Hey guys, I'm having a bit of a writer's block on my other story and I'm just not feeling the story right now, so I'm starting another story in hopes that once I start writing this one things will just pop into my head for the other story, anyways. Hope you like it!
Finding Love
Chapter one:
"Morning baby girl" Morgan said with a grin as he walked into the bullpen
"Morning hot stuff how was your weekend?"
"It was good mama, me and Reid had a bit of o movie night on Saturday and then I went up to one of my houses on Sunday and started fixing it up, How was yours?"
"You had a movie night without me? It was horrible, me and Kevin had like this huge argument and we haven't spoken since"
"Sorry it was boys night, next time though" After he said that, Morgan moved around to Garcia and put his arm around her and said "Well that's his loss then, because any man would be lucky to have you" He kissed the top of her head and moved to face her again.
Garcia playfully punched Morgan's arm and said "You always know how to cheer me up"
"What are best friends for?" They stood grinning at each other for a few moments and then Morgan broke the silence "We need to get to work, but we'll go out for lunch my treat"
"Okay, 1 sound good"
"Yeah, I'll meet you in your cave" After that they both went to their respected work areas and got on with their day as usual when they didn't have a case. Morgan caught up on paper work and Garcia helped out other areas of the bureau.
Morgan looked up to see that Reid had almost done half his paper work and it had only just gone 12 "Pretty boy, fancy helping a brother out" Morgan had about 4 extra files in his hand.
"Fine, Pass them here, you guys really need to stop passing your paper work onto me"
"Well if you didn't except more work then we wouldn't ask you to do it"
"But if I don't then you get mardy"
"Me…Get mardy"
"You must have me confused"
"He's right Morgan" Prentiss chirped up "You do tend to get a little touchy" at that point Reid and Prentiss looked at each other and started laughing.
Morgan rose from his chair and asked "I'm going to get some more coffee, anybody want some?"
"I'll have another cup" Prentiss held his cup out for Morgan to get.
"What about you pretty boy?"
"Erm…Yeah, I'll come with you" Reid grabbed his cup and followed Morgan to the break room.
"So, what were you and Garcia talking about this morning?"
"Nothing really she asked what I did at the weekend and she told me that her and Kevin had a bit of a falling out"
"Now's your chance Morgan"
"Chance for what?"
"To tell her how you really feel"
"I can't do that, not now"
"Why not? She's fallen out with Kevin and you can be her knight and shining armour!"
"No, I can't do that, what if she doesn't feel the same way then it will get awkward and out friendship will be ruined"
"Doesn't feel the same way, are you kidding, we can all see how you two act together, she needs you as much as you need her!"
"What if you're wrong? Then what, we just have awkward conversations now and again, I can't lose her Reid"
"And you won't, remember what we talked about on Saturday?"
"Yeah, I remember"
"You won't know unless you tell her, what if she feels the same but she's like you, just too afraid to tell you?"
"Reid I…"
"…No! Morgan you're not going to second guess you're self, you have to tell her!"
"What am I supposed to say? Hey Garcia I think I'm in love with you?"
"No! Well yes, but not quite like that. Take her to lunch or dinner even invite her round to yours for a movie night. Quite frankly I don't care how you tell her just tell her!"
"I'm taking her to lunch this afternoon, if I tell her and it doesn't work, I'm blaming you!"
Morgan looked down at his watch and saw that it was 12:20, "we better go give Prentiss her coffee before she gets cranky" Reid laughed and grabbed his and Prentiss cup and headed back to the bullpen.
"What took you so long?" She teased
"Had to refill the coffee machine" Morgan lied
"Why are we always the ones to fill it?" Prentiss sounded annoyed
"Because the agents that work in white collar have no manners" Reid chuckled and Prentiss and Morgan started to laugh as well. All three of them got back to work. Morgan was half way through one of his many files when he looked at his watch and saw that it was 12:55. He stood up and put the folder in his unfinished pile. He grabbed his jacket and walked over to the door of Garcia's office while putting his jacket on. He reached the door and knocked. Garcia saw the time and knew who it was so she shouted "Enter if you dare"
Morgan walked in and started to laugh "Women you're crazy"
"But you wouldn't have me any other way"
"No I wouldn't"
"So where we going to lunch?"
"I was thinking I'd treat you to Benny's" Benny's was Garcia's favourite place to eat in the world. Morgan sure knew the way to her heart.
"Really?" She squeaked
"Really, I want to treat you, you deserve it"
"Do I ever tell you I love you?"
"It's implied every day. Come on grab your coat and bag; we've only got an hour for lunch"
Garcia grabbed her things and headed out of her office with Morgan by her side. That's when she was the happiest, when it was just her and Morgan.
They reached Morgan SUV and they headed out to Benny's"
"I'm thinking about the chocolate chip pancake stack, what about you mama?"
Garcia grinned, Morgan knew that was her favourite, come to think of it, Morgan knew pretty much everything about her, and she guess' why there friendship is so strong "Sound good to me" She finally replied.
They pulled up into the car park and climbed out of the SUV. They walked over to the entrance and like the gentlemen he was, Morgan held the door open for Garcia. They sat at their usual booth and they ordered 2 large chocolate chip pancake stacks. When the waitress left. Garcia started to talk.
"Kevin's never brought me here. I don't even think he knows that it's my favourite place" Her bottom lip started to quiver
Morgan reached over and ever so gently lifted her head so they were looking into each other's eyes "Hey baby girl, look at me and stop crying. You deserve so much better than him, don't sell yourself short, because you're an amazing women, you're funny, intelligent and most importantly you're you, and don't change that for anybody. You got me?" Morgan rose his hand to wipe away some of the tears that were rolling down Garcia's cheek.
"You my friend have raised the bar too high for any man to ever reach" Morgan brought Garcia's hand to his lips and kissed the back of her hand ever so gently.
"Garcia I need to tell you something but I don't want you to freak okay?
"Oh my god, you're getting married aren't you, I've noticed you've been a little more reserved lately. Aww I'm happy for you, so who's the lucky girl?"
"Women, I love you but you need to stop jumping to conclusions!" At that point, Morgan held both of Garcia's hands in his, looked her in the eye and said "I love you"
