Partners-Ch 37
Penelope and Derek were bonding with JD when they heard a knock at the door, they looked up to see their entire family waking into the room, Penelope smiled and said, "come on over guys". Reid was carrying Henry, Jack was walking beside Hotch and Dave was carrying the very anxious older sister Gabby, when she got to where she could see her brother she said, "momma he widdle".
Derek laughed and said, "yes he is sweetie and when you were born you were this little to", she looked up at him and said, "weally"?, he tapped the end of her nose as he sat her up on the bed and said, "yes really". She kissed Penelope on the cheek and said, "me lub him momma, what he name"?, she looked up and said, "his name is James Daniel Morgan".
Mick smiled and said, "Daniel"?, she said, "yes we hope that you are okay with that"?, he walked over and looked down at the little boy and said, "I'm so honored P". Emily said, "he's beautiful PG", she said, "thank you my raven haired beauty", Henry and Jack looked down at the little boy and Henry said,
"he pwetty aunt P".
Penelope smiled and said, "thank you sweetie", he laughed and wrapped his arms around his dads neck, Jack kissed the baby on the top of the head and grinned when he started moving in Penelopes arm. Derek said, "what do you think about your little cousin"?, Jack laughed and said, "I can't wait till he can play with us".
Derek said, "that will be a little while", he said, "I know and I promise that Henry and me will watch over him", Derek said, "thanks little dude", Jack laughed and said, "anytime uncle Derek". Gabby looked up at her mom and said, "tan I holdie him momma"?, she said, "you sure can but you have to sit right here beside momma, okay"?, the little girl nodded her head yes as she sat down on the bed beside Penelope.
Fran watched as Penelope put JD in Gabbys arms and then wrapped her arm around the little girl, Derek was sitting there with his hands out just in case Gabby needed a little extra help holding the baby. Fran looked down at Penelope and said, "James would be so happy and proud that you named your son after him Penelope".
Penelope smiled and said, "I want JD to know who he's named after when he gets a little older", Derek said, "ohhhhhhh I have lots and lots of stories about dad to tell JD, well when he is old enough to understand them. They all looked up when there was a knock at the door, Penelope grinned and said, "come in Maria".
She walked over to the bed and said, "I was here doing therapy with a patient and I heard that you were here, how are you"?, Penelope said, "tired but so so happy". Maria kissed Mick on the lips gently and said, "I heard that you've had a full day today"?, Mick laughed and said, "yeah I was there visiting P when her water broke".
Penelope said, "I don't know what I would have done without him today Maria, he stayed with me and helped me bring this little one into the world", Maria smiled at her and said, "awwww Penelope, he's gorgeous". Derek said, "Maria this is James Daniel Morgan, the newest edition to our family", she said, "how did the doctors say he was doing, he's like 2 months early isn't he"?, Derek and Penelope both nodded their heads yes in agreement.
Penelope said, "he's doing great, his weight is 5 lbs 8 ounces and he is 19 inches long", Derek kissed his sons hand and said, "he's perfect, just like his momma and big sister". Maria said, "ohhh before I forget I have ordered the bouquets and we can pick them up Sunday morning", Penelope smiled and said,
"thanks for helping Maria".
She said, "anytime Penelope, anytime, that's what family does", she smiled as she looked around the room at all the smiling faces and said, "that it is Maria, that it is". Penelope looked down at Gabby and said, "how about we let grandma Fran hold JD"?, she smiled and nodded her head yes as Derek took the baby from the little girls arms.
Fran kissed her grandson on the cheek and said, "hello James Daniel Morgan", the baby started moving in her arms she laughed and said, "he looks so much like you both". Derek wrapped his arms around his future daughter and wife and sighed happily as they watched the rest of their family as they one by one held the newest family member.
