It was the happiest day in Derek Morgan's life. Why was it the happiest day in his life, you ask? Well that's because today he was finally going to marry the love of his life, Emily Prentiss. He couldn't believe he'd come so far in just a year. Before he and Emily started dting he would never commit to a woman. He might go out with them for a bit, but then he'd leave. All that changed when he went on his first date with Emily.

The evening had gone well and he was dropping Emily off at her place.

"I had a nice time tonight, thanks, Derek," she said giving him a bright smile.

"I had a nice time as well," he replied leaning towards her. Knowing what was coming next, Emily let her eyes drift shut as his warm hand cupped her cheek. Their lips met in a sweet kiss that took both their breath away. Pulling back, Derek stared at her wide-eyed. He'd never felt like he felt now after just one kiss.

"Wow," he breathed.

"My thoughts exctly," she agreed. After one more kiss that was just as powerful as the first one, Derek turned and headed home knowing that his life would never be the same again.

He was right, he mused as he stood at the front of the church waiting on his bride.

"What are you thinking so hard about, Morgan?" Hotch prompted from beside him.

"Just that I'm a lucky man."

"Someone finally tamed the untamable Derek Morgan," the unit chief quipped.

"That she did, and I wouldn't have it any other way." Derek's voice trailed off as he caught sight of Emily heading down the aisle towards him. A vision in white that he was proud to call his. Love made a man do funny things including surrendering to the spell of a woman.

Finished!

A/n, I really don't like this, but it's what came out. I hope you like it.
