Hanging On The Edge Ch 31

Desi and Sarah were in the kitchen fixing some cookies for Jack and Henry when the girls got home from the hospital, when they heard the door shut they quickly made their way through to the living room. When Fran saw them she smiled, Penelope then said, "welllllllll, it seems like I'm pregnant, around 6 to 7 weeks along which meanssssss that I got pregnant while I was on my honeymoon", Sarah and Desi squealed and ran to hug their sister in law.

Penelope said, "is it to soon for us to have a baby, I mean we've only been married for 2 months and here I'm pregnant already", JJ said, "calm down Garcie, take a deep breath, everything is going to be fine, he's going to be thrilled when he finds out that the two of you are going to bring another little Morgan into the world". Penelope blew out a deep breath and said, "but what if he's not ready to be a father, what if he thinks I'm trying to trap him".

Fran said, "trap him, honey, why would you think that, you and Derek are married, you are his wife and he is your husband, trust me, I know my son and when he finds out the news that he's going to be a father he's going to be thrilled". Penelope said, "are you sure?", Fran nodded her head and said, "I'm absolutely positive", Penelope sat down on the couch and said, "why am I so worried, why am I like this?", JJ sat down on one side of her and Emily on the other and JJ said, "honey when I found out that I was pregnant I would cry at the drop of a hat".

Emily nodded her head and said, "me too, I was so emotional that Hotch wanted me to go see a shrink, he thought I was getting ready to suffer a breakdown or something", Fran said, "when I was pregnant with Sarah, I was a nervous wreck the entire time, that was because she was my first baby but when Derek came along the pregnancy was easier, my nerves were still there but nothing like they were with Sarah".

Penelope continued listening as Fran said, "and with Desi, my entire pregnancy with her was a breeze, no nerves, no morning sickness, nothing, nothing at all, so I think what is worrying you so much is where this is your first child". Emily said, "I agree with Fran, you are half way through with your first trimester of your first pregnancy, don't worry, take things slow and easy and everything will work itself out PG", she blew out a deep breath and said, "you're right, you're right".

Sarah and Desi walked into the room with a plate of cookies and coffee for everybody but Penelope, Desi handed her a cup of tea and since she'd had the morning sickness earlier she was more than happy with the tea. JJ looked at the girls and said, "how were the boys?", Sarah said, "they were angels, they've been watching cartoons and movies since you left, we just took them some cookies and milk and they were having a blast watching Nemo".

Penelope smiled and then took a bite of cookie, she was then pulled from her thoughts when she heard Derek and the others coming through the front door, she looked up at Fran and said, "I can do this, I can do this". Fran nodded her head and said, "yes, yes you can, you can do this, you can tell my son some of the best news he's ever gonna hear", she smiled and then stood up and walked across the room and met Derek at the entrance to the living room.

Derek said, "are you alright sweetness, you look a little pale", she took him by the hands and said, "I have something to tell you", he said, "is it good news?", she smiled and said, "it is, it is", he said, "alright, what do you have to tell me?", she blew out a deep breath and said, "we'regoingtohaveababy", he looked at her and said, "huh, what, slow it down baby girl, repeat that for me please".

She gently squeezed his hands and said, "I'm pregnant, around 6 to 7 weeks along", he smiled and said, "a baby, we're going to have a baby?", she nodded her head and said, "yes, yes we are". He dropped to his knees and put his head against her stomach and said, "hello in there little one, I'm your daddy and I love you and your mommy so so much", he looked up at her and said, "I love you baby girl", she said, "and I love you".

The room then filled with the sounds of congratulations as the team celebrated the news that soon they would be welcoming another new member
