Epilogue 2: Tia

"Hey Morgan, can you call Jessica and…" Hotch started as they pushed Tia through to delivery.

"I got you", Morgan said chuckling.

Dr. Blake met them outside the delivery room.

"Can't a doctor get a coffee break?" Dr. Blake said laughing. "Neck and neck. Tell Heather I called this one." Dr. Blake helped her get on the gurney in the delivery room and the nurses got her in a gown. "Aaron, you're going to want to get your gown on too. By the looks of this, she won't be long."

Penelope, JJ and Rossi waited in the waiting room, while Morgan stepped outside to call Jessica to bring Jack to the hospital. Cruz headed back to office and when Reid came around the corner, he genuinely looked surprised to see them.

"I thought you guys were going to get something to eat?" he said, hugging JJ.

"We were until Tia went into labor!" Penelope said.

"You're kidding!" Reid said. "Wait until Heather hears", he said.

"How is she?" Rossi said.

"Knocked out. She delivered quickly, but she tore a bit, so they gave her a sedative and fixed her up. She's sleeping now and once the medicine wears off and she finishes her fluids, they are going to bring the boys in to try to nurse." Reid sat down in the chair and shook his head. "It's surreal you know? I'm a dad to two boys."

Morgan walked in and smiled. "Hey Pretty Boy! How are my nephews?"

"Amazing", he said standing up and hugging his brother. "You gotta help me, Man. You gotta be their coach and teach em' how to play ball and…"

"I got you!" Morgan said. "I won't let you down. They'll be the smartest, most athletic kids ever."

"Hey!" Penelope said, laughing. "And ours will be?"

"Super kids!" Rossi said, sing-songy.

Jessica arrived about 15 minutes later with Jack in tow.

"Is she here yet?" Jack said, as Morgan gathered him up in his arms.

"Not yet Sport", Morgan said. "But Uncle Spencer's boys are!"

"Oh yay! Auntie Heather had her babies! Can we see them?"

"You bet!" Reid said, taking Jack's hand. "I'll be back, I can tell Heather about Tia too!"

Jessica sat down with the crew in the waiting room. Looking at Penelope she smiled.

"So, how long has she been in labor?" Jessica said, still eyeing Penelope.

"About a half an hour or so. Dr. Blake thinks she's going to deliver really quickly", Penelope said. She looked at Jessica and smiled with her eye brows raised and then a look of shock crept across her face. Penelope put her finger to her lips and smiled brightly.

Hotch came around the corner.

"You guys are not going to believe this!" Hotch said with a huge grin on his face.

"If you say twins, Hotch, I'm outta here", Morgan said.

"No, no, no. She's here! I mean literally a few minutes and she was here!" Hotch hugged everyone. "I got to get back. Where's Jack?" he said, looking at Jessica.

"He went with Spencer to see the boys", Jessica said. "We'll meet him that way and let him see his sister."

The group ended up at the window for the second time that day to view the baby. Hotch was on the inside and carefully picked up his daughter and held her to the glass. Penelope snapped a quick picture to add to the newborn shots of the boys.

"They named her already", Morgan said, hugging Penelope.

"Jillian Erin Hotchner", Jessica read. "Adorable."

Jack came around the corner with Spencer. "Where is she?" Jack said excitedly.

"Right there", Rossi said, as Spencer picked him up and showed him the baby.

"She's little!" Jack said. "I can't play with her yet."

"Nope", Rossi said. "But she won't be for long. And soon, she'll running everywhere and you'll have to chase her and protect her."

Jack looked at his sister and smiled proudly. "I can handle that", he said.

Three weeks later, the team sat around in Rossi's lounge with the babies and kids and family. Fran flew back in to celebrate the new lives and even Spencer's mom was able to get a weekend pass to be there. The bigger kids sat by the fire playing cars and trucks as the babies rocked gently in the travel car seats or their mother's arms.

"Spencer I love the names", his mother said, as she gently held both babies in her arms. In just a few short weeks, they had each gained about 2 pounds and were eating very well.

"Well, it was Heather's idea", he said. "She knows how much reading means to us and well, good strong names are always great."

Diana looked down at her grandsons. "Hi John Arthur. Hi Raymond Edgar."

Jillian started to stir and Tia picked her up from the car seat. As soon as she laid her on her chest, she went back to sleep.

"Spoiled rotten", Heather said and laughed.

"She is", Tia said. She leaned over and tried to whisper. "Aaron gets jealous. It's his favorite place to sleep too."

"Tia!" Hotch said, his face growing red and a chuckle forming in his throat.

"This is nice", Rossi said. "So nice", he said moving to the mantle and grabbing a glass, "that I want to make a toast. "To new beginnings", he said.

"Well", Fran said, "if we're toasting to new beginnings then we should probably start with the two reasons why I'm here", she said.

"You're just visiting, right Ma?" Morgan said.

"Well…" she said moving closer to Rossi.

"No!" Penelope said. "I knew it!"

"Wait a minute!" Morgan said. "Are you two a, a…"

"I think the word you're looking for Son, is item. And yes, we are and so much more", he said, kissing Fran softly.

"I hope you're OK with this Son", Fran said, moving closer to Morgan who was now standing up.

"I just want you happy", he said. "And if he makes you happy…"

"He does." Fran said.

"Then I'm happy. Wait, you said two reasons…"

"I did", she said, smiling brightly.

"Are you guys getting…?" JJ said.

"No not yet", Rossi said. "But I think Kitten can answer the second part."

"Baby Girl?" Morgan said.

"Or baby boy", Penelope said.

"Huh?" Morgan said.

JJ screamed softly.

Will laughed. "Now this one I get."

Spencer and Heather looked at Penelope and lit up.

"What?" Morgan said.

"Really, Son? You're not getting this?" Rossi said.

"Hotch man, what's going on?" Morgan said.

"Don't look at us", Tia said for Hotch. "We're innocent bystanders."

Morgan looked back at Penelope. "Goddess, what are you…"

"Uncle Derek", Henry said, never missing a beat in playing trucks with Jack. "She's going to have a baby too!"

"Say what?" Morgan said. The group broke out in laughter as Morgan picked Penelope up and spun her around. "How? When?" he said.

"I found out the day before Heather and Tia went into labor", she said. "We're going to have a mini-us!"

Morgan grabbed Penelope and kissed her deeply. "I love you, Baby Girl", he said with tears stinging his eyes.

And I love you", Penelope said, hugging him tight.

"Ah yes, mi familia", Rossi said, taking a sip and hugging Fran close, placing a kiss on her cheek. "You're going to be a Nana!"

"I know!" Fran said excitedly.

The night waned on and the team talked and laughed, and planned for baby Morgan to come into the world.

As the group got up and got the babies ready to go, Will looked at JJ and smiled. "Well, I guess we should get to working on another baby", he said chuckling. "Don't wanna be left out."

Rossi smiled as he looked at JJ blush. Henry started to zip up his coat and stopped.

"What's wrong Buddy?" Will said.

Henry looked at him quizzically and smiled. "I said too, Dad." He finished zipping up his coat and the team burst out in chatter again.

"What?" Will said. He looked at JJ and smiled. "Oh Darlin", he said hugging her close.

"Oh this is going to be so interesting", Rossi said.
