Emily woke up to fingers running softly up and down her side and breath on her neck.

'Morning' she mumbled, enjoying the peaceful feeling of waking up after actually being in the same bed with the woman she loved all night for once.

'Good morning' Taylor replied, placing a kiss below her ear.

'How often does this happen?'

'Does what happen?' Taylor played dumb as she placed a kiss on her neck.

'Us waking up in the same bed' she smiled, understanding exactly where Taylor was headed.

'Not often enough' she said, looking directly into her eyes before she slowly kissed the birthmark just below Em's right collar bone which she always paid special attention to. 'And therefore, I think we should make the most of it' she said with a devilish smile, before capturing the brunette's lips with her own.

Maybe it was time to use his old method. If he was going to get someone with friends in high places to even talk to him he couldn't exactly jump them from behind like the last two.

No.

He had to go back to basics, so he pulled out his phone, and typed in the number he now hated to call.

Following their morning 'escapades' and a light breakfast, Emily and Taylor both agreed that a run would do them some good, especially as it looked like that would be all the fresh air they'd be getting that weekend. Emily finished tying her shoes, grabbed her phone and locked the door behind her as she jogged to catch up with Taylor who was already pressing the button for the elevator.

After warming up with a jog around their block, they agreed to race to the park, do two laps round the whole place, and the first person to their usual meeting point would win, forcing the loser to buy lunch. Grinning as Emily agreed, Taylor took off in a sprint down the block, and just picturing Emily's shocked face was enough to keep her moving through fear her FBI girlfriend might just kick her ass.

Cheat was the only word that ran through Emily's head as she fought to catch up with the figure of her girlfriend disappearing into the distance and round the corner away from her. C'mon you're an FBI agent. You can't let her beat you! Emily willed herself on as she closed the gap between them.

On the second lap of the park, they were running in tandem, side by side, the race forgotten… or so Taylor thought, until they rounded what would be the last bend of their race and she barely had time to register the fact before she saw Emily break into a sprint beside her, easily beating her to the huge oak tree which towered the benches by the play area, shading them from the sun. Knowing that she'd never hear the end of it, Taylor didn't walk over to Emily, but rather went and collapsed down on a bench to catch her breath.

'Aww what's up baby? Can't take it that your girlfriend beat you?' Emily's teasing began the second she sat down beside her.

'Yeah yeah because it's so easy for a poor innocent doctor to beat an incredibly fit, in-good-shape-because-you-chase-bad-guys-all-day FBI agent' she rolled her eyes and tried not to sound like she was being too childish.

Knowing she was just winding Taylor up – which would not help her case when she wanted to move things to the bedroom later – Emily let it drop. 'Well if it helps I think your incredibly fit even without the chasing the bad guys part. Maybe it's all the chasing the bad cancer cells? Or maybe I'm just biased because I think you're sexy' she winked, kissing her on the cheek lovingly.

'Sweet talk won't help you Em' joked Taylor, guessing Emily's thoughts. Her girlfriend may be the profiler, but it didn't take a genius to know what Emily's ulterior motives were.

Just as Emily was about to respond, her phone rang out. Checking the caller ID, she groaned.

'Who is it?'

'JJ. If this is a case, I swear to God-'

'You could just say "look Jennifer, I'm not coming in, I'm spending some much needed time with my girlfriend. Yes, girlfriend, a.k.a I'm a lesbian"…It would work'

'Much as I love you Tay, that's a lot to reveal over the phone' Emily smiled apologetically, placed a chaste kiss to her lips and walked a few feet away to take the call.

Sighing, Taylor turned her attention to the play ground, smiling at the young kids running around.

'Sound's like a tense issue' a voice beside her snapped her from her thoughts.

'I'm sorry?'

'I didn't mean to intrude, I just overheard the two of you' the man smiled warmly, like he understood what was going on. She hadn't even registered his presence beside her beyond seeing if there was room on the bench next to him when she had flopped down a few minutes previously.

'It's okay, we're not exactly quiet. Yeah it's just something we don't exactly see eye to eye on' she smiled back, leaving it at that.

'Relationships huh?' he chuckled.

'Yeah' Taylor glanced up at Emily 'but she's definitely worth it'. She watched Emily end the call and motion towards the park gates, silently asking if she was ready to leave.

'I'm sure she is.' The mans words hung in the air, as Taylor quickly said goodbye and left. A smile spread across his lips as he found who he was trying to see.

'C'mon Daniel! Time to go!' A young boy ran over and as he lifted him into his arms, he took one last look at the couple.

The secret couple.

Yes, he thought they'll do nicely.

A/N: ohhhhhh look's like someone's made an appearance again after being missing in the last chapter…

I'll hopefully have more up tomorrow.

Review? :)
