Disclaimer: I promise I don't Criminal Minds
Ok, so I should probably have said this in the first chapter, but if you haven't seen the episode 'Penelope' this might not make much sense. Also sorry, but this is a pretty short chapter.
Morgan held Garcia as she cried into his chest. He'd just tried to catch the bastard who was after Garcia, but he'd gotten away; of course not without killing a police officer first.
Penelope was shaking in his arms and his heart was aching at the amount of pain she was in.
"It's going to be okay baby girl. I won't let him hurt you." He whispered in her ear before kissing her head. "I won't ever let anyone hurt you again. I love you Penelope, more than you'll ever know." He told her and pulled her closer into his arms.
He felt Penelope's silent tears soak through his t-shirt. Once she stopped shaking and her breathing evened out he pulled away and used one of his hands to cup her cheek. He could see the pain and fear hidden behind her eyes as she looked up at him. He wanted to make her pain go away, to express to her how much he loved her. So in one fluid movement he leaned down and captured her lips. He felt her tense, but within a second she leaned in and wrapped her arms tighter around his waist.
In that moment he tried to express just what he was feeling. How much he loved her, how much he needed her, and how much he wanted her. Everything seemed to slow down as the kiss continued, each expressing their true emotions, until they finally pulled apart for the need to breathe.
"God, I love you Penelope." Morgan whispered a bit breathless as his heart was still racing.
Before anything else could be said they heard footsteps rushing up the stairs toward the apartment. The police had finally arrived.
