Mrs. David Rossi-Ch 10
Fran slowly walked to his bedside, the once strong man now laid hurt and broken, she took a deep breath as she took his hand in hers, she said, "Dave it's me and I need you to do me a favor". Penelope sighed as she looked down at her unconscious friend as Fran said, "I need you to wake up for me, I need to see those beautiful eyes of yours and to feel your arms around me".
Reid slowly turned and headed out of the room to give Fran and Penelope some time alone with Dave, when he stepped into the hall he said, "please wake up my friend there are so many people here that love and need you" before he headed back up to Dereks room to join the others. Penelope leaned down and kissed Dave on the forehead and said, "you have to be alright papa bear, you just have to be, I can't lose another father, my heart just won't take it".
Fran listened as Penelope said, "I'm going to go back to check on hotstuff but I'm leaving you in the very capable hands of one of the most amazing women I have ever met in my life". Penelope winked at Fran and said, "if you need anything or anything changes please let me know", Fran nodded her head and said, "don't worry honey I will" and she then watched as Penelope disappeared into the hall.
When Penelope walked into Dereks room the rest of the team stepped out into the hall to give Penelope some time alone with Derek, before JJ walked out she put her hand on Penelopes shoulder and said, "he loves you Garcie, just be strong and give him a reason to come back". Penelope hugged her friend and said, "I can't lose him Jayje, I just can't".
JJ said, "don't worry he isn't going to go anywhere, he's going to fight hard to come back to you, just don't give up hope", Penelope said, "don't worry I won't Jayje,
I won't". JJ took another look at her friend who had been like her brother and sent up a silent prayer that he was going to be alright and that he along with Dave were going to be fine and back to normal in no time".
Penelope walked over to his bedside and slid her hand in his and said, "please don't leave me hotstuff, I love you and not in a friendship kind of way, I Penelope Marie Garcia am head over heels in love with you Derek Michael Morgan". She slid herself down in the chair beside his bed and said, "please wake up, please open those gorgeous eyes and let me know that you are alirght".
Fran looked up at Dave and said, "I have to confess something Dave", she gently squeezed his hand and said, "I haven't felt this way since my James died, everytime I see you or hear your voice my heart races". She took a deep breath and said, "I know that we haven't known each other long but I" and she gasped in surprise when she felt Daves hand squeezing hers.
She looked down and saw his eyes trying to open, she quickly hit the button for the nurse and a few seconds later several nurses ran into the room, the sound of the shoes in the hall got the attention of Reid who got up from his seat and walked down the hall. Fran stepped out into the hall and Reid said, "what's happening, is he alright"?, Fran wiped her eyes and then threw her arms around him and said, "he's waking up Spencer, Dave's waking up".
Penelope looked up when someone walked into the room, she sighed happily as JJ whispered, "Dave's awake and being checked out right now", she said, "that's great news Jayje". JJ rested her chin on Penelopes shoulder and said, "don't worry Morgans gonna wake up, he loves you, just keep talking to him Garcie, just keep talking", she laughed and said, "don't worry Jayje I'm telling him everything now and when he wakes up I'll tell him again".
JJ said, "I'll be outside with the others and when we get the all clear we'll be in with Dave", she nodded her head and said, "tell him I love him", JJ nodded her head and said, "I will" before she walked out to join the others. Penelope said, "did you hear that handsome Dave's awake now it's your turn, you need to wake up and talk to me, please don't leave me".
The doctor walked out of the room and said, "you can go in now", Hotch said, "how is he doctor"?, he smiled and said, "his vitals are all good, he's in some pain with his leg and from the airbag hitting his chest but he'll be as good as new in a few weeks". Fran led the team into the room and when Dave saw her face he smiled and held out his hand.
She walked over and put her hand in his and said, "hello beautiful", she smiled and said, "you scared me Dave", he gently squeezed her hand and said, "I'm sorry Bella,
I didn't mean to scare you". The rest of the team walked closer and Hotch said, "welcome back old man", Dave laughed and said, "and right now I'm feeling each of those years".
Penelope brought Dereks hand up to her lips and kissed it and said, "when you get better I want, well I want us to see where we could go, I've been in love with you for years hotstuff but I never thought I was good enough for you". She laid her head down on his chest and closed her eyes, a few minutes later she looked up when she heard Dereks voice saying, "I love you to baby girl".
