Bachelor Party-Ch 29
When Derek and Reid got back to the hospital he jumped out of the car and ran inside but stopped when he saw everybody waiting in the hall, he went over to Fran and said, "what's happening"?, she said, "we don't know honey, they keep going in and out of here but so far nobody has told us what's happening with Penelope".
He ran his hand over his head and said, "why don't they tell us anything"?, she put her hand on his shoulder and said, "they will tell us something when they can". He leaned up against the wall and stood there until her doctor came out a few minutes later, she walked over to them and said, "she's awake".
Derek smiled and said, "how is she"?, the doctor took a deep breath and said, "she's stable and her vitals are improving", Derek said, "and the baby,
how is the baby"?, she smiled and said, "the baby seems to be out of danger". He hugged his mom and said, "did you hear that momma"?, she sighed and said, "I heard honey, I heard".
Derek looked at the doctor and said, "when can we see her"?, she said, "well you can see her now, she's asking for you", he smiled as he practically ran into the room. Payton said, "how is she really"?, the doctor said, "well she has been through a major trauma but she is slowly recovering and with a little time I don't see why she can't make a full recovery", everybody smiled.
Derek walked over to the bed and smiled when he saw the ventillator tubing was gone, he leaned down and kissed her gently on the lips and said, "you really scared me, I thought that I had lost you". She smiled up at him and hoarsly said, "you aren't getting rid of me that easily Derek Morgan", he laughed and said, "I'm going to hold you to that".
He put his hand on her stomach and said, "the doctor just told us that the baby is out of danger", she put her hand on top of Dereks and said, "she's a strong little girl my love". He smiled and said, "she"?, Penelope grinned and said, "I have a feeling that this little one is a girl", he leaned down and kissed her gently on the stomach and said, "I love you so much baby girl".
She said, "and I love you", he opened his mouth to speak but his cell ringing interrupted, he pulled it off his belt and saw "Savannah" flashing and rolled his eyes and said, "not now". Penelope said, "what's wrong", he said, "it's Savannah", he hit ignore and said, "I don't want to deal with her right now".
Penelope smiled and said, "I've missed you so much", he grinned at her and said, "I've missed you but maybe you should rest and not talk so much for a little while". She nodded her head and closed her eyes, he sighed happily as he stood up and walked out into the hall, Fran smiled and said, "how is she honey"?, he said, "she's doing good, she's weak and tired and hoarse from the ventillator but she's doing great".
Payton said, "is she still awake", he shook his head and said, "no she's asleep but you all can go in and sit with her", Payton and her other brothers smiled at Derek as they walked inside to see their sister. JJ looked at Derek and said, "what's wrong"?, he said, "it's Savannah, she called me when I was in with baby girl".
Dave said, "what did she want"?, he shrugged and said, "I don't know I didn't answer it", Emily smiled and said, "you better call her back while PG is asleep or she will just keep calling you". He nodded his head and said, "yeah your right", he pulled his cell off his belt and headed to the end of the hall as he dialed her number.
After a few rings he heard, "hey my love", he said, "is something wrong"?, she said, "yes, you're not here with me and our baby", he said, "I'm at the hospital". She said, "are you alright"?, he said, "I'm fine but Penelope isn't", Savannah inwardly smiled but said, "what's wrong"?, he said, "let's just say that she's had a rough time and leave it at that".
Savannah said, "what about the baby", he smiled and said, "the baby is out of danger right now", she smiled and said, "that's good news, I'm glad to hear that". Derek said, "did you need something"?, she said, "actually I did, I have a doctors appointment and today we are having our first ultrasound and I wanted you to go with me".
He said, "I really don't want to leave Penelope right now", she said, "but what about me and our baby, don't we deserve some of your time"?, he said, "of course the baby does". She said, "what hospital are you in"?, he told her and she said, "that's where my appointment is so you can run down to join me for the ultrasound".
He rolled his eyes and said, "alright, when you get to the hospital call me and if I can I will run down", she smiled and said, "I'll see you later handsome". After the call ended he sighed as he headed back to join his family, Fran said, "is everything alright"?, he said, "yeah she just has a appointment here at the hospital for her first ultrasound and she wants me to be here".
Fran said, "if you want to stay with Penelope I can go down and be there with her honey", Derek grinned and said, "would you do that momma", she hugged him and said, "of course I would, you need to be here with Penelope and the baby and Savannah will just have to understand that". He kissed her on the cheek and said, "why don't we go in and sit with baby girl", everybody grinned at him as they followed him inside the room.
