A/N- So here is the next chapter..... I hope you enjoy it.... the flashback scene was a last minute addition after I had several requests to write about the Ambassador's reaction.... please let me know what you think...

ENJOY....

The sound of a phone ringing screamed loudly through the dark house. Emily groaned as she glanced over at the clock.

"Who the hell is calling us at 3 in the morning?" Emily mumbled as she extracted herself from JJ, who had pulled the pillow over her ears to try and silence the horrible noise. JJ had just gotten home from a two-week trip and was exhausted. After proceeding to knock everything off the nightstand, Emily found the phone. "Hello?" Emily mumbled.

"Mom?"

"Yes sweetie; what is it?" Emily asked her daughter, trying to hide a laugh. Who the hell else did she think would be answering the phone? Emily thought to herself.

"It's time." AJ said quickly.

"Time? Time for what?" Emily asked, the sleep still clouding her mind.

"My water just broke. It's time." AJ repeated. "Brad and I are on the way to the hospital." Emily struggled to focus on what AJ was saying. Then suddenly it hit her. Water, Time, Hospital… oh my god the baby! Emily yelled to herself.

"Oh my god! Are you serious?" Emily yelled as she jumped up from the bed. Having felt Emily jump from the bed, JJ pulled the pillow from her face and rolled over to look at her wife.

"No mom, I'm joking. Of course I'm serious!" AJ screamed as a contraction ripped through her body. "Son of a bitch! Why didn't mom tell me it hurt this bad?" AJ said as she began to relax.

"How far apart are your contractions?" Emily asked as she began pacing the floor. JJ got up out of bed and walked over to Emily; she wrapped her arms around her waist, forcing her to stop walking. JJ put her chin on Emily's shoulder so she could listen to what AJ was saying.

"Ten minutes. Every ten horrible minutes!" AJ moaned.

"Okay honey, just relax. We will be there soon okay?" Emily said trying to calm her daughter down.

"Please hurry." The two exchanged goodbyes and Emily hung up her phone.

"Oh my god, our little girl is having a baby." Emily said as she stared at the phone in her hand.

"You okay?" JJ asked.

"I'm not sure." Emily replied turning in JJ's arms. "We're about to be grandparents." JJ nodded but before she could reply Tom walked into the room.

"Mommy?" He asked as he wiped the sleep from his eyes.

"Hey little man." JJ said as she let go of Emily and walked over to her son, who had already climbed up on their bed. "Did we wake you?" Tom nodded. "I'm sorry, mommy's just excited. Your sister just called and guess what?"

"What?" Tom asked as he snuggled against JJ's side.

"She is going to have the baby." Tom pulled away from JJ and looked up at her with a huge smile. "Your little nephew is going to be here soon."

"Really?"

"Yep. So why don't you go get dressed and we'll head to the hospital, okay?"

"Oh, this is soooo cool!" Tom yelled as he jumped down from the bed and took off towards his room. JJ couldn't help but smile as she watched her son run off. She had never told Emily this, but she had actually been really nervous about adopting another child, especially since they were getting older and they had been so lucky with AJ that she was sure that they were walking into trouble. She kept waiting for all of the parenting nightmares that you see on television but so far nothing. Tom, much like AJ, was an ideal child, an ideal child who loved his mothers and his sister very much.

"I guess we need to get ready too." Emily replied breaking JJ from her thoughts.

"Yeah, we'll call Morgan and Garcia on the way to the hospital." JJ smiled as she stood up. "I wonder if she called Kelly?"

"I don't know. We'll ask her when we get there. If she hasn't already, I think we should wait till she is a little closer. Christy doesn't need to be sitting there all night."

"Ever the over-protective mom." JJ teased as she kissed Emily lightly on the cheek.

"That's why you love me." Emily teased right back.

An hour later, they arrived at the hospital and quickly found their way to the Labor and Delivery waiting room. The nurse at the desk said she would tell Brad and AJ that they had arrived. A few minutes later Brad came out to greet them.

"Hey Brad. How is she?" JJ asked after Brad hugged both her and Emily.

"She's good." Brad said as he picked up Tom. "Hey little man. You excited?" Tom nodded but JJ could tell he was starting to get sleepy again. She smiled as her son laid his head down on Brad's shoulder. "The nurses are hooking her up to all the machines so she said give her about ten minutes and then we could go back their again. She's only allowed two visitors at a time so if you two want to go back for a little while, I can hang out here with Tom."

"Are you sure?" Emily asked.

"Yeah, that it's fine. You're her mothers after all." Brad laughed. "Plus my parents should be here soon. Did you call anyone else?"

