Chapter 7

Reid sighed, standing with Garcia. They were holding hands as they watched the team, GoBags in hand, disappear as the elevator closed. Garcia looked up at the long, sad sigh that came from her tall companion. She smiled and lifted his hand to her lips, kissing the back of it.
"Come on, kiddo." She told him. "Let's get to work." He offered her a forced smile. "Awwww…" She cooed. "Come on. You're gonna stay with me in my office." And not letting go of his hand, she pulled him down the hall and into her office. "Make yourself at home, my love. And tell me if you—" She stopped and turned at Reid's sudden sharp inhale. His eyes were wide and he pressed his hand to his stomach.
"… I am NEVER going to get used to that." The boy gasped, and she smiled.
"Kicking again?"
"Yeah…" Reid sighed. "Ever since I fell, it hasn't stopped. I read that babies sleep about eighteen hours a day. But I feel like it's kicking eighteen hours a day." She grinned.
"… May I?" She asked, reaching out hesitantly. Reid blinked and fidgeted a moment, then nodded. She grinned and laid her hand on his belly. "Oh!"
"Yeah." Reid snorted.
"He's strong! Oh… he? She?"
"I don't know yet."
"Why not?"
"… I… I'm not ready." Reid sighed. Garcia looked at him.
"Oh."
Silently, the pair settled down, Garcia at her station and Reid with the case files spread over the desk behind her. It was three hours later that the call came in.
"You have reached the Warrior Princess of the Electronic World and her faithful sidekick the Tiny Ass Wonder." She greeted. Reid's head shot up from where he was bent over the desk, his behind to the TA.
"GARCIA!" He cried.
"Just call it as I see it, sugar." She said, winking and eying said 'Tiny Ass'. Reid stood straight up and turned to face her, clapping his hands over his bottom and glaring at her.
"Stop staring at my… my…"
"Your ass?"
"YES!" Reid cried.
"Uh… If you two are finished…?" Rossi's voice came over the speaker phone, and they could hear JJ, Morgan and Prentiss chuckling to themselves in the background (Hotch had left the room so Reid wouldn't hear him laughing, too).
"Right, sir. What can I do for you?" Garcia asked, turning back to her computers. Reid grumbled under his breath.
"I need you to dig up anything you can on a Justin Caple." Rossi said.
"Yessir." Garcia said. "Anything in particular?"
"Look for activity in his bank accounts and credit cards. Large amounts of money being moved."
"Yessir. I shall find the information and report back in a jiff."
"And Reid. Hotch wants you to start working a geographic profile and collaborate with Garcia on Victimology."
"Sure thing." Reid said. And the call ended. Reid sighed.
"How can you stand it?" He asked.
"What?"
"Sitting here in the dark."
"… I prefer dim lighting. If I have bright lights on AND I'm staring at my screens, it's too—"
"No, I mean… being kept out of the loop." Reid clarified. "Not knowing everything that's going on."
"Oh. Well… because considering the horrific things you guys deal with… I kind of prefer not to know." She said. Reid sighed again, running his hand through his hair, then letting it drop to absently rub his stomach.
"Hey… Garcia?"
"Yeah?"
"Will… Will you come with me to my doctor's appointment tomorrow morning?"
"What?"
"I really don't wanna go alone." Reid mumbled.
"Oh, sweetie… I would but… I have to be here for the team."
"They're on the west coast, Garcia." Reid pointed out. "My appointment will be 4 am their time."
"Oh!" She gasped, eyes widening. "You're right!"
"So… You'll come with me?" Reid asked, hopefully.
"Of course."
And early in the morning, Dr. Tsai walked into the room and stopped, blinking in confusion at the beaming blonde.
"Good Morning!" The woman sang. Reid snickered from his spot on the table.
"Dr. Tsai, this is FBI Technical Analyst Penelope Garcia." He said. "She uh… since I can't go with the team now, she's my babysitter while I work out of Quantico."
