bubble gum // a jemily fanfic

chapter 2: u

authors note:

basically, not that many people read the first chapter, and since it's my first story ever i figured that that would happen. i was thinking since the first chapter was super short because i was getting a handle on what i wanted to write, that maybe if i wrote another, longer chapter more people would read it. enjoy chapter 2! and don't forget to vote or comment <3

EMILY'S POV:

jj and i walk to board the jet together, and we're early, like usual. as we're walking up the stairs, i grab the railing and so does jj at the same time and our hands brush and i quickly pull mine away. my stomach drops. good drops like butterflies or squiggles. 

 "our hands have brushed probably a thousand times, why all of a sudden, do i feel like this?!" i think to myself. 

when i jumped at the touch of her hand i think she noticed because when i did she asked "are you okay? what's wrong?" 

 "nothing, i'm fine sorry. i just zoned out" i said trying to play it cool. 

 "oh, okay" she laughed kind of confused. 

 "oh my god, why do you have to be so weird!!! what is wrong with you, shes just a pretty girl" i asked myself internally.

we sat and talked for about 15 minutes before reid and derek walked onto the jet. derek told us the rest of the details of the case, which took another 10 minutes. he told us that me and jj would have to go undercover, and pretend to be a couple living in the middle of the geographical profile. in the house we could just hangout like normal and do whatever we wanted, but in public we were to act like a couple, hand holding hugging, even kissing. the whole nines. derek also explained that for the couples both to have died within 5 minutes of each other, it was very possible that we were dealing with 2 unsubs. 

 "pretending to like like jj? that should be easy." i mumble under my breath. 

 "what was that?" morgan laughs.

 "oh nothingg!" i laugh back and jj just sits there confused. 

 since morgan is one of my best friends i think he might know about my newly discovered, confusing feelings for jj. by the time he is done explaining everything we missed, hotch, rossi, and even penelope are already on the jet. 

"this could be fun! not having to do much actual work, just go out and do normal people things and then when we get back to our 'house' we can just eat and watch movies" jj explains. 

 "yea this could be super fun, or it could be super awkward" i say. 

 "oh, be quiet. we'll be fine. why would it be awkward? is it the kissing part? because we don't have to do it only like once or twice" she laughs.

 i think to myself "no, it's because i think i might be falling for you and there's no way i can ever tell you because you're one of my best friends and i don't want to lose you, i know you like girls and all but you would never like me" she scoots a little closer to me on the bench and whispers 

"or is it because we both like girls? because i promise i won't make it awkward like that if you won't."

 "of course i won't and since no one else knows they can't suspect anything" i laugh.

JJ'S POV:

"or is it because we both like girls? because i promise i won't make it awkward like that if you won't." i whisper to emily. 

 "of course i won't and since no one else knows they can't suspect anything" she answers back laughing. 

 "yea it definitely won't be awkward, i've just been in love with my best friend since the day i met her" i think. "we will be fine. i promise, and if you get uncomfortable, just let me know and i'll do the same with you"