"We called Morgan who was going to call the rest of the team. Apparently they had a plan worked out to drop all the kids off at Andy's mother's house when this happened. He said once that was done they would swing by, pick up my mom, and then be here." JJ smiled at how organized everyone was. It was like a small military operation.

"Have you called Kelly?" Emily asked.

"No. AJ wanted to but I told her that it would be best to wait till she was a little further along. I didn't like the idea of Christy sitting out her on these hard chairs for that long. I know she is only 14 weeks along, but still."

"Boy you are growing on me more and more everyday." Emily smiled as she put her arm around his shoulder. Once the initial shock of the engagement and the baby,

Emily had truly grown to like Brad. Of course, no one would ever be good enough for her little girl, but he was a close second. Plus she and Brad shared one distinct characteristic, a characteristic that drove both AJ and JJ nuts; they were both extremely over protective of the ones they loved.

"So I can quit worrying about you shooting me?" Brad asked laughing.

"I wouldn't go that far." Morgan teased from behind him. "After all you did knock up 'our' little girl." Morgan laughed as he patted the soon to be father on the back. "You nervous?"

"Oh you have no idea." Brad replied as he placed a now sleeping Tom down on one of the chairs and turned to greet the rest of AJ's family.

"I'm going to be a great-grandma this is so exciting." Angie beamed as she hugged JJ.

"Well at least one of us is happy about that title." Emily's mom snorted as her private nurse pushed her into the waiting room.

"Mom, what are you doing here? I told you..."

"I don't care what you told me. I am here to see my great-grandson being born." About two months ago Ambassador Prentiss had suffered a mild stroke, which had left her extremely weak. She was now forced to ride in a wheel chair, which drove her crazy. Emily made sure she had the best private nurses money could buy and convinced her mom to sell the big house and move into a small condo not too far away from them.

"But you should be at home in bed, not…"

"Emily Elizabeth Prentiss, I am not an invalid. I can come to the hospital and wait for my great-grandson to be born just like everyone else." Elizabeth spit out, causing everyone to be quiet. Emily couldn't help but smirk at how the words great-grandson continually hung in her mother's throat.

Flashback….

"Mother?" Emily yelled as she and JJ entered the "Prentiss Mansion" as JJ liked to refer to it.

"In the kitchen." Emily heard her mother yell back. Emily took a deep breath and she and JJ made their way to the back of the house. Emily was a nervous wreck and she had practically dragged JJ along for support. She knew that her mother was not going to take news of a great –grandchild any better then she took the news of the first grandchild. Oh, she loved her grandchildren to death and would do anything for them, but the thought of being a grandma had terrified her. It was a feeling that Emily could now relate too.

"Hello mother." Emily said with a slight smile as they walked into the kitchen.

"Well this is a surprise." Elizabeth smiled at the sight of her daughter and daughter-in-law. "To what do I owe the honor?"

"Well, we thought maybe you would like to join us for lunch." Emily stated, still holding onto JJ's hand for dear life.

"Oh for heaven sakes what is it this time?" Elizabeth asked immediately. "I would have thought by now that all of our lunch dates would be over. I mean what other secrets could you have that you are afraid to tell me?" JJ couldn't help but laugh at the Ambassador's statement.

"Who says we have something to tell you?" Emily defended. Elizabeth just stared back at her daughter. "What? Do we have to have a reason to take you out to lunch?"

"Emily we have established this trend a long time ago, so please spare me the trip to a restaurant and tell me what is going on."

"Okay fine, but just so you know, I blame you for this." Emily replied.

"Blame me for what?" Elizabeth asked back confused.

"For Brad." Emily snapped.

"Why? What is wrong with Brad? He is a nice young man from a nice family and AJ really seems to care for him. Plus if I am not mistaken he loves her very much."

"Oh I have no doubt that he loves her." Emily huffed.

"Ok then explain to me how this is my fault."

"If you hadn't insisted that AJ come live with you for the summer she would have never met him!"

"Emily, honey, like it or not, your little girl is growing up." Elizabeth replied. "No mother wants to see her daughter get married, trust me I know," Elizabeth said as she smiled over at JJ, "but you can only hope that when the time comes, she will marry the person that loves her wholeheartedly. Every little girl wants her Prince Charming or, in your case, Cinderella." The Ambassador laughed.

"That's a nice theory mother, but what does it say when Prince Charming knocks up your little girl." Emily had to admit that was not quite the way she had envisioned telling her mother that AJ was pregnant but it just sort of came out.

"Excuse me? Did you just say…? I mean, is AJ…?" Elizabeth struggled to say the word.

"Surprise…your granddaughter is pregnant." Emily finished for her.

