Derek Morgan was not a happy agent. This was the fifth time this week that he would awaken without his honey; his Pretty Boy had left early and it was starting to piss Derek off to no end. He walked into the Bullpen with the intent of telling Hotch that Reid needed his extra sleep. Especially since, he was carrying future Morgans.
Derek’s face took on a soft expression at the thought of Spencer and the babies. It was a miracle; seeing how there was only a small percentage of men in the world that had the rare genetic mutation that allowed them to carry children. However, before he could make it to Hotch’s office he was pulled into another one. He was not in the mood this morning. Turning, ready to give whoever thought to touch him a piece of his mind he stopped when saw that it was Garcia.
“I’m not in the mood right now Baby-,” Morgan was cut off by the sob that ripped from her throat. Quickly gathering her in his arms, he held her close hoping to soothe whatever was making her so distraught first thing in the morning.
“Baby Girl what’s wrong?”
Penelope sniffled. “I- I… I didn’t mean to hear. I swear I didn’t mean to but I thought that you were here and I was gonna burst in and shock you guy’s but-,”
“Whoa, whoa what are you talking about, what didn’t you mean to hear?” Derek asked cutting off her ramble.
She looked up at him and wondered if she should tell him. It would break him, he loved Spencer so much and he was only now starting to rely on the rest of the team, opening up and truly trusting them and not just her and Spencer.
“Baby Girl? I’m waiting, what’s got you crying so early?” He gave her a soft smile of comfort.
“God I wish I didn’t have to do this. I am so sorry.” Morgan tensed, he did not like where this was going. He steeled his heart for the blow he knew was going to come. “You know that I love you and that I would never wish anything bad on anyone-,”
“Just tell me.” Derek commanded softly.
“Spencer is sleeping with Hotch!” Penelope rushed out.
Blinking slowly, Morgan thought that he must have woken up in an alternate universe because what Garcia was telling him just wasn’t
possible.
“You’re wrong.” Derek responded without hesitation.
“No, I’m not. I’ve never lied to you before and I wouldn’t just make this up. I came in this morning, super early and I heard them. I thought you were here too. But it’s been going on for six months.”
There was the blow he was waiting for; doing the math in his head, his heart broke. “Those aren’t my kids?” He whispered brokenly looking into her eyes.
“I don’t know. I walked away before I could hear anything else. I am so sorry Derek.” He pulled her into a tight hug and placed a kiss on her temple.
“Thank you Baby Girl. I know you always have my back.”
“Yeah, I just wish that I never had to tell you.”
“So do I.” Pulling away Derek schooled his features he would not let on that anything was wrong. He would investigate, not that he didn’t trust Penelope…he just wanted evidence. He knew what to look for now.
“I have to get to the conference room and you need to get to your bunker.
Penelope looked on worriedly. “Okay. Are you going to be alright?” She was hesitant to let him go.
“Yeah, I’ll be fine. Just do me a favor and do not say anything. Don’t let on that anything is different.”
“Okay.”
“Alright, I’ll see you later baby girl.”
“Alright.”
Penelope sighed as he walked out. This day was going to hell in a hand basket really fast.
