Chapter 2 – Secret Revealed
Entering the bullpen, the rest of the team went silent, all eyes on Hotch and Emily as they continued to enter the bullpen. Rossi walked up to Emily and murmured into her ear.
"Garcia found the sonogram, they know your pregnant, I haven't said a word," Rossi informed Emily.
"I know, thanks Dave." Emily told him before giving him a kiss on the cheek, after that Rossi went on the shake Hotch's hand.
The rest of the team watched the as Rossi embraced both Hotch and Emily, it confirmed their suspicions, that Hotch was the father.
"Hey, umm I guess we have something to tell you but can we head out of here before we do," Emily exclaimed breaking the uncomfortable silence in the bullpen, whilst looking at her watch.
"Yeah, I'm cool with that, where should we meet?" Morgan asked.
"My place," Rossi came up from behind Aaron and Emily and informed the team, it was a logical decision his place was the biggest.
All of the team agreed and began to pack their things away, and started to head towards Rossi's house. Arriving first Emily and Hotch had brought Declan and Jack, arriving earlier than the others also gave them some time to prepare how to tell the team about their relationship and the baby.
"How about I am pregnant, Hotch is the baby daddy," Emily laughed as she offered a suggestion whilst walking around the living area hands around her bump, with both Rossi and Hotch watching her, both Declan and Jack were playing outside in the back garden.
"No!" Rossi and Hotch said in unison, with the same look of disgust on their face before laughing aloud with Emily.
"Why can't you two, just be simple and say I have been dating Hotch for the past eighteen months and I am four months pregnant with his child, Declan and I now live with Hotch and Jack in a house which we have bought together for the past month." Rossi suggested with a smile.
"Em, honey it's going to be ok," Aaron reassured his girlfriend pulling her into his lap as he sat on the armchair in the corner of the living room, resting his hands on her baby bump.
"I know, I guess I am just so nervous all of sudden, almost like it is just becoming real," Emily admitted how she was feeling as she placed her hands on top of Aaron's hands on her baby bump.
Feeling their baby kick softly, the Aaron and Emily fell into a comfortable silence feeling the movements of their unborn child; right before both their sons came barrelling into the room, jumping onto the sofa.
"Mom, we heard Garcia's car Esther pull up on Uncle Dave's driveway can we open the door?" Declan asked his adoptive mother, panting to try and catch his breath after running into the room after his little brother, being fifteen he still enjoyed spending time with his family, family life was very important to him.
"You'll have to ask Uncle Dave guys," Emily replied pointing towards Rossi who was stood with drinks in his hands.
"Ok," Jack said excitedly before jumping off the sofa and asking Rossi as politely as a seven your old can.
"Uncle Dave, can me and Dec open the door please, Aunty Penny is here!" Jack shouted as he ran out of the room towards Rossi, who he had grown close to over the years.
"Yeah course you can buddy," Rossi ruffled the young boy's hair.
Half an hour later the rest of the team had arrived at Rossi's house, and had gathered in the living area surrounding Emily and Hotch, JJ had brought Will and Henry who were also a part of their BAU family. Garcia was first to address the elephant in the room, whilst all three of the kids were playing in the other room.
"So you've been doing the dirty with the bossman," Garcia stated, causing the whole team to laugh aloud, including Aaron and Emily.
"We've been together for eighteen months Pen, it's hardly a quickie in the office," Emily said with a smirk, watching Hotch squirm at the mention of such inappropriate behaviour in the office.
"Eighteen months!" Morgan breathed out, in shock as to how they had kept it a secret for so long.
"Yes eighteen months and we have been living together for a month," Hotch filled the team on some of the other details of his and Emily's relationship.
"Congratulations," JJ and Garcia exclaimed excitedly before pulling Emily into a tight hug, catching her out by surprise.
"Garcia, I can't breathe." Emily gasped out as Garcia held on to her tight.
Releasing her quickly, Emily caught her breathe as Hotch wrapped his arms around her waist, placing a gentle kiss to the top of her head. Rubbing her expanding stomach where there child lay.
"And as you are probably aware I am four months pregnant, our baby is due around my birthday in October and before you ask we don't know if we are having a boy or a girl." Emily exclaimed with a big a grin on her face.
"Oh, this is so great I will have another niece or nephew to spoil rotten." Garcia giggled like a school girl as Morgan wrapped his arms around her in an attempt to calm his 'Baby Girl' down.
"Garcia please doesn't go crazy." Hotch tried to plead with Garcia, JJ chuckled.
"Hotch there is no way around it, look at Henry he has more clothes and shoes than I do." JJ stated with a smile to her husband Will who had been secretly trying again for another baby now that Henry was four, but neither one of them wanted to give up their jobs, so the plan was put on hold. "Which reminds me where is Henry, Jack or Declan?" JJ asked the rest of the pseudo family.
"I'm not sure but I think they are in the conservatory." Rossi exclaimed getting up from his seat.
"Let's go find our junior G-Men." Garcia chirped as she led her family out to look for the boys.
All of the team got up to go and see what the two Hotchner boys and Henry were up to. They reached the conservatory and saw that the three BAU children were playing outside, Declan with his shirt off showing off his very muscular frame for a fifteen year old, from playing lacrosse, football, running track, doing gymnastics and dancing, he also was a musician playing guitar, drums and singing. It was late April early May and the weather was starting to heat up so all the kids were in shorts and t-shirts with sneakers.
"Declan loves being a big brother to Jack." Emily exclaimed as she continued to watch the boys in the back yard, until Jack spotted them all watching them from the conservatory windows.
"Daddy, Uncle Derek, Uncle Will, Uncle Spence, and Uncle Rossi, come play with us." Jack screamed at the top of his lungs as Henry continued to chase him around the garden.
Giving Emily one last kiss before heading outside to play with his sons and nephew Henry keeping his shirt on to hide the Foyet scars from the young children the only person who had really seen them and was not repulsed was Emily, Morgan took his shirt off before following the unit chief, Will kissed his wife before removing his shirt, running outside and picking his son up swinging him around, Reid and Rossi just followed the rest of them outside.
The three BAU badass' ladies watched as their loved ones play outside, this was one of the days they treasured, days which brought the family closer together, and nothing does that better than a new addition.
