Bare It All-Ch 20

Epilogue- 5 Years Later

Derek laughed as he watched his 4 year old son Hank chasing Reid around the back yard yelling, "he's gonna get ya pretty boy". Reid shook his head and said, "ohhhh no he's not, JJ and Reids 5 year old son Henry was saying, "run daddy, runnnnnnnn".

Hotch leaned in to his 6 year old son Jack and said, "do you think you need to help your uncle Spencer"?, the little boy laughed and said, "on it dad" as he jumped down from the swing and ran across the yard saying, "I'm coming uncle Spencer, I'm coming".

Derek and Penelope had now been married almost 5 years, they realized on the vacation to Hawaii that they were destined to be together so Dave and their family arranged a quickie wedding on the beach in front of their beach house, everything was perfect, the weather was amazing, the family was all there to celebrate with the newlyweds so that made for an amazing week.

Savannah was sentenced to 40 years for each of the murders under her belt and the sentences were to be served one after the other so she would be spending the rest of her life behind bars. Hotch and Emily now have along with their son Jack a little 3 year old daughter named Sophie and she is the spitting image of her momma and she definitely has her daddy wrapped around her finger.

JJ and Reid along with Henry have a 4 year old son named Michael and a 1 year old daughter named Sarah Grace and she is the apple of her daddies eyes. Sarah was a surprise for the couple but a very loved and welcomed member to their family.

Derek sighed happily as he watched Penelope and his sister Desi as they carried his twins out into the back yard to join the celebration. The twins were now almost 5 months old, when they found out Penelope was pregnant with twins they decided that they would both pick out two names and that they would each name a twin.

The first little one that was born was a little boy that Derek named Shawn Aaron Morgan and a few minutes later his sister Shannon Emily Morgan was welcomed into the world. They were both so much like their momma that Derek couldn't help but smile when he saw them all together.

Hank was always helping his mommy with the twins and she often praised him as being the best big brother everrrrrrrrr, which of course made him a very happy little boy. Penelope still worked with the team but was mostly on a part time basis and after the twins were born she was able to work from home, which made it easier for her to help Fran with the twins.

Sarah and Desiree moved to Virginia to be closer to their family and are currently involved with twin brothers, which was of course thrilling Fran because she could already see her daughters married with kids of their own just like Derek.

Dave and Fran were still happily married and were at every chance spoiling the kids all rotten, Dave would often tell the others that it was his right as their nonno to do so". Fran was currently kissing him on the cheek as they watched Sarah with her boyfriend, Dave wrapped his arms around his wife and said, "I know that look", she said, "who meeeee"?, he laughed and said, "yes Bella, you", she said, "I just want everybody to be as happy as we are my love, that's all".

He said, "I know honey and they will be but in their own time, not ours", she nodded her head and said, "I know you're right but I'm" and Derek finished her sentence by saying, "not getting any younger", she playfully swatted at him and said, "oh you", he kissed her on the cheek and said, "I love you momma", she said, "I love you to baby boy" and then watched as he walked over and took one of the babies and started kissing it on the face.

As Penelope looked around the yard she couldn't help but smile knowing that all of her happiness started when she had the courage to bare it all to Derek.
