"Do you think the gifts are okay?" Fleur tilted her head as she looked at the baby stuff for Henry.
"Well, I sure hope so." Elijah pointed.
"Derek?" Fleur turned.
"Flo, I'm sure she'll love them." Morgan assured her.
"..Fine."
"Come on, just try me on this one."
"Okay." Fleur sighed,"We're here."
"What if he doesn't like me?" Elijah asked as they got out of the car.
"He's a baby. He won't even remember you by tomorrow." Reid nodded.
"First impressions matter, Reid." Elijah pointed.
"You brushed your teeth?" Fleur turned to Morgan as they walked up to the house.
"Yes, Flo, I brushed my teeth." Morgan sighed.
Fleur pointed before Reid knocked on the door.
"I did." Morgan gently nudged her.
After a few minutes, Will opened the door,"Hey, y'all."
"Will, hi." Elijah smiled.
"You're in luck, Henry's just up from his nap." He held the door open for them.
"How's it been like? Being a dad?" Reid asked as they walked in.
"Stressful." Will sighed.
"For the first year, it's hard." Fleur assured him.
"I can't even imagine being a parent." Elijah shook his head.
"Maybe one day, eh?" Will chuckled.
"We'll see." Elijah pointed.
"Hey mama." Morgan smiled as JJ and Henry walked through.
"Hey guys." JJ nodded to them,"He must've known you were coming."
"You ready for your first day back?" Fleur asked.
"I'm a little tired, but I'm sure I'll manage." JJ told them.
"Well, this is for little Henry." Fleur smiled and held out the box.
"Aw, thank you." JJ hummed as Will took the box.
"Can we hold him?" Fleur tilted her head.
"Of course you can. Who wants to hold him first?"
"Elijah." Morgan joked.
"No, what if I break him?" Elijah shook his head.
"You'll be fine." Reid nodded.
"You sure?"
"Perfectly."
"Alright then." Elijah sighed.
"Just gently support his head." JJ slowly handed Henry over.
"Right- Right." Elijah nodded as he looked down at Henry.
Baby Henry looked up, smiling as he babbled.
"Hey baby." Elijah smiled softly.
"You're doing great." Fleur looked at Elijah.
"I think I'm in love." Elijah whispered.
"Have I converted Elijah?" JJ laughed.
"..No."
"I totally have."
"I don't know what you're talking about." Elijah shook his head, holding Henry close to him.
"Don't hog him." Fleur chuckled.
