Tara and I had been dating for about two months but considering our God's at the BAU had never found the time to go on a proper date. I had bugged her about it until we both finally made plans to clear our schedules one night after work, she had insisted on picking the place and there was no point in trying to fight her. So I was going in blind, great.

That evening I was sitting at my desk finishing up some paperwork when I noticed Tara walking over to my desk.
"Hey, are you excited for tonight, " she asked eagerly, I smiled up at her from my chair and lightly bit my bottom lip.
"Very, but can I at least have a hint, " I whined, Tara scoffed lightly at me then ruffled my hair.
"No, it's a surprise. But, I promise that you're gonna love it, " she said with a wink, I rolled my eyes and she went back to her desk.

~Time Skip~

Tara and I grabbed our stuff and said our goodbyes to the rest of the team and headed out to her car,
"Now can you tell me where we're going?" I asked, Tara, rolled her eyes at me and shook her head.
"For the last time you'll just have to wait and see," Tara insisted, I sighed and rolled my eyes, without looking at me Tara reached over and out her hand on my inner thigh,
"Roll your eyes one more time and see what happens, Y/n."

I felt my face flush at her warning and I kept myself in check for the rest of the ride, after about ten minutes of quiet driving Tara parked the car in front of what looked like a small bookstore.
"Ta-Dah, we're here," Tara said gesturing out the front window, I smiled over at her and hopped out of the car. I drank in the sight of the small shop with an excited smile, Tara noticed my amazed look and smirked placing one of her hands on the small of my back and leading me into the shop.

When we walked into the shop I was surprised to see all the deep colors and muted tones.
"This looks amazing, Tara," I turned around and pecked her on the cheek, she chuckled and wrapped her an atom around my waist.
"That's not even the best part," Tara said leading me to the back of the shop, when we reached my back there was a dark red door with gold leafing. We approached the door and Tara knocked three times waiting for something to happen, I heard a lock turn and a chain unlatch then the mystical door opened.

Tara ushered me into this magical cafe, it looked like something right out of a fantasy novel. My eyes grew wide and my mouth hung open trying to search for the words to describe this place. Tara noticed how mesmerized I was and smiled at me,
"So was it worth the wait," she asked, I couldn't stop smiling.
"Yes, very worth it. But, are you sure coffee at almost nine at nights a good idea," I asked, she lead me towards an isle if books and wrapped her arms around my waist, pulling me into her chest.

"Then I guess we're lucky they also have hot cocoa," Tara added pecking me on the lips, I gasped slightly at the hot cocoa comment and grabbed her hand dragging her to the counter with me. We ordered our drinks then went to a small seating area near a window, I stared out the window for a little while enjoying the view of snow falling to the ground, I looked back at Tara innocently bit my bottom lip. She grabbed my hand and brought the back of my palm to her lips, I blushed at the simple gesture,
"You're amazing, Y/n, and I mean you are truly amazing." Tara said still holding my hand, I looked into her eyes and saw nothing but love and admiration.

"I love you Dr Tara Lewis." I blurted out, the words just slipped out of my mouth as I stared into her warm brown eyes. Tara looked shocked for a moment and I could feel my anxiety creeping in, I was pulled out of my thoughts by Tara speaking again,
"I love you too, Y/n." Tara said, brushing her thumb over my knuckles, I smiled like an idiot and we talked for awhile and finished our cocoa then headed out. When we got outside it was still snowing, and being the wonderful partner I am I balled up some snow and threw it at Tara.

She stopped dead in her tracks and I heard her let out a dangerously low laugh, I stopped for a moment rethinking my life choices up until this moment.
"You have no idea what you've just started," Tara said with a smile,
"What my hand slipped," I joked laughing as we walked back to her car.

~Small Time Skip~

We reached my driveway and sighed at the thought of the night ending,
"Well, this is it," I sighed grabbing my bag.
"I had an amazing time with you tonight, N/n." Tara said,
"N/n?" I questioned,
"It's a nickname, anyways I really want to do this again sometime," she added, I huffed as I was about to get out of her car.
"Hey, you know the roads are getting icy, and I would hate if you got hurt driving home, so if it's alright with you how would you feel about staying the night?" I asked.Tara chuckled then answered,
"Let's go have more cocoa."
