My God! I am so so sooooo sorry for the wait! Things have just been so crazy these last couple of weeks! Numerous doctor appointments, and I had to get a new laptop after killing my old one dead and losing all my writings and family issues and stupid future brother-in-laws and everything. Here is the final chapter to this (if I do say so myself) awesome story. I don't own CM or anything else. So, review and enjoy :)

"Christmas!"

Spencer groaned softly and tugged the covers over his head, laying still on his stomach. JJ stirred next to him, inhaling softly. "Baby."

"Shh, pretend we're not here." Spencer said, pulling his wife closer to him and laying his head on her stomach, feeling the baby move from the inside. JJ was seventeen weeks pregnant with their second child and Spencer was over the moon. He had missed a lot when she was pregnant with Henry, so with this one, he was able to experience everything from the start.

JJ giggled, reaching up to run her fingers through her husband's hair. "Spence, you know that's not going to stop your son from crashing through that door in ten seconds." Spencer grumbled something under his breath.

Sure enough, there came a bang as the door swung open and Henry rushed inside announcing "IT'S CHRISTMAS!" Spencer sat up and caught the little boy as he bounded over and into his father's arms. "Daddy, Santa came!"

"He did?" Spencer asked, widening his eyes and acting surprised for his son's benefit. "Yeah! Come see, daddy, come see!" Henry demanded, tugging Spencer's arm. "Okay, okay, you go, I'll meet you down there." The genius laughed, watching the littlest Reid (for now) bounce out of the room, eager to see what Santa had brought him for Christmas.

"Alright, I bought us five minutes," Spencer mumbled into his wife's neck. "You're going to need longer than that, I'm afraid." JJ laughed, pushing him off and sitting up. She truly was a thing of beauty in Spencer's eyes. He loved seeing her pregnant, knowing that was his son or daughter in there. It brought forth a rush of male pride that Hotch had told him would never go away.

He was brought out of his thoughts when his world suddenly went dark, and he dragged his robe off his head, sending his wife a look. She giggled and informed him that their five minutes were almost up. He pulled it on, securing the belt and taking JJ's hand, went out to have their first Christmas as a family.

"Emmmmily." Came a soft sing song tone from near her right ear. She ignored it.

"Em-i-ly." She was going to hurt him, no matter how much she loved him.

"Sweetheart." Oh, that did it.

"I swear to God, Aaron Hotchner, if that clock says anything but seven-thirty, I am going to shoot you in the face." She warned from under the warm covers. The male chuckle from beside her said he didn't believe her. Well, then he couldn't say that she didn't warn him. "It's our first Christmas together, Emily, and you're sleeping it away." He informed her and she groaned, finally rolling over and eyeing the clock.

Seven forty-five.

Alright, he was lucky. She flipped onto her side and faced her lover (boyfriend wasn't strong enough and he wasn't her husband) and gave a sleepy smile. "Hi."

Aaron grinned and kissed her, never able to resist Emily first thing in the morning. He rolled onto his back and hauled her on top of him. "You ready for this?" He asked, pushing her hair back so he could see her.

She smiled. "I think so. I mean, if last night was anything to go by, I think Jack will be pretty happy with this year's load."

Aaron chuckled. "And what about you, Emily Prentiss? Do you think you will be happy with this year's load?"

Emily laid her hand over his heart. "I have you, Aaron. That's already the best present ever."

After Haley's death, Aaron thought he would never fall in love again, only to realize a year later that he was already in love with Emily, and had been for some time. Falling in love with her has been so easy, so natural, he almost didn't believe it. But now, here they were, spending their first Christmas as a couple plus Jack. A family, something Aaron never thought he'd have again.

He looked up into Emily's eyes and saw their future. "I love you. You know that right?"

Emily nodded, amused. "Yeah, of course. I love you, too, Aaron."

He sat up, still holding her in his lap, a single sheet their only covering. "You're the best thing that's ever happen to me, Emily. You supported me when I was down. You helped me get through everything that's happened. You brought back the joy in my life when I thought there was none to be found. Not only that, but you are a wonderful mom to Jack, who loves and adores you almost as much as I did. Almost."

Emily found herself tearing up at Aaron's declaration. "Aaron, honey, where is this coming from? What are you trying to say?"

Aaron chuckled and reached out, pulling up the top drawer of their nightstand and withdrawing a small, red velvet case. Emily's eyes widened. "What I'm trying to say, is will you marry me?"

Not a lot of things got Emily Prentiss off guard. Being the only daughter of an Ambassador had pretty much guaranteed that. But Aaron Hotchner proposing to her, in their bed, wearing only skin, on Christmas morning definitely caught her off guard. In the best way. It took a couple of tries before she could swallow the lump in her throat and finally saying "Yes!"

Later that night, there was a huge party at the home of David Rossi, where they all gathered to spend the last few hours of Christmas left together.

Derek and Penelope spent Christmas together, as they always had. They exchanged gifts before going out and playing in the snow and just generally being together. They had started spending way more time together since Spencer and JJ had approached Derek with a question he never coming.

"Hey, Morgan, come on in." JJ said, waving in her husband's best friend. "You wanted to see me?" He asked entering the office and taking a seat in the chair that wasn't filled with files.

"Spence and I were talking about everything that's happened and we decided something."

Derek nodded slowly. "Okay."

