I am officially three months pregnant, I haven't shown Aaron yet but my bump has started to show. The construction on the house has officially started and the blueprints looked great. We still haven't told the kids about the baby but that would change soon. Aaron started packing up his apartment little by little, it was almost time for the Hotchners to move in. The kids were excited to be living together, they couldn't wait until moving day. There were only two more weeks left on construction!

"Y/n!" Aaron called out from his bedroom. I was hanging out at his house, watching a movie, and helping him pack. The kids each had weekend activities so it was just the two of us.

I shouted back, "Yeah, babe?"

"I just got a call, we have a case," I can hear him groan out.

"Oh, okay. I'll call my sister and maybe she can keep Jack too!" I say walking into the room.

"That would be amazing," he pecks my lips.

I blush, "I have something to show you."

He grins, thinking of something naughty. "What?"

I take out my phone, go to the camera, and press record, "Hi there, little one! I know Daddy usually does these videos but it's Mommy's turn."

Aaron smiles, wondering what was going on.

I lifted up my flowy shirt, "You started to show! It made Mama so happy to see that you've grown and popped out a little bit."

Aaron's mouth hangs open and he bends down, stroking my bump, "Hi little one! I-I'm so happy to see your Mommy's bump." He looks at the camera, "I just want you to know I love your Mommy so much. She is giving me the best gift in life, you. Your Mama is also one of the greatest gifts I've been given."

"Awe, Aaron!" My eyes start to water.

Aaron stops the recording, throws the phone on the bed, and starts to kiss me. We really were head over heels for each other. The excitement over my bump was one thing but Aaron has been particularly amorous recently. Usually, I'm the horny one but I'm not complaining.

Aaron continued to kiss me passionately but mumbled, "Marry me."

I stopped kissing him and took a step back, I was shocked... I was silent.

Aaron sighed and ran his fingers through his hair. "Y/n, it was the heat of the moment, I'm sorry."

"Don't be sorry, I understand it, but I'm not ready to take that next step." I frown and so does Aaron, "Baby, I love you and I would love to marry you one day but-"

He cuts me off, I get the feeling that he was a bit disappointed, "I know, everything has happened so fast. We aren't even living together yet."

I put my hand under his chin and lifted up his head, "Exactly, but I want you to know that the idea of spending the rest of my life with you more than excites me."

He gives me a slow and careful kiss, "We have to get going. Can you call your sister?"

I sigh, "Yeah, I can."

"Alright team, this one is a doozy," Penny rushes into the conference room.

"Where are we going this time?" I let out a deep sigh, I was feeling very hungry.

Garcia tries not to smile, "Although it's for unfortunate reasons, you are going to Hawaii!"

"Wow, that's a first!" Morgan smiled and nudged me.

I chuckle, "What, do you want to go swimming with dolphins?"

"Only if you and Prentiss join!" Morgan laughs.

Penny frowns, "I'm a little jealous-"

Hotchner cleared his throat, "We need to focus, all of you. May I remind you we will be focused on the case, there won't be any fun until the case is solved. However, Garcia... you will be coming with us. I've already had it cleared."

I smile, I was going to tease Aaron about being no fun but it warmed my heart that he made it so Garcia could join us. My man was truly the best, god I'm hungry.

I glanced quickly at my stomach, JJ nudged me and gave me a snack bar. I thanked her with my eyes and continued to focus on the briefing, sneaking in a few bites.

I heard Hotchner chuckle at me, "So, Garcia, this case, what kind of victims is our unsub after?"

"Sadly, it's women in their mid to late thirties. They all worked as maids in different mainstream hotels."

"Okay, so at least we have a connection. Seeing as this will be a long flight, wheels up in forty-five minutes. Get your personal lives in order, I'll see you soon." Hotchner nods and heads towards his office.

I call my sister and let her know it'll be a longer trip and that she is welcome to stay at my place or keep the kids at hers. She was amazing and had no problem keeping the little ones.

"Hey, the flowy top won't last forever you know?" JJ said, sitting on top of my desk.

"I know my belly started showing just the other day," I smiled.

JJ laughed, "How did Hotch react? I remember Will almost cried."

"He couldn't stop smiling, kissing my stomach, and then me," I blushed and smiled.

"Why are you so smiley?" Emily laughed while approaching my desk.

"I'll have to tell you later, oh! I have to tell you, girls, something..." I look between the two girls.

"What?"

"What?"

The ladies said at the same time and I laughed, but then I got quiet again. "So earlier today, Hotch and I were making out and in the heat of things...he asked me to marry him."

Their eyes went wide, "What!?!?"

I sighed, "It was the heat of the moment."

"What'd you say, that's so soon!?" Emily's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets.

"Well, we've had this discussion very lightly before and so he knows I'm nowhere ready to get married again. He apologized and realized he spoke out of irrationality." I huff, thinking about all that is happening in my life right now. If it wasn't an accidental marriage proposal then it was getting ready for the Hotchner's move, or it'd be the little one and making sure it's healthy and that it'll have a nursery in time.

"Okay, how are you holding up? You both are not people who rush into things... the kids already knowing about the two of you? A slipped marriage proposal? Y/n, what's the rush?" Emily grips my shoulders, looking deep into my eyes.

My eyes begin to water, seeing as I'm extra emotional these days. "B-because we don't really have a choice."

JJ gives me a hug and strokes my back. She knows there's only so much time before I have to tell the team about our child.

"Of course you do! Not if you're trapped and there is no way you two would be trapped together unless you were to get pregnant or some-" Emily's eyes go wide, "You're pregnant."

I start to cry and JJ nodded, I was happy to be having a baby with Aaron but a part of me still felt ashamed. We started our relationship during the messiest time of my life, I was married for god sake.

Emily began to smile and hugged me, "Awe, Y/n/n, everything is okay! I'm so happy for you and it all makes sense now. I'm sorry for harping on the issue. You two will be the best parents together. You know we're going to spoil that baby, right?"

I give a light-hearted laugh, "I can only imagine, I think JJ and I still have a bit of trauma from our baby showers. I couldn't get the closet to close with all of the gifts!"

"Wait! JJ knew before me! This is bullshit," Emily tried her best to seem mad.

JJ laughed and shrugged her shoulders, "Well, I was the one who suggested she might be pregnant in the first place."
