Object Of My Affection-Ch 6
About 30 minutes later they were in the middle of searching the next warehouse when Hotchs cell started ringing, he pulled it off his belt and said,
"Hotchner". The voice on the other end said, "we found the van but it was abandoned when we got to it", Hotch said, "any signs of Morgan or Garcia in that van"?, the voice said, "no sir, I'm sorry".
Emily walked over to Hotch and her heart broke when he shook his head no that they weren't in the van, after thanking the agent on the phone the call ended and he put his cell back on his belt. Emily said, "we will find them Aaron, we can't give up hope", he nodded his head and said, "you're right Em" as they finished searching the warehouse.
Penelope was trying to focus on Derek but right now the only thing she could think about was the water that was now in the center of her chest and still quickly rising. Derek said, "just try to stay as calm as you can, it will help you conserve air baby", she nodded her head yes as she tried very hard to slow her breathing down and stay calm.
Derek said, "do you want a big wedding"?, she shook her head no and said, "as l l long as the fa family is there wit with us th that's all I ne need hot hotstuff". He smiled and said, "I agree baby girl, I agree completely", he said, "I was thinking that we could go somewhere hot for our honeymoon,
what do you think about that"?, she said, "h h hot is go goood".
All Derek could do was watch as the water kept raising higher and higher on his baby girl all the while praying that the team would find them before it was to late. Penelope was now holding on to the bottom of the hatch and listening to Derek telling her how much he loved her and for her to hang on for just a little while longer.
The longer Penelope was staying in the cold water the more she was cramping up and right now she couldn't feel anypart of her body below the water, all she wanted to do was let go and sink into the water but everytime she wanted to give up Derek would call her name and give her another reason to hang on.
Derek watched as she slipped under the water, he quickly said, "PENELOPEEEEEEEEEE NOOOOOOOO", she reached her hand up above the water and grasped on one final time. As she surfaced she coughed and he said, "hang on baby, please hang on", Derek looked at the door when he heard Sam clapping his hands and saying, "hang on baby, please hang on".
Derek said, "you've done enough, please get her out of there, please", he walked over to the tank and said, "Penelope I will give you one more offer and then no more". He stood in front of her and said, "I will turn the water off and get you out of there if and only if you agree to marry me and to spend the rest of your life with me".
Penelope looked at Derek and then at Sam and said, "n n never, I'd r r rather die", he looked at Derek and held up his hands and said, "that was my final offer Derek". Derek said, "you can still let her out of there, she doesn't deserve this and you know it", Sam squatted down in front of him and said, "no she doesn't deserve it but she had to cheat on me with you".
He stood up and said, "of all people that she could have cheated on me with she does it with a playboy, a playboy", Derek said, "first of all we have loved each other for years Sam, for years before you came along". Sam laughed and said, "welllll it's funny that you never acted on your feelings until she got with me".
Derek said, "secondly, you cheated on her first and had been cheating on her for months, FOR MONTHS", Sam pulled his coat closer to his chest and said,
"wellllll just between the three of us I've been cheating ever since Penelope and I got together, as a matter of fact every night after I would leave her place wellllll that is when I did leave, I would go straight over to see another woman".
Penelope was getting so tired and she felt herself getting ready to slip under the water and just as she started sinking Derek started tugging against his restraints and screamed, "PENELOPEEEEEEEEE". Sam turned and started laughing as he headed toward the door but when he threw the door open he was met with Reids gun in his face.
