Emily is obsessed with touching you any chance she gets.
It's surprising, really, the way she starts clinging to you when she finally feels like she's allowed to. When you're at hers, she keeps a hand on your hip while you cook dinner, she likes laying on the couch with you on top of her as you watch some random reality show. Emily keeps her face pressed into your neck, breathing you in, whenever she can.
And it's good. God, it's great. You want it all the time, you love how much she enjoys it, how close she keeps you. There's only one problem.
You want her. Constantly. And it seems like every time you try to move on to something more, she retreats. She kisses your cheek, your forehead, ending the makeout session as soon as it starts.
You don't push, you haven't been going out that long, anyway, and maybe she's still uncomfortable. Maybe you thought sheâd be fine with it earlier because you were friends before, yet that might be the reason she's still uncertain, you're not sure. Although trying not to take it to heart is hard, especially when it seems like she doesn't want you as much as you want her, and you don't know if that's because she doesn't see you as her equal.
Being younger than her never really mattered to you. Ever since you started at the BAU you thought she was beautiful, attractive, sure, but she treated you like a colleague worthy of respect, even as her subordinate. Emily never made you feel like you were less than her or your teammates, which is why you never really thought about her age or yours as anything of a problem.
Perhaps you were wrong and she sees yours as a problem.
But there are moments in which you can't believe these conclusions. There are moments, when you're having dinner or just talking on a rare free night, that she looks at you and you can swear she wants you, too. At this point, anything could be true. You enjoy spending time with her, you care about her, and this one thing won't put you off a relationship that you believe can be really good, for the both of you. But this liminal stage ends up confusing you anyway.
Sometimes, your frustration gets the best of you.
You're on her couch, after dinner on a night when you're mercifully still in town. Emily never kisses like she doesn't mean it. She grips your hair and holds your jaw with her other hand, she tilts your chin slightly lower so she can get her tongue into your mouth. Emily sucks on your bottom lip like she's starved for it, then dives back in, leisurely feeling as you open up for her.
Scratching the back of your neck, she lets out a surprised sound when you pull her closer by the cheeks. When you get a leg thrown over her lap, though, she lays a hand on it softly, touching your thigh as if she's afraid you might break. Emily slows the kiss, kisses your chin, then your cheek, and still, with her lips swollen and cheeks red from effort, she smiles like nothing's happened.
âWe should watch a movie,â she says, reaching over for the remote. You grip her arm, not letting her get away that easily.
âYou're kidding me, right?â
Emily frowns, seemingly genuinely confused â if you weren't so frustrated you might've even found it cute. âI don't know what you mean.â
You chuckle humorlessly, resigned. This is fine. It's just something you'll have to get over. âNever mind,â you say, bringing your leg back from where it still rested over her, almost managing to stand up before she touches your hand.
âWhat's happening?â She asks, so lost that you actually feel bad. Seriously, what is she doing to you? âDid I do something?â
âNo,â you sigh, âit's me. Pick a movie, I'll be right back.â
Emily's still frowning, but you get up, turning away from those sorry eyes. You can't help but feel bad that you put that look on her face when she hasn't done anything to earn it.
In the bathroom, you throw some water on your face. Chuckling ironically at yourself because the feel of the lace lingerie you have on is starting to annoy you. Lately, you've been choosing aesthetics over practicality with your underwear, just in case. Apparently, it was futile.
Reaching under your shirt, you remove your bra, tired of the uncomfortableness it brings. In a t-shirt of Emily's, you can barely tell you're not wearing it, anyway. Since you came straight from work, all you have is your laptop bag, not even pajamas in it, so she's lended you some. You figured you'd keep the lingerie on, again, just in case. Deciding it doesn't really matter, now, you get out of the bathroom and throw it in your bag, cursing the fact that you can't do the same with the bottom piece currently digging into your hips.
Back in the living room, Emily is sitting in silence. She's got a silk set on, some button-up shirt and pants that feel as soft as they look. You like seeing her this casual, comfortable at home, with you. Knowing you should focus on that, you smile at her when you sit back on the couch, your arms touching so she knows you're not upset.
âI couldn't choose,â she says in a low voice, sounding oh-so-dejected, pointing at the television.
Okay, does she have to make it this hard?
