Emily keeps avoiding me. She's been doing it since we left the crime scene. Maybe I'll ask her out when we get back.
Luckily this case went by fast.
I sit down on the plane by myself hoping Emily will sit next to me. But instead she sits as far away from me as she can with Gideon. I don't know if Gideon has really warmed up to her yet. That may be a misarable ride for her. Everyone was still getting over Elle leaving when she came. But it's not soon before her and Gideon are chatting. And I can tell Gideon doesn't mind it. I think he's starting to warm up to her.
We finally land at 12:30 am. I stand up and turn to walk out but Prentiss is already gone. Why is she avoiding me? I get off and try looking for her without letting on to anyone. I finally see her at her desk. She looks like she's getting ready to leave for the night. Garcia's already gone home, Reid and JJ left as soon as they could and Hotch and Gideon are already in their offices. The bullpen is empty.
"Hey Prentiss wanna go grab a coffee. Wind down a bit?" I ask. She drops a file she was holding in her hands.
"Oh um...no thanks Morgan. Coffee wakes me up and um I'm really tired so um maybe some other time." She says really fast as she grabs her things and tries to push past me. I grab her arms so she can't wall by me.
"Emily come on what's up? You've been acting weird around me since we left that crime scene yesterday." She sighs and looks around the bullpen. "Emily."
"Can you just stop calling me that okay!" She says pushing past me this time.
"What?!" I say following after her. She turns around after she walked through texts glass doors. Now no one can hear us.
"Look Morgan, I'm not that kinda girl so just treat me like you would any other agent!" She yells as the tears roll down her face.
"Woah Emily what are talking about!"
"You're with Garcia and now you're asking me out! Morgan come on! You didn't ask anyone else! It would have made more sense to ask JJ as friends cause you've known her longer. Look I just can't be with you." She says as she turns for the elevator.
She thinks I'm with Penelope?!?! Crap!!!!
"Emily wait!!"
"It's Prentiss!!" She yells back.
"I'm not with Penelope!!" She pauses and looks at me.
"I've heard you talk with her. 'Babygirl' 'Chocolate Thunder' I could go on for hours!"
"Oh Emily, we're just friends I swear. You can even ask her. Really. My relationship with her is just friendly. Really I promise." She wipes her tears and looks at me.
"So you wanna go out with me?" She says so quietly I almost didn't hear her.
"Yes Emily. I want to go on a date with you." She smiles and wraps her arms around my neck and pulls me in for a hug. I hug her back. She works her head up ton my ear and then wispers,
"Yes." I smile and drop my hands to her waist.
"Well then let's go." I say
She smiles as we walk out of the BAU...together.
