One Starry Night-Ch 14

Derek kissed the top of his baby girls head and said, "baby I can tell that something's wrong, wanna talk about it"?, she looked up at him and said, "I guess this stuff with Jorge is bringing everything back that's all my love". He intertwined fingers with her and said, "maybe you would feel better if you talked about it".

She said, "I don't want the kids to know anything about this", he said, "we could get up and go to the back of the jet if that would make you feel any better about talking". She nodded her head yes and they stood up and headed to the back of the jet, Fran sighed and said, "bless her heart she has been through so much".

Dave kissed her temple and said, "but with Derek and the rest of us by her side she'll be okay", Fran nodded her head and said, "I hope so", Dave said, "she will Bella, she will" as their attention then went back to the people in the room. When they walked into the bedroom Derek shut the door and then turned to face a very scared and nervous Penelope Garcia.

He said, "you don't have to tell me anything if you don't want to", she walked over and sat down on the bed and said, "I need to tell you, you need to know what happened". Derek walked over and sat down beside her and took her hand in his, she then took a deep breath and turned to face him, he sat watching her for a few seconds as she readied to speak.

Penelope said, "things were going good or so we all thought", she got up and walked across the floor and said, "I was getting deeper and deeper into the organization, doing more and more". She blew out a deep breath and said, "and then one day Jose wanted to have dinner with me, I tried to get out of it, tried several different things and I was afraid that he was becoming suspicious so I finally agreed".

We got into his limo and that's when things started to go bad, that's when he turned against me", Derek sat there listening to her as she said, "his hand slid up my thigh and he said, "you look so beautiful tonight and was on top of me". Penelope felt her heart racing as she relived the incident, she looked at Derek and said, "I didn't know what to do or say so I finally said, "thank you Jose".

She said, "I I I tried to push his hand away but he was to strong and before I knew it he pushed me down on the seat and was ripping my panties off", Derek stood up and started walking closer to her. Penelope said, "I was fighting him, I was trying to push him off but he was to strong", Derek said, "baby it wasn't your fault, you were trying to protect yourself, you didn't do anything wrong".

Penelope said, "he was forcing my legs apart and that's when I found the gun, we started wrestling over the gun and somehow, don't ask me how I was able to knock the gun out of his hand and pick it up". Derek said, "what happened next baby"?, she said, "it, it, it went off and the car stopped moving and I was trying to move out from under him but I couldn't".

Derek said, "why couldn't you"?, she said, "he was holding on to me but out of nowhere the door flew open and the agents they were there and they pulled him off of me and helped me get out of the car. She looked into Dereks eyes and said, "how did he know so fast"?, Derek said, "he knew who you were from day one".

Penelope said, "so he always knew who I was and why I was there"?, Derek nodded his head and said, "yes he did sweetness", Penelope said, "so from the start he'd planned on raping and killing me"?, Derek pulled her into his arms and said, "you're here with us and safe now". Penelope said, "but that's just it we're not safe, we're not safe at all and it's my fault".

Derek said, "none of this is your fault", she opened her mouth to argue when somebody knocked on the door, Derek said, "yes", the door opened and Reid said, "I hate to interrupt but the pilot said that it's almost time to land". Derek said, "thanks pretty boy", Reid said, "any time" and then he stepped back out into the hall and closed the door.

Derek held out his hand and she slid hers into his happily, he then said, "no matter what we have to do we will keep you and Charlotte safe", Penelope weakly smiled as walked out of the room and back to the other end of the jet to rejoin the others.
