Old Friends-Ch 23

Emily slowly opened her eyes and looked around and saw the smiling faces of Reid and Rossi, she weakly smiled and said, "where's Hotch"?, Reid smiled and said, "he is over with Jack". Emily tried to raise up but failed, Rossi said, "easy kiddo, Jack is doing better they are gonna take him up in a few minutes to take the drainage tube out".

She smiled as she laid her head back down, she looked at Reid and said, "how is PG, since you three are here with us that must mean that she is fine and probably making out with Derek somewhere"?, Reid dropped his head and Emily looked at him and said, "Reid, please tell me that she isn't dead,
please Reid".

Rossi stood up and said, "no honey she isn't dead, she's in surgery", Emily looked at her two friends and said, "what the hell happened to her"?, Reid sighed and said, "she was stabbed twice and beaten". Emily pushed the cover off her and said, "help me up, I have to go to PG". Rossi said, "no can do Em".

Reid said, "she has a few broken ribs from being kicked in the ribs, both sides of her face are bruised and she has a collapsed lung from where he kicked her and from where she was stabbed". Emily said, "that sick son of a bitch, I hope that you killed his psycho ass", Rossi smiled and said, "oh he is dead Em".

Hotch smiled as he looked down at his sleeping son, he gently ran his hand through his sons hair and whispered, "when you wake up buddy we need to have a talk about you, me and your mom". He looked around when someone knocked on the door, the nurse walked in and said, "they are ready to take him down and remove the tube".

Hotch stood up and kissed his son on the forehead and said, "I will be right here waiting on your buddy, both me and your mom will be waiting on you,
ok"?, the nurse smiled as she followed the gurney carrying Jack out of the room. Hotch walked over and smiled at Emily, Reid and Rossi stood up and said, "we're gonna go see if Derek has heard anything about Garcia". Hotch nodded his head in agreement, when they got over to the door Hotch said,
"when you hear something please let me know".

Rossi said, "we will Hotch", when they walked out and the door closed, he leaned down and gently kissed Emily on the lips and said, "are you making it a hobby to scare the crap out of me"?, she laughed and said, "no, it is just happening that way". Hotch smiled and said, "I think that when Jack wakes up we need to tell him the truth".

Emily sighed and said, "are you sure that now is the time to be telling him"?, he leaned down and kissed her lips again and said, "I love you Emily and I think that Jack deserves the chance to get to know you and to know that you are his mom". She smiled and said, "ok, but what are you gonna tell him about us"?, he smiled and said, "I'm gonna tell him the truth", she smiled as he brought her hand up to his lips and gently kissed it.

Fran kissed the top of her sons head and said, "tell me about my future daughter in law", he grinned and said, "ohhhhhhhhh mom, there is no other woman in the world for me, she is the most amazing, kind, sweet, considerate, intelligent, sexy woman I have ever met". Fran laughed and said, "it seems that your baby girl has your heart".

Derek laughed and said, "ohhhhhhhhhhhh she does and she has had it forever", he smiled at her and said, "we never could get things together, first she got shot and then I told her that I love her and she said the same to me but she thought I meant as just a friend and then she got with another computer analyst".

Fran smiled as she felt her son squeeze her hand, "finally one night we went out after the team got back from a rough case and when we were alone I finally told her that I love her and not as a friend, but as a lover". Fran smiled and said, "what did she say to that baby boy"?, he smiled and said,
"she told me that she had always loved me but she didn't think that a man like me could love a woman like her".

Fran sighed and said, "but it's obvious that she believed you", he laughed and said, "oh yeah she did and I thank God for her everyday", Fran hugged her son again and said, "she is gonna be fine honey". Derek looked at his mom and said, "I hope so ma because I am gonna make that beautiful, sexy woman my wife".

Fran grinned and said, "does that mean that I am gonna get the grandbabies that you have been promising me"?, he looked at her and said, "MOMMMMMM",
she laughed and said, "what honey, you do know that I am not getting any younger don't you"?, he kissed her cheek and said, " if I get my way mama you are gonna get lots and lots of grandbabies from me and my baby girl".

Derek turned to see Penelopes doctor walking towards them, Derek squeezed his momma hand as the doctor walked closer and closer to them
