A/N - Thanks to Kay for the edit

By the middle of June, Emily and Spencer had decided that it was time for them to go and visit Emily's parents, who were now stationed in France. They'd only seen baby Theodore twice in person since he was born, 6 months ago, so whilst the couple had time off until September they decided that a month with his grandparents would be worth it.

They'd only been there three days, and currently, the family had settled and adjusted fairly well. Even Theo, who didn't have much issue with the flight, unlike some of the babies on the flight.

"Are you sure?" Elizabeth asked suddenly as she came up behind Emily, who had wandered into the kitchen to grab a bottle of milk for Theo's feed. "Sure about what Mom?" Emily questioned absently and Elizabeth sighed and watched her daughter for a moment. "Sure about him darling?" Elizabeth asked as she looked to the living room where her husband was sitting talking with Spencer, who was playing with baby Theo.

"Don't do this Mom!" Emily, says turning back to her mother, her anger level rising. "Don't do what Emily?" Elizabeth argues, just as stubborn as her daughter. "Don't go judging Spencer, don't you dare." She says sternly, her eyes clouding over, in defence of her boyfriend.

Elizabeth held her hands up to try and calm her daughter. "All I'm saying Emily, is he might be Theo's father, but I'm not entirely convinced on his parenting abilities, he's only a kid himself for god's sake. I know quite a few men, who I could introduce you to, they'd be perfect."

This time Emily wasn't having it and she flipped her lid. "Don't you dare question him. Spencer is an absolutely amazing father, he's hands-on and engaging. Theo completely adores him and I'm not afraid to admit that a lot of the time, he's far better than I am at parenting. So you have the option to accept Spencer, as the best father, or you can say goodbye to visits from Theo in the future." Emily says and storms away.

Spencer and Richard had been looking at each other as their significant others argued. "I'm sorry about my wife." Richard says and Spencer just glances down to a smiling Theo and shakes his head. "It's no problem. I've been questioned about my ability, because of my age, all my life. I just wish, that maybe I wouldn't be questioned on this one." He admits and Richard clasps him on the shoulder. "I'm not doubting your ability. I promise you. You're better than I ever was, and I think Emily turned out just fine." He says and Spencer smiles and nods. "Thank you." He says and Richard just shakes his head.

"Thank you. This may never have happened if it wasn't for you." Richard says and lifts Theo out of his father's arms and stood as Emily came into the room. "How about I show you the library Theo? Would you like that? I bet you would." Richard says and kisses his daughter on the head and wanders out of the room with his grandson.

Spencer pulls Emily into a hug and she melts into his embrace. "Our son loves his grandfather, and his grandfather loves him. One grandparent is more than I had. I'll avoid contact with your mother if it makes life easier. I just want Theo to have more of a life than I did." Spencer admitted softly and Emily just wrapped her arms around him, not wanting to say anything.

Elizabeth Prentiss watched her husband and grandson wander away and she finds her daughter in the arms of the man she loves, who also is clearly madly in love with her. What she could do about it she didn't know. Should she do anything about it, now that's a question she has to think on.