"It's nice to meet you, Ms. Garcia." Dr. Tsai said, shaking Garcia's hand.
"Please. Just Garcia." She replied. "So. How's my baby doing?" Dr. Tsai raised an eyebrow. Reid just grinned at her and shrugged.
"Hope you don't mind if I keep my underwear on this time." He said, gesturing towards Garcia.
"Why?" Dr. Tsai asked, giving him a wicked smile. "Were you giving Agent Hotchner peep shows when I was examining you?"
"OH oh!" Garcia cried, sitting straight up and giving Reid an appraising look as he turned red. Both women burst out laughing.
"… Thanks for reminding me why I've always been scared of girls." Reid snorted, pouting.
"Lie down, Dr. Reid." Dr. Tsai laughed, and Reid obeyed. She glanced at the nurse's notes, checking his temperature, pulse, respiration, weight and blood pressure.
"Good weight gain. STILL not what I'm hoping for but…"
"Sorry." Reid mumbled.
"In his defense, it's not his fault." Garcia said. "He's eating like… four times what he used to eat. It's kind of scary really." She said, making a face. Reid rolled his eyes.
"Okay." Dr. Tsai said, and pressed her hands to Reid's bare stomach. "How have you been doing with the baby's activity?"
"… Can you prescribe a sleep aid for the baby?"
"Having trouble sleeping?" Dr. Tsai asked, eyes sparkling in amusement.
"YES." Reid said firmly. "Usually Aaron helps, but…"
"Wait. Helps how?" Garcia asked, sounding delighted.
"… Not like that." Reid groaned, covering his eyes with a hand. Dr. Tsai laughed again. "He rubs my stomach. Usually the baby calms down. Then I can sleep."
"Awwww… That's so sweet." Garcia cooed.
"Oh!" Reid gasped, suddenly. Then he lifted his head and glared at the woman. "You woke it up!" She laughed as the baby kicked at her prodding hand. Garcia grinned. Dr. Tsai finished the abdominal palpation, then gently prodded Reid's chest. He frowned.
"Tender?" Dr. Tsai asked.
"No." Reid said.
"Okay. No signs of lactating."
"WHAT?" Garcia blurted.
"YOU will not breathe a WORD about that any ANY one!" Reid snapped, fixing her with a glare.
"… You're gonna lactate?"
"He potentially COULD. But he's not showing any signs of milk production."
"Thank GOD." Reid groaned, flopping back down.
"How is your back holding up?"
"Okay. Aches sometimes. Usually at the end of the day, my feet and back are aching. The hotel mattresses were hell."
"I can imagine." Dr. Tsai said with a smile.
"… I have to pee a lot more."
"It's normal."
"It sucks."
"I'm sure it does, Dr. Reid. Considering our guest, we will skip the internal exam. Ready for the ultrasound?"
"Ooh! Ooh!" Garcia gasped, and was standing by Reid's side in the blink of an eye. Dr. Tsai blinked in surprise. Reid just grinned. Garcia watched eagerly as the gel was squirted over Reid's stomach. Then, Dr. Tsai pressed the sensor to his taught skin.
"Looks like your organs are all shifting to make room."
"Freaky…" Reid mumbled.
"And there it is."
"Ohhh… Lookit the baby!" Garcia squealed. Reid and Dr. Tsai grinned at each other, amused with Garcia's reaction. "Oh my gosh! Reid! I have to know what it is! We have to throw you a Shower!"
"Oh God, no." Reid whined. "No no no. I don't want a Baby Shower, Garcia. I'm not keeping it!"
"Oh… But Reid!"
"NO!" Reid cried, laughing.
"Well… at least let me find out if it's a boy or a girl!" She whined. Reid stared at her. She looked down at him and smiled, reaching out and playing with his hair. "You should find out, too. You know… Hotch is dying to know."
"… What?"
