The Man With The Secret

Chapter 74

{JJ's POV}

Derek drove us all home and Emily sat up front leaving me, Blake and Garcia in the back. We all turned all our sound on our phones and started texting. We put each other in a group message so it would be easier. "Why did Emily grab your arm?" Blake texted "I have no clue. Maybe she just got jealous but their was nothing to get jealous about! I was talking to Derek about getting something FOR EMILY." I texted back "I don't know JJ unless she thought it was more then that." Garcia texted "Nothing is or nothing will happened between me and Derek. For God sake I'm engaged!" I texted "I know JJ but maybe she thought it was more then a smirk. We know it wasn't but she might have." Blake text "I already recked one friendship. I don't need to add another one to the list." I text as we pull up in the drive way "Would you guys like to come in?" I asked to everyone "Derek and I have to get home sorry." Emily says. In a way I knew she would say that so that's why I invited the girls "I'm free." Blake says "Same here." Garcia says getting out with me. Derek and Emily switched cars since we drove mine and Reid drove Morgan's. "Bye." I say to Emily. She just looked at me. Didn't say a word. I just looked at the girls and let out a deep sigh as they left. "Time to see my wild boys." I tease unlocking the door "Reid?!" I say looking at Reid and the kids dressed in super hero costumes and jumping on the couch "JJ! It- it's not what it looks like!" He says getting down off the couch "It's exactly what it looks like! You played super heroes without me!" I say picking up a laser wand and striking Reid on the side "Owe!" He says then strikes me on the side of my thigh "Owe!!" I says "Owe!" He mocks "Oh that's it!" I say hitting him with the laser over and over until we're chasing each other around the house "Why do I get the feeling this is what they do when we're not here?" Blake says "Hi Ya!" I say hitting Reid in the bend of his knee making him fall and us laugh "They do that upstairs too." Henry says to the girls "Henry!" I say "Sorry mommy!" He says as he runs off to Reid

{Blake's POV}

"They do that upstairs." I say smiling at JJ as she walks over to us "He meant the laughing part." JJ says "Na uh!" Henry says "Henry why don't you, daddy and Mason get out of your super hero cloths." JJ says "ok." He says "But I don't wanna!" Reid says "Reid. Don't make me do you like I do the kids." JJ says "No." Reid says "Henry go a head and take those off. Daddy is in trouble." She says "Oohhh you're getting grounded!!" Henry says smiling and running up the stairs "Yes he is." JJ says taking the laser from him "Listen to me." She says walking up to him and striking the laser on his back "Ah!" He says "Shh." JJ says "You are in so much trouble." She says "Ok JJ you know we're still here right?" Garcia says making me smile "Ha ha!" Reid says getting loose and running upstairs laughing "So anyways!" JJ says "Wait what were we talking about?" I asked "Emily and why she's jealous of JJ." Garcia says "Oh right." JJ says

{JJ's POV}

"You know you guys can sit right." I say smiling as they sit by me on the couch "So... Any ideas." "I honestly don't know JJ." Garcia says "Maybe it's just best to go talk to her." I say trying to to admit it "I think it would be the best." Blake and Garcia say "Do I just go over there or do I call or do I get Derek to ask her to call me what do I do?!" I say "JJ jeez it's like you got a crush on her calm down." Garcia says "I did... Once." I say softly "You used to like Emily?" Blake asked in surprise but didn't want to be rude "When we met yeah but that was a long time ago ok I don't need it getting drudged back up so leave it alone please." I say "JJ look it's ok please calm down." Garcia says "This stays between us." I say softly "Ok." Blake and Garcia says "Thank you." I say cracking a smile. I can't believe I had a 'crush' on Emily back then. She was just so innocent. "That was in the past. I don't feel that way anymore." I tell myself without saying it aloud. Emily was always a friend nothing more nothing less. I just can't help but wonder what could of happened.
