The Trouble With The Truth

Please Keep Loving Me

Back at Quantico:

"Y/n can you help me out with this please" Blake called from her desk. I was trying to be nicer. Emphasis on the trying.
"Sure" I said in a dull tone.
The computer screen was glitching out, neither one of us sure what was going on.
"This is a problem for Garcia" I stood back puzzled as Blake let out a sigh.
"Yeah, thanks anyway" she gave a weak smile. As I went back to my desk I glanced up at Emily's office. Her eyes were glued to me and once she knew I was looking at her she turned away. I took that as my cue to go talk to her.

"Hey" I knocked on the door frame. "is everything ok?"

She stayed silent as she sat at her desk. I looked behind me and closed the door.

"Em, what's wrong?" I asked as I walked closer to her.

"I just don't understand why you keep engaging with Blake" she said with a steely tone.

"Emily, we work together, I'm gonna have to talk to her sometimes" I said gently.

"I just feel like she's gonna get the wrong idea Y/n."

I took a deep breathe before continuing.

"It's not like I'm flirting with her" I said plainly.

"Does she know that" Emily asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Emily, come on" I chuckled lightly, but it became clear she was not joking by any means. "You're not serious? Emily, of course, she knows I am with you." I stressed.

She stayed silent as she glanced down at her desk, avoiding meeting my eyes.

"Do you realize that."

"I'm sorry what?" I asked sounding both shocked and confused.

"Do you understand that you're in a relationship with me? Because ever since that night you went to her hotel room, you two seem to be awfully friendly."

My heart sunk to my feet as my cheeks grew hot.

"You're kidding me, right?" I scoffed in disbelief. Again, she stayed silent. "What? Do you think we fucked and then I came back to our room and went to sleep with you? Huh?"

"I just don't want there to be any misconceptions as to what we are" she said.

I stood there in silence staring at her.

"I love you and only you. What have I done to make you think otherwise?" I whispered as I walked towards her, taking her hand in mine.

"Well, you two did sleep together at one point Y/n. I'm sorry if it's unsettling for me to see you all buddy buddy with her."

I retracted my hand and scoffed.

"Once. That happened one time. What do you not trust me?" I asked half jokingly. Yet again. No reply from Emily.

"Wow" I whispered as tears began to form in my eyes. "You really know how to pack a punch...ma'am" I sneered as I stormed out of her office.

I sat at my desk and aggressively began to type out a report I had been working on.

"You ok?" Blake asked from the other side of the desk.

"Fine" I barked. I took a deep breathe. "I'm sorry. I think I'm just tired." I said much calmer.

She nodded in understanding and then glanced at the clock.

"why don't you just head home. It's almost six anyway, Go get some rest."

I looked at her as she sat at her desk.
