It's raining, it's pouring

I do not own Criminal Minds. It's a shame really. I would move to HBO for more fun!

Derek sighed while looking out of his large bay window. It was absolutely pouring outside. It was a Wednesday and Hotch had given them a 5 day vacation. The temperature was about 57 degrees, and there was no sign the sun ever existed. Derek tried everything to cure his boredom. First he rearranged his classic record collection. Then he did twice as many sit ups and pushups that he normally did. He even cracked open his copy of Training Dogs for Dummies. Clooney his beautiful golden retriever just looked at Derek like he was stupid and went back to sleep on his dog bed.

Derek was in the middle of going through his junk drawer in the kitchen when he heard a knock on the door.

Derek wondered, "Who the hell could be crazy enough to be out in this weather?"

Derek walked over to the door, and looked through the peephole. As soon as he saw a soaked Garcia, he flew open the door.

Derek said a little bewildered, "Baby girl not that I don't love you, and miss your pretty face, but why are you out in this?"

Penelope looked furious and said, "Derek I had to get the hell out of my apartment."

Derek said concerned, "Baby girl, why?"

Penelope blurted out, "Kevin and I broke up. He tried to move in with me. I told him no, we got into a huge fight. I don't want to talk about it right now. I am uber serious."

In a comforting tone, "Hey baby it is okay. But get your sexy self in here before you drown."

Derek closed, and then locked the door.

Penelope was starting to shake. Derek grabbed some clean towels from a hallway closet, and handed them to Penelope. He then located the panel in his hallway to turn the heat up, and ran upstairs to get her some dry clothes.

Derek came jogging down stairs. At the second to the last step at the bottom Derek stopped dead in his tracks. The way Penelope's clothes were clinging to her body took his breath away. He could see her blood red bra through her shirt.

Derek thought to himself, "Derek damn it not now, she literally just got out of a relationship. At least give her a minute."

Derek handed her the dry clothes and told her she could change in the downstairs bathroom.

Penelope started walking towards the guest bathroom, Derek tried really hard not to stare at her ass but it wasn't working. To him she was the true definition of, "I hate to watch her go, but I love to watch her leave."

Derek noticed that Penelope had bought a bottle with her. He turned the glass bottle around, and let out a low whistle. It was an 18 year old bottle of Rossi's brand of scotch. He placed the bottle back down, and called out, "Hey baby girl is everything okay?"

"Yes my love I will be out in a minute. Hey Derek why do you have a blow dryer, you have no hair?"

Derek chuckled and said, "Nosey it is for when my mom and sisters visit. You are the only non Morgan to use it, so if you want to go for it."

Derek heard the whir of the dryer. He sat down on his large mocha comfy leather couch, and turned the TV on.

After about 15 minutes Penelope came out of the bathroom looking as though she had never been caught in the rain. Her hair was blown straight, and she was wearing one of Derek's FBI training shirts. It was about 10 years old, and was made soft from years of washing. She also had a pair of his sweat pants on.

When Penelope came out of the bathroom he turned the TV off.

Penelope did a turn and said, "Hey hot stuff you like my new wardrobe?"

Derek arched his eyebrows and said, "Mama you look good in my clothes."

"Aww flattery will get you everywhere SSA Derek Morgan."

"So baby you wanna tell me what happened with Lynch today?"

Penelope sighed and said, "Not really handsome but I know I need to talk about it, and you have the best ears in all of Quantico."

Derek patted the couch cushion next to him and said, "Well thank you. Come on tell your baby boy all about it."

Penelope is a thoughtful tone said, "Well how about this, we can crack open the bottle of scotch Rossi gave me for Christmas, and I will tell you."

Derek got up from the couch and said, "Deal, I will get the glasses and the bottle, and you keep your cute ass on the couch and tell me everything.

Penelope smiled and said, "You got yourself a deal agent hot stuff."

