Disclaimer I hate you so much for making me keep saying this: I do not own Criminal Minds.
Derek Morgan was a confident 18 year old, he knew everything and anything there was to know about Chicago. He knew where was safe and where wasn't, he knew who you could trust and who not to. He knew how to survive when he needed to.
Derek had friends, mainly male that he met through playing football but they were his friends, on and off the field. There were the odd girls, he always got on with the girls but never was attracted to them, except for one. The Californian wanderer as she was dubbed. His Baby Girl. Since they were 13 she was back and forth from San Francisco and Chicago seeing her best friend, JJ, who'd moved to a place near him. She was for all intent and purposes the epitome of a yo-yo. Back and forth every chance she had, every free moment she got she would be back to see her friend and with it he got to see her.
As he walked to work he turned the corner and saw their friends house, sat on the drive in front of the house was the classic orange caddy and he smiled, his baby girl was back in town. As he looked up towards the house he saw her just at the crucial moment that she collapsed into their friend's arms sobbing. In that instance, work forgotten he ran to her.
Derek Morgan might have been a confident 18 year old, who knew Chicago best but he knew Penelope Garcia better.
