Hotch walked into Garcia's room making sure not to meet anyone's eyes but hers. He was staring her down trying to convey what he knew. She must have understood because she took a sharp intake of breath.
"Aaron, is everything alright?" Rossi asked.
Hotch turned his glare to the man forcing Rossi to put his hands up in surrender.
The room was quiet; no one wanted to speak with the way Hotch was acting. "Garcia, the detective will be in shortly."
John made the first move. "How are you feeling baby are you still in a lot of pain?" Penelope couldn't keep her eyes off of Hotch. It felt like he was staring into her soul. She took a deep breath and finally looked at John. "The meds are finally kicking in."
"I'm glad, Baby." He kissed her cheek.
The room continued to have ideal chatter until Detective Roberts walked in.
Hotch seeing him addressed the group. "I need everyone to leave."
Everyone but John got up and made their way out of the door. "John, I'm sorry but you need to go as well."
"Why?" John said with a cocked eyebrow.
"She needs to make her official statement. Everyone but the detective and myself have to leave the room." He said in a stern voice.
Penelope looked at John with a sad smile. "It's okay baby. I'll have Hotch get you as soon as we're done okay?"
John nodded and kissed her forehead avoided her bandage.
"Alright Ms. Garcia, this won't take long. I just have a few questions for you." Detective Roberts said.
Garcia looked at Hotch. "I already know everything, Garcia." She nodded her head in shame.
"Alright Detective."
"Ms. Garcia, I've already gotten your statement about the beaten, this is just going to be about the rape kit. "
She nodded her understanding. "Ms. Garcia, were you forced into any sort of sexual act?"
"No, everything was consensual."
"Would you be willing to sign an official statement saying that?"
She looked a little annoyed "I already said I was a willing participant of course I will sign."
Hotch looked at her. "Garcia he's doing is job."
"Fine" She bit out "Give me the damn paper."
He handed her the paper. "Can we be done with this now?"
"Yes, I will let you know if I need anything else." The detective left the room shaking his head.
Hotch turned to look at Garcia.
"Hotch, please don't be angry."
"Garcia, I'm not angry, I was just taken off guard. The second you heard they took a sample to be sent off you should have said something to me. I don't like being blindsided."
He was going to say more but John walked back in. "I saw the detective leave. You okay baby?" he walked over to her side.
"I'm fine." She said still looking at Hotch.
The rest of the team walked back into her room following John. When Morgan walked in about ten minutes later Garcia's eyes immediately darted to him, trying to gauge what was going on.
Morgan couldn't take his eyes off or her, it didn't go unnoticed John was holding her hand; Morgan had to fight to control his urge to break his fingers. He took a deep breath walking over to her side. "Hey Baby Girl, did they bring you the pain meds yet?"
She nodded at him still afraid to talk. Hotch cleared his throat. "Alright everyone, as much as I would like to stay here with Garcia we need to solve this case."
"Yeah, let's get this asshole!" Emily said with a smile. She was holding onto Toms arm obviously glad he was there.
The team left the room after giving Garcia well wishes and promises to be back soon. However, Morgan refused to leave; he didn't care what Hotch wanted there was no way he was going to leave John here alone with her.
"Morgan we need to go." Hotch said looking at his agent.
John nodded his agreement. "Yeah Morgan, thanks for being there when she woke up, but I'm here now."
"I would never leave her when she's hurt." Morgan looked at John with disdain.
"I know and I'm grateful for all you did."
There was a knock on the door and all four of them looked up. Detective Roberts was back. "Ms. Garcia, I apologize for the intrusion. I was informed the hospital has already sent the rape kit results to the nation wide database. I can have the DNA removed if you sign this. There is no need for his DNA to be pegged as a rapist if it was consensual sex."
John froze. "Consensual sex?"
Garcia panicked, she didn't know where to look. "Ms. Garcia if you can sign this form I'll be out of here." The detective could feel the tension in the room and wanted out as fast as he could. She grabbed the form signing it not looking at at anyone.
"Penelope, did you have sex with your attacker?" John asked. "If he forced you baby, that's rape." He took her hand trying to give her comfort.
"I didn't have sex with my attacker, John." she said in a quiet voice avoiding his gaze.
He let go of her hand and stepped back. "Penelope. I don't understand."
"She obviously doesn't want to talk to right now." Morgan said coming to her defense.
"What do you mean she doesn't want to talk to me? I'm her boyfriend and you don't speak for her. Penelope, are you sleeping with someone?"
She didn't say anything.
"You are sleeping with someone. Penelope No… please no." He moved closer to her on the bed.
"Wait 48 hours… That means it has to be someone on your team." He moved back.
"Leave her alone, Man." Morgan said getting John's attention.
John looked at him and then back at Penelope. "You've got to be kidding me?" He started pacing the room. "Him, Penelope? You're sleeping with Morgan?
"John I think it's best if you take a walk." Hotch said trying to defuse the situation.
"Stay out of this. This is between me and her." John bit out.
"Answer me Penelope, how long have you been fucking Morgan?"
Penelope had her head cast down. "Of all the men, Penelope. You sleep with Morgan? The man whore of the fucking FBI. He didn't even talk to you for six months. How many times did you try to invite him out with us and he wouldn't even let you speak?"
"I'm sorry." Was all she could say before John started in again.
"Really you chose Morgan? I don't get it. How did this even happen? I thought you loved me?"
"I do love you." she whispered.
"No you don't, if you did you would never have started fucking him." He pointed at Morgan.
"Back off John!" Morgan pushed his finger away.
"Shut the fuck up Morgan, this is all your fault. You couldn't see her happy could you? What she was no longer at your beck and call and you had to change that? Oh I bet all of our stories got you all hot and bothered you had to see for yourself how fantastic she fucks?"
"John back off now. I'm warning you." Morgan said threw clenched teeth.
"Enough!" both man looked at Garcia. "Everyone just leave."
"No Penelope, I'm not leaving until I get some answers. Doesn't love mean anything to you?"
"It means everything, John I swear I was going to tell you. I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."
"You're sorry? Sorry for sleeping with him or sorry that I found out?
"John, please can we not do this here?"
"No Penelope you don't get to plead with me. I moved across the country to be with you. I love you, I wanted to start a family with you."
"John." She had tears running down her face. "I never wanted to hurt you."
"Do you love him?"
Morgan froze; he needed to hear her answer. "Penelope, please just answer me."
She looked at Morgan then back at John.
"Please just answer me. Are you in love with Morgan?"
"Yes"
AN: It's finally out. Thank you for reading I will have more up soon. Other stories will be updated soon as well. Please let me know what you think. Poor John, he only ever loved her but the heart wants what the heart wants.