"I'm going to kill him. I still have contacts in…"

"Oh for the love of god," JJ rolled her eyes. "Would both of you stop it? AJ is in love and, from what I can tell, so is Brad. We should be happy for them. Not plotting his death. So they went at things a little backwards. They're happy. We are going to be grandparents, whether you …" JJ stopped as she heard the Ambassador gasp.

"HOLY SHIT!" Elizabeth yelled. "I'm going to be a great-grandmother!"

"That is usually how it works, mother." Emily replied as she watched her mother stomp off. "Where are you going?" She yelled after her.

"To the liquor cabinet!" Elizabeth yelled back.

"Some things never change." JJ laughed.

"That's right you tell her, Elizabeth." Angie said quickly. "Now, why don't you and I go get some coffee?" Angie said as she walked up behind the wheel chair and began pushing. Angie and Elizabeth had become good friends after Tom passed away. Angie had even gone over to stay with Elizabeth for a few months each year while she was still living in Paris. Now that Elizabeth was back home in the states, their friendship had only grown stronger.

"You know you are not suppose to drink…" JJ started but was cut off by Angie's glare. JJ shrugged in defeat and watched the two women head off for coffee.

"See, I told you those two becoming friends was a bad idea." Emily said as she turned to JJ.

"I think you might be right." JJ said with a laugh.

A few minutes later, Emily and JJ made their way back to AJ's room. When they walked in, they were met with a pair of very scared eyes.

"Mommy, I can't do this." AJ said with tears in her eyes. Immediately JJ was by her bed holding her hand. Emily decided to kind of hang back and let JJ take this one; after all, of the three of them, she was the only one who had been through labor before.

"Oh honey, yes you can." AJ adamantly shook her head. "Sweetie, look at me." AJ slowly turned to face her mom. "You can do this. I know you can."

"I don't know how to be a mom." AJ cried.

"Nobody knows how to be a mom at this point but it will come. You'll see. It will be the most natural thing in the world."

"Pumpkin, your mom is right." Emily said as she walked over to the other side of the bed. "I didn't have a clue about how to be a mom when you were born. I was scared out of my mind. What if I did something wrong? What if I couldn't take care of you? But you know what?"

"What?" AJ sniffled.

"As soon as that doctor placed you in my arms, I knew that everything was going to be okay. All those fears of not being a good parent went away."

"So you weren't nervous anymore?" AJ asked as she wiped the tears from her face.

"Oh hell no, I was still nervous. Ask your mom how long it took me to put the car seat in for the first time." JJ couldn't help but laugh at the memory. "I was still nervous, but I wasn't afraid anymore. You're going to make mistakes sweetie, but those things happen."

"And you are going to have a ton of questions." JJ added. "But that is what me and your mother and Brad's mother are for." JJ smiled as she watched her daughter begin to relax. Only to be gripped with another contraction. AJ grabbed Emily's hand and squeezed for dear life. "Just breathe, sweetie." JJ said as she tried to help AJ through the pain.

"Oh for the love of god, AJ." Emily whined as she massaged her sore hand.

"Oh hush, you big baby." JJ teased. "That just makes up for not being there for me to squeeze your hand when AJ was born."

"Hey I was there in time for you to push. I just missed all the stuff before that."

"Hey guys? Can we focus on me for a minute." AJ asked she watched her parents bicker.

"I'm sorry, sweetie." JJ replied turning her attention back to AJ.

"When it's time, the doctor said I could have two people back here. Brad and I would like you to be here with us." AJ told her mother.

"Really? Are you sure?" JJ asked with tears in her eyes.

"Yes, I really would like you back here with me."

"Well there is no other place I rather be." JJ leaned over and gave her daughter a kiss on the forehead just as another contraction hit and AJ grabbed for Emily's hand.

"Damn it! What's wrong with JJ's hand?" Emily asked through gritted teeth.

Around 9am, AJ was at 7cm so Emily decided to call Kelly. Just like JJ, AJ was progressing far quicker than most first time moms. About 45 minutes later, Kelly and Christy arrived at the hospital.

"So how is she?" Kelly asked immediately after accepting a round of hugs from everyone.

"She's good. Doctor said that it shouldn't be more than a couple more hours." Emily told her.

"Can I go see her?" Kelly asked.

"Sure let me show you the way. Brad is back there right now but she can have up to two visitors at a time." Emily explained.

"Hey Emily, wait" Kelly said once they were by themselves.

"Yes?"

"I know why you didn't call sooner and I just wanted to say thank you. Things have been a little rough with the morning sickness and last night was probably the first good night's sleep we've had in a while."

