21. Chapter 21

In the waiting room, Reid spoke with the receptionist and set up a time the next afternoon for the consultation. Emma soon joined them. "We're all set, tomorrow at 4:00 p.m.," he told her. "Is everything okay?"

"Better than okay!" Emma smiled at him.

"Great!" JJ declared excitedly. "Now we can get on to the next item on this morning's agenda!"

"Which is?" Emma asked.

"Well, that depends on how you are feeling," Rossi told her.

"Fine – Reassured - Relieved – All of the above," Emma smiled. "I'm just glad I'm through here for the time being."

"In that case," Garcia was bubbling over, "Let' go shopping!"

"Shopping?" Emma stared at her. "For what?"

"For you, of course, Silly" Garcia laughed. "You still need lots and lots of clothes."

"I can't afford that!" Emma was adamant. "This doctor visit is covered under my insurance plan as a second opinion. That's the only way I can afford it. I don't have the money for more clothes!"

"Whoa – Whoa - Whoa," Rossi interrupted her. "I think Reid has something he wants to say. Don't you Reid?'

Reid reached into his back pocket and pulled out his wallet. He extracted a credit card and handed it to JJ. "I am putting you in charge," he told her. "Take Emma shopping and get her whatever she needs. You know from your own experience. She is my wife and I am paying for it."

He turned to Emma. "From now on, I will be handling the costs of everything you and the babies need," he stated. "We're married and it's my responsibility to see that the three of you are taken care of. Any questions?"

Emma's mouth fell open as she stared at him. "Not at the moment," she managed to say.

"Good," Reid declared. "Now, I understand that last night the two of you found a maternity store you like?"

"Just follow us," Garcia led the way out the door.

Bringing up the rear, Rossi turned to Reid. "Shouldn't you have given the credit card to Emma?" he asked quietly. "She is your wife."

"If I gave the card to Emma, she wouldn't get anything. You know how she is about spending money," Reid told him seriously. "And, if I gave it to Garcia, she would buy everything in sight. JJ seems like a safe medium."

"You aren't on the job, and you are still practicing your profiling!" Rossi laughed. "Let's get going!"
