The couple bugged Garcia to tell them about the secret. Garcia was a tough cookie to break. Also, she enjoyed watching Reid wrecking his brain of the different possibilities.

"Relax boys it's gonna be safe."

"Safe? Wha-what is going to happen? Garcia, if the secret ends up leaving me to feel embarrass, I forbid you to babysit Emmi."

"Ouch. That hurts boy wonder. But neh… Not gonna happen." Garcia said confidently.

(A week later - Saturday night)

The Morgan's were having spaghetti meatball for dinner. Spencer who was seating beside Emmi noticed her pushing aside her carrots. Spencer had made it a mission to get Emmi eat healthily from young. Both he and Derek don't want their child to grow up to be picky eater. Besides it's one of the way to ensure Emmi was growing well and healthy.

"Emmi, finish up your carrots or else there won't be cartoons later on" Spencer said sternly.

"I don't like this daddy." Emmi pouted. Usually she'll get away with that adorable face but Spencer was fully aware of her strategy. He turned to Derek hoping he'll step in and help. Derek acknowledges the situation and sets his fork down before speaking to Emmi.

"Babygirl, do you remember what daddy and I kept telling you about family?"

Spencer wasn't sure where this was going.

Emmi answered "We always have each other?"

Emmi was right and Morgan smiled. "We always have each other and we protect each other. Don't you want to protect me and daddy when you grow up?"

Emmi punched the air "I want! I want be strong and protect you too daddy."

"Thank you Princess. Now the last time I checked, vegetables help you get strong. What do you say Princess?"

"I love carrots!"

The couple laughed at Emmi's enthusiasm. Spencer looked at Derek and mouthed the words 'thank you'. He has always admired Derek's ability to say the right things and the right time. It's one of the reasons why he loves him with his whole heart.

After dinner Emmi asked Spencer to call Garcia again. Just as Spencer handed the phone to her, Emmi went to the room for privacy.

Meanwhile Derek went to the bedroom after dinner. He excused himself telling Spencer he wanted to lie down for a while. To avoid further questioning from his husband, he quickly told him was tired. As a profiler, Spencer didn't buy it at all but decides to let it go. Derek knew his lie was obvious but mentally thanked him for not questioning him further.

(In bedroom)

Morgan sat quietly at the side of the bed. He looked at the floor and shut his eyes. Secretly he was trying to control the ache that was building in his heart. He took a deep breath and reached for his wallet at the side of the table. He opened it and digs into one of the compartment and pick out a small photograph. It was a photo of his father.

It has been 20 years since his father left him. There hasn't been a day where he doesn't miss or forget about him. Derek knows tomorrow is Father's Day and he couldn't help it but to feel hurt and alone. He lost and misses his hero very much.

Someone who believed in him when he himself didn't. Someone who will protect him through anything. His protector, his hero.

The last gift that he gave his father for the special day was a handmade card. He was too young to understand the significance of the day. As he grew older, he wished he would've gotten his father a better gift before he leaves him forever. As Derek wept quietly, there was a soft knock on the bedroom door. He quickly wipe the tears and kept the picture back in his wallet.

"Der? Emmi wants to have a movie night. We're waiting for you" Spencer spoke softly.

Morgan clears his throat and said "yeah, I'll be there."

Spencer heard the crack in Derek's voice.

"Hey you alright ?"

"Yeah, I'm just tired."

"You cried Der."

"What? No I-I'm just tired." Derek let out a fake chuckle to ease the tension in the room. Spencer know there's no point in arguing. Derek hates to be seen in a vulnerable moment.

"You know I love you right?" It wasn't a question but a statement.

"I love you too Spencer. Every moment in my life." Derek answered and kissed Spencer's forehead.

"Pretty boy, I think we should go now. Emmi shouldn't be left unsupervised especially with popcorn and gummy bears."
