Chapter 54:
"Do you ladies want desert?" Tim smirked, and then added, "here I mean." That comment and the smirked earned him a slap on the shoulder from Emily.
"Behave!"
"Emily, don't hit him!" JJ said softly, earning a smile from Tim.
"Aaww... And she protects me! Emily you better keep her, I like her." Tim winked.
"YES, Tim. We would like desert." Rolling her eyes and ignoring his comment, Emily opened the menu for JJ. "Seeing anything you want babe?"
"Hmm... Yeah, the tiramisu ." JJ smiled sweetly. Emily smiled back.
"Two tiramisu's then." Emily gave JJ a quick kiss. "I'll be right back, sweetie. Want anything else, just call on Tim." She got up and walked away with Tim.
"She sure knows how to woo a woman!" JJ chuckled lightly to herself. She couldn't be happier, and it wasn't just tonight. Being with Emily was like feeling the first of spring or to be on a concert with your favorite band. It was indescribable . JJ sighed happily.
"Sitting here and dreaming?" JJ looked up and met Emily's smily eyes. Her face lit up even more as her bright blue eyes met Emily's warm brown. Emily sat down and picked up JJ's hand. She lifted it to her mouth and kissed the knuckles .
"I love you Jennifer." It was so simple, but at the same time so meaningful . Emily was the only one that made the blonde feel really loved. The way she said those three words, the way her eyes were shining, the sweet way she would kiss her hand or cheek. So simple, but so meaningful.
"Alright ladies. Your desert!" Tim, his timing perfect as always, placed one bowl on the table, winked and disappeared.
"Oh great. One bowl = one spoon. I need to change that stupid rule." Emily muttered to herself.
"You don't wanna share with me?" JJ pouted, and Emily couldn't help but laugh at her girlfriend. JJ pouting was extremely cute. The brunette leaned forward and kissed her girlfriend's pouting lip.
"I'll share anything and everything, baby."
"Tim, thank you for tonight." Emily leaned over and hugged her friend. "And a wonderful host." She added a bit sarcastically . Tim moved away, faking hurt. JJ just smiled at the interaction between the two friends.
"It was lovely to meet you Tim!" JJ smiled and gave the man a small hug.
"Emily, you better keep this one! She is actually nice to me!" Tim whispered loudly to Emily.
"How do you know she's not faking it?" Emily whispered back.
"It was great to meet you too JJ. If you ever need dirt on ms. smarty-pants over here, just give me a call or stop by." He winked flirtatious.
"TIM!"
When James dropped them off outside Emily's apartment building, JJ was surprised. Emily smiled, and tugged the blonde with her.
Inside Emily's condo there were lit candles everywhere and the lights were dimmed, a fire sparked in her fireplace and a nice bottle of wine were prepped in the cooler. To say that JJ was shocked was an understatement. Tears were forming in JJ's eyes.
"Oh, shit! She's crying! What did you do Emily? Something that could trigger a flashback? No." Not knowing what else to do, Emily leaned over and wiped the tear away.
"Baby, what's wrong?"
"Nothing is wrong." JJ smiled, "these are happy tears. You make me so incredible happy Emily. You did all this for me?"
"Of course!" Emily's smiled matched JJ's.
"No-one's ever done things like this for me. You... You make me feel special, beautiful and wanted. But above all that; you make me feel loved and safe. Emily, I don't know what I would do without you." More tears escaped from the blonde's eyes.
"You do know that I feel the same way? That when I'm with you I feel safe and loved? Because you..." Emily tok a moment to try and find the right words. "You just make everything better JJ." She finally whispered. JJ leaned over and captured her girlfriend's lips in a slow and passionate kiss.
"Thank you!" JJ caressed Emily's cheek. After standing in the middle of the candles, kissing and just enjoying being near each other, Emily moved them to the couch in front of the fireplace. She poured the wine and handed JJ a glass.
"To the most beautiful, amazing, talented, sexy, impressive, bad ass woman on earth." Emily winked as she clinked her glass with the media liaison. JJ placed her glass on the coffee table and snuggled close to Emily. For a long moment she was lost in the flames. Emily smiled at the sight and leaned down and pressed a kiss to the top of JJ's head. That made the blonde snap out of it, and she looked up to meet her lover's eyes.
"We need to have a fireplace."
"We do?"
"Yes! We need a big house, with the whole yard and white picked fence thing, and a fireplace. Because I like to watch the flames." Emily smiled at her girlfriend's words and pulled the smaller woman closer to her.
"Do you want kids, Jen?"
"Yeah I do."
"I can easily picture you as a mom to a little boy with blonde hair and beautiful blue eyes." Emily smiled.
"Well, I can picture you with a little girl with dark brown hair and brown eyes." JJ locked eyes with Emily. She really could picture Emily with kids, she knew her girlfriend would be a fantastic mother some day. "You know you're going to be a fantastic mother one day, Em?"
"You think so?"
"Yeah, I do. And I hope that you'll let me experience it with you. Because somewhere down the line I want to have kids with brown hair and brown eyes. Kids that are going to be smart and funny, just like their mother."
Emily leaned down and kissed JJ again. She tried to pour all the love she had for the blonde into the kiss. When they finally broke for air, her eyes found everything she needed in the deep blue eyes belonging to her girlfriend.
"I love you Jennifer Adrianna Jareau!"
"And I love you Emily Elizabeth Prentiss!"
