The Trouble With The Truth

Spilt Coffee

"Good morning pretty girl" Emily whispered before placing a kiss on my neck. A huge smile spread across my face in knowing this is how my mornings were going to like from now on.
"Good morning" i craned my neck around to kiss her.
"I wish we could stay like this all day, but" she paused as she kissed my neck again. "serial killers don't take a day off"
"Ugh" I groaned as I kicked the covers off. We both started getting ready when I realized I didn't have any clothes.
"Em, do you still have the white blouse I left
here a couple weeks ago?" I asked.
"Yeah I hung it up in the closet, I think you left a pair of pants here too.." she walked into the closet and pulled the outfit out.
"Here" she smiled. "We'll stop by your apartment after work and start moving some of your stuff in. Butterflies filled my stomach as a wide smile spread across my face.

"what?" she chuckled.

"I'm just excited is all" I threw my arms around her neck, pulling her into me.

"Mmmm" she hummed into the kiss. "Me too."

We finished getting ready for work and by then it was nearing 7:30.

"coffee?" she asked as I put my coat on.

"absolutely"

We drove to a coffee shop near Quantico and got two iced coffees.

"when do you want to tell the team?" I asked before taking a sip of my drink.

"Well, I guess we can tell them whenever you want? At least, I'm ready whenever you are."

"I'm fine with whenever. I'll let you decide when the moment seems right" I kissed her before we drove off.

As Emily and I were walking in, Rossi came up along side us.

"Have anything you care to share?" he smirked. I shot Emily a confused look.

"I told him I wanted to ask you" she admitted before glancing back at Rossi. "she said yes."

"Congratulations love birds, I'm happy for the both of you." she gave us a genuine smile.

We all got settled in and Em was in her office filing some reports. I needed some more coffee so I went over to the freshly brewed pot. Not paying much attention I turned and collided with Alex, the burning coffee spilling all over me.

"AHH" I cried as the hot coffee seeped through my shirt burning my skin.

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry, are you ok?"

Emily heard me and came rushing out of her office,

"what the hell happened" she asked concerned.

"It was an accident, neither of us were paying attention" I said. "I am however gonna need a different shirt."

"I don't have one here, I can run home if you'd like" Emily offered.

"I have an extra in my go bag. I'll grab it." Alex chimed. And before Emily could say anything I thanked Alex. It wasn't personal, I just needed a shirt and I didn't want Emily to get all fired up.

"You're gonna wear her shirt?" she raised an eyebrow at me.

"Baby, I'm wearing a coffee drenched white blouse that you can see my bra through, I just need a shirt." I kissed her cheek. "it's ok." I assured her. Just then Alex handed me a burgundy blouse.

"Thank you, I'm gonna go change"

I made it to the bathroom and began to unbutton my stained shirt and I slipped it off, setting it on the counter. As I stood there, topless, aside from my bra, Alex walked in.

"Y/n, I-" she stopped when she saw me. "Um," she struggled to find her words.

"Blake, my eyes are up here" I snapped as I quickly slipped the new blouse on and began buttoning it.

"Y/n," she started again, this time walking up to me. I didn't bother facing her, I just looked in the mirror and as I was halfway done with the buttons, Alex grabbed my wrist.

"can you just hold on a second, and look at me" she whispered.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath before turning to her.

"what" I asked sounding slightly annoyed.

"I don't know how to do this"

"do what?" I raised an eyebrow.

"be next to you and not fall more and more in-"

"stop." I snapped. "Alex, you need to go. Now."

And as if the day couldn't be off to a rougher start, Emily walked in.

"Can I help you Blake?" her eyes were on fire with rage. It was honestly kinda sexy.

"She was just leaving" I said sternly.

"But Y/n," she whispered.

"Go." I barked, and finally Blake left and Emily seared holes through her as she did.

"What the fuck was that, what in the actual fu-" I grabbed her hand and pulled her in.

"Baby, everything's ok. She just doesn't seem to understand boundaries all that well."

"Well I can definitely fix that" she sneered. This was one wound up woman.

"Emily, you don't have to worry about me, but.." I hesitated as to whether or not I should tell her what Blake said, and I realized if I didn't tell her it would come back to bite me. "I don't think Blake has any intentions of moving on." my eyes were glued to the floor.

"What do you mean" she asked with growing concern.

"Well, I think she was about to tell me she's in love with me" I whispered.

"You're not serious" she said in disbelief. "What makes you think that?"

"she said, 'I don't know how to do this' and I said 'do what' and that's when she said 'be next to you and not fall more and more in-' and that's when I cut her off." I felt ashamed even though none of this was my doing, I still felt sick.

"Un-fucking-believeable" she scoffed. "That's it. She's gone." Emily barked.

"Em.." I started.

"No, I'm not gonna have her on this team if she can't keep her eyes off of you. This in ridiculous. She obviously can't do this."

"Can you really kick her off the team for having a crush?" I asked.

"It's more than a crush at this point and yes, I'm not going to have her working next to my wife everyday, knowing she's in love with you!"

"what?" I asked as a smile began to creep across my face.

"what?" she looked at me confused.

"You just called me your wife" I smirked. She gripped my hips, pulling me in so our bodies were flush against each other.

"Well, fiance, but wife is usually the title that comes after" she whispered.

"I love it." I kissed her, "And I love you more."

"I love you too baby" she sighed. "There's no other shirt you could wear?"

"Unless we have a secret retail store I don't know about, this is what I've got."

She let out a frustrated sigh.

"That fucking shirt is coming off the second we get into the car, understand?"

"Yes, ma'am. As long as you're the one taking it off of me" I teased and she chuckled before whispering in my ear

"I'm going to be ripping it off of you, for more reasons than one" she nipped at my earlobe before giving one last kiss and walking out.

I checked my watch, counting down the hours until it was time to leave....