"Yeah, well there was no point in making her come down here and sit all night." Emily smiled as she wrapped her arm around Kelly's shoulder and pulled her close. "You and Christy may not be legally our family but you are in the only way that counts and you should know by now that I do everything in my power to protect my family."

"Thank you Emily." Kelly said as she wiped a tear from her cheek.

"You're welcome." Emily smiled. "Now AJ is just down there, room 304." Kelly nodded and made her way to AJ's room.

"Hey there girl, how are you feeling?" Kelly asked as she walked into the room.

"Oh so much better now that I have these wonderful drugs." AJ laughed.

"What happened to natural child birth?"

"Oh woman please, that is so overrated. You tell Christy to get the drugs; they are flawless. I don't know how mom did it."

"I'll be sure to pass it on." Kelly laughed.

"I'm glad that you're here, because Brad and I have something to ask you."

"Ok. Shoot."

"We were hoping that you would be Spencer's godmother." AJ said only to have Brad's mouth hit the floor.

"Are you kidding me?" Brad groaned. "Do you realize what you just said?" Brad stated still in shock.

"What we talked about this? You said that having Kelly be Spencer's godmother was a… oh my god, I can't believe I did that." By this time Kelly was dying. Brad and AJ had made a point not tell anyone the baby's name. They wanted it to be surprise for everyone and now, here they were three hours away, and AJ had let it slip.

"It's okay AJ, your secret is safe with me." Kelly laughed. "And yes I would be honored to be Spencer's godmother." Kelly put extra emphasis on his name. "He's going to flip when he finds out, you know that right?"

"Yeah I know." AJ smiled as she thought about what her uncle's reaction was going to be. "But you know that puts the pressure on you. You know to find a name that really means something."

"Don't worry, Christy and I already have a few ideas out there." Kelly smiled.

"Oh really like what?" AJ asked.

"Yeah, I don't think so." Kelly teased as AJ pouted.

Three hours later Brad came out to get JJ because it was time for AJ to push. Emily was a nervous wreck. Everyone paced around the waiting room as the waited for JJ to come back out. For Emily it felt like the longest 45 minutes of her life but finally they saw Brad coming down the hallway with a huge grin on his face.

"It's a boy!" He yelled as he accepted congratulatory hugs from everyone.

"Congratulations Brad." Emily smiled. "How is AJ?"

"She is great. I swear that is the most amazing thing I have ever seen. Just wait Kelly, you have no idea."

"When can we see him?" Brad's mother asked.

"Well, the doctor has given us special permission for everyone to come back but just for like twenty minutes or so. Then in a few hours we will be moved to another room and then we can have all the visitors we want." Brad explained.

"Well, lead the way daddy." Garcia said as she looped her arm with his.

Emily was amazed at the scene in front of her. There, standing by the bed, was her wife holding their grandson. JJ looked up at Emily with tears in her eyes. Emily didn't say anything; she walked over and wrapped her arm around JJ's waist.

"Oh my god, he is so handsome." Emily said with her own tears falling.

"He is isn't he?" AJ beamed from the bed.

"He looks just like you, Brad." Emily said as she ran a finger down his cheek.

"Oh, I think there is a lot of Jareau in there, too." Brad replied back.

Soon the baby was being passed around the room. Once the baby was safe within Reid's arms they decided to tell everyone the baby's name.

"So what do you think Uncle Spence?" AJ asked.

"Oh AJ he is… I'm at a loss for words." Reid replied as he stared down at the little bundle in his arms.

"Well I hope he can live up to his namesake."

"What do you mean?" Reid asked confused.

"Well I mean Spencer James Smith has a lot to live up to." All the eyes in the room immediately fell on Reid.

"What… did… are you sure?" Reid asked struggling to find the words.

"Yes, we're sure." Brad said as he sat down the bed next to AJ, wrapping his arm around her shoulder. Reid couldn't help the tear that escaped his eye.

"I am very honored." Reid replied. "More than you will ever know."

"Can I hold him?" Tom asked breaking up the serious moment.

"Sure you can, but you have to be really, really careful." Emily explained. She led Tom over to the couch. Once he was seated, Emily took Spencer from Reid and placed him carefully in the six-year-old's arms. Emily sat down next to Tom and, without being too obvious, made sure her son had a good grip on his nephew.

As JJ stood there and watched her ever growing family she couldn't help but smile. She now had one grandchild and another on the way.

"It's amazing isn't it?" Angie smiled as she stood beside JJ.

"What is?"

"Knowing that everything you ever taught her led to this moment."

"Dad once told me that the day AJ was born was one of the happiest in his life and I think I now know what he meant." JJ wiped a tear from her cheek as she continued to watch the scene before her. JJ knew life just didn't get much better than this.
