The Big Day

(EPOV)

Today is my wedding day and I was getting nervous. I was great up until it was time to start getting ready. Jessica, JJ, Penelope, and Erin were already dressed in their dresses. I had chosen pink and red for my wedding colors. Jessica was my maid of honor and she was in a pink strapless dress that came with a shawl. JJ, Penelope and Erin were all wearing red and their dresses were in halter top style. They all looked lovely.

"Emily are you ready to put your dress on? We have to be down at the beach in twenty minutes." Jessica said.

I looked at her and smiled. We all had massages done this morning and then we went and got our hair professionally done. We did one another's make up and I thought everyone looked gorgeous. I finally nodded and she smiled at me. Jessica, JJ, Pen, and Erin all helped me get into my dress without messing up my hair or make up.

There was a knock on the door and JJ said "Emily stay hidden. I will see who is at the door."

I smiled and nodded. I just kept looking at myself in the mirror. I could not believe that, that was me standing there. I had on a white dress with a cathedral style train. My veil was also cathedral length. My dress was strapless and had a slight empire waist to it. My veil was attached to a tiara and with it all on I did not recognize myself.

JJ laughed as she came back in and said "That was your dad. He is standing out in the hall waiting on you. Apparently Aaron is wanting to get married right this second. He told your dad to see if you were ready because he could not wait one more minute to make you Mrs. Aaron Hotchner."

I laughed and said "Well we are all ready. Let's do this. I can not wait to be Mrs. Aaron Hotchner. I feel as if I have been waiting my whole life for this moment."

Everyone laughed and Erin said "Alright girls' lets get our princess married."

Penelope stepped up to me and gave me a quick hug and whispered "You look absolutely amazing Em."

I smiled and said "Thank you."

Pen grinned and then JJ was giving me a hug and said "I am so happy for you."

I hugged her back and said "You will be the next one."

She laughed and shook her head as Jessica came up and hugged me and said "I can't wait until you are officially my sister-in-law."

I laughed and said "Neither can I. Thank you for agreeing to be my maid of honor."

Jessica smiled and said "I love you Em and Haley would be happy for both you and Aaron."

I smiled back and nodded and then Erin was hugging me and said "Are you ready to become Mrs. Hotchner?"

I grinned and said "Hell yes. I am more than ready."

The girls' laughed and we headed towards the hotel room door. As soon as we opened it I saw my dad standing there. When he saw me his eyes widened and he smiled. Erin, Pen, JJ, and Jess all went ahead. My dad held out his arm and I placed my arm through his.

"You look beautiful pumpkin. Aaron is one lucky man." he said.

I smiled and patted my stomach and said "I am the lucky one dad."

He shook his head and said "You both are lucky then. Are you sure you want this?"

I chuckled and said "I have never been more sure of anything in my life dad. I love Aaron, Jack and these two on the way."

He nodded and said "Well let's get you down to the beach then. Your man is liable to come looking for us if we do not get there soon."

I laughed and said "Well let's go then Daddy. Thank you for doing this. I love you."

My dad looked at me and said "Of course Pumpkin I wouldn't have it any other way. And never forget that I love you too."

With that we walked to the elevators where the others were waiting. Thankfully the hotel we are staying at was right on the beach and a perfect place to get married. All it took was my dad making a few phone calls and we got the permission we needed to use the beach for the day. I smiled as we walked off of the elevators. I could not wait to become Mrs. Aaron Hotchner.

I looked at my watch again and Dave laughed and said "Calm down Aaron. I see the women coming out now. It will only be a few for minutes before Emily is your wife."

I smiled and said "I can not help it Dave. I have wanted this to happen for what seems like years now. I will be happy once I hear the words you may now kiss the bride."

Morgan laughed and said "Well man get ready because the girls' are starting down the aisle that the hotel made for you. I still can not believe Andrew rented every room in the hotel."

I laughed and said "Well think about it we have a lot of people here. So I can understand why he did it. He wanted to make sure we all had the same hotel and no hassles on his daughters wedding day. Now quiet!"

I watched as Strauss, then Penelope, then JJ, and the Jessica all walked down the aisle. Each of them did look pretty. I caught my breath when the wedding march began and I caught sight of Emily coming out of the hotel on her father's arms. She took my breath away in one second. She looked radiant and she had a smile on her face. My eyes met hers as she walked down the aisle and I smiled at her and mouthed I love you. She mouthed it back which had me smiling even more.

"Dearly Beloved we are gathered here today to witness the joining of Aaron Hotchner and Emily Prentiss. Who gives this woman to this man?" the Pastor said.

"I do." Andrew said as he kissed Emily's cheek and put her hand in mine.

Andrew then went and stood beside Morgan. He was pulling double duty today. I looked in Emily's eyes the best I could with the veil on her face and smiled.

The Pastor said "It is my understanding that you have wrote your own vows correct?"

Emily and I nodded and the Pastor said "Alright well first Aaron Hotchner do you take Emily Prentiss to be your wife?"

"I do" I said loud and firm.

The Pastor smiled and looked at Emily and said "Do you Emily Prentiss take Aaron Hotchner to be your husband?"

Emily beamed a smile and said clearly "I Do."

The Pastor smiled and looked at me again and said "Alright Aaron you may say your vows."

I nodded and looked Emily in the eyes and said "Emily just when I thought everything was lost you came into my life. You showed me how to love again and how to be a better father and spouse. I have loved you now for the last two years but I never told you. You are the light in the darkness, the sun when it rains, you are my heart and soul and with you and our son and the two on the way you complete me. I love you."

I saw Emily smile as tears pooled in her eyes. The Pastor nodded at Emily to say her vows.

Emily took in a couple of deep breaths and said "Aaron you have shown me that not all men are bad. You have helped me through so much and yet you have never once tried to walk away. I love the way you laugh, the way you look at me, and I love seeing the love you have for me reflected in your eyes. You have gave me a son that I love like my own and you have gave me a daughter and son on the way. When everything feels as if it is falling apart you are right there putting it back together. I loved you yesterday, I love you today, and I will love you tomorrow and for the rest of our lives."

I smiled at her as the Pastor said "The rings please."

Dave handed the pastor the rings and he handed one to me and said "Put this on her finger and repeat after me. With this ring I thee wed."

I slipped the ring on Emily's finger and said "With this ring I thee wed."

The pastor handed Emily the other ring and said "Put this on his finger and repeat after me. With this ring I thee wed."

Emily cried a little as she slipped the ring on my finger and said "With this ring I thee wed."

We both looked at the Pastor as he said "As vested in me by the state of Flordia I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride."

I pulled Emily to me gently and bent down and kissed her passionately. I broke my mouth from hers when I felt a tug on my pants leg.

I looked down to see Jack looking up at me and he said "Daddy are you two married yet?!?"

Everyone laughed and clapped and I bent down and picked him up and said "Yes, son we are married now."

Jack grinned and said loudly "Yay Daddy and Mommy are married now. Can we go eat some cake now?"

Once again everyone laughed and Emily said "Yes baby boy we can go and eat some cake now."

Andrew and Erin were the first ones to walk back up the aisle followed by Morgan and Garcia, and then Reid and JJ and then Dave and Jessica. Finally I walked up the aisle with my arm around my wife's waist and our son in my arms.
