Ficlet One: Hero's Week

Kyle Age 5 and a half: Reid-Morgan Household

"Almost ready buddy?" Derek asked from the Kitchen.

"Almost Papa!" Kyle shouted.

"Be patient, you know he doesn't move quick." Penelope said, scolding Derek from behind her hot pink flamboyant glasses. Penelope dressed in a bright pink poodle skirt and accessories.

"Besides, Spencer is with him." Penelope continued.

"I know, I am just antsy to get going. This is our first FBI BAU Halloween party with him. I don't want to be late for it" Derek said.

Just as he said that his two favorite boys walked around the corner. Kyle dressed up as a teddy bear replica of "teddy." They managed to do this only because of the help of Aunt Penny and Grandma Morgan. Each women handmade the costume piece by piece. The bear even had a knitted shirt with the name teddy stitched into it. Next to Kyle was Spencer dressed up as a Magician.

"Auntie Penny!" Shouted Kyle upon seeing his Aunt.

"Hi my mini Reid-Morgan and Teddy!" Penelope said, kneeling down and kissing the giggling boy who was holding none other than "teddy."

"You look very nice Buddy." Derek said, lifting the boy of his feet and placing him carefully on his hip.

"Alright, lets head out. You riding with us Baby Girl?" Derek asked, grabbing his keys and heading to the car.

"Of course!" She said, hot on his heels with Reid right behind her.

BAU Headquarters – 1 hour later

"There they are," said, Rossi looking the same as normal.

"Hey, I see you didn't dress up again this year." Derek said, glancing at the older man.

"Actually, I am a CIA agent. Where is Kyle, I have something for the boy." Rossi said, putting on dark shades.

"Really, CIA agent Rossi? As for Kyle he took a pit stop with Spencer to the bathroom." Derek said, with a snort.

In the next moment the mentioned individuals walked in. Upon seeing Rossi he wiggled out of Spencer's grip.

"Grandpa!" squealed, moving as fast as he could to Rossi.

"There is my boy! Look what I have for you." Rossi said, pulling a chocolate loli-pop in the shape of a pumpkin out of his pocket.

Kyle took it and mumbled a thanks as he hugged his "grandpa."

"Where are Henry and Jack?" he asked, gazing around for his friends.

"They are in the conference room with Hotch and Will." Rossi said.

"Papa, can we go please!" Kyle asked, flashing his big eyes at Derek.

"Sure bud lets go." Derek said, placing his son on his hip once again.

Authors Note:

First, big thanks for the the 2 reviews from Ignacia Kitty Dolohov-Potter and guest! Glad you both enjoyed it and hope you cried happy tears!

Second, hope you enjoy this brief Halloween inspired ficlet! I had so much fun doing it and could not resist the "Grandpa Rossi" title. I mean who else could take that spot. Some history on that will come later in "A New Journey."

Again, this one is unedited. I will repost as soon as it has gone through the beta!
