Emily walked into the office with Hotch walking behind her. It was Monday morning and they planned to tell the rest of the team about the pregnancy. Emily had already informed Strauss, who clearly wasn't happy. It didn't matter to Emily because she got to keep her job. She was told to 'take it easy' in the field, but she put too much thought into that. Morgan was the one who tackled the unsubs anyways.

The night with Jack went quite well. Him and Aaron stayed up late watching hockey. Apparently Jack was becoming an avid fan, not just a young player. He could name most of the players on his favourite teams, and he could recite most of their statistics. Emily mostly read that night. She wasn't exactly a hockey fan, at least, she didn't like it if it wasn't live. When they returned to Haley's later that night, Riley whined about church and Jack made fun of her because he didn't have to go.

So, that day, they walked into the office happy as can be. Garcia and JJ, who hadn't talked to Emily since the night they found out about the baby, were both glad to see that she was okay. Better than that, she was happy.

"If you smiled any bigger, your face is going to break in half." JJ whispered in Emily's ear as she walked to her desk. Emily giggled, and put her bags down. She watched Hotch go up to his office. Apparently she wasn't just watching, she was staring.

"You're eyes haven't left Hotch the entire time." Morgan pointed out.

"They're in love!" Garcia quipped. She was sitting on his desk, avoiding her work.

"I wasn't saying anything bad." Morgan said defensively. "I don't ever want to take my eyes off my baby girl." Garcia laughed.

"I'm going to make coffee, anyone want anything?" Emily asked.

"Nah, we've all been here for a while. I think Reid's in there though." Derek said. Emily nodded and walked over to the coffee machine. Sure enough, Reid was making coffee, and adding six pounds of sugar.

"Late night?" She asked, and to her surprise, Reid blushed deeply.

"Not...no, not especially." He lied.

"Why do we always think that we can lie to each other?" Emily asked subtly.

"Okay, yes it was a late night. Happy?" He asked.

"No need to be snappy doctor." Emily laughed.

"Sorry, I just hate talking about my personal life." He laughed. Emily finally drew her conclusion.

"You spent the night with Catherine, didn't you?" She asked coyly. Reid turned the reddest colour she'd ever seen. Emily gasped and smiled.

"Please, don't tell anyone. Morgan would just have a field day." He said, rolling his eyes. Emily knew this was true.

"So, if you're not going to let me gossip, are you going to at least give me some details?" She said, raising her eyebrows. Reid smiled.

"It was...amazing. Catherine is just perfect."

"I'm so glad."

"Yeah, she's kind of bringing out a new side of me. I took her out dancing this weekend, and I actually danced!" He exclaimed. Reid blushed when he realized how loud he was, but Emily patted him on the shoulder, letting him know that his volume was fine.

"That's great Reid, I'm so happy for you." Emily said. Aaron and her had decided to tell everyone who didn't know about the pregnancy at the same time, but Emily changed her mind. Reid was generally the last to know about everything that happened to the team members. After he'd just confided in her, she figured she'd do the same.

"So, what's new with you Prentiss?" he asked.

"Actually, a lot." She said.

"Do I have to badger you for information, or are you easer to get information out of than me?" He said, smiling at her.

"I'm pregnant." Reid's mouth hung open a bit; he was clearly surprised.

"With a baby?" He asked. Emily laughed.

"Yes Spencer. With a baby." He couldn't believe he actually asked that question, and he couldn't believe that she used his first name.

"Yeah, sorry about that. Stupid question. Congrats Emily. That's so exciting."

"Hotch and I were going to tell the team at the end of the day, but I figured I'd tell you now."

"Who knows already?"

"You, JJ and Pen. Aaron of course, and we did have to tell Strauss." Emily listed.

"Guess I'm not the last to know this time?" He laughed.

"Nope. Morgan and Rossi are." They both smiled at each other, then Reid took Emily in his arms and embarrassed her.

"Congratulations."

"Thanks." Emily said, the smile she had been wearing throughout the whole morning got a bit bigger.

The day was long, and uneventful. No plane rides, no unsubs. Just paperwork. By the afternoon, Emily was very sick of waiting to tell everyone about the pregnancy. When Rossi and Hotch left their offices for lunch, Emily asked that everyone to join her for lunch. She exclaimed that she had huge news, and even though Hotch was a bit surprised by Emily's sudden announcement, he didn't protest. So, they all drove to a local restaurant. It was quite small; no one was in the place accept for the team. A young waitress took their orders, and returned very quickly with drinks.

"Alright!" Emily exclaimed. "My news." She looked at Hotch, and he nodded. She wasn't looking for his approval to continue, but she thought it would be nice to let him think that she was.

"Okay," said Rossi. "Inform us."

"Most of you already know, but for those of you who don't, I'm pregnant." Morgan choked on his drink, and Rossi's eyes nearly popped out of his head.

"Pregnant?" Rossi repeated.

"Yup." She said happily.

"You're having Hotch's baby?" Morgan asked.

"She is." Hotch agreed.

