Merry Ex-Mas-Ch 4
The rest of the day went good as Penelope spent the day with the rest of the team at JJ and Reids place and Michelle spent the afternoon laughing and playing in the park with her daddy. When Derek carried Michelle into the house he was surprised to find Savannah parading around in nothing but one of his shirts.
He said, "Savannah why are you dressed like that when you knew my baby would be here"?, she said, "I was hoping that your momma could watch her for a while and we could have a little quality time aloneee". He said, "sorry to disappoint you but she's here for the night with me and her and bab I mean Penelope are in town for a week so she will be with me a lot while they are here".
She put her hands on her hips and said, "what about me"?, he looked down at his little girl and said, "how about a cookie honey"?, she nodded her head and said, "tan I hab milt to daddy"?, he smiled and said, "you sure can, why don't you go on in the kitchen and daddy will be right there"?, she smiled at him and said, "tayyyyyy daddy" as she ran into the kitchen.
Derek leaned in and said, "that little girl is my life and you will be nice to her do you hear me"?, she said, "I'm sorry that I said anything it's obvious where I rate in your life". He rolled his eyes as he headed into the kitchen, she blew out a breath and said, "I will get an engagement ring on my finger before Christmas or else".
Penelope was sitting out on the back porch looking up at the blackening sky, she wrapped her coat tighter around her and said, "there must be a storm coming"?, Reid walked out onto the porch and said, "yeah the radio has been talking about a possible storm front moving in on us". She sighed and said,
"how did my life come to this Spencer"?, he walked over and hugged her and said, "everythings going to be alright Garcia, I promise".
JJ walked to the door and said, "I believe somebody is wanting his aunt P to tuck him in and read him a bedtime story", she smiled and said, "well I do believe I'm the woman for the job". She put her hand on Reids shoulder and said, "thanks Spencer", he smiled at her and said, "anytime Garcia", he then watched as she headed inside the house.
Emily walked out onto the back porch and said, "so is the plan still a go"?, he turned and smiled and said, "definitely, before Penelope and Michelle leave to go back to California with Sam we need to have Derek and Penelope back together". She smiled and said, "we're ready on our end of the plan all that we're waiting on is for Christmas Eve right"?, he nodded his head and said, "right, just be sure to bring plenty of mistletoe with you to Morgans place".
Emily laughed and said, "already on it Spencer, already on it", he laughed and said, "is it wrong for us to be doing this, to be plotting to get them back together"?, she crossed her arms and said, "I don't think so, they are meant to be together and all we need to do is make sure that Savannah and Sam aren't a problem anymore".
Reid opened his mouth to agree with her and then there was a knock at the door, he sighed and said, "I better get that", he walked through the kitchen and living room and answered the door. He smiled and said, "can I help you"?, the man held out his hand and said, "yes I'm looking for Penelope I'm her fiancee Sam".
He stepped aside and said, "come in Sam come in, she's upstairs reading a bedtime story to my son right now", he smiled as he shook hands with Spencer as he stepped inside the house. Reid said, "this is one of our good friends Emily Hotchner and this is her husband Aaron Hotchner, and this is David Rossi and his wife Fran Morgan Rossi and my wife, welllllll she's upstairs with Penelope right now but you'll meet her soon".
Sam waved and said, "it's nice to meet you all, Penleope has told me so much about you all that it feels like I know you already", they all smiled at him as they one by one shook hands. Savannah put on her happy face as they all sat on the couch watching tv, she looked down and Michelles eyes were trying to close.
She nudged Derek and said, "she's sleepy honey why don't you tuck her in and then we can have a little celebration of our own", he kissed the top of his daughters head and said, "come on princess it's time for you to head to bed". He stood up and carried her up the stairs humming to her the entire way to her room.
He laid her down and said, "goodnight baby girl, daddy loves you", he started to pull back and she grabbed his hand and said, "daddy tan you tay wif me till me goes to sweep"?, he smiled and said, "I sure can". He pulls the cover back and gets on the bed with her and wraps his arm around her and says, "how's that"?, she kissed him on the cheek and said, "fanks daddy".
Meanwhile Savannah was laying in Dereks bed with nothing on but a smile and she laid there and laid there and laid there and still he hadn't come to bed so she got up and headed out to find her man. She walked down the hall and put her hands on her hips and blew out a breath when she saw both father and child peacefully sleeping on her small bed.
She stormed back to Dereks room and changed back into her clothes and headed down the stairs, she put on her coat and grabbed her bag and slammed the door on her way out. Derek couldn't help but smile when he heard the door slam, he then kissed his daughter on the cheek and snuggled back down again and fell to sleep.
