The Unthinkable-Ch 21

Penelope woke up the next morning wrapped in the arms of Derek Morgan, she looked up at his face and smiled, she felt so safe, so wanted and yes, loved. All of the mornings she had woken up with Kyle she never felt that way and now she knew why, it was because she wasn't suppose to, she was meant to be right here she was, in Dereks arms.

As she snuggled into him she laid there thinking, wondering, wondering if she could believe her feelings, her mind wasn't as foggy as it was before and she was getting bits and pieces of memories. Wonderful memories of her with her family some and especially her hotstuff, she sighed happily as her finger traced his handsome face, she was a lucky woman indeed to have him and the others in her life.

Dereks eyes opened and he instantly smiled and said, "morning beautiful", she grinned and said, "I'll show you a good morning hotstuff", he said, "what did you just say"?, she said, "I'll show you a good morning hotstuff". Derek said, "are you remembering"?, she nodded her head and said, "some things, I can remember some things but others are still foggy".

He said, "don't worry that fog will leave and you will be your old self in no time", she sighed and said, "I hope so angel fish because for the past several months I haven't been me". Derek caressed her cheek and said, "when they told me that you were dead, it was like a part of me died to", she looked at him and said, "Derek I", he put his finger over her lips and said, "please just listen to me".

She nodded her head and listened as he said, "I've been in love with you for so long and when I thought I was never going to get to see you again, not tell you how I really feel about yo didn't know how I was going to make it without you". Penelope smiled lovingly at him and said, "I don't remember everything yet but I know what I feel here" as she put her hand over her heart.

Penelope said, "you are an amazing man and I have been in love with you since the day I met you and now that I'm back where I belong, nothing or nobody is gonna keep me from you and the life we should have together". Derek smiled and said, "those words are music to my ears baby girl" as he leaned in and gently pressed his lips against hers in a passionate kiss.

When they pulled apart Derek said, "you are the light of my life sweet lady", she grinned and said, "and you are my world angel fish" as she leaned in and claimed his lips with his in a fiery kiss. Hands were roaming all over each others bodies as their kisses deepened and just as his fingers were finding the waistband of her panties everything stopped when the doorbell started ringing.

Derek said, "maybe if we're quiet they'll go away", she winked at him and said "trust me I'm not going to be quiet", he said, "woman you are killing me here" as he kissed her lips gently. They pulled apart when the door bell started ringing again and he said, "that's probably your brothers", Penelope grinned and said, "or the rest of our family".

Derek said, "get dressed and I'll go keep whoever it is company until you get there", she touched his face and said, "I love you Derek Michael Morgan", he said, "and I love you Penelope Grace Garcia". She jumped up and walked over to the closet and grabbed some clothes and headed to the bathroom to get dressed for the day.

He quickly threw on his clothes and headed downstairs, he opened the door and saw the smiling faces of their family, all of the standing there, Derek said, "come in everybody" as he stepped aside. JJ said, "where's Garcie"?, Derek said, "she's getting dressed, she'll be right down", everybody nodded their heads as they walked into the living room.

Derek said, "I have some great news", everybody listened as he said, "she's getting her memories back", the room filled with the sound of hands clapping at the good news. Penelope started down the stairs and was met half way by her brothers, she smiled and giggled as she hugged them all, Carlos smiled at his sister and said, "is it true, do you remember us"?, she nodded her head and said, "I do, I do".

The room was filled with laughter as after they stepped off of the stairs her brothers one at a time picked her up and whirled her around, Derek smiled and winked at her as their family enveloped her in a family hug.
