes you?'' explained JJ when Garcia didn't answer.
Garcia groaned and laid her head back against the tub, ''he's the legend of the FBI and I'm the bubbly, perky, hippie of the FBI. Why would he like me?'' she asked. She heard JJ chuckle, ''Oh Honey, who wouldn't? He got to know you more, just like everybody else on the team and in the FBI, and by the way nobody thinks of you as a hippie! They appreciate the color that helps with the darkness'' replied JJ. Garcia sighed, ''Henry needs me, I'll talk to you later'' said JJ before hanging up.
Rossi liked her? How could it be? Ever since she had gotten shot, she had started to be wary of men, she didn't trust them. Rossi was a legend at the FBI, and the reason why there were frat rules at the FBI. She thought he wanted her for a one night stand, not a relationship, but she was still wary of him, being a super agent and all. She wondered if she should give him a chance or just forget about the whole ordeal. She did enjoy that kiss though, and she had to admit that the man knew what to do with that mouth of his. A few mental images of a naked Rossi, joining her in the bath made its way through her mind. She shook her head, 'why the hell am I imagining Rossi naked?' she thought before deciding it was due to exhaustion. After all, she hadn't slept well in the past couple days. 'A nice cup of tea and a good night's tea will rid me of those images' she thought. If only Garcia could see the future, she would know that tea and sleep will not help her in any way.
