"What's with the face?" Andrew asked curiously. "What face?" Emily responded. Andrew let out a breath and said, "The I'm really uncomfortable but too stubborn to admit it." Emily scowled, "That's not a thing. Andrew walked over to her and urged her to move forward on the bench. He got behind her, leaned her body into his, and firmly massaged her lower back with one hand and the bottom of her stomach with the other. Emily immediately sighed and rest her head on his shoulder. Andrew kissed her temple.
Mere meters down on the same bench, Savannah Morgan leaned into her husband and cooed, "They are so cute together." Morgan smiled in agreement, happy to see his best friend truly happy. Every member of the team, as well as their significant others, always noticed that Emily and Andrew would delve into their own little world whenever they were together. Rossi startled to chuckle when he heard Emily say, "You had to be the overachiever and put two babies in my uterus." Andrew playfully rolled his eyes and countered, "Says the woman who already gave birth to twins once." Emily cut her eyes, "Keep it up and you won't get any sex for a very long time." Andrew laughed, "How long is a long time? Because last time I checked, your libido can barely hold out for 24 hours." Emily blushed and punched him in the arm. Morgan said, "So, when's the wedding?" Emily fired back, "When is baby number 2?"
Savannah choked on her smoothie, "Not cool E, like at all. I could've died here." Crystal walked back into the room and announced that everyone needed to get fitted for their outfits. Emily inwardly groaned at the fact that everyone was making her and Andrew's anniversary a huge event. Although she hated the attention, she learned last year not to argue with Crystal Rossi when she wanted to do a big event.
As the night progressed, Emily allowed herself to enjoy the party. Her dress was surprisingly comfortable. The long gown was satin and went down to her ankles. There was a sequined portion that wrapped around her from the back and highlighted her growing belly. Andrew's dark purple shirt and cream dress pants matched her dress perfectly. Emily's hair was pulled into an elegant top bun. The girls, Dennis, and Nicky were all in matching colors. Emily's suspicion peaked when her mother showed up to the party also matching the couple. Garcia put together an amazing slideshow for their anniversary. Emily gave up the fight of her hormones and let the tears roll down her cheeks. Emily had a surprise of her own, with the help of all her female friends, mostly Savannah, and coaxed all the men onto the dance floor with the children. Emily let out an excited shriek when she saw Hotch and Jack arrive with a mystery guest. Hotch lifted her off the ground into a happy hug, "I'm so happy for you. You found your prince." Emily smiled, "How did you know about the party? Crystal?" "Reid got to me first, but yes Crystal called as well. We wouldn't miss it for anything in the world." Hotch cleared his throat and motioned to the woman standing next to him, "Emily, this is my girlfriend Claudia Bauneau." Emily clapped her hands together, "As in the Bonaparte Bauneau? Your father catered my 14th birthday in Budapest." Recognition immediately hit the woman's face, "I can't believe I didn't make the connection sooner. Your party was fun but the impromptu bowling in the villa was amazing…until" "the Prime Minster almost broke his hip" they said together with a laugh. "So, what are you doing now?" Emily asked. "I brought my expertise to Seattle." Emily looked at Hotch and Claudia, "I'm so happy for the two of you." Before walking them further into the party, Emily turned and said, "Don't let this one get away. He's special." Emily walked the adults into the party, after Jack had already ditched them, and pushed Hotch out onto the dance floor with everybody else. She looked up at the DJ and signaled to Savannah.
Savannah grabbed the microphone and the music was lowered, "What's up everybody. As you know, tonight we are celebrating the 2nd anniversary of Emily and Andrew. I know all the guys and children are wondering why they're on the dance floor. The answer is simple…you are all about to apart of the twins' gender reveal." Garcia, JJ, Tara, Kristi, Nicky, and Elizabeth Prentiss lowered disco ball shaped pinatas. Andrew helped Amina, while Mirabelle helped Dennis; Will helped Michael, Reid helped Henry, Hotch helped Jack, Morgan helped Hank, and Rossi, Luke, and Matt helped the Simmons' kids hit at the pinatas. Savannah was back on the microphone, "The Prentiss-Mendozas are welcoming…..a boy and a girl." Andrew started to holler and run around in circles as the purple and blue confetti went everywhere. The children were immediately rewarded with cupcakes for their participation. Emily was swooped up in Andrew's arms. She kissed him sweetly, "Look at that. Your overachieving got you a boy and a girl." Andrew's smile almost split his face and Emily already knew what he was thinking. "You are going to get way too much joy out of threatening potential boyfriends with guns." He kissed her chin before putting her down, "What do you expect? Baby, I have 3 daughters. I have expectations to live up to."
The couple enjoyed some on-the-spot baby games that Garcia came up with for almost an hour. Rossi announced that it was time for the main event, causing Andrew's palms to sweat. Andrew had a major surprise for Emily; her love of fireworks just made it easier. Everyone was cheering as the firework show started; Andrew spared no expense. He pulled something out of his pocket while Emily's eyes were glued to the sky. The final set of fireworks went off spelling out Emily, will you marry me?
Emily's gasp was audible as all eyes turned to her and Andrew. She looked down, where his arms were wrapped around her, to see a beautiful 3 carat diamond surround by emeralds and sapphires. She heard Dennis ask, "Will you marry us Emily?" The tears flowed freely and Emily shook her head, "Yes! Yes! Of course, I'll marry you." The cheering faded out as the happy couple sealed their engagement with a kiss. "I love you so much Drew." "I love you more than you will ever know Em."
After everyone stop swooning over Emily's ring and patting Andrew on the back, dessert was served. Morgan helped Hank eat his cake and said aloud, "That ring was beyond difficult to find." Savannah immediately looked to her husband, "How did you manage to hide that you were helping Andrew pick out a ring?" "Savannah, how were you able to hide that you knew the genders of the babies?"
"How did both of you manage to hide this from me?" Garcia asked dramatically with a shocked look on her face. As everyone burst into laughter, Hotch leaned over to Claudia and said, "Welcome to our family."
