This is my epilogue. Enjoy.

It had been nearly a month since the court date and now almost everything had settled back down. Derek had taken Pen out to Vegas for two weeks for a small 'legal' wedding. In the end, Derek had gotten hired back into the FBI because Strauss's boss overruled her decision about firing Derek. As for Pen she had been offered her job back, but she had declined. She didn't want strings pulled for her or to have to go back to illegal territory for now.

As Pen had said she did open up her small fashion boutique. It would certainly stand out to people walking by it with the brightly colored lights in the window, and the unique displays Pen came up with to put in the windows. One day when Derek had gotten off work early he walked in to find Pen working on her sewing machine in the back room.

"Hey Baby Girl." he said walking in and kissing her cheek.

"Hey Hot Stuff." she said with a smile. "Tomorrow's the big day."

"The day you open this place and everyone starts dressing like you? I can't wait." Derek said.

She laughed. "You really thought I'd sell my own signature trends? Fraid not. I've been pulling all nighters for the specific trends on the clothes I'm selling."

"Such Dedication." Derek muttered. He Didn't think she would actually buy a building, go to a class for six weeks to learn about running a business, but here she was always surprising him in the end.

"You should take a break Pen. Really."

"I'll be fine. How's the whole FBI gig going?"

"It's going. Reid is still sprouting off facts about the National Debt, Strauss is as mean and cold as ever." Derek said.

"And your still a sculpted chocolate god of perfection."

"Yes that too baby girl."

She just looked happily at him before saying:

"By the way your mom called. She said that she already got our plane tickets to see her in Chicago for Thanksgiving."

"Did she think I wasn't going to get them?"

"Oh she knew you would. But you wouldn't stay as long if you got to pick the dates. Besides there's still Christmas Plane Tickets to worry about."

"Not plane tickets." Derek said.

"Another Road Trip?" Pen asked. "Derek it could snow, or anything!"

"Relax." he said. "It's our tradition."

She looked back up at him, from what she had started to sew.

"Tradition?"

"Last Christmas we went on a Road Trip. This year we're doing it again."

"You bet Hot Stuff."

They looked at each other romantically before Derek said:

"I love you."

"I love you too Hot Stuff."

Then they shared a long romantic look that continued long into the rest of their lives together.

I'm finally finished! How about some reviews? :)
