Switched-Ch 10

Several long hours later after a snack Derek walked into the bedroom and saw Penelope laying on the bed facing the window, he turned around and started to walk out and she said, "please don't go Derek". He walked over to the bed and said, "is there anything I can do to make you feel better"?, she bit down on her bottom lip and said, "can you just lay with me, I need to feel your body next to mine, I need to feel safe".

He toed off his shoes and climbed onto the bed behind her and said, "how's this"?, she reached behind her and pulled his arm around her and relaxed against his chest and said, "perfect". The imposter smiled knowing that she was getting closer and closer to getting what she truly wanted more than anything and that was Derek Morgan".

JJ looked at Emily and said, "have you noticed anything odd about Garcie"?, Emily said, "yep, she doesn't mind staying in the hospital and she doesn't want coffee first thing in the morning". Reid said, "I've noticed that she has trouble looking us in the eyes, it's like she's afraid that we are going to see something that she doesn't want us to see", they nodded their heads in agreement.

Meanwhile Meg looked at Penelope as they pulled into a gas station and said, "sorry Penelope but I gotta use the restroom", she smiled and said, "how about I get us something to drink"?, she said, "sounds good, I'll only be a minute". Before Meg headed to the bathroom she handed Penelope some money and smiled as Penelope walked over to the cooler and grabbed some drinks and headed to the counter.

She put the drinks on the table and when the clerk walked to the register she said, "Toby when did you start working here"?, he said, "I've been here about 2 weeks Penelope, how have you been"?, she said, "long story Toby, long story". He said, "did you all forget something"?, she looked at him and said, "what are you talking about"?, he said, "Derek was in here several hours ago".

She smiled and said, "he was here"?, he said, "yeah he came in to get some snacks for you and said that you were all heading up to Rossis cabin for the rest of the week". She said, "thank you Toby, thank you so much and I need you to do me a favor", he smiled at her and said, "you're welcome now what can I do for you beautiful"?, Penelope leaned in and said, "I need to make a call to my boss".

Toby handed her the phone and said, "anything for you", she winked at him and said, "thanks I owe you big time", Meg walked out and said, "is something going on"?, she said, "thanks to Toby here I know where the team is and now I need to get some help". Meg smiled as she listened to Penelope talking to Erin Strauss and filling her in on everything that happened.

A few minutes later she handed Toby back his phone and said, "you don't know how much you helped me Toby", he said, "just seeing that smile on your beautiful face is more than enough for me". Meg said, "he's a sweetie isn't he"?, she nodded her head and said, "that he is Meg, that he is", she looked at Meg and said, "the team and hotstuff are a couple of miles away and we need to hurry, I have to find out who this crazy woman is", Meg nodded her head in agreement as they headed to the door.

She stopped and turned around and said, "thanks again Toby you are a life saver", he smiled and waved and said, "anytime Penelope, anytime" as he watched her and Meg walk out the door and climb into their car. Derek woke up to the feeling of Penelopes lips on his, he said, "baby what are you doing"?, she took a deep breath and rested on her elbow.

Derek said, "you need time to heal", she said, "I need you Derek, I need to be able to feel your touch and not his", he said, "baby you need time", she then shook her head and said, "no what I need is for the love of my life to make love to me". Derek opened his mouth to tell her that she needed to wait a little longer she gently pressed her lips against his.

The imposter deepened the kiss by thrusting her tongue inside his mouth, their tongues battled for control for several minutes before he pulled back and said,
"baby girl we need to stop before I'm not able to". She caressed his cheek and said, "I don't want to stop, I want to be able to feel your touch and not his, please help me, please make love to me".

He brushed hair back out of her eyes and said, "I don't think you're ready for this", she said, "please Derek, please help me heal", Derek then rolled her gently over onto her back and pressed his lips against hers. He pulled back and said, "I love you", she said, "I love you to, you have noooooo idea how much you mean to me".

Derek pulled his shirt off and tossed it on the floor behind them as she wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him close to her, meanwhile outside Penelope and Meg were pulling up in front of the cabin. Derek slowly pulled Penelopes shirt over her head and tossed it on the floor beside his, he was speechless when he saw the bruises that were on her body.

Derek looked down at her chest and Penelope said, "what's wrong handsome, don't you like what you see"?, he said, "I do sweetness but it's what I don't see that I'm wondering about". Her mouth flew open and she said, "I I I don't know what you're talking about", he pointed to her chest and said, "where are the scars from where you got shot"?

They got out of the car and ran toward the door, Penelope raised her hand and knocked on the door and when the door flung open Reid said, "Garcia, what are you doing outside and where are your bruises"?, she threw her arms around him and said, "my heap of gray matter I love you". JJ and Hotch walked over and Hotch said, "what were you doing outside"?, JJ said, "waittttttttt if you were outside then who's with Derek"?,

Penelope said, "where's my hotstuff"?, he said, "he's upstairs with you", she ran past him and headed for the stairs and Reid said, "HE'S IN THE LAST ROOM ON THE RIGHTTTTTTT" as she disappeared at the top of the stairs. She quickly made her way toward the bedroom door and when she threw the door open Derek looked up and said, "baby girl but but but how"?, she crossed her arms and said, "do you want to tell him or should I"?