âIâm sorry, Em, I was just⊠upset about something else.â You try, touching her shoulder, letting her silver hair slip through your fingers. âI didn't mean to take it out on you.â
Emily shakes her head, a soft, yet genuine, smile on her face. âDon't worry about it.â
Biting your lip, you nod, still unsure but deciding to take her word for it. âThere's a new thriller I thought you might like,â you change the subject, taking the remote from her hand and delighting in the fact that she snuggles up against you, her head on your shoulder, one of her arms around yours.
This is fine. This can be enough.
In bed, Emily has a terrible habit of scrolling through her work e-mails before you turn the lights off.
It usually ends in her getting annoyed at something or someone. She sighs, mutters about how she needs to stop looking at her phone before bed, then does it again then next night.
Tonight's no different. The only different thing is you're sitting next to her, leaning back against the headboard and reading a book, one you've read a thousand times. More passing your eyes over the words than actually absorbing them.
Emily huffs, takes off her glasses, places her phone on the nightstand, screen turned down. She turns on her side, still half propped up by pillows, and scoots closer. Her arm finds your waist, her head leaves the pillow to rest on your shoulder.
âRead it out loud?â She asks, her voice muffled against your skin.
You don't add anything, only start reading to her from the top of the page. You know she's not asking to know the story, she just wants to hear your voice.
âAs the king made no answer, the little prince hesitated a moment. Then, with a sigh, he took his leave. // âI make you my Ambassador,â the king called out, hastily. // He had a magnificent air of authorityâŠâ
The cold tip of Emily's nose touches your skin where your shirtâs moved a little. She presses it closer, breathes you in. Leaves a featherlight kiss on your shoulder.
You close the book harshly in the middle of a sentence.
âYou must be tired,â you say, placing Le Petit Prince on the nightstand. âWe should get some sleep.â
Emily frowns, âyou're acting weird.â
You look away to turn off the lamp. She catches your hand.
âTalk to me.â She asks, her voice so syrupy as it usually is this time of night. âPlease?â
Taking a deep breath, you buy some time. Not nearly enough.
âDid I do something?â She asks again, crestfallen now. Your chest physically hurts.
âNo, you didn't do anything.â Taking her hand, you lace your fingers together. âI mean it, Emily. This is my issue, I'll get over it soon.â
Frowning, âIâd like to help.â
You shake your head, kiss her cheek. âI think,â you whisper, âno, I know, you're the best thing that's happened to me in a long time.â
Emily only looks at you, eyes big and searching. Her profiler skills working at full speed and, still, she can't figure you out.
âI don't want to ruin it,â you finish. Squeeze her hand for good measure, to let her know you're there.
âI'm so confused,â Emily says, sitting up properly. âWhy won't you tell me what's wrong?!â
âWhy won't you have sex with me?!â
Alright, blurting it out was not how you wanted to do this.
You close your eyes, cheeks flaming. âForget I just said that.â
When you look up, Emily looks⊠stunned. Her lips are softly parted and her eyes are wider than usual. Too bad you really want to kiss her.
âLet's go to sleep.â Imploring now, you try to pull your hand away. She doesn't let you.
âI'm sorry-â She starts, but you interrupt her.
âNo! I'm sorry. I didn't mean to say it like that, I was-â
Emily shuts you up with a kiss. Pressing your lips together, she holds your face in place as she kisses you. She doesn't deepen it, but she lingers, then softens.
âStop talking,â she murmurs against your lips. âPlease.â
You nod, pressing your lips together.
âI'm sorry. I didn't realize this was weighing on you.â Her voice is collected, like she sounds in the conference room. You want to shake her, tell her to yell or show that this is affecting her, too. âI never wanted to make you feel unwanted.â
âI don't-â You interrupt yourself before she can because, really, what can you say to that?
âI do want to have sex with you,â she says, calmly, but there's a light rubor to her cheeks, like it's hard for her to say it.
âThen- Why? Do you think it's too early? We've known each other for over a year.â
Emily nods, moving the hands that were resting on your shoulders to grip your own hands. âI don't think it's too early, IâŠâ She shakes her head. âI don't know how to explain it.â
âEmily,â you say, finding that you really want to get that disheartened look off her face more than you want an explanation. Trying to convey in your tone what you feel about her. âYou don't have to explain anything. Weâll do it when you're ready. If you're never ready, we'll never do it.â
âSimple as that?â She asks, slightly incredulously.
