"Spencer, wake up. Come on, baby. You can do it," a voice echoed through the dark haze he was trying to fight through. He recognised the voice, it was a voice that he loved to hear. He pushed through the haze and opened his eyes to see Lily smiling down at him. He loved the feel of her hand through his hair, each motion calming him. "There is my wonderful husband."
Reid looked around for a moment and realised that he wasn't at home, he was at the hospital. "Lily, why am I at the hospital? I didn't need to go to the hospital."
"What do you remember?" Lily asked.
"I remember watching that Harrison man talk to you and then nothing. What happened?" Reid said.
"You fell asleep on the sofa and when we tried to wake you up, you stayed asleep. You wouldn't wake up. We rushed you to the hospital and they are treating your injuries. Don't ever scare me like that again. You're body couldn't deal with what had happened. You've been asleep since yesterday."
"I'm sorry, I didn't come to the hospital because of Alexander. I guess he isn't going to be a problem any more," Reid sighed happily before reaching his hand out and stroking Lily's hair behind her ears. "How are you doing? After that Harrison guy visited."
"I feel fine, I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders. Spencer, I know I should feel guilty about shooting Alexander but I don't, I feel that I did the right thing. He was going to kill me, he was going to kill our baby. I protected what I love," Lily answered. "Spencer, everything is going to be okay now. We can move forward."
"I know we can," Reid smiled. "Just promise me something."
"Anything," Lily said before laying down on the bed. Reid put his hand around her and hugged as best as he could. He ignored the aching pain that revealed around his body. He didn't focus on the pain because he needed to focus on Lily. He needed to focus on the woman that loved. Over the last week or so he thought he was going to lose her and his baby. He didn't have to fear losing them any more. All he had to do was focus on loving his family.
"No more secrets and no more ghosts," Reid whispered to her. "Let's focus on the future and raising our child. I want him or her to have an amazing life, one filled with love. I know we can give our child a wonderful life."
"No more secrets or ghosts," Lily agreed. "Spencer, you are going to make a wonderful father."
"You are going to be a wonderful mother," Reid smiled even though it hurt his face, he knew that he was going to be sore for a while. "You do realise that now I can focus on reading to the baby. He or she needs to know the classics before they are born."
Lily let out a loud giggle. "I'll allow the reading to my stomach but the moment you start playing the doctor who theme tune to the baby is the day we need to talk. Our baby gets to choose which doctor who is the best."
"Tom Baker was the best one," Reid smirked.
"The war continues..." Lily laughed before holding Reid's hand. He gave it a comforting squeeze.
"I love you, Mrs Reid."
"I love you too, Mr Reid."
Two months, two weeks later
Reid held Lily's hand as she laid down on the table, she shivered slightly as the ultrasound gel was spread on her baby bump, Lily now had a large visible bump, he loved. Lily loved being pregnant, she loved feeling the baby inside of her. Reid felt nervous as he watched Lily's doctor, Dr Wate, begin the ultrasound. This wasn't the first ultrasound he had attended with Lily. They both wanted a questioned answered and they hoped today was the day they would receive their answer. Joy flooded from his heart as he heard his baby's heartbeat on the monitor.
"Your baby has a strong heart," Dr Wate smiled.
"Dr Wate, could you answer a question for us? We really want to find out," Lily asked. "Is it a boy or a girl?
Dr Wate examined the screen for a few moments before turning back to Reid and Lily. "Are you sure you want to know?"
"Please, we want to know," Reid nodded.
"You are going to be the parents of a baby boy," Dr Wate smiled.
"A boy!" Lily said happily before turning to him. "Spencer, we are going to have a son. I'm so happy."
"A son, I can't wait to meet him. Thank you Lily," Spencer said before giving Lily a kiss to her lips.
"I'll get a DVD of the ultrasound and a photo done for you," Dr Wate said. "I'll be a few minutes."
Reid wiped the ultrasound gel from Lily's stomach and helped her up from the bed.
"I told you it was going to be a boy," Lily grinned as she pulled her t-shirt over her baby bump.
"I know, I owe you a foot rub. I lost the bet," Reid said as he grabbed Lily's jacket and help her into it. "Garcia is going to jump for joy when she hears we are having a boy."
Lily let out a small laugh. "Morgan is also going to owe Garcia a night out to the theatre. He lost the bet to her. Garcia said it was going to be a boy."
"Ladies always win," Reid chuckled.
"Yes, we do."
