A/N: I have toyed with Hotch's and Emily's ages for the sake of the story. Please don't hate me beautiful readers. So, for the sake of the fic, Hotch is 35 and Emily is 32. Sorry about the change, but it's needed.

**

The drive home was full of laughter and song, which surprised Hotch. He expected Riley to totally lose it. Maybe he had to give his daughter more credit. She was a bit mouthy and she faced problems with jokes, which was not normal for him, but she was good.

"We're here." Hotch said, pulling up in front of Haley's house.

"Are you going to come in and tell Jack?" Riley asked.

"Actually, Jack is staying with us tonight. I called your mom and she gave it a thumbs up." Hotch explained.

"So I get to spend Sunday with mom?" She asked, sounding frightened.

"What's wrong with spending Sundays with your mom?" Emily asked.

"She makes me go to church." Riley shuddered.

"Oh, you and church. I talked to your mother about this. She said you haven't been in weeks." Hotch said, rolling his eyes.

"Boo." Riley said, swinging the door open. Hotch and Emily joined her at Haley's door, as they had to wait for Jack.

"Hey." Haley said, motioning for them to all come in. "Jack will be ready soon. He decided he'd pack his own bag for the night, and he thought that underwear was not a necessity." Emily and Riley laughed and Hotch smiled.

"It's alright. We don't have any other plans."

"So, why do you want Jack tonight?" Haley asked suddenly.

"Actually," Hotch began. "We kind of need to talk to him about something."

"Oh?" Haley asked.

"Emily's knocked up." Riley said. Hotch was worried that Emily didn't want Haley to know yet, but she was smiling at what Riley said. Haley looked over at Riley.

"Don't say knocked up Ri, it sounds bad."

"Sorry, Miss Prentiss is with child." Riley said sarcastically. Haley rolled her eyes and motioned for Riley to go away. She kissed Hotch on the cheek and went upstairs.

"You're pregnant?" Haley asked.

"Yeah." Emily said happily.

"Wow, big step." Haley said.

"Well it wasn't like they planned it or anything." Riley yelled down the stairs.

"Go away you nerd." Haley yelled.

"You gonna make me mama?" Riley laughed.

"Yes." Haley growled. After the drastic change in Haley's tone, they heard Riley's footsteps increase in speed. Before she darted away, Hotch was sure he heard her say, 'oh shit!' but he couldn't be sure. Haley laughed. "You sure you want another one like that?"

"I don't think the Earth could handle another one like that." Hotch pointed out. "She's pissed about church though."

"This isn't my first rodeo, cowboy. I know how she is at church." Haley laughed. "She's missed enough church for a lifetime."

"I hated going when I was her age." Emily said.

"Yeah, it's normal for kids her age." Haley agreed. "Anyways, congrats on the baby! You must be so excited."

"It was a...surprise, that's for sure." Emily laughed.

"Well, that can be just as good. Trust me." Haley said. Emily looked at her strangely. She knew that her and Hotch had been together since high school. Did they have an accident baby?

"Riley." Hotch pointed out, noticing Emily's confused looks.

"Wha-?"

"Emily, do the math. I'm 35, Riley's 15. What 20 year old decides to have a baby?" Aaron laughed.

"Well, that makes sense." Emily said, laughing at the fact that she hadn't realized.

"Yeah, my dad's used to whoops babies. Maybe next time he should wear a-" Riley began shouting down the stairs but Haley cut her off.

"RILEY! So help me God, I'm going to make you help at Sunday school if you don't shut up." Haley threatened.

"Good Catholic mom. Use the lord's name in vain why don't you?" Riley mumbled.

"Sorry." Haley said.

"I think she's funny." Emily admitted.

"Me too." Haley agreed. "But she has a habit of going too far, so I have to stop her before she starts."

"I'M READY." Jack yelled down the stairs.

"Alright buddy, we're waiting for you." Hotch yelled. Jack hurried down the stairs and flung himself into his father's arms. Once he was satisfied with his father's embrace, he jumped into Emily's arms.

"Well, it's been a slice." Haley said. "See you tomorrow Jack."

"Bye Mommy!" Jack said, tugging on his father's sleeve.

"Bye baby."

"So Jack," Hotch began once they were in the car. "Emily and I have some big news."

"We're getting a puppy?" Jack asked hopefully.

"No." Hotch laughed. "We're not getting a puppy."

"Are you sure?"

"I'm pretty sure that's not the news Jack." Emily said.

"Oh."

"I think it's better than a puppy." Hotch said.

"A WII?" Jack yelled.

"No Jack, it's not a Wii."

"But I think we should get a Wii Dad. We need a Wii." Jack pleaded.

