Thank you guys for the reviews! They make my day. This one is a little short, I'm adding a little twist with Will to get our ladies moving, I hope you continue to enjoy:)

The weeks and cases went by quickly. Emily could sense a change in Reid. The gangly boy had been friendly and someone Emily enjoyed being with previously; ever since she asked him what was wrong, he barely looked at her. Unless forced by Hotch to be partnered with Emily, he avoided her like the plague. Emily took it in stride and made sure she didn't let anyone notice how much it hurt her. If nothing else, it made her remember that these people were her coworkers and not her friends. After admitting to JJ that she was attracted to women, Emily had avoided her as much as she could. Emily knew she was attracted to the blonde communications liaison. Thinking she had been straight had been the perfect excuse for her to ignore it, now her only reason was they worked together. Emily believed in not getting into romantic relationships in work. More so now after everything that had happened with Doyle. Distancing herself from JJ was the only thing she could think off.

Her mother had been calling her recently trying to set her up on a date with one of her diplomat friend's son. He was a kid Emily had known – and mostly hated – as a child. Emily had been avoiding her calls as much as she could. Using their new case in New Orleans as an excuse to get off of the phone, Emily ran to the jet.

"I've got to go Mother." Emily said hanging the phone up and plopping down next to Morgan. Emily had sort of called him out on blaming JJ after the case with Hankel. Morgan had been pissed initially, but after Emily yelled at him, he had gone and apologized – more than once – to JJ. Since then, she and Morgan had grown closer; something Emily was grateful for now that Reid was angry with her and she was trying to avoid JJ. Even though she had been working at the BAU for months now, Hotch still wasn't happy about her being there, and Gideon was a confusing man to know exactly where you stood. Emily respected him and according to Morgan, she would know if he didn't approve of her.

"Mother huh?" Morgan said to her with a grin. "Famous Ambassador Prentiss?"

"That would be her." Emily answered back shortly as she dug out her file and began flipping through it. A piece of paper slipped out of her folder and onto the floor. Emily went to grab it, but JJ beat her to it. Handing it back to her with a bright smile JJ then sat down across from Emily. "Thanks." Emily said softly, trying to control her voice. She glanced back down to the file and did her best to ignore JJ's gaze. Just because JJ was interested in women, didn't mean she was interested in Emily.

Arriving at the scene Emily smiled at the lead detective and got down to business. Will LaMontange had that southern charm that Emily remembered from when she spent time there for a while as a child. If Emily didn't know any better, she would think that he was flirting with her. While the timing and place was odd, Emily couldn't help but be flattered a little. As she smiled and answered a question he asked her, JJ placed herself in between them and began asking the detective about the case. He went along with her, leaving Emily and Morgan at the crime scene.

JJ did not like this redneck cocky bastard of a detective one little bit. The second they arrived at the scene, he began flirting with Emily, and as soon as they left he began flirting with JJ. She wanted nothing more than to yell at him, but she kept it professional and worked around it. As he continued to flirt – and then drink – JJ finally put an end to it.

"Detective LaMontange, I'm gay." She said as she flipped through the file again. "Also, isn't it a little early for that?"

"This is New Orleans, its never really too early, and that is a damn shame, pretty girl like you?"

"Yeah, well..."

"Damn shame."

"Yes, you mentioned that, how about we focus on the case?"

"Sure, sure."

They continued working alone for a few more minutes before rejoining the team. JJ couldn't help but notice that Will placed himself right next to Emily. As Hotch pulled her over to talk, JJ kept glancing over at them every chance she got. Emily was laughing with Will and Morgan and as he leaned in and touched her arm, JJ felt like grabbing her gun.

The team headed to the hotel for the evening, which only had a few rooms open. Hotch and Gideon shared, Morgan and Reid took the other, and JJ and Emily headed off to theirs. As the night had worn on, Will and Emily had worked together more than once, and every time JJ saw them she got further annoyed. To top it off, Emily had been avoiding her for weeks. They dragged themselves into the room, beyond tired. Emily dropped her bag and asked if JJ wouldn't mind her using the bathroom first. Shaking her head JJ caught herself watching Emily walk away, she really knew how to wear a pantsuit. As Emily shut the door JJ quickly changed into a tank top and some cotton shorts. A second later, Emily came out of the bathroom clad in a baggy Star Wars t-shirt and nothing else. JJ sucked in her breath and made sure not to make eye contact with her as she headed into the bathroom. Goddamn, she has fantastic legs. JJ thought as she stood over the sink calming herself down. JJ had never been interested in nerds before, but she found everything Emily did adorable, and very, very, hot. Brushing her teeth and washing her face, JJ headed back out to their room. Emily was already in her bed, a book in her lap and didn't glance up to look at her. Pretending not to be hurt at Emily's insistence to avoid her, JJ climbed into bed and got comfortable. JJ couldn't figure out why Emily was avoiding her. The only thing she could come up with, was that Emily had noticed JJ checking her out and was uncomfortable with it. Cursing herself, JJ knew she would have to get herself under control.

"Do you mind if I read for a few minutes? It helps me take my mind off the case and fall asleep."

"No problem." JJ answered back. Emily's phone buzzed and looking at the message, she groaned. "Is it about the case?" JJ asked sitting up a little.

"No." Emily set the phone down without answering the message. "My mother." She said with a strained voice. "She won't stop calling."

"What does she want?"

"To set me up on a date, what else?"

From the tone in her voice and the way Emily threw the book aside, JJ could tell this was a regular annoyance in Emily's life. Mimicking Emily's position, JJ turned and faced her. "She does that a lot?"

"Every chance she gets. Her greatest hope would be for me to quit the bureau, join her in politics, marry some well-to-do man and have babies."

"Haha, yeah, my mom used to think like that too. She hates my job, the danger aspect, she's proud, but she worries. All she wants are grandkids, she is after me all the time to get married and start a family. I've told her a million times I'm not really sure I'm the marrying and kids type."

"Really? You don't want kids?" Emily asked.

"I don't think I would make a very good mother."

"Seriously? JJ, I've seen you with kids, you're great!"

Sheepishly JJ smiled into her blanket a little. She liked kids, she just wasn't sure she would be very good with one every day and JJ would never want to do it alone. She couldn't see herself with one woman for the rest of her life, commitment wasn't really her thing, so kids had pretty much been ruled out.

"I don't know. What about you?"

"I think I'd like to get married and have kids someday, I just never found the right person. Our job doesn't exactly make it easy." Emily added with a laugh.

"Yeah, that's for sure." Emily shifted herself on her bed and JJ bit her lip while she watched her. Emily was definitely not wearing a bra. "Will seemed to like you." She said with a tight voice.

"Its not very professional, flirting during a murder investigation." Emily scoffed. "But he seems like a nice guy I guess."

"Yeah, real nice." JJ said sarcastically. Flirts with you, then the second your out of the room flirts with me. Finds out I'm gay, back to you. Real charming fucker. JJ thought as they turned out the lights and went to sleep.
