The Trouble With The Truth

what to do?

I left work that afternoon without saying a word too Emily. As I walk towards my car my phone vibrates. Its Alex.

   "Miss me already?" I tease being as I saw her just a few minutes ago. She laughs on the other end and I can hear the nervousness in her voice.

   "It's hard not to" she flirts. " I was wondering how you would feel about going out tonight?"

I pause, as the thought of Emily crosses my mind. It quickly fades as I recall our last encounter.

   "I would love to"

   "great! How about I pick you up at seven?"

   "I'll see you then"

I hang up and get into my car. My cheeks are a rose color at this point and I drive home looking forward to seven.

I shower and put on a black cocktail dress that isn't necessarily too short, but short enough. It hugs my body like it's custom made for me. I add a few curls to my hair and apply a light face of make-up. Before too long seven o'clock rolls around and there's a knock on my door. I open it to find Alex wearing a white collared blouse that had the first few button undone. Her hair fell perfectly on her shoulders.

   "Hi" I smile as I watch her scan my body.

   "wow... hi" she starts blushing.

   "Is everything ok?" I raise an eyebrow.

   "yeah, you just, you look amazing"

   "thank you, so do you" I say and she offers her hand out to me

   "Ready?"

I nod and we walk out to the car. Once we arrive at the club we were going to she places her hand on my lower back as she leans in so I could hear her through the noise.

   "how about we go to that corner over there" she gestures to a quieter corner and I nod. She takes my hand and guides me through the crowd. Once we reach the table it becomes a bit quieter.

   "I'll run and get us something to drink, what would you like?" she asks

   "I'll have a vodka cranberry with an extra shot on the side"

She smiles and walks up to the bar. It's not too long before she returns to the table with our drinks.

   "so," she starts

   "so..." I smirk

   "how long have you been with the BAU?"

   "It'll be in April"

   "Wow, how do you like it?"

   "I love it. It is an incredible job" I smile. "how about you? Where did you work before?"

   "I was a professor, Harvard"

My eyes widen, "Harvard? Holy shit Alex, that's impressive" I smile. "what else are you hiding"

   "oh you have no idea" she smirks and start to get hot. The way she looks at me, it's like she wants to absolutely rail me, but in the most respectful way possible. It's quiet for a moment when she brushes a strand of hair behind my ear. I turn to look at her and she tilts her head to the side, like she's trying to admire a piece of artwork from every angle.

   "what" I ask with a nervous chuckle.

   "you're so incredibly stunning Y/n. I hope you don't mind me saying that" she says with slight panic.

   "Not at all" I look into her eyes and right as we were about to seal the deal I hear a familiar voice that catches both of our attention. We both turn and as if my life is fucking drama movie, there Emily stands. 

   "wow, what are you two doing here?" she gives me a glare subtle enough for it to go unnoticed by Alex, but I knew. It was the 'what the fuck do you think you're doing' look.

   "just out for drinks. and yourself?" Alex asks as I subconsciously shift in my seat. Alex must have noticed because she places her hand on my thigh. I inhale sharply at her touch.

   "drinks" she glances down at Alex's hand on my thigh.

   "I actually need to talk to Y/n about something if you wouldn't mind" Emily stares at me.

   "can it wait til tomorrow?" I ask irritated.

   "now. please" she says sternly.

   "Emily, I will call you tomorrow." I decide to stand my ground and I can feel Alex squeeze my thigh a bit. Emily grits her teeth. "fine" she sneers and walks away.

   "what was that all about?" Alex asks.

   "She really doesn't like me" I roll my eyes.

  "should we go?" Alex asks and I nod. She makes sure to have her hands on me as we walk out. The drive back she rests her hand on my leg, like it's just natural. Once we arrive at my place she walks me up tp the door.

   "would you want to come in?" I ask slightly afraid it might be too forward.

She just smiles and nods, "I would love to"

We walk into the kitchen and I pour us each a glass of wine and we go to sit on the couch. We face each other and continue talking for about a half hour.

   "you're pretty incredible you know that" she looks down at her lap and then up at me.

"and we've only been on one date" I smile and she stares into my eyes.

  "I mean, we don't, its not like-" I stammer a bit obviously nervous about what I've just said.

   "Y/n, I was under the impression that this was our first date" she smiles and places her hand on my leg. " and I'm really hoping it won't be the last?" she places her hand on the side of my face and I whisper "me too" before she closes the distance between us. Her lips are soft and warm. She pulls me in gently, craving more. I now grab her face pulling her into me, kissing her harder than before. She takes one hand and rubs my thigh. She slips her tongue into my mouth and I moan. She breaks away and whispers

   "should I stop? I don't know how far you want to go?"

I'm amazed by her politeness and honesty and i't made me want her even more.

   "only if you want to, we don't have to do anything you don't wanna do" I assure her.

   "believe me, the last thing I want to do is stop" she looks at me with pleading eyes.

   "then don't"