"Maybe for your birthday Jack." Emily said, knowing that if he wasn't given a 'maybe,' he wouldn't drop it.

"Yay!"

"Jack, can we talk about the big news please?" Hotch begged.

"Yes, you're the one talking about puppies and Wiis! Sheesh!" Jack said, and Hotch rolled his eyes.

"Jack, Emily's going to have a baby." He said.

"Tomorrow?"

"No honey, it'll be a while." Emily explained.

"Do they have to deliver it to our house?"

"Jack, the baby's in Emily's belly right now." Hotch said. He prayed that would be a good enough explanation. Emily knew it wouldn't be. Jack was six, and six year olds loved their questions.

"She ATE it?" Jack was thoroughly discussed. Hotch sighed while Emily giggled into her hands. She was tempted to just agree with it to annoy Aaron, but she figured that this was not the time.

"No Jack. Emily did not eat the baby. That's where the baby grows."

"My friend Benny's mom had a baby this one time. She growed SO fat! Like this!" Jack gestured to his stomach and stretched his arms out as far as they went. "Emmy's not gonna get fat like that right?"

"Actually I am." She laughed.

"Weird! How'd it get in there?" Jack wondered. Hotch groaned. This was the exact question that he wanted to avoid.

"Well..." He began. Aaron had no idea where to lead this conversation.

"My friend Mark said his parents maked a baby with sex. Is that how Emmy's baby got made? What's sex? Wait, how does it get OUT of her belly?" Jack asked. Hotch wanted to meet this Mark kid, and ask him why he knew what sex was. Emily was no help at all. She couldn't regain composure at all. As soon as Jack said sex, she was gone.

"Uhm...how does Mark know that?"

"His big sister Erica told him. She's nine. Mark says she know everything. I think Riley knows more than Erica." Jack said.

"Jack, how do you think the baby got in my belly?" Emily wondered.

"I don't know. I guess you and daddy put it there?" Jack thought.

"You're right." Hotch said. Emily had just saved the day.

"Oh! Okay! But how does it get out?"

"How do you think Jack?" Emily asked.

"The doctors get it out I think. Mommy has pictures in the hopspital with me when I was a baby."

"Hos-pital." Hotch corrected.

"But you're right. The doctors get the baby out." Emily said, winking at Aaron. They'd just dogged a major bullet.

"What's sex then?" Hotch paused.

"What do you think it is?" He tried to follow Emily's tactic.

"I don't know. You should tell me." Jack urged.

"It..it's. When a man...when..." Hotch tried to explain. Emily tried too, but she was having as hard a time as Aaron.

"You don't know either!" Jack snapped. "Mom said the same thing when I asked. I'll just have to ask aunty Jessica. She knows lots of stuff."

"Yes, I think you should ask Aunt Jessica. She'll know." Hotch laughed.

"Ambassador Prentiss." Elizabeth said into the phone. Emily had called to tell her the news, but apparently she was expecting a work call. That was the only time she answered her phone and said her title right away.

"Hello Mother." Emily said politely.

"Hello Emily, what a nice surprise. I am expecting a call soon, so can we make this quick?"

"Yes we can actually. I just wanted to-" She paused. Her and Hotch had decided that they'd make plans to have dinner, and they'd tell her then. Emily though about it, and Aaron was out buying pizza with Jack, and since he was 'scared' of her mother, she'd just tell her now.

"What is it Emily?"

"I'm pregnant." The other end of the line was silent for a lengthy amount of time.

"By your boss?" Her mother asked.

"Yes." Apparently her mother still had her way of making Emily feel bad about everything.

"Oh. Well, from what I can tell, Aaron Hotchner is a decent man."

"He is." Emily agreed.

"Are you keeping it?" She asked.

"Yes I am." Elizabeth paused for a few seconds.

"Do you love him?"

"Head over heals." She admitted.

"Then I couldn't be happier for you!" It didn't take a profiler to tell that the excitement was genuine.

"I can't believe you're okay with this." Emily said.

"But I am! We should have dinner together and talk about it! Tell Aaron to bring his children, they're delightful. Oh, your baby's going to be so spoiled. I can't believe I'm going to be a grandmother." Elizabeth said.

"Have I dialed the wrong number?"

"Oh Emily. We've had rough times, but I do love you."

"Yeah. I love you too." Emily said, meaning every word she said. After a few more moments of chatting, Emily hung up the phone. The boys returned with the pizza, and Emily couldn't help but giggle, remembering how intimidated Aaron was by her mother, who'd apparently had a change of heart. Everything was coming up roses for Emily...finally.

A/N: That's all for now! Pleas tell me what you thought :D
