Finding Love Across the Pond

Chapter 11

NPPOV:

Spencer and I are sitting in our living room with my mum, dad, Derek and Pen looking at wedding plans.

"Natalie's mother and I will be paying for this wedding and we would love to meet with Spencer's parents." My dad told us.

"About that Mr. Poynter my mother is in a Sanitarium and my father walked out on us when I was ten. But my mother has met Natalie and knows about the baby. She will be there but my father will not." Spencer told my dad.

"Dad…um Penelope has some ideas about the wedding and we wanted to look it over before we decide anything." I tell them.

Penelope excitedly came over and took out her planner. "Alright…here are some places where Spencer and Natalie can get married. Quantico Lutheran Church that is where our friend JJ and her husband William got married and that is also where my husband and I got married. We also we're thinking of getting someone to arrange the menu with no fish because of the two pregnant ladies in the room. And have the phone numbers of local bakeries that specialize in wedding cakes." Penelope said very excitedly to us and my parents.

"We can do that. I want to be married in a place that represents the nice marriages for my friends and family. I already went to a dress fitting that will accommodate my growing pregnancy belly and chosen my bridesmaid dresses the only one that needs to be refitted is Penelope's gown." I told them and my mother walks up to me and hugs me.

SRPOV:

When everyone left our house Natalie and I went into our room and now we are glowing in the afterglow.

"That was good babe" Natalie tells me.

"I agree" I kiss her.

"I guess all the stories of Penelope telling me about having sex while you're pregnant is true" Natalie giggles.

I put my hand on her belly and Natalie gasps and so do I. "Did the baby just kick?"

Natalie tears up and giggles. I just felt my baby kick and it is the best thing in the world. I move my head to her belly and softly kiss it. "Hi baby its Daddy. Mommy and I love you so much. We want you to be healthy and strong when you come into the world. You will have some cousins Jack, Henry and when the twins are born that's four friends to play with. Everyone loves you. Your grandparents and your aunts and uncles!" I go up to kiss Natalie on the lips.

"That's sweet Spencer you will be a great daddy I can see it now. Our son or daughter will be loved and feel safe when you're around and so does mommy when she knows that her sexy and incredible soon-to-be husband is with her." Natalie tells me with tears in her eyes. I kiss her tears away and kiss her again softly on the lips.

Three Weeks Later…The Wedding

NPPOV:

In a few moments I will be Mrs. Natalie Reid, wife of Dr. Spencer Reid. The girls, my mum and my dad are in the bridal chamber with me waiting for the wedding to start. I'm so happy that the morning sickness has stopped I couldn't handle that on my wedding day and honeymoon. I'm in the beginning of my second trimester and just a hormonal mess. The girls are wearing lavender dresses with lilies in their bouquets. I feel the baby kick from excitement he or she knows that today mommy and daddy are getting married. One of the church's staff tells us that it's almost time and we make our way to the entrance of the sanctuary. The girls go into the ceremony while my father and I are waiting for the cue to go in as well.

"Well Scamp I guess it's almost time for me to give my only daughter to the man that will be your soul mate for the rest of your life. I love you Natalie and happy that you are getting married to the nicest man I've ever met." He kisses my cheek and the water works start. Damn hormones everything is maximized.

The wedding march starts and we go into the ceremony and when I see Spencer I smile and start to tear up. It seems like forever until my dad and I are near the minister and the wedding can begin.

"We're here today to celebrate the marriage of Spencer and Natalie who gives this woman to this man?"

"Here mother and I do, Reverend." My father tells him and the tears just keep on coming.

"Spencer and Natalie have written their own vows. Spencer you may start."

"Natalie you're my soul mate and my best and truest friend. When I met you I felt lost and alone. I wasn't happy anymore but when I saw your breath taking smile I knew that my life is starting to feel alive again. When we started dating I knew that you were going to be the one for me and here we are today getting married and expecting a baby in mere months. You are my lover, friend and the mother of my child and hopefully more to come."