"He wants to know." Garcia said. "But he refuses to find out until you do."
"Why?" Reid asked, looking confused.
"Because he loves you. And he wants to share that with you." Garcia said, wisely. Reid blinked at her, then bit his lip. Dr. Tsai was holding her breath. "Can you imagine the look on his face when he comes home and you tell him it's a girl?" Reid smiled slightly, and his cheeks flushed.
"Girl?"
"I REALLY want you to have a girl!" Garcia blurted, and Reid smiled slightly.
He did think of what Hotch's face may look like… He also thought about that little baby girl that Jessica Clayton had left in the tree house in the woods. And the terror in himself when he fell on his stomach… the sickening fear that he had killed the baby… HIS baby… And he froze at that thought. His baby… His and Aaron's baby… And then it just clicked.
"… I'm ready." He whispered, looking at Dr. Tsai. "… I want to know." She stared at him, and her face split into a brilliant smile.
"Alright." She said. "Look." She pointed at the screen. "You can see the profile. Here's the nose."
"Awwww… Lookit the wittle fingers!" Garcia cooed.
"Here's the heart." Dr. Tsai pointed out. Reid smiled slightly, watching. "Here are the little feet." She moved her sensor, getting a different view. She leaned close to the screen, studying the sonogram.
"There you go, Dr. Reid." She said, suddenly, and pointed at the screen.

AN: I almost ended the chapter there... but I decided to have mercy on you guys! BE GRATEFUL! LOL

Two days later and the team was coming home. Reid was laughing and whining all in the same breath as Garcia set up the meeting room table with treats.
"You won't let me throw you a baby shower, so I'm throwing a Gender Reveal party." She said, setting out the paper plates and napkins that were a particular pastel color to identify with the baby's gender. It came in a set of blue and pink. She had tossed aside the plates and napkins that didn't match the gender of the baby.
"Did you know..." Reid said suddenly. "That a few hundred years ago, the color pink was actually identified with baby boys? Because it was considered to be a very bold, strong color."
"Yeah, uh huh, that's nice. The team should be here any minute, and then it's party time!"
"Garciaaaa…" Reid whined. "I do NOT need- Are those Deviled Eggs?"
"Uh huh."
"… Oooh…" Reid gasped, reaching out.
"Get away you!" Garcia cried, smacking his hand. "Not until the others are here!"
"Ow…" Reid pouted, rubbing the back of his hand. Then, they heard a small commotion. The team was walking into the Bull Pen. Reid smiled.
"Welcome home!" Garcia sang, waltzing out onto the walkway. Everyone looked up at her. "I brought food!"
"Food?" Emily asked, perking up.
"Why?" Morgan asked, looking curious.
"Everyone come in and we'll tell you!" Garcia cried, and skipped back into the meeting room shouting "NOT YET! DROP IT!"
"But I'm hungry!" They heard Reid whine.
"I think we should get in there." JJ laughed. The team put down their bags and filed into the meeting room.
"Damn, woman. You are a GODDESS!" Morgan cried when he saw the spread she had laid out for them.
"Okay they're here. NOW can I have one?" Reid asked.
"Hungry, Spencer?" Hotch asked, chuckling. Reid smiled at him.
"… You look tired." Reid said, walking over to the man. Hotch smiled down at him, lifting a hand running his fingers over Reid's cheek. The team watched them.
"So uh… What's all this about?" Rossi asked, inspecting the table full of snacks.
"Garcia felt like it." Reid shrugged.
"And?" Garcia prompted.
"And uh… I have something to tell you." Reid said, all of his focus on Hotch. He shuffled closer, eyes darting around nervously. Hotch cocked his head.
"Spencer? What is it?" He asked, smiling at his slender mate's endearing behavior. He laid his hands on Reid's face. "Hey. Look at me. What is it?"
Reid smiled up at the man and shuffled close, his hands falling to rest on Hotch's waist.
