My heart is yours

Chapter 2: Cigarettes

...

At the end of the day Emily was putting her things away in her desk drawer, while Elle was sitting in Emily's chair watching her put things away.

— Prentiss come on!

— Wait a minute!

Emily sighed irritably as she went back to tidying up her desk, she didn't like to leave work with her desk in disarray, her mother always demanded a lot from her, especially organization and that little by little became a habit for Emily.

— Let's go, momma!

Emily stared at her, Elle looking like a kid who's been waiting all week to go to the amusement park.

— Why are you so excited to drink on a Monday?

— I just had a good weekend

Emily studied Elle, watching her expression and like a good profil she noticed the signs of Elle that she was too relaxed and distracted to disguise her expressions.  Emily soon realized why Elle was so eager to go to the pub.

— Girl or Boy?

Elle looked at Emily already knowing what Emily was referring to.

— Boy, and Emily he is The boy!

— Where did you find him?

— At the bar girl!

— Oh you little bitch! You call we just to have an excuse to see him!

— Finely you understand momma!

Emily laughed softly before patting Elle's thigh twice as she rose and the two began to walk side by side towards the elevator, they went down together with Gideon who spoke briefly with them before heading to their cars, while the two followed to Emily's car. They listened to music on the ten minute drive to the bar, Elle talking about the guy who spent the weekend with her while Emily just listened and drove. In minutes they got out of the car.

— Derek is here with Penelope and Reid.

Elle said as the two walked into the bar, the music starting to overwhelm their conversation.

— And JJ?

— She send me a message, she come in twenty minutes! She decided to take a taxi.

— Okay!

In a few minutes, the trio ( Derek, Emily and Elle) was drinking beer, Penelope had a sex on the beach and Reid had a water.  While Penelope spoke of internal FBI gossip, Elle and Morgan laughed and talked with her while Emily was quiet, sometimes talking with Reid about Doctor Who or science experiments. After about fifteen minutes, Emily took a pack of cigarettes and lighter out of her bag, she raised her hand catching the attention of her friends who stopped the conversation to observe her.

— I'm going outside!

She said, they were used to Emily smoking, she didn't smoke compulsively so they weren't worried, they knew she would smoke less than twice a day and there were days when she didn't even smoke.