"Spencer when I met you I was new to this country and was starting my new career as a profiler to the BAU. You were the first person of the team I met and I knew that you were the one for me when you offered to help me with my bags even with your shoulder bag already overflowing with files. Then we started to be romantically committed to each other and now are expecting the first of many children together and I'm the happiest woman on the planet."

"Spencer, repeat after me. I, Spencer Andrew Reid"

"I, Spencer Andrew Reid"

"Take you, Natalie Anne Poynter"

"To be my wedded wife"

"To have and to hold from this day forward"

"For better or worse"

"For richer or poorer"

"In sickness and in health"

"To love and to cherish"

"From this day forward until death do us part."

"Natalie, repeat after me. I, Natalie Anne Poynter."

"I, Natalie Anne Poynter"

"Take you, Spencer Andrew Reid"

"To be my wedded husband"

"To have and to hold from this day forward"

"For better or worse"

"For richer or poorer"

"In sickness and in health"

"To love and to cherish"

"From this day forward until death do us part."

"May I have the rings?" the Reverend asks and Henry toddles to Derek and Penelope and they give Spencer and Natalie the rings.

"Spencer, take this ring and place it on Natalie's finger and repeat after me. I give you this ring as a visible and constant symbol."

"I give you this ring as a visible and constant symbol"

"Of my promise to be with you as long as I live"

"Of my promise to be with you as long as I live" Spencer slid the ring onto my finger.

"Natalie, take this ring and place it on Spencer's finger and repeat after me. I give you this ring as a visible and constant symbol."

"I give you this ring as a visible and constant symbol"

"Of my promise to be with you as long as I live"

"Of my promise to be with you as long as I live" I slid the ring onto Spencer's finger.

"By the power vested in me by the State of Virginia, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride." Spencer put one hand on my belly and the other on my back as he pulled me closer and gave me the first kiss as my husband.

Spencer and I broke apart and waited for the Reverend to continue. "I present you Dr. and Mrs. Spencer Reid." Penelope gave Natalie her bouquet and Spencer and Natalie descended the hall and went outside for the pictures.

As they got outside I kissed Spencer again and the baby kicked. "The baby sure loves it when mommy and daddy kiss and are happy."

"I love you so much Natalie."

SRPOV

The wedding reception…

We had the wedding reception at a local hotel and it was the best place for the reception.

"And their first appearance Dr. and Mrs. Spencer Reid."

Everyone clapped as we got into the reception hall. We got our meals chicken and potato salad.

Now came the toasts. Derek stood up and took the microphone.

"Alright I'm Spencer's best friend and the co-worker for Spencer and Natalie. I've known Spencer for seven years and that whole time I've been trying to figure this kid out. For anyone who doesn't know it Spencer is a genius with the IQ of 187, an eidetic memory and can read 20,000 words a minute. When I first met him he was the most awkward guy I've ever met. He lived and breathed work. I tried numerous times to get him to a club and none of them succeeded. Until recently I thought that he was never going to be with a girl in a romantic way instead of the brotherly way like Emily, JJ and my lovely wife Penelope. When Natalie came to work for us I immediately knew that he had a crush on him and so did she because his behavior was different with her than other women. Now here we are married men and about to become fathers. Good luck man and to the future." Everyone applauded and I nodded and smiled. Derek handed the microphone to Penelope.

"I met Natalie the same day Spencer did. I immediately hugged her and she was kind of freaked out but we quickly became the greatest of friends. I knew that she had a thing for junior g-man here and I knew he felt the same. They don't call me the goddess of all-knowing at work for nothing. I'm proud to say that she has become a close friend like JJ and Emily are to me and I have gained another sister. Now I'm proud to say that we are going to be new mommies together and our children will be the greatest friends. I love you both so much and good luck.

Next came the cake and I could tell that this was the cake that would satisfy Natalie's chocolate cravings. We walked up and cut the first piece and fed each other the cake. Natalie put some of the frosting on my nose and kissed it off. It was almost time for the first dance and I chose the song Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls since I know that she loves that song. As we danced I kissed her passionately on the lips.

"Hope about soon we go to the suite and have some fun."

I nodded and we quickly got to the suite.
