It had been one night and one full day and Emily was making dinner in the kitchen. The thoughts of JJ had left her for the time being but the whole night before she hadn't been able to keep them quiet.

"That smells so good." JJ said walking into the kitchen.

"It's just homemade mac and cheese." Emily laughed. JJ loved everything Emily made because she never cooked and so when Emily did it was special.

"Oo sounds good. I'll grab some plates." She said reaching up to the cuboard. As her hand reached the top shelf she felt a sharp pain in her shoulder and gasped; which Emily took notice of.

"Hey there," she turned away from the stove, "are you alright?" She said in a concerned tone and walked up to the blonde.

"Yeah I'm fine I just hurt myself earlier." She said pointing. JJ was wearing a tank top so it was easy for Emily to see what she was talking about. On the front of her shoulder where her arm met she had a pretty big bruise.

"What did you do JJ. This is huge." Emily laughed.

"I banged it on the door frame. I don't even know how." That was the truth but there was a detail JJ left out. She banged it on the door because she had been looking at Emily instead of watching where she was going.

"You're a clutz. Okay I think this is done." She said turning her attention back to the stove.

The two were on the couch and eating. They had a movie playing but neither was listening to it.

"How did slam into a door frame." Emily had been laughing and teasing her about how clumsy she was.

"I told you I have no idea." She laughed. "It hurt too." She pretended to pout and rubbed her shoulder.

"Aweee muffin." Emily teased again. They both had there backs to either arm of the couch and were facing eachother with both there legs in the middle. JJ gave Emily's leg a kick.

"Shutup." She smiled.

"Alright alright." She put her hands up in defense. "Here I'll take these back to the sink." Emily said standing up and grabbing JJ's empty plate as JJ took a sip of water.

"Thanks." She said as Emily walked into the kitchen.

Once Emily made her way back to the couch JJ was watching the movie more intently. She walked up behind JJ and grabbed her by the shoulders. Which caused JJ to jump.

"Haha got you." Emily teased and jumped over the back of the couch.

"Is it 'Be Mean To JJ Day.'" JJ said and smacked Emily on the arm.

"Awe I'm sorry blackbird." Emily kissed JJ on the cheek which the blonde moved closer to help her reach. "I'm only joking." Suddenly, JJ's phone started to ring.

"One sec its Garcia." JJ said answering and putting it on speaker.

"Hey Garcia you're on speaker."

"Hey my little lovebirds!"

"Garcia I told you to stop calling us that." Emily said sternly but Garcia could still hear the smile playing on Emily's lips.

"So did I." JJ said in the same way to Emily.

"She calls us that to you two?" Emily laughed and pointed at herself and JJ.

"I do indeed!" Garcia chimed in. "And I am not going to be stopping any time soon. Anyway, I'm just calling to see how you are doing!"

"We are doing good." Emily said.

"Yeah except this one over here keeps abusing me." JJ laughed and elbowed Emily.

"Yeah well this one is a clutz." Emily elbowed back.

"It was one bruise!" JJ laughed and yelled at the same time as she stook out a finger.

"Getting a little sick of eachother are we?" Garcia laughed but she also sounded serious. JJ sighed and smiled before speaking.

"No I still love her." She elbowed her again but it was more of a soft nudge.

"Yeah we'll be fine." Emily smiled too and rested her head on JJ's shoulder.

"Oh my god you guys are so cute I wish you were a real couple." Garcia joked. It was funny because Garcia had no idea that Emily was in fact gay and JJ was something she wasn't sure of yet. The two just smiled at eachother but it lasted longer than a regular glance and Garcia had to talk a again to get their attention.

"Um hello are you still there?" She asked.

"Uh yeah." JJ said snapping out of it but Emily still watched her out of the corner of her eye. Garcia smiled to herself because she could only imagine what had happened in that long pause. That was the moment when Garcia started to ship her friends, something she didn't tell them, or anyone.

"Okay PG is their anything else." Emily asked.

"Yeah we got a lead on the case so you two might be out of there soon."

"A suspect?" Emily asked.

"Yeah."

"Garcia send me a picture to my laptop." JJ said pulling the object into her lap.

"Will do." The two could hear Garcia typing away. As JJ opened her laptop she got a Notification from Garcia. She clicked on the tab and was surprised at what she saw, as was Emily.

"We saw that guy at the park the other day and he was watching us." Emily said.

"He didn't see where you guys went did he?" Garcia said cautiously.

"No I don't think so and our building has security." JJ added.

"Alright well Hotch is on his way to bring him for questioning but we might be able to get an arrest warrent now. Thanks guys I gotta go." Penelope hung up.

"Gotta admit I was kind of enjoying our fake life" JJ laughed. "No work and nobody else other than my best friend." She added.

"Agreed." Emily said standing up.

"Wanna go to bed early." She sighed.

"Sure." JJ said and grabbed the Brunettes hand. The two walked hand in hand until they reached the bedroom. JJ took one if Emily's T shirts to wear to bed.

"Why is it your always stealing my clothes." Emily joked.

"Because they smell good." She said taking her shirt off. Emily couldn't help but look. The thoughts from last night came back and she almost considered acting on them; but didn't. JJ pulled the other shirt on and so Emily went to grab her clothes. She took a grey tank top and pajama shorts and put them on. JJ wore similar shorts as well; it was hot in the house tonight.

They were both laying on top of the duvet. Emily was laying on her back and JJ was on her stomach with her head on Emily's chest and her hand on the brunettes stomach. Emily had her hand in JJ's hair and was playing with while they talked. Emily's sweet scent radiated JJ's senses and the touch of her hand on Emily's stomach comforted the brunette.

"So... do you think we'll be headed home tomorrow?" Emily asked looking down at the blonde.

"I don't know. I don't wanna think about it." JJ sighed heavily.

"Being a fake couple is pretty fun." Emily laughed.

"This is gonna sound crazy," JJ paused for a moment, "but have you ever thought of what it would be like of we were a real couple?" JJ said. She didn't move an inch as she waited for Emily's answer.

"Yeah I have actually." Emily said continuing to play with JJ's hair.

"Good, I'm not the only one." JJ sighed. The topic wasn't spoken about anymore but Emily was happy knowing JJ noticed their chemistry too. She knew their might be a chance.
