Operation Reunite-Ch 1

Penelope Garcia Morgan looked down at the wedding band on her hand, she bit down on her lip as she pulled it off and laid it down on the table in front of Derek and their attorneys. Derek reached out and said, "baby don't do this, this isn't over, we aren't over", she said, "but that's where you're wrong hotstuff, we've been over for a while and neither of us was willing to accept it".

Derek looked at his attorney and said, "can we have some time alone please"?, both Derek and Penelopes attorneys stood up and left the room so that their clients could talk. Derek and Penelope have been married 15 years and are the proud parents of 14 year old twins Hank Spencer and Hannah Francine Morgan and a surprise in 3 year old Zachary David Morgan.

When they started their trial separation it was decided that Penelope would keep custody of the kids and that Derek could see them any time he wanted to and sleep overs were up to the kids. The couple slowly drifted farther and farther apart and the fact other people were showing interest in them didn't help matters.

Hank and Hannah were older so they knew what was going on where Zach didn't, he didn't understand why his parents weren't together anymore, he missed family times with everybody being all together but Derek made sure that when they were together that Zach had all the attention he could handle.

Their marriage finally took a turn for the worse when Penelope showed up at Dereks to pick up the kids and saw a half naked woman in Dereks kitchen. She knew then that things between them were over and the next day she started the process to make their separation a permanent thing.

Currently Derek was standing and looking at his wife, he said, "baby I love you, it's always been you and nobody else", she wiped away the tears that were streaming down her cheeks and said, "Derek I know, I know about you and that that whoever she is". Derek said, "I'm totally lost here sweetness, what who are you talking about"?, she crossed her arms over her chest and said, "do you remember when I showed up at your place to pick up the kids a few weeks ago"?, he thought for a minute and said, "I do".

She said, "when I arrived I saw a woman half naked in your kitchen and trust me Derek Michael Morgan it doesn't take a house to fall on me for me to get the picture". He said, "wait, you're filing for divorce because of Savannah"?, she said, "ohhh is that her name"?, Derek said, "she came over to check Zach, he had been coughing and she listened to his lungs for me and Zach, well he got sick all over her and so I washed and dried her clothes".

Penelope said, "ohhh and the only thing she could find to put on was one of your shirts, pleaseeeeee Derek", he said, "I wasn't interested in her, I'm still not, she's not my type". Penelope said, "since when is a thin and beautiful model not your type"?, he put his hand on hers and said, "please put your rings back on".

She shook her head and said, "it's over Derek", he said, "Penelope look at me", she looked at him and he said, "I've never cheated on you, I love you and you are the only woman I want in my bed, you have to believe me". Penelope took a deep breath and said, "I want to Derek but I, I, I can't, not after what I saw".

As she walked to the door Derek said, "I'll never give up on us", Penelope glanced over her shoulder and as she opened the door she said, "I didn't think I would either but life showed me otherwise". Hank, Hannah and Zach stood up and Derek said, "hey guys, if we don't get called out on a case I'll be by later to pick you up".

The kids grinned and said, "okay daddy" as they reluctantly followed their mother up the hall, as Derek watched the best things that had ever happened to him walking away he said, "I will get you back, I will make you see that we belong together baby girl". Hank gently punched his sister on the shoulder and said, "we've got to do something".

Hannah said, "like what"?, Hank said, "we can't let mom and dad get a divorce", Hannah said, "what can we do"?, he smiled and said, "I say we think of a way to get mom and dad back together". Hannah smiled and said, "sounds good but we're going to need help", Hank said, "mom I've got to go to the bathroom".

Penelope said, "alright buddy it's right over there, I'm going to go ahead and get Zach strapped in", Hank said, "okay mom" as he watched her and their baby brother walk away. Hannah said, "now what"?, he said, "now we get backup", she said, "backup but who"?, he said, "ohhhh ye of little faith little sister".

Hannah then watched as he pulled his cell out and dialed a familiar number, he then put the phone between them and put it on speaker and after a few rings they heard, "SPENCER REID". Hank and Hannah both grinned as Hank said, "uncle Spence we need your help", he said, "help what kind of help"? and Hannah said, "getting mom and dad back together before it's to late".

Spencer laughed and said, "count me in, count us all in" as they then started making plans to reunite the recently separated couple
