BETTER TOGETHER [18+] ✔️

Part 23

October 30th, 2019 - 8:30PM

I'm officially in my 9th month and ready to pop any day now. We have the team over for our Halloween party. We didn't dress up this time because I didn't feel like it so everyone decided not to as well.

We are sat around the fire pit as Reid tells another one of his ghost stories. I'm tucked into Jennifer's side sipping on some warm tea. I haven't been feeling good the past few days. My back has been hurting more and I feel like he has dropped a lot. I barley wanna get out of bed some days.

I tense up when a pain shots through me, my hand goes to my stomach rubbing circles against it.

"You okay?" I hear Jennifer whisper into my ear.

"Yeah just a sharp kick" I said lying. "I have to pee" she helps me stand and I make my way into the house. I go into the bathroom and brace myself against the counter looking down at my stomach.

"Look, if you wanna make your appearance now mommy would NOT be upset. Everyone is ready to meet you." I stand there a few more minutes then make my way back outside. Before I reach the back door I feel a gush of liquid run down my legs. "Well that's one way to grace us" I grip the back of the couch as a pain shots up my back. After it ends I go to the back door standing there.

"Uh, so my water just broke.."

"WHAT?!" Everyone jumps up stumbling over each other as they run over to me. Jennifer reaches me first.

"Have you had any contractions yet?" We all make our way into the house. Garcia and Tara mopped up the floor while Jennifer helped me upstairs to change. The guys were trying not to freak out. I could hear Reid and Derek arguing about who was grabbing the SUV.

"No, not yet" she helped me get undressed and then herself before we climbed into the shower. We stood in there for about 20 minutes. She helped me out and we got dressed going back downstairs.

"Everything okay?" Reid asked watching me with wide eyes.

"Yes Spence I'm okay"

11:30PM - Virginia Medical Hospital

It wasn't until 2 hours later that we had to finally go to the hospital. We stayed home as long as we could.

Once we arrived we were shown to the room we had reserved for weeks now. Jennifer had us a suite. She wanted us to be comfortable. We got situated, they got me hooked up to the machines; now we wait.

"Your mom is on her way" Jennifer said walking into the room with Garcia.

"Oh good!" Garcia came over and put my hair into a ponytail.

"Garcia.. I need to run something by you" I grabbed her hand bringing it to my stomach. "How would you feel about being this little guys Godmother? I mean it's no surprise that it would be you but I wanted to officially ask..." she looked at me with tears in her eyes.

"Oh Emily.. Of course! I love this little guy more than anything in this world and he's not even here yet!" She leaned down pulling me into a hug. "I love you"

"I love you too Garcia"

12:20AM - Room 212

"Oh Emily! Your dad and I got here as fast as we could!" My mom said as she came into the room 40 minutes later. She caught the earliest flight she could when we called earlier.

"Mom you're here!" She came over pulling me into a hug, her fingers running through my hair.

"Of course babygirl! How are you feeling? Do you need anything?" She asked sitting beside me on the bed while my dad talked to Jennifer.

"No, I'm fine for right now. The pain isn't too terrible yet. He'll be a Halloween baby that's for sure"

5:30 AM - Room 212

October 31st - Halloween

It's time for me to push, after being in labor for 2 days now, it's finally time for me to have my first child. Jennifer and my mom were on either side of me while Garcia filmed everything of course. Even though we see gross stuff everyday, Jennifer couldn't handle seeing the birth of our first child.

"You ready mommy?" Our doctor said coming into the room.

"More than ever" the pain was finally catching up to me. I felt it in every part of my body. I did not want to go through this pain ever again.

"On the next contraction I want you to push" I laid back and waited until it was time to push. She counted to ten each time I pushed.

What felt like an eternity later, it was actually 45 minutes later, our baby came into the world. I couldn't stop the tears that ran down my face when they laid him on my chest.

Jennifer watched their every move with him while they got me cleaned up and taken care of. 7 pounds, 5 ounces, 18 inches long. He is absolutely perfect.

7AM - Room 212

Jennifer sat beside me on the bed as we stared at our son. He was the perfect mix of us. He didn't have any hair yet, a few pieces but that's all. We counted his toes and fingers at least 20 times and gave him a thousand kisses. I didn't want to put him down but I also needed rest. Jennifer ran her fingers through my hair as my head laid in her lap. My eyes were trained on our son.

"I love you so much Emily Prentiss"

"I love you too Jennifer Jareau"