"Ew." Morgan said with a small smile. The rest of the team laughed, but Hotch was a bit offended.

"What do you mean 'ew'?" Hotch asked.

"He means she saw you...naked." JJ said with a shudder and again, the team couldn't help but laugh. Neither could Hotch for that matter.

"What's he like?" Garcia said, her eyes widening. This time, Hotch choked on his drink.

"Can we not?" He pleaded.

"I won't." Emily said.

"Fine, be that way." Garcia laughed.

"I really can't believe that you're having a baby." Rossi said.

"You think you were surprised." Emily murmured.

"Have you thought of any names?" Reid asked, finally contributing to the conversation.

"I've known I was pregnant for like, ten minutes. I don't even know how far along I am."

"You haven't seen a doctor yet?" Spencer's voice was full of concern.

"I'm going tomorrow. It's okay Reid." Emily laughed.

"Spencer's like that with pregnant woman. He even gave me a new fact about Henry's development every week." JJ laughed.

"Will you do that for me?" Emily asked.

"You want me to?"

"Yes!" Emily squeaked.

"Of course I will." Reid said, reaching across the table and patting Emily's hand.

"Well, I think that I speak for all of us when I say, congratulations Hotch and Emily." Morgan said.

"I propose a toast!" Garcia said loudly. She lifted her glass and everyone else followed her lead. "To Emily Prentiss and Aaron Hotchner. May they have a beautiful baby, and may Emily choose to gossip about Hotch in bed eventually." She raised her glass higher, and took a drink.

"I hope that if she does choose to gossip about Hotch in bed, that I'm not there." Morgan shuddered.

"I second that." Rossi said.

"Third." Reid agreed.

"I hope for my sake, she doesn't tell you anything." Hotch laughed.

"He jokes now?" Rossi asked.

"Yeah, weird right?" Emily laughed. Hotch laughed too. It was true. He was actually joking. He was smiling, laughing and loving his life. And the more that he thought about it, the more he realized that he had a million reasons to love his life. A wonderful girlfriend, two beyond fantastic children, an awesome job with a fabulous team and a baby on the way. Life was amazing.

The day was over. The rest of lunch went well, and was full of fun. They had a great time. When Hotch and Emily returned home, Emily was still thinking about what Reid said.

"Hey Aaron?" She said as she slipped a nightgown on. Hotch laid in the bed, reading a book.

"Yeah?"

"What names did you like when Haley had Riley and Jack?" She asked.

"Why?"

"I just wondered. I don't have any idea what kinds of names you like."

"Okay, well if Riley was a guy I wanted to name her Evan." Hotch said.

"Evan Hotchner. That's cute." Emily agreed.

"I thought so. Haley liked Kyle. We were torn. We didn't find out her sex before she was born. Haley and I decided that if she was a girl, we'd name her Samantha." Hotch said.

"Samantha?" Emily asked. "Where did Riley come from?"

"I don't really know. When she was born, we just looked at her and knew she wasn't a Samantha. I don't know if that makes sense, but she wasn't. Haley suggested Riley, and it just fit." He said.

"Yeah, it suits her. She wouldn't be a Samantha. What about Jack?" Emily wondered.

"Well, we both liked Jack. We did find out his sex, but early on, I liked Carley. Haley liked Megan." Hotch said. Emily was a bit surprised. Hotch had some good taste, at least, in her opinion. She hesitated about asking what he liked for their baby, because she thought it might be weird. She'd only known about the pregnancy for a while and she was already focusing on names? She thought Hotch might think she was weird.

"What about our baby?" She asked, throwing all worries into the wind.

"I haven't really thought too much about names. Truth be told, I've been thinking about you." Hotch said.

"Me?"

"Yeah, you in the field. But, there are a few names I like." He said.

"Really? I thought you'd think I was crazy for already thinking of names." Emily said.

"Oh Emily, that's not why I think you're crazy. There are many other reasons that I think you're crazy." Hotch laughed. Emily laid down beside him and punched him in the arm.

"Whatever you ass. So, what names do you like?" She asked.

"I still like Carley. Amelia too." He said. "For a boy, I like Jesse and Evan."

"I thought you hadn't thought about it?" She laughed.

"Okay, so I thought about it a little. Shush. What about you?"

"I don't really know. Carmen is cute. I like Calvin for a boy." Emily said.

"Those are cute." He said, kissing Emily on the head.

"They're okay." Emily said. "I don't know. Say we pick a name, and it sucks?"

"Then we pick a new one." Hotch shrugged.

"JJ called about a case before." Emily remembered.

"Yeah, the team is leaving tomorrow at nine." Hotch said. "I said I wouldn't go."

"No," said Emily. "You have to go."

"Why? I want to go to your appointment!" Hotch protested.

"You've got to help them. JJ told me about the case. It's pretty bad." Hotch groaned, knowing that she wouldn't stop protesting.

"Okay, I'll come to your appointment and we'll take a commercial flight out to Michigan to join the team." Hotch said.

"You're so stubborn." Emily laughed.

"I know, but you are too." He said.