"Garcia came with me to see Dr. Tsai the day before yesterday."
"Oh?" Hotch asked. "And?" Reid's heart was pounding. He stared Hotch in the eye.
"And uh…" He gave the man a smile. "It… It's a boy." Hotch stared. His eyes widened slightly, excitement flaring up in them.
"What?" He gasped, sliding his fingers into Reid's hair.
"It's boy, Aaron." Reid breathed. The team watched their Unit Chief's face light up in the biggest smile they had seen on his face in a long, long time.
"Spencer…" He laughed, grinning. "You…?"
"Yeah." Reid confirmed, nodding. Hotch stared at him, then pulled him close. One hand remained buried in the boy's chestnut curls, and the other fell to the small of his back, holding his body close to the elder's. Reid's arms wrapped around the man's shoulders as they shared a kiss. The team glanced between one another when the little kiss deepened dramatically. Finally they broke apart, and for the first time since Reid found out that he was pregnant, his eyes sparkled with happy tears.
"I am SO proud of you, Spencer." Hotch said, brushing the tears way with his thumbs before they fell.
"You two have any names in mind?" Rossi asked.
"Let's not get ahead of ourselves, Dave." Hotch said, glancing at the man. Reid just smiled and cuddled up to Hotch. The man hugged him tightly, then dropped a hand to caress the boy's swollen belly.
"You two are so SWEET!" JJ announced, before sniffling loudly. Hotch and Reid stared at her as she brushed tears away. A moment later, the team broke out laughing and swooped down on the food. Reid finally got to have his coveted Deviled Eggs. As they enjoyed their food, the team started tossing names around.
"Eugene." Rossi announced, sipping a scotch. The team giggled.
"Ernest?" JJ asked.
"How about… Benjamin." Emily tossed out.
"Evanrude." Garcia announced. "Like the little dragonfly from the Disney movie with the mice?"
"What were the seagulls' names?" JJ asked.
"Ooh! Orville and Wilbur."
"Oh God." Reid groaned.
"Thadeus." Rossi chuckled.
"Isaac."
"Solomon."
"Saul!"
"Nebuchanezer?"
"… Ezekiel?"
"ENOUGH WITH THE BIBLICAL NAMES!" Reid howled.
"Ebeneezer Reid." Emily suggested.
"… Farley." Garcia giggled.
"Oh! Oh!" Morgan gasped, sitting up. "Poindexter Danger!"
"What?" Reid asked, lifting an eyebrow.
"So that he can say 'Danger is my middle name'." Morgan pointed out. The team burst out laughing, and several tossed wadded up napkins at the man.
"How about Stephen Hawking Reid?" JJ asked.
"Ha ha." Reid snorted, and Hotch chuckled.
"Or Albert, for Albert Einstein." The man offered.
"Don't encourage them, Hotch!" Reid cried, and their Technical Analyst perked up.
"Why not just save the kid EARNING the title of 'Doctor' and just name him Doctor? You can say you named him after you." Garcia suggested. The team laughed again.
"No no no!" Reid cried into his hands, giggling.
"How about Bruce Wayne Reid?" Morgan said.
"No!" Reid laughed.
"Peter Parker Reid?" Emily asked, looking at Morgan.
"Or Peter Parker HOTCHNER." Rossi pointed out.
"Oooooh…" the rest of the team chorused, turning and looking at Hotch, who had given up trying to keep a straight face.
"Oh, for God's sake." The man chuckled, as Reid groaned and let his head drop onto the table. He happened to slap his hand down at the same time, right onto a fork that was stuck in a half eaten pile of potato salad. The team sat in silence, eyes wide, watching in slow motion as potato salad flew across the room and…
SPLAT!
Hearing this, Reid jerked his head up. The entire team stared, eyes wide, at the potato salad all over the man's face.
"… Aaron. I'm telling you right now, if he weren't pregnant, I would kill him!" Rossi howled, groping for a napkin. The team blinked, then burst into raucous laughter and applause.
