Emily guided Morgan to the kitchen to sort out his face and check it. As much as she wanted him to leave she couldn't just leave him covered in blood when she was partly to blame.
Morgan growled out in pain as the brunette wiped his face and pressed a cold compress to his nose and cheek. "I thought we were okay," he said sadly, letting down his guard with tears in his eyes.
"Well...," the brunette said tearfully, "T-The thing is...I'm...I'm pregnant."
Morgan's eyes flew open wide and he stood there completely frozen.
After too long a silence, she took a deep breath and swiped at her tears, "Please say something," she begged. It was bad enough JJ had left her.
"A baby?" he whispered.
Emily nodded, "I took a test and..."
Morgan couldn't help it and a small smile crept across his face, "I'm gonna be a Daddy."
The profiler looked at him in surprise, "I t-think so. I-I'm going to see a doctor and..."
"Count me in," he said excitedly, "I'm not missing the first appointment! I'm going to be there every step of the way...Scans, cravings, foot rubs, back rubs...You name it, I'm there."
"How hard did she hit you?" Emily asked tearfully, "This isn't something as simple as that...I mean...What about Jennifer? I don't know what to do..." she cried out.
Morgan's face softened, "I'm sorry, Emily, really...I've just...I've wanted to be a Dad for so long now and I can't help but be happy. I know we didn't ask for this. I know how it came about. But it's an innocent life. It's my kid and I want my kid...It's our kid. But we will work this out together," he said bringing the devastated profiler in for a hug, "I promise."
Garcia peered down at the mess of a blonde lying sprawled on her couch. She shook her head as JJ groaned awake feeling the effects of the vast amounts of alcohol she had consumed. "Bet that hurts," she stated handing out a glass of water and some aspirin.
"Shhhh...too...loud," JJ groaned out before getting teary again.
The tech quickly sat next to her best friend and pulled her in for a hug, "Come on now kitten. No more tears you promised."
"I can't help it," the blonde whispered out, "My girlfriend is pregnant with Morgan's baby!"
"Jennifer," Emily whispered approaching the couch, her heart breaking at the appearance of her girlfriend.
JJ looked up surprised.
"I called her," Garcia said softly, "You two lovelies need to talk this out." She got up and patted the brunette's shoulder reassuringly before moving into her bedroom.
"Y-You're keeping it?" the blonde whispered.
"Yes," Emily nodded, "I can't go there...Not again...Not this late either...I just...Yes, I'm keeping it."
"And Morgan is..."
"Surprisingly happy. Excited. Supportive," Emily said softly back watching her carefully.
JJ shook her head angrily, "Of course he is. He wins! He gets you, your body, your babies...And what do I get? Nothing. I get nothing!"
"No, he gets a kid," the profiler whispered tearfully, "That's all he gets."
"I'm just...just so mad," JJ stated grabbing some more tissues from the pile feeling a headache coming on. "I wanted kids with you. I wanted to marry you. I never thought that would involve him. I don't want that to involve him."
"I can't help that...Look in about 7 months there will be a baby in the world," she took a breath, "And I want you in its life...but I need to think about my future now Jennifer. It's not just me anymore," she saw the look on her face, "And I'm not talking about Morgan. I mean me and the baby. I can't wait around for you or put my life on hold. I need someone sure and stable. I can't have you coming in and out when it's not just me anymore..."
"This isn't my dream," JJ whispered tearfully, "I never wanted this...I can't. I'm sorry, I just can't," she shook her head.
Emily nodded before turning and walking past Garcia out the door, "T-Thanks for l-letting me in," she sobbed out leaving the apartment.
Garcia glanced at JJ moping tearfully on the couch from the open kitchen. She slammed the mug down, "That's it!" she exclaimed, "I can't take it anymore...," she marched over to her best friend with a look of pure anger, "Have you lost your fucking mind?"
The blonde looked at her in shock, "What?" Garcia swearing was something that only happened once every blue moon.
"You just turned down the love of your life...Why? Because she accidentally got pregnant from being kidnapped? Unbelievable! Selfish! A total fool...All of the insane things in this world sums up your behaviour right now! So that's it...," she gestured, "Just going to let her go. Just like that?"
"It's Morgan's baby Pen," JJ whispered, "Not mine."
"That's the problem Jayje," the tech exclaimed back, "It is yours! She wants you to be in their lives. She wants you to be the baby's Mom!"
"It already has a Mom," JJ exclaimed back, "And a dad!"
"You don't think children grow up in different family situations than one of each?" Garcia questioned. "What about step-parents? What about me? I'm adopted, technically I have four parents. It takes a village to raise a child Jayje. Yes it will be tough but it's Morgan. It's not some random guy from a bar or Mick Rawson or an evil unsub..."
"Just stop," JJ cried out, "Stop," she stated getting up, grabbing her purse and walking towards the door needing to escape.
"She has an appointment at 4pm," Garcia called out before the door slammed shut.