You shrug, âsimple as that. I just wanted to know why, but that doesn't matter.â
Emily smiles, a small thing that you might've missed if you weren't paying attention. âYou're so young,â she starts, confusing you again. It must show on your face because she quickly continues. âI'm not. And I don't look like I did at thirty anymore, or even forty. And maybe you should be with someone like that.â
Scoffing, you can't believe what she's saying. âYou think I want to be with anyone else? I've been crawling up the walls because you won't touch me!â
Emily shakes her head negatively, âI believe you. When you say you want me, I can trust it. But I don't think you should.â
You cross your arms, dislodging her hands from yours. âThat's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.â
She opens her mouth to protest, but nothing really comes out.
âI don't care that you don't look like a wax figure. Do you care that my stomach isn't perfectly toned? Or that I have acne scars on my back? Cellulite?!â
âOf course not, but-â
âEmily!â You interrupt her. âI love you. God, why is that so hard for you to understand?â
She blinks. Silence engulfs the room.
âI was gonna wait, because we've only been together a month or whatever⊠But we've been friends for so long, and fuck it, it's out there now.â Holding her face between your hands, you bring it close to yours. âI love you. And I want you like I've never wanted anyone in my life.â
âI love you,â she whispers back. But you don't have time to react before Emily kisses you, holding you in place by the shoulders, forcefully pressing your lips together like a woman starved.
Moving a hand over her side, she grips it before you can leave it there, holding it in her lap and pulling back from the kiss. Emily touches her forehead to yours, breathing hard with her eyes closed.
âSorry, I-â She gasps out. âI didn't think it'd be this hard.â
You nod, placing a comforting kiss to the side of her mouth. Pushing her softly against the pillows, you lean over her a little, but not enough to completely cover her body. Trying your best not to be overwhelming, you look all over her face, taking note of her breath coming in hard pants and her hands clenched in the fabric of your shirt.
âEmily.â
She opens her eyes, not realizing she'd even closed them in the first place. They're wide, searching your expression.
âTake a deep breath,â you suggest, touching your cheek to hers when she does so. âAgain.â Matching her breaths, you keep her under you for a moment, hoping she can finally relax. âI'm going to tell you exactly what I'm going to do, and if you need me to stop, tell me, alright?â
Lifting your head, you lock eyes. Emily nods, pressing her lips together and managing to keep her breathing normally paced.
âI'm going to kiss you, now.â
And you do exactly that.
At least this is familiar territory. Emily quickly melts into you, her mouth welcoming your tongue in a practised move. You don't touch her anywhere else, only keep one of her hands in yours, the other resting by her head on the mattress. She lets out a small sound of approval, her neck lifting to get closer, head tilting for the best fit.
When she comes up for air, you lower your face into her neck. âHere,â you whisper. âOkay?â
Emily hums a consent. You kiss below her ear, slow and wet, enjoying the taste of her skin in the way she hadn't let you before. You've been dreaming about this for weeks, months, and the reality of it is better than you expected.
Placing kisses down her neck, you reach the base of it, right where it meets the skin of her shoulder. A particularly hard kiss there leaves a slightly red flush in the shape of your mouth. Emily gasps above you, her free hand moving to grip your shoulder. You let her hold onto you, let her feel the assurance of your body over hers.
You take your time exploring her skin. The exposed area of her chest glistens and flushes where you've kept your lips on it, enjoying the taste and the way she shudders, her back unclenching, lowering back onto her soft sheets.
âCan I take your shirt off?â
Not even having dared to undo a button, you wait for her approval. Emily looks up at you, an ethereal vision with her cheeks red and her lip swollen where she bit it to contain her own whimpers. She doesn't say anything, so you move your hands to your (her) own shirt, slowly lifting it off yourself. For a second, you'd forgotten you'd taken your bra off in the bathroom, but the chill in the room quickly reminds you of it.
Emily looks at you intently, her eyes mapping every bit of exposed skin. She licks her lips, placing her hands on your waist and squeezing softly. You nod at her encouragingly.
Dragging her hands up, she keeps her palms under your chest, not going further. You feel your skin heat up at the attention, but don't move to cover yourself, letting her look as much as she wants to.
