Mini Epilogue Seven
Authors: hey guys! I know it's been a while BUT I have a very good reason for that. I've been working on another fanfic (a Inuyasha fic) and am a couple chapters in, now I'm not posting said fic chapter by chapter because: 1, I don't want to make "angel"/"angle" mistakes, and 2, I want some backup in case I get writer's block ("Angels sleep" has taught me so much).
Also, I'm playing around with another Criminal Minds fic idea but I have one thing to decide before I start writing it; is it going to continue from "Angels Sleep" (have Penny and Olive sort of cameo) or should I start from scratch? Since you have all been so wonderful in the past I'm hoping you might help me out a bit :)
(It's so hard to put time stamps on these scenes) about nine months after Penelope found out she was pregnant
Penny sat in the hospital's waiting room in one of the not-so-comfy chairs as she watched her dad pace, kind of like one of the caged lions they had seen at the zoo a month or so ago.
"Mom's gonna be okay, right?" She asked, getting more nerves every time Morgan checked the clock.
He nodded just as an ear shatteringly loud cry hit the air. The next four minutes ticked by slow as malaise as father and daughter waited, staring at the doors.
A smiling doctor peeked out "Mr. Morgan?" She asked.
Morgan and Penny rush forward.
The doctor beamed "follow me" she instructed, as she lead them to Penelope's room. There laying in a standard hospital bed was Penelope holding a wailing little bundle. In a millisecond Penny and Derek were at her side.
"Isn't he beautiful" Penelope whispered as she handed him to Morgan, who held his small son as if he were mad of glass.
"He's perfect" Derek said, slowing rock his arms.
"Can I?" Penny asked hesitantly.
Penelope and Derek nodded.
Using his head Derek pointed at the chair next to the bed "sit down"
Settling in to the seat, Penny held out her hands for her little brother.
Gently, Derek passed him "make sure to support his neck"
After cooing and making funny face at her brother for a few minutes, Penny asked "what are we gonna call him?"
The Morgan family had gone back and forth about the name so many times that Penny couldn't remember what they had decided.
"Jason" Derek asked more than stated as he looked at Penelope for confirmation.
She smiled "Jason" she agreed.
Penny looked at her father "you mean like your old friend, Jason Gideon?"
He nodded and they lapsed in to a comfortable silence.
"Ya know..." Penny began to say, a humorous glint in her eye "Jason is cute and all but I did ask for a girl" heaving a dramatic sigh, Penny tried her hardest not to giggle "I guess he'll have to do"
Derek chuckled. Penelope on the other hand was already fast asleep.
Taking out his cell Derek proceeded to contact the team and his family to tell them the wonderful news. Soon everyone was there to welcome Jason Aaron Morgan.
Author: believe it or not it took me forever to come up with a name (I googled Derek's dad's name but got nothing).
This chapter was a bit shorter then I wanted but I think it's still good.