"Omigod, Rossi, I am SO sorry!" Reid gasped, struggling to his feet and hurrying around the table with some napkins to help the man clean up. "I… I didn't mean to!"
"Oh, I know." Rossi sighed. "If you had done it on purpose, you would have missed." Reid blinked and stared, then gave him a look. The team laughed louder.
"Oh, shut up." Reid snorted, picking up a baby pickle and chucking it, watching as it bounced off of Morgan's head.
"Oh, no you did not, Pretty Boy!" Morgan cried, lunging and tackling Reid.
"AH! NO! MORGAN!" Reid shrieked as the man grabbed a celery stalk and started beating him with it. Hotch sighed and let his face fall into his hands.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, the Elite Agents of the FBI!" JJ laughed, clapping her hands.
"Aaron! Aaron! Get him off me!" Reid cried, trying to fend Morgan off with a note pad he had snatched from the side table.
"Alright, alright." Hotch called. "Enough. Both of you. Reid, stop throwing food." Reid backed away and Morgan lowered the battered celery. "Ready to go home, Spencer?" Hotch asked. "You look tired." Reid smiled and nodded.
"Yeah."
"Okay." Hotch said. "go on down to the car, I need to grab something from my office."
"Okay." Reid said, then turned and walked over to Garcia, hugging her. She smiled and kissed his cheek.
"See you later, sugar." She said, and Reid snatched his messenger bag and headed for the elevator. Then, Hotch turned to the team.
"I want to thank you." He said. "All of you. Your support in this has been… invaluable. To both of us."
"Oh. Of course, Hotch." JJ said, smiling. Hotch nodded, then walked over to Garcia.
"And I want to thank you especially. I don't know what you did or said… but something you did or said helped him to decide to know the gender. And I want to thank you for that. You really helped him take a big step. And… I really owe you, Penelope. Thank you." She stared at him, then gave him a sparkling smile.
"Thank you, sir." She gasped. Hotch smiled back at her.
"And thank you for putting up with him."
"Oh. Not at all, sir. Just as long as he doesn't go into labor in my office like JJ did." She said, and everyone laughed again. Hotch just smiled, shaking his head.
"Good night. I'll see you all tomorrow." And he left, meeting Reid at the car. They climbed in and drove to Reid's loft. Reid sighed and stared at the stairs, then proceeded to drag himself up. Hotch just smiled and followed.

A man sat in his car across the street from Reid's loft, staring up at the light in the windows until it flicked off. He snorted and turned on the engine, content that the pair were in for the night. Then he pulled away, smirking to himself.
That boy had been a wreck. He was a lot better now, but… well… it was hard to ignore the evidence, though he didn't believe it at first. That boy, Spencer Reid, was pregnant. And he was dead sure that Aaron Hotchner was the father.
The man's lip curled in a sneer.
He had followed the pair. Tracked them to the office of Dr. Valerie Tsai, Obstetrician/Gynecologist. He had looked into her. And found she also had a background in Urology.
Then he had followed them to the office of Dr. Melinda Blair, Psychologist of Pre and Post Natal Mental Health. And now… today… He had seen the pair as they left the office. He was hiding in the shadows of the parking garage. For the first time, the kid wasn't wearing a jacket. And he had seen the boy's swelling stomach.
The man smirked as he headed away in the dark. He was going to go after the man's ex and their son. But this… oh, this was too good to pass up. Now it was just a waiting game… When the time was right, he would know. And that time was coming close. The boy wasn't going on cases with the team anymore. It was only a matter of time before he wasn't working at all… Only a matter of time before Hotchner would go out on a case, and the boy would be completely alone… Only a matter of time before he would have that boy in his clutches… Only a matter of time before Agent Hotchner saw his world crashing down around him…
"Oh, Agent Hotchner…" He chuckled to himself. "You should have made a deal…"
