Derek Morgan and I

Derek grabbed me, lifting me up; he guided me out of the restaurant that we had booked out for the night. Behind us was mom, Spencer, Fran, Sarah, Desiree, Aaron, Emily, Penelope, JJ and Rossi. As we ran into the street I swore I seen Gideon. As Derek ushered me into a car I watched the man down the street. We took off to the hospital. Derek helped me out of the car and into the hospital. I couldn’t help but think how much of a movie moment I was in. Derek was yelling for a nurse while I was trying to control my breathing. A nurse came running to help me into a wheel chair to rush me into the maternity ward.

“Before we go you can only take 3 people in with you” the nurse said
“Derek, Spencer and Sarah” I said
“Everyone else will have to wait in the maternity ward waiting room” the nurse said

She rushed me off into a prepared room. They helped me into the chair or bed what ever it was I don’t know I was trying to stop my self from passing out. They removed my wedding dress and got me to put on blue night dress. I had nurses telling me what to do. Derek had one of my hands and I’m near sure I broke his fingers. Spencer look paler then normal and Sarah was trying to keep Spencer up right. How do I know this? Well when you’re pushing a child out of you for 12 hours you really need something else to look at.

After 12 hours of labour I heard the small cries of a child. As I lay catching my breath the doctor asked me to give one more small push. I did. The doctor called Derek over a few seconds later Derek returned carrying a small bundle.

“It’s a boy” Derek smiled
“Oh great that’s all we need” I said
“What are we going to call him?” Derek asked
“We already discussed this I said if it was a girl we were calling her Isabella Fran Desrah Morgan and if it is a boy we were calling him Diego Ceron Gideon Morgan” I said
“Okay Diego it is” Derek smiled
“Come on we’re going to move you into a room” a nurse said

They brought in a bed in which they moved me onto from there they took me to a room.

“What about the baby?” I asked
“You need to sleep we’re going to take Derek down and show him how to wash baby Diego” the nurse said

The nurse left and I drifted off to sleep. I must have been asleep awhile because when I woke up it was dark out. Derek was no where to be seen but there was now a clear tub in my room with a little bundle in it. I climbed out of the bed and walked over to the tub. I looked in at the little boy sleeping inside. He was so small. I brushed a finger down his cheek before climbing back in bed. I went back to sleep.

The next morning I woke up to Derek whispering.

“Hay little man can’t be loud now mama’s sleeping” he bounced the bundle in his arm
“Don’t I get a hug” I pouted
“You wanna go to mama” Derek asked “Okay mama here you go”

I took the baby moving the blanket from his face. His dark eyes looked up at me. A small smile broke out on his face.

“Oh I get your gunna be a mama’s boy” Derek moved next to me
“You tell Daddy your only taking after him” I smiled
“Hay that’s not fair” Derek said
“But you know it’s true” I said
“You got visitors” Derek said “I’ll send them in while I go to get coffee”
“Okay” I said

Fran, Sarah, Desiree, Spencer, Aaron, Dave, Emily, JJ, Penelope, Kevin and Mom all crowded my little room.

“Now I know your not all suppose to be in here at once” I said
“Well we pulled some strings” Kevin said
“Penelope” I said
“We really wanted to see you and I knew the only way we could all come in was if the rules said so it was just a little tweak a promise” she said
“What did you do?” I asked
“I sent a message to all the hospitals saying that patient visiting numbers are going up from 4 to 12 at a time” Garcia hid behind Kevin
“He isn’t going to protect you” I said
“Hay enough of the negative I wanna see my Gran baby” Fran smiled

I lay watching the baby do the rounds of the waiting faces of its new family. All I know is that at this time my life is great. I have a wonderful husband, a beautiful son, a great job and many caring friends as well as family. Right now life is good.