Emily looks into your eyes again, "take it off.â
You don't waste any time. Swiftly opening the buttons on her silk shirt, you lower your head to breathe in every amount of skin that is gradually shown. When it's completely open, you kiss her sternum, the valley between her breasts, her stomach, but you don't move to push it off her body. Slowly, you taste every bit that's uncovered, feeling as Emily's hips move on their own accord, lifting up from the bed ever so slightly, a sight that you'll soon learn means she's aroused.
Getting your arms under her back, you pull her up, touching your uncovered chest to hers. âI'm going to take it off, now.â
Everything is said in your lowest tone, as if you're trying not to spook a scared stray. When Emily nods, you finally rid her of her shirt, throwing it somewhere on the floor and not caring to look. There is a much more interesting view right in front of you.
She lies back down, her eyes locked on yours, her hands gripping you at the height of your ribs. You move down with her, trying to stifle a smile but losing the battle, kissing her chest so she can't feel embarrassed.
âYou're perfect,â you murmur against her skin, causing her to shiver at the warmth in your voice. Keeping your promise, you continue, âI'm going to taste you, now.â
Taking a nipple into your mouth, you smile around it when she whines. Sucking slightly, the sounds she lets out spur you on. This is so, so much better than you could've imagined. Emily moans when you move to her other breast, the cool air causing even stronger shivers on her wet skin.
After a while, when Emily's breathing is labored for an entirely different reason, you bring your face up to meet hers. You can never get enough of the way she kisses, so you ask for it again. A thumb on her chin, pressing it down to guide her jaw, loving the way she relinquishes her body to yours. Your tongues meet heatedly, and you moan at how she tastes, yet again. She groans in the back of her throat, gripping your hair strands and keeping you exactly where she wants you.
You touch her chest, taking care of it with your hands this time as she kisses you oh-so-sweetly, in that way only she can.
Coming up for air, you smile at the expression on her face, dazed and relaxed, at last. Surprisingly, Emily smiles back, a small tilt of her lips but a smile nonetheless.
âCan I take your pants off?â
She nods, running fingers through your hair to move it away from your face. Twisting it onto a low ponytail to keep it there, she runs her hands down your bare back, then your chest, mapping your body with her fingertips as best as she can reach.
You remove her pajama pants, leaving her underwear on for now. Closing your eyes, you try to center yourself. She's everything and she really has no idea.
âI really didn't plan for this,â Emily murmurs, pulling you back to the moment. She's gesturing at her underwear, you notice, a simple, black cotton pair.
âIt's perfect.â
Standing up, you take off your, also borrowed, sleep shorts. Emily lifts her eyebrows at the sight of your lace bottoms.
You smile, âjust in case.â
Emily, mercifully, laughs. A loud, free thing that settles your worry.
âYou can stop narrating now,â she says, pulling on your hand so you straddle her hips.
âYou sure?â
She nods, pulling on the back of your neck to kiss you.
As you kiss, you feel her hips bucking up into yours. Your hands find her body again, relearning every curve that you, for a while, thought you'd never get to see. Finding the edge of her underwear, you only look at her, waiting for a sign of discouragement. Emily only nods.
âFucking hell,â you whisper unconsciously after finally, finally, getting her naked. âI've been wanting to do this for months.â
Emily lifts an eyebrow, âmonths?â
You hum in agreement, growing more speechless by the second. Kneeling between her thighs, you stare at her unabashedly, earning an impatient look from Emily, who clears her throat. âSorry,â you grin up at her, delicately lifting one of her legs onto your shoulder. Emily closes her eyes as her cheeks heat up.
âYou're perfect.â It feels like you can't say anything else. You desperately want her to understand that you've never meant anything more than this. âFuck, Emily, you're stunning.â
She opens her eyes, looking away quickly when she notes the flame in yours, her face turned to the ceiling. You let her have it, not wanting her to be uncomfortable, and start kissing the inside of her thigh where it's resting near your face.
Her skin erupts in goosebumps. You can smell her so strongly from where you lay, your mouth starts salivating almost immediately.
In the end, you don't know if you taste her more for her pleasure or yours. Every minute that passes with your head between Emily's thighs, you feel yourself get more and more aroused. You know you're just about to become addicted to her, you'll want to do this every hour or every day and it's gonna be so hard to not jump her every morning in the office.
