   Summary

   The moment leading up to the kiss, the drumroll, is as good as the kiss itself. It's certainly more innocent. It's completely harmless.
   You're his old partner, he was already married. It couldn't happen. Now you're back in the BAU and he's in a relationship. It can't happen.
   Can it?
