Xoxo -Ash :)
It had been at least a month since Rossi's heart attack. Penelope still felt scared to the bone about how close she was to losing him. She was glad the team knew how close the pair had become. Today was Sunday and he still was not authorized to go on case with the team, so they went to the café that they normally went to breakfast at. She was sitting at the back booth were they normally sat when she saw him walk in. He walked over to her and said
"Hey there, Angel, how are you feeling today?
She smiled before responding, "Oh, my favorite Italian, I'm doing well today, I get to have breakfast with my father and I know he's getting better."
Rossi bent down and kissed her forehead before he took a seat across the booth from her. He sat down and began chit chatting, they, eventually, after 20 minutes, ordered their breakfast, Rossi ordered his normal breakfast which was a big mean of corned beef hash, scrambled eggs and some toast. He watched Penelope order a strange breakfast of a 3 egg omlette, bacon, a side of grapefruit and a glass of hot chocolate. He wasn't going to say anything but he felt something was up, Penelope wasn't a huge fan of eggs or grapefruit. They had been going to this diner for quite a while and never once did she order that much food or quite an awkward combination. They spent the entire time waiting for the meal talking about the past few weeks.
"Penelope, how have things with Derek going? He's treating you right, I assume. I am not against kicking his ass if he's being an ass", He said in a protective manner.
Pen just laughed and said "Now, now, calm down. Derek and I are doing just fine. He's a sweetheart and takes better care of me than Kevin did."
"I am just making sure, Princess, I want… you to always be taken care of. " Rossi paused to be cut off by Pen.
"Rossi…. I think I'm pregnant"
He just watched her as she realized… he already suspected something along that line. She gave him a goofy smile before saying
"Oh my God, you think so too. I missed my period, I know this isn't typical meal conversation but I am nervous. I'm freaking out. "
"Angel, I know you too well, I suspected something but I didn't say anything"
Penelope's expression turned serious when she asked "Do you think Derek will be happy? "
"Sweetheart, He is going to be so happy. Before you get depressed, give our boy a chance to state his opinion first. " He said and watched her as she smiled. He quickly stood up as he excused himself to the bathroom.
Penelope just sat there and contemplated how she was going to tell Derek he was a father. She then began ranting in her head about she wasn't even sure if she was, she needed to get a test. She was so lost in thought she didn't even see the guy and his girlfriend start to slowly stand up out of their seats. The hairs on the back her neck usually went up when people acted strange. She didn't even notice the couple until she heard. "EVERYONE HANDS UP, THIS IS A ROBBERY!" She was snapped back to reality by the couple face her when her cell phone went off, at the most inconvienent moment
pretty little lady with the pretty pink thong
every sugar daddy hit'n on her all night long
doesn't care about the money she could be with anybody
ain't it funny how the honey wanted you all along
(you naughty thing)
you're rip'n up the dance floor honey
(you naughty women)
you shake your ass around for everyone
(you're such a mover)
I love the way you dance with anybody
(the way you swing)
and tease them all by sucking on your thumb
you're so much cooler when you never pull it out
'cause you look so much cuter with something in your mouth...
She watched the man walk over to her and put the gun he had right in her face and growled while pointing to the corner
" Shut that up before I put the barrel of this gun in your mouth and get over there."
She silenced her phone and went into the corner with the rest of the scared customers. She just sat there watching the couple take the wallets of every customer around the diner. She was confused on where Rossi went until she looked over towards the bathroom and noticed there he was, with his cellphone next to his face and his gun up and ready to shot. Apparently she wasn't the only one to see him, she saw the man with a gun turn to Rossi and began yelling at him.
"Old man, you will regret this, put the gun away. PUT THE GUN AWAY!"
Rossi just looked at him determined, "No, Put the gun down, I think we can come to a compromise if you just don't hurt anyone in here."
The man of the couple went over to the corner and grabbed Penelope and put the gun to her temple.
"Put the gun down, or I will keep your daughter"
Rossi looked panicked "You don't want to do that, son, please put the gun down"
Penelope had closed her eyes and it wasn't until gunshots rang through the tiny diner did she finally open them.
