Penelope Garcia smiled as she walked by Santa at the mall, she turned her head when she heard, "what can Santa get for you young lady"?, she laughed and said, "are you talking to me Santa"?, the man laughed and said, "I sure am, why don't you come over and tell me what you want for Christmas"?, she said, "I don't think that's a good idea".
Santa said, "and why not, don't you believe in the magic of Christmas"?, she said, "of course I do", he patted his lap and said, "well then why don't you come over and tell me what you want for Christmas". She took a deep breath as she climbed into the mans lap, he wrapped his arm loosely around her and said, "so what can Santa get you this year"?, she said, "the only thing I want that I didn't get was my hotstuff".
The man turned his head and said, "your hotstuff"?, she giggled and said, "yes Santa, he is my chocolately goodness, my best friend, the man that has owned my heart for years". Santa said, "have you ever told him how you feel"?, she shook her head and said, "no", he said, "and why not"?, she said, "look at me Santa, I'm a chubby,
geeky nerd, why would a hot specimen of a man like Derek Morgan want a woman like me"?, Santa said, "because maybe he loves you just as much as you love him".
She laughed and said, "thanks Santa but that's not how me and Derek roll, we're best friends but that's it, sadly", Santa smiled and said, "ya never know Penelope",
she said, "how did you know my name"?, the man grinned and said, "I know every boy and girls name Penelope". She stood up and said, "I I I better go", Santa said, "before you go where is your hotstuff this Christmas"?, she said, "all of my friends are gone to visit their family and that includes my hotstuff".
Santa said, "is there anything else that you want since you don't think I can grant your Christmas wish"?, she laughed and said, "nope, I just want my hotstuff", he said, "and if you got Derek for Christmas, what would you do"?, she said, "if I got my hotstuff for Christmas I would never ever let him go again". Santa then handed her a candy cane and said, "be careful what you wish for Penelope".
Penelope kissed his cheek and said, "Merry Christmas Santa", he said, "and Merry Christmas to you to Penelope" and as she climbed down off the platform he laughed and said, "Merryyyyyy Christmassssss ho ho ho". she swallowed hard and waved as she walked quickly toward the exit, when she got to the exit she turned around to wave at Santa one final time but when she turned around he was gone.
She said, "where did he go, where did he get to so fast"?, she shrugged her shoulders and said, "you better get home Garcie before it starts snowing because you have hot cocoa, popcorn, twizzlers and your favorite movie waiting on you" as she climbed into her car and pulled away from the curb. On the way back to her place she turned the radio on and started singing along with the radio.
As she pulled into her parking spot she sighed and said, "Merry Christmas Ester", she then climbed out of her car and headed toward the front door, it wasn't long before she was walking back into her apartment, closing the door behind her. Penelope quickly toed off her shoes and headed through to her bedroom to change into something more comfortable for the evening.
A few minutes later she walked into the living room with her cocoa and snacks in her hand, she then sat down and curled her legs up under her and said, "alright it's time for the annual Penelope Garcia Christmas ritual to beginnnnnnn". She laughed as she put the tv on her favorite movie, she put the remote down and picked up her cup and took a sip and said, "niceeeeee, very niceeeeeeee".
As the movie started she curled up on her side and said, "I wish my hotstuff were here with me", she then sighed and took a sip of her cocoa as her favorite character came into the picture. About middle ways through the movie she started falling asleep and before she knew what was happening someone was knocking on her door, she got up and stumbled toward the door.
She pulled her robe together and said, "Merry Chr" and before she could finish her word she heard the booming voice of her best friend saying. "Merry Christmas baby girl" as he pulled her into his arms.
