She decided to call Randall after she calmed down.

"Hey sweet thing, how did the Doctors appointment go?

She melted into her couch. "The doctors appointment went really well. The talk with Morgan, not so much. I don't know how I ever loved him," she took a deep breath.

"I'm sorry Sweetie, I personally don't like the man, but I'm sure he is just in sensory overload. It's been less than a week since he found all of this out. Remember how you reacted when you found out?"

She didn't want to talk about it. "So do you want to know what color we'll be painting the nursery?

"The anticipation is killing me!"

"I'm having a ... BOY" She screamed into the phone.

"Penelope, that's great news! Now we can paint and get everything ready for him!"

"I know. I can't believe I'm having a son. You're going to have to teach him everything about sports and take him to t-ball practice..." She started naming off things.

"Silly girl, can we wait until he's born before we start planning all of that?" He said, with a laugh.

"Yeah, I guess we should. I'm just excited. Hey, I know we're busy, but can I take tomorrow off?" She said biting her lip; she didn't want to see Morgan just yet.

"Yeah Sweetie, that's fine. Hey Mark is off tomorrow. I'll call him to go over and start painting. Then when I get off I'll come by and help. When are you going to tell the team what you're having?"

"Yes, please ask Mark to come over, I'll be here all day getting stuff ready. I'm sure Morgan has told them all already, if not he will be. I want to go out to dinner tomorrow to celebrate with everyone."

"That sounds good to me, Honey. I'm so happy for you. I'll have Mark come by around ten okay?"

"Sure thing Baby. Thank you for everything. I'm going to call Sandra and tell her the good news."

She didn't want to call the whole team so she sent them a quick text.

It's a BOY! We'll celebrate tomorrow night! Love you all xoxo

As soon as she sent it she started getting texts from the group congratulating her. After today she needed some her time so she started the tub.

Morgan walked into the building the next day defeated. When he got back to the hotel he finally called his mom.

"Hey Baby, what do I owe the pleaser of your call?" came over the phone. He sat at the end of his bed trying to control his emotions.

"Momma, I messed up so bad, and I have no idea how to fix it." He said with such hurt in his voice she new something was terribly wrong.

"What's wrong, honey? We can always fix anything, just tell me what happened?"

"Mom, I hurt Penelope so bad..." He then continued to tell his mother the whole story not leaving any detail out. "Mom how could I have been so stupid to tell her I never loved her and never will. I was just so scared of the things I was feeling after we made love. It had never felt like that before. So I pushed her away and made myself believe I never loved her but in reality that's the only thing I know how to do. She wants me to have no say in anything that involves the baby. She even said she was going to find a man one day and give my son siblings. I'm so lost right now."

His mom took a deep breath trying to understand everything her son had just told her. "You need to give Penelope time. Yes, Derek, you hurt her but she loves you and love is something you just can't get over, right away. You need to show her you were scared, but make no mistake the next time I see you I'm going to hit you upside your head. I know you say things out of anger. In that aspect; you're just like your father, but what you said about her track record with men was uncalled for, Derek. It will end up making you work even harder to regain what you once had with her. Don't ever tell your sisters that, they'll make it their job to harass you about your stupidity."

"I know, Mom. I'm the stupidest person in the world right now and I'm paying for it. I want to fix this, fix Penelope and me. I want a family with her and only her."

"You need to show her you're serious about this, Derek. It's going to be hard to convince her because she'll think you're only trying to take responsibility for your actions. Don't let your ego get in the way and you end up saying something you regret again. Tomorrow when you see her talk to her, even if she doesn't listen at first keep talking to her. Talk to that Randall guy and Rossi, it sounds like if you can get them on your side she would follow suite."

"Thanks for listening Momma. I'll fix this and if I'm lucky I'll have a house full of grandbabies for you."

"Let me know if you need anything. I love you, Derek."

"I love you, too, Mom. Thanks."

He had to find Penelope this morning and apologize for the way he acted. He was just taken so off guard. She had always been able to throw him for a loop. It was one of the things he loved about her, and she always kept him on his toes. The last name of the baby hurt him, and that caused him to say things he didn't mean. He needed to find a way to prove to her he was in love with her. He wanted to be her husband and give her a family she's always wanted.

He walked into her office only to find it empty. He then made his way to the room they had been working in. Everyone was there but Penelope.

"Where is she?" Morgan asked McAlister.

Randall looked over at him. "She needed the day off so I gave it to her."

Morgan looked towards Hotch "I need the day off, Hotch. I need to see her. She can't be alone right now, not after the things I said last night."

"She's not alone, Morgan. My friend Mark's with her. They're going to paint the nursery and go shopping for the baby."

"Who the fuck is Mark? Is that the guy in the pictures?" Morgan started pacing the room. When no one answered he walked out.

Reid decided to go after him. He had sat back long enough watching his friend fall apart.

"Mark, thank you so much for coming to help. I know Randall said he wanted to come by later to see what we've done." She said giving Mark a glass of water.

"We? Don't you mean me?" He said with a laugh taking the water. "You look beautiful today, Penelope. Pregnancy suits you."

She could feel her cheeks heat up. "Thanks Mark. I really appreciate everything you've been doing for me. Randall is a great judge of character. You know, he told me about the time you saved him during some shoot out?"

"Ah, don't let him inflate my ego, Pen. It was nothing. I just needed to make sure he got home to Sandra, his fiancé at the time. He would've done the same for me."

"So he would've taken a bullet for you so you could go home to your woman?"

"What woman?" He laughed. "I was too young to have a fiancé waiting at home. But now… I'm just waiting for the right girl." He looked her in the eyes.

"Maybe you'll find that girl somewhere soon," she said with a wink. "I'm going to ask the team to go out to eat tonight at that fun restaurant down the street that has live music and dancing. Do you want to come with us tonight?"

"I'd love to Penelope, but only if you promise to dance with me." He said, drinking the water.

She winked at him, "You think you can keep up with me? I'm a fire cracker."

"God, I hope so!" he said, walking back into the room to paint.

AN: Thank you for reading. The restaurant is going to be fun, lots of jealousy and passion to come… Please review, I love to hear what you guys think.
