Chapter 6

Emily moved the hand that once rested on JJ's legs to the blonde's neck, while she did that she could feel Jennifer's breath hitch, the tension was almost too much to handle. When their lips were about to touch, the doorbell rang.

"I can't catch a break…" Emily muttered, letting out a breath she didn't know she was holding in. The brunette got up to open the door, leaving a silent JJ on the couch. While Emily was making her way to the door the doorbell rang again. "COMING" Emily opened the door to find Morgan and Garcia arguing.

"-but she told me she lik-" Garcia stopped when Derek hit her with his elbow. "Princess! Oh my god! How are you feeling?" The woman carefully hugged Emily and let her go really quick. "Oh shit! I forgot you forgot! I mean, you don't remember me right?" Prentiss laughed.

"No I don't, but it's ok. Come on in guys. Hey Morgan how are you doing?" Prentiss gave them space to walk in.

"Hey princess, how are you feeling?"

"I'm great, actually, can I talk to you like NOW, quick?" Emily asked rushing every word.

"Uh sure." The man responded already being pulled by his arm to the brunette's room. "We'll be right back." He said to the ladies on the living room.

In the bedroom:

"Dude. Dude. Duuude. Shit hit the fan. I almost kissed JJ." Emily said and Morgan just starred wide eyed.

"Wooow, hold on. Start from the beginning."

In the living room:

"Garcia! Oh god, oh god, oh god! I almost kissed Em." JJ said in a half whisper pacing around the room and moving her hands in the air.

"WHAT?" Garcia squealed.

"Shhhh!" Jennifer tried to sush her friend

"When? I need to know every detail!"

Bedroom:

"We… I… I mean… We were on the couch and I asked her some stuff and there was like a moment, I looked at her and I thought why not, and she didn't seem to mind, I was going for it but the doorbell rand so we stopped. But what if she wasn't into-"

"Emily" Derek tried to interrupt her but she just kept going.

"- and she just feels sorry-" And going.

"Emily"

"- Because my memory is screwed up and sh-"And going until Morgan interrupted in a way he knew she would stop talking.

"Hi JJ, Em wants to tell you something." The tall man said looking at the door, Emily turned so quickly to look that she could have pulled a muscle, and her friend laughed.

"Fuck you Morgan! Do you want to give me freaking heart attack?" She said sitting on the bed trying to breathe normally again.

"You wouldn't shut up I needed to do something… Now, you don't need to worry dude… I mean, seems like she is into you… JJ would not let someone kiss her for pity. So just chill and go with the flow…"

"Do you really think that?" The brunette asked.

"Yeah… I can try to get some information from my baby girl if you want, they are best friends JJ's probably told her something." Morgan offered.

"I thought I was her best friend…" She trailed off.

"Well… I mean… It's kind of completely different. Garcia is her best friend in a non creepy way." He tried to explain.

"Dude… Are you calling me creepy in my own house?" Emily asked arching her eyebrows.

"I don't know how to explain it to you, it's like, Garcia it's the friend that she calls to tell about the movie that she watched, that there was a cockroach at her place, or the one that she texts about how she's scared of the thunders or something. But you are the friend that she cuddled while watching the movie, the one that she called to kill the cockroach and the one that showed up at her place because you knew she was scared of thunders. So yeah… I'd say that you and Garcia are in different levels of friendship with JJ." The man rambled leaving Emily amazed.

"Yea… You could say that." Prentiss muttered.

"EM! COME HERE SO WE CAN ORDER THE PIZZA!" They heard the Jennifer.

"We should go." Emily said getting up

Living room:

"Well, aftertalkingtoyousheaskedmesomethingsaboutheliflikeaboutherdadandmom -"

"Maybe you should breathe a little" Garcia added chuckling and the blonde nodded her head and sat next to her friend on the couch.

"After talking to you she asked me some things about her life, like her parents and all, she got a bit sad, and we were kind of cuddled here." JJ softly said smiling at the memory.

"Oh my gosh that just too adorable." Garcia muttered.

