Kiss #3

It had just happened. They were sitting on her couch, sharing a bottle of wine, talking, laughing, having a great time when the atmosphere around them disappeared and their lips came together. But almost as soon as it happened, it ended. He had gotten a call…a booty call. Kiss #1-Sayonara! They both had sat there awkwardly, staring at her coffee table when he ended the call. Just as he was about to say something, she also started talking, so they both shut up. Another 2 minutes of awkwardness consumed the apartment.

"Listen," She started, "it's getting pretty late and we have work in the morning."

"Umm, yeah. Yeah. You're, right. I should get going." He slowly agreed.

"I'll walk you to the door."

"Sure."

They had stood up and walked towards her door, and he had turned around to hug her goodbye but the door closing was all the goodbye he got.

3 weeks, 6 days, and 2 ignored calls later, they found themselves in her office with the lights turned off, kissing fiercely when Hotch walked in. Kiss #2 was ruined. She had gotten mad and yelled at him for "taking advantage of her"; he got pissed because she "didn't lock the damn door!"

1 month, 2 days, 3 hours, and 48 minutes later, their lips met again in a gentle, tender kiss. They were on vacation with phones turned off, doors locked, and no interruptions there to greet them. Penelope and Derek had finally shared their best "first kiss".

The End

A/N: Tacky and fluffy, I know. But I'm trying to break through the barrier my mind has created entitled, "Writer's Block". Reviews would help destroy the barrier!!! =D
