Chap. 10 Wake up

Disclaimer: I don't own Criminal Minds

Penelope woke up really rested that morning and looked at her surroundings… she was in Derek's old room obviously but there were no good smell coming from outside the bedroom.

"It was just a dream…" she whispered sadly.

She knew that it couldn't happen like that. Their fight was so awful and she was ashamed she had spat these things to him and that Nicky always in the picture…

Derek came back from his morning run and found his mother in the kitchen.

"Hey mum. Good morning."

"Good morning baby." She replied kissing him on the cheek.

"Pen's still asleep?"

"Yes. What are you going to do?"

"We need to talk… it will be hard but we have to make this work mum."

"You'll do it. I'm certain of that. Well go take a shower then we'll have breakfast…"

"Yes but first I'll go check on Penelope."

"Go!" Fran said smiling.

Penelope was still in bed eyes closed when she sensed a presence. Someone stroked her cheek.

"I must be dreaming, this touch is Derek's but that's no possible." She thought.

"Baby girl wake up, it's breakfast time." He whispered.

"Derek" she shouted sitting up not believing her eyes.

"Baby girl, I'm sorry, I didn't' mean to frighten you."

"What are you doing here?"

"I should be the one asking you that question."

"Yes sorry." She replied blushing

"Baby Girl we seriously need to talk." He said staring at her belly.

"I know." She sighed.

"Well mum is waiting for us to have breakfast. You can take a shower here."

"Derek I already know your mum's house."

"Yes sorry." He said blushing.

"Pen what I've said…."

"Not now Derek please." She said

"Ok. I will take a shower and meet you downstairs afterwards."

"Ok."

When he left she got up and headed towards the bathroom. Seeing her naked body, she realised that she was in a deep denial.

"Why did I miss my first months of pregnancy?" she whispered, tears streaming down her cheeks.

She went into the shower and let the hot water wipe her dark thoughts.
