Once Upon A Straight Tequila Night
Chapter 53 - Early Arrival
Penelope's POV
Just when I thought that today was going to go smoothly our little angel decides to crash the party, Derek comes to my side and says "come on baby lets get you inside and get you into something dry, why didn't you tell me that you were having contractions before we started the wedding" I look up at him and say "I didn't say anything because we would have postponed the wedding again and I don't want that to happen, I am not having any contractions so I have every intention of going back out there and witnessing your Mamma and Rossi get married and then we will go to the hospital, ok handsome."
Derek and I head upstairs and I change into a flowing dress and we head back downstairs and back out to the backyard I re-take my seat Fran and Rossi look at me with a questionable expression, I look at them and say "I am ok please continue, this little one can wait until you two are married" the minister continued from where he was up to "now by the power vested in me by the state of Virginia I pronounce you husband and wife you may kiss the bride"Rossi doesn't need to be told twice as he leaned in and kissed Fran passionately.
Now that Fran and Rossi are finally married I can finally focus on bring our little angel into the world, as I am congratulating Fran and Rossi I get a really sharp pain through my belly and my back I grab my belly and begin taking some deep breaths until the pains stop, Fran wraps me in her arms and places her hand on my belly as she says "I think it is time to get you to the hospital because I have a feeling that this little bundle of joy is not going to wait to much longer" I nod as Derek takes me in his arms and says "Mamma I know you just got married but can you keep an eye on the triplets and I will call you when we know what is going on" he then kisses her cheek and shakes Rossi's hand and says "welcome to the family Rossi" Mamma nods and says "of course we will watch the triplets and we will be waiting for your call."
Derek's POV
Just when I thought that today was going to go smoothly our little angel decides to crash the party, I rush to my baby girl side and say "come on baby lets get you inside and get you into something dry, why didn't you tell me that you were having contractions before we started the wedding" she looks up at me and says "I didn't say anything because we would have postponed the wedding again and I don't want that to happen, I am not having any contractions so I have every intention of going back out there and witnessing your Mamma and Rossi get married and then we will go to the hospital, ok handsome."
Penelope and I head upstairs and she changes into a flowing dress and we head back downstairs and back out to the backyard she re-takes her seat, Mamma and Rossi look at her with a questionable expression, she looks at them and says "I am ok please continue, this little one can wait until you two are married" the minister continued from where he was up to "now by the power vested in me by the state of Virginia I pronounce you husband and wife you may kiss the bride"Rossi doesn't need to be told twice as he leaned in and kissed Mamma passionately.
Now that Mamma and Rossi are finally married I can finally focus on Penelope and getting her to the hospital, as I am congratulating Mamma and Rossi I see Penelope rub her back and grab her belly and begin taking some deep breaths until the pains stop, Mamma wraps Penelope in her arms and places her hand her my belly as she says "I think it is time to get you to the hospital because I have a feeling that this little bundle of joy is not going to wait to much longer" Penelope nods as I takes her in my arms and I say "Mamma I know you just got married but can you keep an eye on the triplets and I will call you when we know what is going on" I then kiss her cheek and shake Rossi's hand and say "welcome to the family Rossi" Mamma nods and says "of course we will watch the triplets and we will be waiting for your call."
Penelope's POV
We have arrived at the hospital and Derek carries me in before sitting me in a wheelchair and wheels me up to the maternity ward where Dr. Smith is waiting for us, Derek rang her in the car and she said "I will be waiting for you at the nurses station in maternity, see you soon" Derek pushes the wheelchair into the elevator and presses the button for the maternity ward as the doors open he wheels me to where is and she says "well I didn't think that I would be seeing you in here again ready to deliver your baby at 7 months pregnant."
Dr. Smith shows us to our room and gets me settled on the bed and hooks me up to the fetal monitor and soon the room filled with the SWOOSH, SWOOSH, SWOOSH sounds of our little angels heartbeat, Derek helps me into a hospital gown, being that this baby is 3 months early I am determined to have this baby naturally or as Dr. Smith called it a VBAC birth (vaginal birth after c-section) I grit my teeth as another contraction rips through my body and I have the urge to push, Derek calls Dr. Smith into the room and she checks how I am progressing and she says "ok Penelope I can feel the head, I need for you not to push just yet I need to get ready and get everything set up" I can't help but scream in pain as another contraction comes and goes.
Finally everything is ready and Dr. Smith says "ok I want you to put your chin to your chest and push hold it for the count of ten and then relax, I think oh my god this hurts but it will be so worth it at the end, it takes me 2 more pushes and Dr. Smith says "Penelope the head is out now I want only little pushes, so that I can deliver the rest of your baby ok" I nod as I bear down giving the doctor 5 small pushes I hear the most amazing sound which is the cry of our baby Dr. Smith looks at Derek and says "would you like to cut your son's umbilical cord" Derek looks at me and I can see tears welling up in his eyes as he says "yes please I would love to cut the cord."
Our son is being checked out by the pediatrician to make sure that he is ok being that he wanted to make his grand entrance into this world today, Dr. Smith cleans me up while Derek is infatuated our newest addition to the family the pediatrician announces "your son is very healthy and will not need to go to the special infants nursery, he also weighs 5 lbs 15 oz and is 19 inches long" he then passed our son to Derek and he makes his way back to me and lays him in my arms and I say "welcome to the world Aaron David Spencer Morgan" Derek pulls his cell phone from his pocket and snaps a photo of me kissing baby Aaron on the forehead before dialing his Mamma's number.
Derek's POV
Oh my god I can't believe it we have another little boy and I am completely infatuated with him like I am with the triplets, I get to see him being weighed and checked over by the pediatrician who announces "your son is very healthy and will not need to go to the special infants nursery, he also weighs 5 lbs 15 oz and is 19 inches long" he then passed our son to me and I make my way back to Penelope and lay him in her arms and she says "welcome to the world Aaron David Spencer Morgan" I pull my cell phone from his pocket and snaps a photo of my baby girl kissing baby Aaron on the forehead before dialing Mamma's number.
When Mamma picks up on the second ring she says "what is happen baby boy, is everything ok" I laugh and say "yes everything is fine with both Penelope and our son so you can bring the triplets to the hospital whenever you are ready so that they can meet their baby brother, about an hour later Mamma, Rossi, Sarah, Desiree and the team arrive with the triplets who are already calling out Mama, Mama, Dada, Dada as they sit in their stroller one by one I unstrap them and place them on the bed with Penelope and they each look at their brother and say "shhh ubby eeping" we have been teaching them with the use of baby dolls that Mama had a baby in her tummy and that when the baby was born that they would have to gentle and quiet when around the baby.
Penelope hands baby Aaron over to his name sake as she says "everyone we would like to introduce the newest member of the Morgan family Aaron David Spencer Morgan" it can as a shock to Hotch, Rossi and Reid at the announcement of his name and they are all speechless which is a first for all of them, baby Aaron is passed around to every member of the family and Penelope and I couldn't be happier.
