Map Of Pleasure-Ch 1

Penelope Garcia was just finishing some searches for B team when she heard a knock at her door, she turned around in her chair and said, "come in" and she was all smiles when she saw a bouquet of roses coming toward her. She said, "those are beautiful. who are they from"?, Anderson handed them over to her and said, "no idea but their is a card, maybe that will help you Penelope".

As he turned around and walked out of the room she said, "thank you Anderson", he smiled and said, "you're welcome ohhh and Happy Birthday" causing her to grin as her attention went back to her roses. She pulled the envelope off of the roses and slowly opened it up and pulled the card out.

She was in awe as she read the card that said, "IT'S AT THE EDGE OF THE PETAL THAT LOVE WAITS- WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS", she tapped the card to her chin as she tried to figure out who would have sent her such beautiful flowers. Penelope was so deep in thought that she didn't hear another knock on her door.

She jumped when she felt to hands on her shoulders, Derek said, "sorry sweetness, I called your name several times but you didn't answer so I came on in, I hope it's alright"?, she smiled up at him and said, "it's more than fine sugar". Derek said, "wow those are beautiful flowers, who sent them to ya, Sam, Kevin, somebody new"?, she said, "that's what I was wondering" as she handed him the card.

When he was finished reading it he said, "niceeeeee, very nice", he then handed her the card back and said, "are you ready"?, she said, "uhhh for what"?, he said, "it's your birthday and what's our tradition"?, she said, "ohhhhh, sorry I was so excited about the flowers that I, well I kind of forgot our tradition".

Derek put his hand over his heart and said, "I'm wounded butttt since it's your birthday I'll let it slide", he then kissed the top of her head and then held out his arm for her. She happily slid her arm through his as they headed out of her office and down the hall heading toward the elevator in the corner.

Once they stepped inside and the doors closed Derek sighed and said, "sooooo what's your plans for today baby"?, she said, "wellll other than the surprise party the girls are throwing me, nothing". His mouth flew open and he said, "you know about the party"?, she said, "well I kinda over heard a conversation between my besties sooooo please don't tell them that I know, I wouldn't want to hurt their feelings".

Derek smiled and said, "you can count on me sweetness, you can always count on me", as they stepped off the elevator she sighed happily wondering who she knew that would have sent her such beautiful roses. They enjoyed their lunch and they sat laughing and talking and then sooner than she expected they were called back to the BAU.

As they stepped off the elevator a few minutes later Hotch said, "Garcia can you grab your things and meet us in the round table room"?, she said, "on it bossman" and then disappeared down the hall heading toward her lair. When she walked into her room she saw a red heart shapped box in front of her computers.

She walked over and picked up the box and saw a card so she quickly picked it up and read, "SWEETS FOR MY SWEET", she said, "hmmmm, this is getting me more and more curious, who is sending me this stuff". When she grabbed her things she turned to head out and when she stepped out into the hall she literally bumped into another delivery person.

He said, "Penelope Garcia"?, she said, "that's me, what can I do for ya"?, he said, "sign here please", she signed her name and then he handed her a envelope before walking away. Penelope bit down on her bottom lip as she opened the envelope, she was intrigued when she read, "FOLLOW THE MAP AND FIND MORE PLEASURE THAN YOU'VE EVER KNOWN".

She felt her heart racing as she tucked the card back into her pocket and raced down the hall toward the round table room, when she walked in everybody turned around and looked at her and Derek said, "are you alright sweetness, you look a little flushed"?, she said, "I I I", Dave said, "kitten's speechless it must be something big".

Derek walked over and said, "what happened"?, she said, "I went to my lair to grab my things and I saw a box of candy sitting on my desk and they said, "sweets for my sweets on them" and as I was walking out into the hall I ran into another delivery man that handed me another envelope", Reid said, "what was in the envelope"?, she pulled the card out and handed it to Reid.

Derek said, "what does it say pretty boy"?, Reid said, "Garcia either has an admirer or a stalker" as he handed the card over to Derek, after he read it he looked at Penelope and said, "baby girl maybe the kids right, maybe you have a stalker"?, Penelope said, "I think I have an admirer and I think I'm going to follow the map and see what happens".

Derek opened his mouth to say something and Penelope said, "I'm a big girl hotstuff and I'll be fine", he pulled her into his arms and said, "I know you're a big girl goddess, that's one of the things that I like about you" causing her to grin as they all started singing, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR PENELOPEEEEE, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUUUUU" and Derek quickly said, "AND MANY MOREEEEEEEE" causing Penelope to grin as Fran carried a small cake into the room.

Penelope said, "ohhhhh is this my favorite"?, Fran said, "of course, now would I fix any other kind on your special day", Penelope smiled as she wrapped her arms around the older woman. As they all started digging in to the cake Derek listened on as Penelope started filling Fran in on her birthday gifts from her admirer.
