Hey everyone. Firstly, I would just like to say thank you so much for the amazing response to this story so far. 40 REVIEWS AFTER JUST 2 CHAPTERS! You guys are all amazing. Thank you!
Secondly, for those of you who haven't been on my profile, I have exams coming up soon (Philosophy, Psychology and Ethics.), so updates will be slower than usual. I am so sorry, but I really have to revise. I promise to try to update as often as I can though
"What?" Reid questioned, confusion flooding his features as he looked between Garcia and Charlotte. "Garcia, are you pregnant?"
Garcia said nothing, she just glared at Charlotte, as tears started to appear in the corners of her eyes.
"No." Charlotte quickly jumped in. "No, I didn't mean it like that." She tried to keep her voice calm, but couldn't. It came out shaky and panicked. "I just meant… I just meant, does she have any names picked out, for when she does decide to have a baby."
Nobody bought it. Even Charlotte knew that was a waist of time.
"Garcia?" Reid encouraged her to answer.
Everybody waited for what felt like a lifetime in silence for her response. The tech girl's eyes flickered between all of her friends, except Morgan. She couldn't look at him.
"Is it mine?" Morgan finally asked through his teeth, when he couldn't take the silence any longer.
She nodded, still refusing to meet his gaze.
"And what? You just weren't going to tell me?" He spat. "You thought I didn't have a right to know?"
"No, of course you do." She quickly defended, turning to face him. "I just…" She paused as she locked onto his angry gaze, trying to think of what to say, as the built up liquid finally escaped her own eyes.
"You just what?"
"I didn't want to tell you in front of everyone else."
"Really?"
"Yes really." Garcia answered harshly. "Do you really think I'd keep your own child a secret from you? What kind of person do you think I am?" There was a short pause before she continued. "Jesus Derek, I didn't tell you because I didn't know how you'd react. I was scared you'd hate me. But it doesn't matter anymore, because it's clear you already hate me."
More tears fell as the young girl stood and quickly ran out of the diner.
"Penelope wait!" Morgan called, as she disappeared. He swiftly raced after her, leaving a shocked team behind.
There was a long silence before Rossi finally spoke. "You two aren't pregnant, are you?" he asked, looking between Charlotte and JJ.
"No." They quickly responded in unison.
"I can't believe I just let that slip." Charlotte put her head in her hands. "I'm such a freaking idiot."
"No you're not." Spencer quickly assured her, wrapping an arm around her.
"Come on, you can say it." She looked up at him. "That was pretty stupid."
He chuckled softly, despite the seriousness of the situation. "Okay yes, yes it was." He gave his girlfriend a small smile. "But there's nothing you can do about it."
"At least now Garcia doesn't have to think of a way to tell him." JJ said, giving her a sympathetic look.
"I'm sure Pen won't see it like that." Charlotte told her.
"So… we're going to have two BAU babies." Aaron announced after a long pause, hoping to brighten the mood.
"I know, it's incredible." JJ added, picking up on what he was trying to do. "I could barely believe it when I found out."
"When exactly did you find out?" Dave asked his wife, poking her lightly in the side.
"Today, just a minute ago in the restroom." JJ glanced over at Emily. "So Em, how does it feel knowing you're gonna be a mom?"
"Amazing." She grinned at her blonde friend. "I just hope Morgan and Penelope are out there finally getting their act together."
Meanwhile.
"Penelope wait!" Morgan called to her again, after he left the diner. "Come back!"
The young tech girl heard him calling for her but chose to ignore him, she couldn't talk to him right now.
"Baby girl, please stop running." His voice softened as he shouted for her again. "This can't be good for our baby."
Morgan sprinted after her and it didn't take him very long to catch up to her. "Penelope, please."
Garcia could feel and hear how close he was, she knew she had no chance of outrunning him.
"Baby girl, I'm sorry." He placed his hand on her shoulder, and finally she turned to look at him, through her tear filled eyes. "I overreacted."
"I was going to tell you." Her voice pleaded with him through her sobs, begging him to believe her.
"I know."
"I would never keep your own child from you."
"I know." He pushed the stray hair behind her ears, before wiping away the tears on her cheeks. "I'm sorry."
She flashed him a small smile, giving him a nod that let him know he was forgiven for his outburst.
"Lets start this again." He winked at her. "So… we're having a baby?"
"Yep."
"Oh, well with our good looks, this kid's gonna be the best looking kid to ever walk the planet." He inwardly cheered when she laughed at his comment. "Not to mention, what it's going to be like if it gets your personality and brain."
"And your charm and strength." Garcia added, now beaming at the man in front of her.
"Yeah, we're going have one awesome child." He told her.
"Yes we are."
"And we're going to be awesome parents."
Garcia nodded and, before she could talk herself out of it, quickly leaned forward and pressed a light kiss to Morgan's lips.
As she pulled back from the kiss, Morgan guided his arms around her and laced his fingers behind her back, holding her close to him. He kissed her forehead, before turning and leading her back to the diner.
