the girl beside me - jemily

six.

- j j ' s   p o v - 

I woke up, Emily's arms still around me. I looked up at her.

"Good morning..." I said sleepily. It took me a minute to realize that she hadn't even woken up yet. My head was buzzing with thoughts. Like first of all, how does someone look so perfect before they even  wake up?

I looked back up at her, and gave her a small kiss on the cheek. My stomach was filled with butterflies as I slowly got up from her arms.

As I was walking over to my closet, I heard a voice. "You're a profiler. You should be able to know if someone's really awake."

My head shot up, and I could feel the blood rushing to my cheeks. I slowly turned around and saw Emily, sitting up on the bed. 

"I'm sorry-" I started.

She stood up, tossing the comforter back. As she walked by, she flashed me a smile for few seconds, before walking over to the kitchen. 

I watched her, a smile already on my face. I couldn't believe it. I turned back around, still blushing, and picked out a gray blouse. 

But I couldn't help but think. She doesn't feel the same way, does she... I rubbed my forehead. Did I freak her out?

I walked over into the kitchen once I was dressed, and Emily was there, making cereal. 

"Want some?" She asked. I looked up at her. "Sure!" I watched as she poured the milk into the bowl before sliding it to me. 

"I'm sorry if I.. creeped you out or something." I tilted my head slightly, picking up the spoon.

"It's perfectly fine." Emily turned, putting the box back in the cupboard. "I don't mind." A small smile formed on my face, glad that things were still good between us.

I closed the cupboard, thinking. She thought I was creeped out? How can someone be so clueless...

I turned back around, leaning on the counter as I ate my cereal. "Have they found anything on the unsub?" JJ's voice startled me. 

I was kind of glad to be talking about work again.

"I don't even know, Hotch won't tell me anything." It wasn't a lie, I was totally in the dark about the whole situation.

Hearing a knock on the front door, the both of our heads turned. "I didn't know Hotch was coming." 

JJ looked at me, terrified. "He's the only one with the address, and he's not coming today."
