I'm gonna cry. The final chapter.


JJ smiled as she sat in Penelope's dressing room two weeks later. "You aren't going to get abducted this time, are you?" she asked and hugged her.

Garcia laughed. "I'm not planning on it." she said happily. "How do I look?" She stood up and spun around as Emily entered the room.

"Gorgeous..." said Emily breathlessly.

JJ nodded, "I agree."

JJ and Emily were the bride's maids, therefore they wore the same dresses. They allowed Pen to pick it out for them, and for once, it was normal. A lavender sleeveless dress that was floorlength, with a small rose at the right hip.

"You two don't look half bad yourselfs," smiled Garcia as she hugged both her friends. She sighed softly, "I'm sort of nervous."

"Why?" asked Emily. "Your marrying the man that you love. You should be happy. You have a family now. Unlike us."

"You guys are my family," smiled Garcia, "You've always been."

JJ smiled, "We couldn't get by without you."

Reid knocked on the door, "You ready?" he called from the outside.

Garcia shook nervously, "Ready as I'll ever be..." he said.

Hotch stood next to Derek. "You ready to no longer be the ladies man that you've always been?"

"I haven't been that ladies man in a while," Derek replied, smiling. "Thanks for being my best man."

"No problem."

He stood straight as he heard the music start playing.

The two men watched as JJ walked down the aisle, then Emily behind.

Standing in the entrance was Garcia, linked in arm with Reid. He had agreed to walk her down although he didn't want to. He couldn't say no to her.

As the two got to the alter, Reid went to the right behind Hotch, and Garcia handed Emily her flower's.

Later, the bishop smiled. "You may kiss the bride."

Derek pulled Penelope into his arms, placing a strong, loving, passionate kiss on her lips as he felt her arms wrap around his neck. Smiling, Penelope looked up at him once the kiss was over. "I love you."

"I love you, Mrs. Morgan."

"I love the sound of that."

The after party was the best, everybody decided.

Garcia sat smiling, with Derek at a table while everybody had their fun. She bounced Jennifer lightly, JJ and Emily sitting with her.

"Want to dance?" Hotch asked Emily, and everybody smiled.

"Definitely." she answered and stood, following him to the dance floor.

Garcia smiled, "Lets dance hot stuff," she said, while holding Jennifer, and dragging Derek to the dance floor behind, leaving JJ and Reid to fend for themselves.

"Time to throw the bouquet," Derek called, laughing.

Garcia smiled and turned her back to the crowd of her friends, tossing the roses in the air.

The most likely person caught them. JJ.

Derek laughed, "Guess who'll be next?"

Reid blushed as JJ wrapped her arms around him.

"Seems we'll have another wedding on the way, then?" asked Hotch, smiling.


I hope you liked the last chapter. Review please. Tell me if you want me to write more stories. Heck, I will if you don't tell me to.