"After that, she asked if I was single and I said that I was and then she asked why and I was like 'what do you mean why' and she said and I quote 'You are beautiful, smart, funny… You could have anyone you want. So why are you still single?' and -"

"Dayum Sugar, who knew Em could be such a charmer" Garcia interrupted her best friend and received a glare. "Sorry… go on."

"Anyway, I said that I didn't know and asked her why she single was. And she said she was probably waiting, and I was like 'for what?' and looked at her, and she looked in my eyes but… Garcia, I felt like she was starring at my freaking soul, and she said she was waiting for the right moment, and she put her hand behind my neck and when we were about to kiss… You guys got here and totally ruined the moment. I swear I heard her saying I can't catch a break or something like that." JJ finished her story and put her head on her hands.

"Wow! What's your next move? I mean, you have to do something." The tech analyst asked and JJ looked at her like she had grown a second head. "What? She likes you! It's obvious!"

"Garcia, don't make assumptions. She is injured, vulnerable, I was simply here. I cannot take advantage of her." JJ explained.

"Ok… But if the doorbell didn't ring, would you have kissed her?" Penelope asked biting her lip.

"No." JJ said trying to sound very sure of what she was saying but the look in her friend's eyes showed her that she wasn't buying. "Maybe." She tried again and it still didn't work. "Yes ok, I would have kissed her." JJ said and Garcia threw her fist in the air.

"I knew it! You guys are meant to be together! Oh I can help! Yes! I'm a great cupid, you'll see I'm going to talk to Em-"

"You're not going to do anything Garcia!" JJ said in a way that the tech analyst couldn't contest. "I'm not going to do anything and I'm fine with that. Ok?" Jennifer asked and her best friend could only nod in agreement. "I think we could order the pizza now... EM! COME SO WE CAN ORDER THE PIZZA!"

The pizza got there and everybody ate on the kitchen. Morgan and Garcia spent the entire dinner exchanging glances while observing their friends interacting with each other. Emily sat next to JJ, mostly because she had no choice since Derek and Penelope almost ran to pick their seats. During dinner Jennifer helped the brunette because as it turns out, it's very difficult to eat pizza with just one hand. They talked about their jobs. Garcia told Emily about the things they did together, the pranks they pulled on Morgan and Reid, last year's comic con, Doctor Who, their monthly Nerd Nights.

After they were done Garcia suggested that they watched a movie, and everybody agreed.

JJ sat on the couch and Emily rested her head on Jennifer's lap, while Morgan was taking their plates to the sink and Garcia was picking their movie.

"I picked your favorite Em! The notebook." The tech girl barely said and JJ was already protesting.

"Her favorite is Star Wars, and you know that because she made us watch every single horrible Star Wars movie on her last birthday…" JJ said while running her finger through Emily's hair, the brunette smiled when she heard what the blonde said.

"Yeah, yeah, but honey… You forgot that Emily has no memory, so she doesn't remember her favorite movie, this could be her favorite movie after we watch it." Garcia said making everybody laugh. She chose to sit next to Derek on the other couch.

When the movie started Prentiss moved positions and sat extremely close to Jennifer and put her good arm around the blonde's shoulder. Penelope noticed and hit Morgan with her elbow.

"Check out the love birds. JJ told me that they almost kissed." The woman whispered to Derek.

"I know! Emily told me!"

"We have to do something!" Garcia told him.

"I don't think we do… " He whispered back and motioned with his head so she would look at them too.

JJ was now comfortably leaning on Emily, left hand resting on Prentiss's right thigh and right hand carefully holding Emily's left hand and intertwining their fingers.

"Is this a good movie?" Emily whispered in JJ's ear making the blonde shiver.

"I like it… You didn't though. You used to watch with me because it's one of my favorites." Jennifer answered.

"The things we do for the people we love I guess." Emily spoke softly, her lips brushed against JJ's neck, and she placed a kiss there.

"Why do you think I watched Star Wars twelve times with you Em?" JJ said softly, smiling and blushing. The blonde turned her head, placed a sweet kiss on Emily's jaw and returned her attention to the movie, unable to see the goofy smile nor the blush on the brunette's face.
