Part 37 (thanks for the help Beth and another thanks to all my wonderful fans and readers. Reading your reviews makes me want to rewrite more. Love you all!)
Hotch, Emily, and Jack had enjoyed their time in London. They finished all the packing, sent some things over already and explored London.
Hotch held her hand as they walked. "What do you think about getting married while we are here?"
She looked at him and smiled. "Everyone will hate us for not inviting them or even telling them."
"I think they will forgive us." He smiled. "Think if we go see someone now we could get married tomorrow? Have a beautiful wedding and honeymoon to always remember about?"
"Honeymoon? Sweetie, Jacks here with us." She grinned as she looked over at him as he was swinging on the swings at the park.
"Yeah, point being?" He said as he kissed her hand and then kissed her lips.
She laughed as she returned the kiss. "I guess I don't have one."
"Jack, come on buddy, lets get going." He said as he stood up with her. "So, town office?"
She smiled. "City court, yes."
Jack walked over to them and smiled. He was happy that his dad was finally happy again. "Now where are we going?" He asked
"Going to go see if we can get a marriage license so we can get married before we head back home." Hotch told him.
"Awesome." He said.
Emily smiled and they walked down to the city court and waited in line. They where their for an hour and walked out with everything they needed. Of course with a quick call to her mother they made, helped some. It's not how she planned on telling her mother, but hey it works. "That's not how I planned on telling her." She said to Hotch as they left.
Hotch was holding Jacks hand as they left. "It's ok, call her when we get back to..." Hot was interrupted but Emily's cell phone ringing. "Or talk now." He said as he watched her answer it.
Emily looked at her phone and nodded at Hotch. It was her mother. "Hi mom." She said.
"Emily, I just received a phone call that you where trying to get a marriage license. I didn't know you where seeing anyone."
"I am mom." She kept a hold of Hotch's hand.
"Who's the lucky guy?" She asked.
"Arron Hotchner." Emily walked over to a near by bench and sat down.
"Isn't he your boss?"
"He was, remember. I haven't been working at Quantico for almost a year now. So that doesn't mean anything now." Emily informed her.
"Oh, I forgot you where working at London yard. How's is going there?"
"Well, it was ok, I miss the field. I was offered my position back at the BAU. I'm taking it. I'm moving back to Virginia. Aaron and Jack are here helping me pack up. He asked me to marry him a few days ago. I said yes. We want to get married before we go back state side." Emily said to her mom.
Hotch held her hand, giving her support.
"So, he'd be your boss again?"
"Mom, will you stop. We are happy and this is happening before I start working so it'll be ok. Why can't you just be happy for me once instead of calling and starting with me?"
"I'm just making sure your not doing something stupid."
"So, now that I want to marry Aaron and want to finally be happy, that's stupid?"
"That's not what I meant."
"No mom, I don't. You have never really cared what I did as long as it didn't interfere with you."
"Emily, look, I wasn't calling to fight with you. I was just trying to figure out why you didn't tell me you'r self and to congratulate you." Elizabeth said.
Emily was shocked to say the least. "Well, I wasn't prepared to call you yet, and thank you."
"Is there anything I can help you with?"
Emily's mouth dropped opened. "Yeah, we'd like to get married tomorrow. We are only going to be in London for another two days."
"Let me make a call and see what I can do, and can I be there when you say I do?" Her mom asked.
"Yes. Just please don't start anything mom. I want it to be the best day ever."
"I promise. I love you Emily."
"I love you too. Thanks mom." She hung up her phone and looked at Hotch. "She's going to see what she can so to get us married tomorrow. She said congratulations and she wants to be there when we get married."
He smiled and kissed her. "That's great. I think we have some shopping to do." He stood up and pulled her along with him and Jack. He was enjoying spoiling her. Hopefully they will get good news from her mom later. He couldn't wait to make her his wife. His life was finally becoming whole again.