Spencer went over to his friend. "We want you to be Henry's godfather."

Derek felt his jaw drop, but recovered quickly. "Me?" He croaked.

"Well, it can't be me." Spencer laughed. The older agent chuckled before swallowing.

"Reid, JJ, I don't even know what to say. Why me?"

Spencer looked at him with a serious look. "There is nobody I trust more with being my son's godfather than you, Derek Morgan. Your friendship has been the one thing I could and still can count on all these years. I want the same thing for my son."

Derek wasn't going to cry. He hadn't cried in years, since he got his closure with what happened to him as a kid. But Spencer's words had him on the edge. JJ got up and hugged him tight. "Please, Derek. You and Penelope will be awesome godparents together." She said and he laughed. "Alright. I'll do it."

Spencer and JJ had spent the day watching Henry tear into his gifts with gusto and screaming his delight over getting everything he wanted and then some, thanks to not only his godparents, but his other aunts and uncles as well. He spent the entire day playing with each and every toy he had received, which enable his parents to exchange their gifts. JJ would say she walked away with the best gift; a beautiful necklace with a heart pendent that Henry and Spencer had gotten for her. Spencer would argue he got the best gift, with JJ being pregnant. It was also close to their one year anniversary.

They had gotten married months after everything had happened. Spencer had surprised her with a propose in the conference room, claiming to add more good things to happen in said room, but really, JJ knew it was because that was where they had met for the first time. She had said yes, of course, and Spence had presented her with a beautiful princess cut engagement ring with two small diamonds on either side and a slightly larger one in the middle. The two small stones were her and Spence's birthstones and Henry's was in the middle. Emily and Penelope had fawned over the ring, but Emily had later confessed to helping Reid pick it out.

They had a small wedding with just the team and their families before running off to Hawaii for their honeymoon.

And now, here they were a year later, with one child, and another on the way.

Aaron and Emily also had a big day. Thanks to Jack sleeping a little later than normal, the two agents were able to celebrate their engagement somewhat before Jack awoke and they opened presents. Emily was right when she said that Jack would be happy with his gifts. Aaron had received a new watch that his new fiancée had "With Love from Jack and Emily" inscribed on the back. Emily, in addition to her shiny new ring, had gotten a very nice locket from Jack with a picture of him and Emily on the inside.

When the newly engaged couple arrived at Dave's, JJ had immediately spotted the ring, which meant that the women were engaged with that, while the men talked and Henry and Jack showed off their new toys.

All and in all, it was a fantastic Christmas.

"I'm turning into a pro," Emily muttered to herself, quickly dialing Spencer's number and waiting for him to pick up. He and Morgan had gone to get coffee and Emily hoped they were on their way as she listened to Garcia help JJ breathe through the pain.

"Spencer Reid."

"Hey, Reid, you guys on your way back?"

"Yeah. Why?"

"Well, you might want to hurry up."

"Did we get a case?"

"No. Your wife's water just broke, Dr. Reid. Reid?"

"Fuck Reid that was a red light!" Emily heard Morgan yell. She turned back to the two women. "Ok, Reid is on his way, Jayje, so don't push."

Thirteen and a half hours of labor and one broken index finger later, Spencer Reid was cuddling his little girl. He and JJ had wanted to be surprised, and picked out a name for each gender. When the doctor handed Spencer his baby girl, he just knew the name they had picked for her was the right one.

JJ watched her husband and their brand new daughter bond as he talked to the baby softly, grinning like the proud daddy he was. He missed Henry's birth, being away on a case, but now, here he was, holding his newborn daughter in his hands.

"Knock knock."

Emily led the entourage into the hospital room, each armed with balloons and flowers and gifts for the newest Reid. "Hey guys. I'd like to introduce to you, Miss Amelia Rose Reid." Spencer said, his chest puffed with pride.

"Oh my god, Reid, she's adorable." Emily cooed, slowly touching Amelia's cheek.

"You want to hold her?" Spencer asked, smiling when Emily nodded quickly. He transferred the newborn and went over to his wife. Aaron stood next to his fiancée and observed her with the baby. It was definitely time to give Jack a little brother and sister.

"You know, Emily, JJ and I were talking and we want you and Hotch to Amelia's godparents." Spencer said with a smile. Emily and Aaron were completely honored and Emily now understood why Penelope had bought so much stuff for Henry. It was her duty as godmother to spoil this little precious girl. Aaron shook Spencer's hand and kissed JJ on the cheek.

Soon the whole team had a chance with Amelia and Derek took the eldest Reid child off to the side. "Hey, Henry, I got you something." Henry grinned, delighted to get gifts, even if it wasn't his birthday. Derek reached into his pocket and pulled out a small hot wheels car with a bow wrapped around it. "Your daddy gave me one of these as a sign of our friendship. And since I'm your godfather, I'm giving you this as a sign of our friendship and a promise that no matter what happens, kid, Uncle Derek will always be there for you."

Henry didn't understand the speech, but was happy for the car nonetheless. He hugged Derek before rushing off to show his parents. Derek and Spencer shared a look before the older agent went over to Penelope, moving closer to get a better look at the child.

"I think we did good, Dr. Reid," JJ said with a smile, snuggling closer to her husband. "Yes we did, Mrs. Reid. Yes we did."

The End
