I wanted to write a sweet romance, and came up with this. Enjoy.
Penelope Garcia had never been the one to eavesdrop ,but it was kind of hard when you were waiting for the copying machine to copy everything you needed. The minute she heard Derek Morgan say the word 'love' she was right on the edge of the doorframe of the room he was in with Reid.
"Morgan when you say 'when the right girl' comes along you'll marry, it sounds like you already have met her."
"That's exactly what I'm saying."
Pen leaned back against the wall next to the copying machine trying her hardest to hear every word of the conversation.
"Oh really Morgan? How come you never mention her?"
"Oh I mention her all the time as a matter of fact Reid."
Pen struggled to remember all the girls he talked about in the last month and could only remember one, Tamara Barnes. Yikes.
Luckily, Reid popped the question of Tamara Barnes next, and when Morgan said no, Pen breathed a loud sigh of relief.
She didn't have anything against Tamara, well besides jealousy. The only time Derek and her had ever really had a disagreement was when she was shot and since she had made them have another Pen just didn't think too highly of her.
"So who's the girl Morgan? Do I know her?"
"You know her."
Pen debated in her head who that could be ,and since people were starting to stare at her she grabbed the papers out of the copying machine.
She walked off a second too early, because the next words out of Derek's mouth were:
"For crying out loud Reid, instead of going through all the one night stands I've told you about in the last week let me tell you who it is."
Reid was quiet then, and very interested in what Derek had to say.
'It's Penelope; Reid. She's the only one for me. It's like I don't see anyone but her these days."
Reid's eyebrows went up. "But she has Kevin."
"I know that's why she doesn't know. And I don't want to ruin her relationship. Believe me it's the last thing I want to do."
"You have to tell her Morgan." Reid insisted. "If she really is the one and she marries Kevin then you'll be spending the rest of your life alone!"
"I guess I'll just have to take that chance." Derek said walking off and towards his office.
Reid had never exactly nosed into other people's business before. He had been raised not to. But if there was one thing he ever was gonna do for Derek in the romance department ,he was going to be sure Penelope found out about Derek's feelings.
Meanwhile, Pen sat in her office, trying to figure out who in the world Derek would think was 'the one'.
