Queen For A Day-Ch 10
Epilogue- 1 Year Later On Christmas Day
Derek Morgan was all smiles as he holds his newborn son Hank Spencer Morgan in his arms as he watches his family open gifts all around him, his wife Penelope Garcia Morgan smiles as she takes the sleeping baby and puts him in his swing and turns it on. Hank was a surprise, now Derek and Penelope wanted to start a family they just didn't know it would happen so soon, it was only a couple of months after their wedding when she found out she was pregnant.
The pregnancy had been a breeze for her and when her water broke on the 20th of December she was nervous at first but when they put her little prince into her arms the only thing she felt was love. Derek smiled as he handed Penelope a box, she said, "what's this"?, he said, "open it and see my love", she tore the paper open and laughed as she pulled out a small tiara that said, "QUEEN BABY GIRL" on it.
She kissed his lips and said, "am I still your queen"?, he said, "now and forever baby girl, now and forever", she sighed happily as she laid back and put her head on her husbands shoulder as they watched everybody open their gifts. After a few minutes she handed Derek a box and said, "this one is from me and Hank".
Everybody watched as Derek opened the box and pulled out a plaque that said, "CASTLE MORGAN", he laughed and said, "well I guess that would make me king if your queen". She grinned and said, "and don't forget about our little prince", he kissed her lips and said, "you and Hank are my life and I can't wait to see what this year brings us" and as he kissed her lips again everybody said, "awwwww" making them laugh as they pulled apart.
By the time all of the gifts were open everybody got everything they could have ever hoped for, Henry laughed and said, "Santa was good to all of us huh mommy"?, JJ said, "he sure was buddy, he sure was". JJ and Emily grinned at each other as they put one small package in their husbands laps, Hotch said, "what's this"?, Reid said, "wait, who got this"?, Emily said, "just smile and open the boxes boy".
Penelope leaned in and whispered something into Dereks ear and he grinned as he watched the men opening their boxes, the men then pulled out a baby rattle. Reid said, "was this suppose to go to Hank"?, JJ said, "alright now boys, read what is written on them", Reid and Hotch looked at each other and then at the rattles.
Hotch looked up at Emily and said, "really"?, she nodded her head and JJ said, "Spence what's wrong"?, he looked up at her and had tears of joy streaming down his face, He pulled her into his arms and said, "I love you so much JJ', she kissed his lips and said, "I love you to Spence", she then said, "alright boys read what's written on your rattles".
Hotch and Reid turned their rattles around and said, "BABIES FIRST CHRISTMAS 2018", Fran said, "by this time next year we'll have 2 or who knows maybe news of a third new baby". Derek said, "easy ma Penelope just gave birth 4 days ago, don't you think she might need time to rest a little before you start asking for another grandbaby".
Fran opened her mouth and Sarah and Desiree said in unison, "I'M NOT GETTING ANY YOUNGER YA KNOW" causing everybody to laugh as Fran threw cushions from the couch at her girls. Penelope sighed happily and said, "MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY", everybody then in response said, "MERRY CHRISTMASSSS".
The rest of the day was spent with the kids playing with their toys and with the women playing with Hank while the men were busy making plans to work on the nurseries. Penelope glanced up as Derek said, "I love you my queen", she laughed and said ,"and I love you to my chocolate king, now and forever".