Just then Penelope's phone rang. She looked at the caller id, and it said Kevin. She didn't know why she chose this moment to think about it, but only her BAU family had nicknames in her phone. JJ was Blondie, Hotch was Hotch Rocket, Rossie was Godfather, Reid was Boy Wonder, Emily was Sexy Spy, and Derek has always been Hot stuff in her phone.

She sighed and answered it.

"Hello Kevin."

Kevin whined at Penelope saying, "Penelope where are you, we need to finish our talk."

Penelope rolled her eyes, and said with an angry tone, "Uhh no we don't. Kevin I don't want to live with you. Just deal with it."

"But why Penny? It is because of him isn't it?"

"Who?"

Kevin in spat out, "You know who, don't play dumb, you are way too smart for that."

Penelope rolled her eyes and said, "I swear Kevin if you are talking about Derek-"

Derek's ears felt like they were burning when he heard his name.

Penelope continued. "He is my best friend. You know that, and nothing more."

Kevin yelled, "Admit you are in love with him. Admit that you are a liar."

Kevin hung up the phone, and trudge through Penelope's apartment in search for hard liquor. He found a bottle of Stoli in her freezer. He set out to find a decent chaser. Once he found a warm bottle of coke, he sat down at the small coffee table, and started to drink. He had told himself that if he gave Penelope a little bit of time she would come around. If she needed to bang Derek Morgan and realize he was nothing but a player, he was going to let it happen.

Derek came around the corner of the kitchen, and said "Well he sounded upset."

Penelope dejectedly said, "Yeah I know, and now he is going to start drinking, and then the frequent calling would start."

In a serious tone Derek said, "Well doll face we need to catch up, and you need to start talking."

Derek handed Penelope a half full glass of scotch, and sat down with his own and the bottle.

Penelope took a small sip.

Derek chuckled and said, "Nu-uh, baby girl the first we are not nursing. That's it let it slide down your throat."

Penelope laughed and said, "That's what she said."

Derek chuckled again, and threw back his own large shot. He refilled the glasses halfway again .

Penelope could already feel the effects of the scotch. She took another small sip, and then she took a cleansing breath and started telling Derek what happened.

"Well handsome you see, I like my space. There are very few people I let in my sanctuary. Hell when I started dating Kevin I wouldn't let him know where I lived.

"That's actually pretty smart mama. Sorry go on."

Penelope teased, "You are all good playa."

Derek laughed a deep laugh at that one. He still remembers the day he called her to narrow down some cab companies, and out of left field she said. "Don't hate the playa, hate the game."

Penelope took another sip and started back with her story smiling at the memory of their phone conversation as well.

"Well Kevin is a mess; he leaves his crap all over my apartment. I once threatened to kill him if his underwear was not picked up off the bathroom floor."

Derek shuddered he did not want to be thinking about Kevin's tighty whities.

Penelope grimaced and said, "I guess that grossed you out, sorry. "

"Uh hell yes, don't nobody wanna be thinking about that."

"Ha ha sorry. Oh what was I saying. Anyway he is a messy idiot. I swear it gave me flashbacks of Gideon leaving those gross rings of soy sauce all over my desk, and his files were all over the place. Plus all he wants to do is play computer games. I like the games too but, really he never wanted to go anywhere or do anything if it didn't involve a computer game.

Derek shook his head and thought, "If I was with her I would take her out every night, just to show the world that he was in love with a smoking hot red head."

"Earth to Derek did I lose you baby?"

Derek took a swig of scotch and said, "Nope, I am still here. Go on and finish"

"Then he found out I gave you a key, and I wouldn't give him one. That fight lasted five days. I didn't know how to explain that I don't want him just popping over. "

In a quizzical tone Derek said, "So you don't mind me just coming over?"

"Never my prince, Mi casa is su Casa."

Derek's voice dipped low and he said, "Garcia I am going to hold you to that, and if you just so happen to be naked…."

"As long as you promise to ravish me."
