Chapter 25:

They next days went quickly for the two women as they planed and packed their trip to Norway. Their days were filled with joy and love, both women were more and more smitten by the other.

The night before they were scheduled to leave the two of them were curled up on the couch together watching the Norwegian movie "The Man Who Loved Yngve". While JJ struggled a bit, trying to watch the movie and reading the subtitles, Emily sat back and enjoyed the Stavanger dialect.

"How can you understand that?" JJ questioned when the credits started to roll.

"I told you I lived in Norway when I was a kid. But I do have some trouble with the dialect!" JJ only grunted and got to her feet. She walked over to her DVD-player and popped the disc out and put it back in it's cover.

"But I liked the movie! Even though I didn't understand a single thing they said. Except "Satan!"" JJ walked over to the shelf and put the DVD back.

Emily chuckled and put her iPod in JJ's docking station. The living room was filled by the soft voice of Norah Jones.

"Will you dance with me JJ?" Emily had shyly extended her hand to the blonde. JJ tok the hand, and was pulled into the slightly taller woman's embrace. JJ sighed happily as the brunette swayed them around on the living room floor. Emily's hands on JJ's waist and JJ's arms around the brunette's neck and her head on Emily's shoulder.

"I didn't know you were such a good dancer Prentiss! I would've asked you sooner!" JJ lifted her head and gazed into Emily's eyes. Both of them felt the intensity between them.

"First of all, I asked you to dance!" Emily whispered and leaned closer. "And secondly, it's AGENT Prentiss!" Emily's lips were now only inches from JJ's and the blonde could more feel Emily speak, than hear it. Slowly Emily closed the gap between them and their lips met for the first time.

JJ was in heaven. She had kissed a fair share of boys, and occasionally girls, but this was like nothing she'd ever experienced. She could feel the kiss from the rot of her hair to her toes. Her knees went weak and she had goosebumps on her arms. The way Emily's soft lips moved against her own, the taste of the older woman and the feel of her body pressed against her was overwhelming. Emily had moved her hands to cup her face and when her tongue danced over JJ's lips, asking for entrance, JJ quickly opened her moth and their tongues began to dance. JJ closed her eyes tightly and moaned into Emily's mouth. They broke the kiss when the need for oxygen became to much.

Emily couldn't believe what happened. Jennifer Jareau had let her kiss her, and she was kissing back! Emily knew that if she died now, right this moment, would she die the happiest woman on earth. She felt JJ's knees shiver and she pulled the younger woman even closer. She moved her hands to cup the blonde's cheeks and mover her tongue against JJ's lips, silently asking for entrance, witch was granted immediately. JJ's tongue felt amazing against her own and in her mouth as they explored each other's mouths. Emily closed her eyes and tried to memorize the unique taste of JJ. When the need for oxygen became to much, the two of them slowly pulled apart.

"Wow!" Emily whispered breathless when the two of them broke the kiss. She leaned her forehead against JJ's and their eyes locked.

"I know!" JJ whispered back, moving her hands up to cup the older woman's face. "If I knew that calling you Prentiss would make you kiss me like that, I'd call you that a hell of a lot sooner!"

Emily only shock her head and led them to the couch. She sat down and pulled JJ onto her lap. She breathed in JJ and nuzzled her neck. JJ wrapped her arms tightly around the brunette and snuggled closer.

"You okay Jay?" Emily spoke softly and moved her hands up to cup JJ's face. The blonde closed her eyes and leaned into the touch.

"Mmhmm... But I don't think okay will do it. I can't even tell you how fantastic and wonderful I feel. Because of you!" JJ leaned down and placed a soft kiss on Emily's lips.

"How about you, Em? You okay?"

"Yeah. I guess I'm okay." She shrugged her shoulders. "I have this breathtakingly, gorgeous, HOT woman in my lap, who keeps kissing me. She makes me feel so alive, so beautiful, like I mean something to this world." Emily caressed JJ's cheek and pulled her towards her awaiting lips again. Emily quickly discovered that kissing the blond was addictive.

The two of them sat like that for the rest of the evening, JJ in Emily's lap. They simply enjoyed being so close. Emily played with JJ's hair and JJ rested her head on Emily's shoulder.

"Baby? Should we go to bed? You look tired and we have a long day tomorrow." Emily stroke JJ's hair as she whispered softly to the blonde.

"No! I'm to tried to move!" Emily found the blonde adorable when she was sleepy, and she chuckled a little before placing a soft kiss on JJ's forehead.

"You just sleep, love." Emily soothed while cradling JJ in her arms. She slowly got to her feet and carried the blonde to bed, like so many times before. She carefully laid JJ under the comforter, after stripping off the blonde's pants.

"I'll be right back, mi amor." She leaned over and kissed JJ's forehead again, before moving back out to the living room and quickly tidying up and turning the music off. She walked back to the bedroom and quickly undressed.

"Em'ly?"

"Right here, baby." Emily crawled onto the bed, and tucked JJ close to her chest.
