Chapter 50:
"Emily! What are you doing?" JJ rushed to the other woman's side and grabbed the bags from her. The two of them had gone shopping and picked up some of Emily's things, and Emily had just lifted two heavy bags out.
"Carrying things from the car to your house?"
"Nope! You, my dear, are going to go inside and take a bath. I know you're tired, it has been a long day!" Emily was about to protest, but JJ held up a hand. "I know you hate feeling like this and that you're 'okay', but Em, I know you're tired. Please, please let me take car of you!" The blonde was almost begging, so Emily simply nodded, put the bags in JJ's arms and walked towards the house.
"Thank you, Jen." Even though she would never admit it, the profiler was a little soar and tired. The feeling of having someone to take care of her was a little strange to her. Emily was used to take care of herself and other, so used to work through the pain. But JJ read her like an open book. If she looked a little tired, JJ would make her sit down, take a bath or a nap.
While Emily went inside, JJ started to unload the car. JJ was pleased that Emily didn't argue with her, she knew the older woman was unfamiliar with being taken care of and she had expected more struggling from the older woman, but it seamed as Emily too enjoyed being taken care when she was soar and tired.
"Babe, you hungry?" After putting everything away JJ made her way to the bathroom where her girlfriend were taking a bath.
"Hmm...? Yeah, I guess I'm a bit hungry." Emily opened her eyes and turned her head. "But come here first!" The brunette reached out for JJ's hand, and when the blonde tok it, she tugged her over and kissed her passionately on the lips. When they broke for air, JJ wore a happy smile.
"Not that I mind, but what was that for?" JJ sat down on the edge of the tub and reached over to find a wash cloth and started to rub it over Emily's back.
"Thank you!" The answer came in a whisper as Emily leaned into the touch and closed her eyes. "Thank you for being here for me and taking such good care of me. I...I'm not used to it, and I'm sorry if I'm being a bitch, but you...you are so good to me, Jay. What did I do to deserve you?" Touched by the brunette's words, JJ leaned down and kissed her temple.
"This is nothing compared to what you did for me, Em! I love you and I want to take care of you." She turned Emily's head to look her in the eyes and placed a soft kiss on her lips. "And I ask myself the same thing every day. I guess we're just lucky." She captured Emily's lips once again, this kiss a little more heated than the other.
Emily hummed happily and lifted her hand to cup JJ's face.
"I love you so much Jennifer!" As soon as JJ's full name slipped from her lips, the brunette froze. She hadn't called her girlfriend with her full name since the morning when JJ asked her not to. The blonde just smiled down to her and kissed her again.
"I though my name would bring up the bad memories, but hearing you say it like that makes me want to hear it everyday. I love you too Emily."
For the next minutes they sat in silence, while JJ tenderly washed Emily's back. Placing a kiss between the brunette's shoulder blades, JJ stood up.
"What do you want for dinner, Em?" Unable to not touch the brunette, her hand found Emily's cheek and stroke it tenderly.
"Uhm.. I don't know, Jennifer. I'm so hungry I'll eat anything you serve me, so surprise me!" She kissed the palm of JJ's hand before letting it go.
"Okay. Finish your bath and I'll go down and start dinner."
After one last kiss the blonde want down stairs to make dinner for the two of them.
Docking her iPod in JJ's docking station Emily moved into the kitchen. JJ had her back to the brunette, so Emily sneaked over and wrapped her arms around her and kissed her neck.
"Oy, there! I don't think my girlfriend would appreciate you doing that!" JJ pressed her back into Emily's front.
"Oh yeah? What's she like anyway?"
"She's best." JJ smiled and turned around in Emily's arms. "And I am so madly, completely, head over heels in love with her." JJ whispered the last words and leaned into Emily and placed the sweetest kiss on her lips.
"She sure sounds like a catch." Emily whispered.
The kitchen was filled with music from the living room, and when Jamie Cullum's God Only Knows came through the speakers, Emily pulled JJ tighter into the embrace.
"Dance with me baby."
The two of them swayed; JJ resting her head on Emily's shoulder with her arms wrapped around the taller woman's neck.
"I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it
God only knows what I'd be without you
If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you"
Emily sang softly in JJ's ear and pulled JJ even tighter.
When the song ended they parted. JJ reached up and tok Emily's face in her hands.
"God, you're so perfect!" She pulled the brunette's face down to her own and they kissed again; slow, but filled with love.
"You like?" Halfway through the dinner JJ looked questioning at her girlfriend. The brunette had been quiet during dinner and were no looking out in space.
"Yeah, this was really good, Jen!"
"I'm glad! But what's on your mind? You seam far away."
"Oh, I was just thinking about something." The brunette blushed a bit. She reached over the table and tok JJ's hand in her own.
"Is everything alright?" JJ looked worried and she went through possible things that could be wrong.
"Yes! Everything is perfect. I...I just have something to ask you, sweetie."
"Oh! You know you can ask me anything." JJ squeezed Emily's hand and smiled at the brunette.
"Well, since we, technically, never got our first date, I was wondering if you maybe wanted to go with out with me tomorrow?"
JJ couldn't help but smile. They were practically living together and ate all the meals together, but her girlfriend wanted to take her out on a date!
"I don't know, Prentiss. I don't just go out with anyone."
"Back to the 'Prentiss' thing again?" Emily smirked, "Agent Prentiss! Agent!" The brunette playfully demanded.
"Well, you see, every time I call you 'Prentiss' I end up with getting kissed by my super hot girlfriend, so I think I'll stick with 'Prentiss'!" JJ winked and the tow of them busted out in laughter. JJ moved around the table and sat down on her lap.
"You never answered, Jareau. Wanna go out with me, baby?"
JJ pretended to think about it before leaning forward to capture the brunette's lips.
"Is that answer enough for you?"
