"What about Gideon?" asked Spencer.
He and I were snuggling on the couch and watching some movie with the actress Lila Archer.
JJ had told me that the team had been sent to protect her when people close to her we're being murdered. Spencer was...well...he had a crush on her. Morgan told me they kissed in the pool. Not sure how he knows, but I didn't question it.
Spencer, being to protective husband he is, told me that she was nothing like me and that I was 1000% prettier and that he loves me more and blah blah blah.
I was a fan of Lila's. She was a great actress. And, in all honesty, I didn't really care about Spencer's past. It was just that. The past. She had him, well, kissed him once. I had him now and forever.
"What about him?" I asked.
"No. I mean, what about the name Gideon. If we have a boy."
I laughed and kissed Spencer.
"I am not naming my son Gideon." I said. "Maybe a middle name, but definitely not a first name."
"Okay, how about Jason?"
I laughed again and rolled my eyes.
"Jason Gideon Reid? No, sweetheart." I replied. "Why do you want to name him after Gideon anyways?"
"Because Gideon was like my mentor. Why not name him after Gideon?"
"I'll put Gideon into consideration as a middle name. Give me a real first name."
He took a moment to think about it. I rested my head on his shoulder and waited for him to answer.
"Sammy."
I smiled.
"Sammy Gideon Reid." I recited. "Perfect."
Spencer chuckled and kissed my head. I knew the story about Sammy Sparks.
Sammy was an autistic kid who's parents were kidnapped. He made a connection with Spencer. He taught Spencer how to play the piano. It was the piece he was playing when his parents were kidnapped. Spencer played the piece for me on our first date. Well, it was kind of a first date. He took me out for my birthday.
"Your turn." he said.
I sat up to look at him, raising one eyebrow.
"My turn to what?" I asked.
"Pick a name. I chose the name if its a boy. If its a girl, what do you want to name her?" he asked.
I had to do some hard thinking on this. I wanted to name my child something with meaning. Something that meant something to me and to Spencer. An important name, like Sammy Gideon. That meant something to us.
I smiled when the perfect names popped into my mind.
"Haley Emily." I said.
"Haley Emily?" he asked. "Why Haley Emily?"
"Haley after Aunt Haley and Emily after Emily Prentiss." I said. "Haley means something to me and Emily means something to you. It's a perfect name."
Spencer smiled and kissed my forehead.
"It is perfect. Just like you."
I blushed. After over a year of dating and 6 months of marriage plus a baby on the way and he still knew how to make me blush like a little girl.
"Well, Haley Emily or Sammy Gideon. Just know that you won't have a normal life growing up." Spencer said, talking to my still small stomach. I smiled.
"But you don't need normal." I continued. "You're life will be better then normal. It'll be amazing."
"And dangerous." Spencer said. "With both your parents in the FBI."
"It just means we know how to protect you, sweetheart. That's all. Never be mad at us for being away for long, okay? We'll miss you and we'll be back soon."
I wrapped my arms around my stomach, almost like giving little Haley or Sammy a hug. In 8 months time, I'd be holding him or her in my arms.
I tried to imagine what my baby boy or girl would be like. I could see him or her with Spencer's eyes. I could see them with my nose and my hair, if it was a girl. If it was a boy, I could see him with Spencer's hair.
"8 more months." I said, resting my head on Spencer's shoulder again. "In 8 more months, we'll be holding baby Sammy or baby Haley. And he or she will be ours..
Spencer kissed my forehead. We watched the movie for a bit more before I slowly drifted off to sleep.
*A/N: hey guys! I was wondering if you guys could help me. I don't know what the next case should be. I wanted it to be something in Louisiana and Reid could go visit Sammy. If you guys have any ideas, comment them below and I'll give you credit for the idea. Love you guys. Thanks for reiding.*