The sounds she lets out are a spectacle apart. Her throat raw from moaning, the whimpers and gasps that she produces every time you find just the right spot. Every time that deliciously raspy voice hits your ears it spurs you on, when she calls please! into the ceiling, when she keens as you slip a finger into her.
Two fingers pulling forward, your mouth sucking precisely on her clit â you learn that's the perfect recipe. Emily cries out, telling you not to stop, telling you it's exactly right, and just like that, don't stop, fuck.
There's barely a breathy, broken, âbaby, I'm so closeâ before she comes into your mouth. Her thighs shake and her hips try shooting up as you hold her down, keeping her close and still with your tongue on her, tasting as she comes down. Her back arches in the most stunning arch and you want to do it all over again, keep doing it, all night, all week, if she'll let you.
When she pulls your face away, gripping your hair strands and trying to stop you, you whine at the separation.
Once you're face to face again, you pout jokingly at her. âI was enjoying that.â
Emily smiles, âyes, well, I need a minute.â
She brings you in for a kiss, groaning as she tastes herself on your tongue. You feel the wetness on your chin passing onto her face, your kiss messy in the best way possible. Emily nips on your bottom lip, then beams at you.
âI don't know why I was so worried.â
You shrug, âI don't know, either.â But your eyes soften in understanding. A kiss on her cheek to tell her you've got her.
âYour turn?â She asks, grabbing your hips with her hands already under the waistband of the lace. Emily keeps them there, giving you the same time you gave her. It's sweet, even if you've told her you were crawling up the walls, and that she can probably feel the damp spot on her thigh from where you straddle her.
âI'm not done yet.â
Getting up again, you remove your underwear, then sit down next to her and pat your lap playfully. Emily rolls her eyes, but complies, straddling your own legs this time.
Gently moving her legs where you want them, you get one thigh over hers, the other under, and she swiftly adjusts herself when she gets your intention. She keeps herself lifted, not resting her weight onto you yet, leaning down to touch her forehead to yours, more easily as you're slightly propped up against the headboard.
You hold her hips firmly, guiding her down to bring your centers together. Emily closes her eyes, shivering.
Kissing below her ear, you whisper, âride me?â
Emily sighs next to your face, hiding hers in your neck. âI'm not twenty anymore.â
âThat doesn't mean anything,â you say, taking her earlobe between your teeth and enjoying the way she shudders. âI'll guide you, hm?â
She doesn't say anything, but she nods, and her hips give a slight, barely there, thrust forward. You both moan in unison.
Keeping a tight grip on her hips, you encourage her to move.
It's dramatic, sure, but you feel like you've died and gone to heaven in the span of a few seconds.
Murmuring in her ear about how good she looks, how well she rides you, you delight in her needy whimpers. Emily lets out these enticing little gasps where she hides her face in your neck.
Still guiding her movements with a hand, you take another to touch her back softly, caressing the skin and feeling as beads of sweat start to form from the exertion. You don't stop praising her out loud, the vibration of your voice emboldening the undulation of her hips, and Emily grips the hand that's resting right there, a bruising hold that keeps you anchored.
It takes a little trial and error, but you find the perfect rhythm together. She lifts her head when she's getting close. Her neck strains as she approaches orgasm, you've noticed, her entire body tensing in expectation.
As her breathing gets more labored, her brows furrowing from the effort, you think you've never seen someone this beautiful, and you tell her just so. Her cheeks flame, still so unused to praise, but it still spurs her own, her thighs burning now from the merciless pace she sets. With a particular twist of her hips, she slightly moves off where you need her the most, but she looks so ruined, so gorgeous, almost reaching her peak, that you don't say anything. You have time. Now, you only grip her harder, letting her take what she needs from you.
Telling her how good she rides you, how perfect she looks above you, you watch in ecstasy as her back arches and she comes again, an almost sob of relief leaving her lips.
When she falls forward, spent, you wrap your arms around her and kiss her temple, then wherever you can reach. You whisper that you love her, she answers with a squeeze of your arm, still catching her breath.
âYou've ruined me,â she says when she finally finds her voice again.
âI did no such thing.â
Turning her face to look at you, your noses brush together. âYou probably fixed me.â
âDon't be silly,â you joke, nipping at her nose. âThere was nothing to fix.â
âHuh,â she considers, pressing your lips together sweetly, like she can't get enough. âSomehow, I almost believe that.â
You beam. That was all you really wanted.
