Class Act-Ch 34

Over the next few months things were quiet on the Robert front and that worried everybody, especially Penelope and Derek, she was currently almost 6 months pregnant and scared to death. She was scared that something was going to happen and she would lose the babies and that was something she couldn't stand or be able to live through.

Derek was working part time so he could be close to Penelope, Hotch got it cleared because of everything they were going through with Robert, Penelope was sitting and looking at things for the nursery when her husband walks into the room. He hands her some tea and says, "here you go sweetness", she took the tea and took a sip and said, "ohhhh yummy, thanks sugar".

He grinned and said, "anything for you goddess", he sat down beside her and pulled her swollen feet into his lap and took her shoes off and started rubbing her tired feet. She closed her eyes and said, "ohhhhh that feels so good", he winked at her and said, "I am to please", she said, "ohhh and you are hotstuff, you sooooooooooooooooo areeeeeee" as she laid her head back against the back of the couch.

Derek said, "now you remember what the doctor said at our "last appointment don't you"?, she said, "yesssssss, cut down on the stress", he said, "right and how is that going"?, she said, "so far so good today". He said, "good, good", he took a deep breath and said, "what are you looking at there"?, she said, "just looking at stuff for the nursery, we're getting closer and closer to the delivery date of our twins".

He smiled and said, "yes, yes it is", she said, "I still can't believe that "we're having not 1 but 2 babies", she sighed and said, "so you know what that means twice the crying, twice the sleepless nights, twice the dirty diapers". Derek said, "but it's also twice the hugs, twice the kisses and twice the I love yous", she said, "awwww it is isn't it" as a huge smile covered her face.

Meanwhile in an interrogation room Robert smiles as his attorney walks into the room and sits down across from him, Robert says, "do you have it ready"?, he nods his head and said, "I do but are you sure about this"?, he said, "I'm positive, she's taken to much from me already and it's time for it to stop". His attorney nodded his head yes and said, "it will be delivered today".

Robert smiled and said, "and when she gets them her life is going to be turned upside down", his attorney leaned forward and said, "and that's what you want"?, Robert happily said, "yes, yes that's what I want". He listened as his attorney said, "I thought you loved her", he said, "I did, do but she's moved on, she's married and having the life with another man that she should be having with me".

The attorney opened his mouth to argue and Robert said, "do your job, do what you're being paid for", he nodded his head and said, "alright, alright, I'll go straight from here and make sure they get delivered". Robert said, "thank you" as he watched his attorney stand up and grab his briefcase and head out into the hall, closing the door behind him leaving a smiling customer behind.

About 45 minutes later Derek was in the kitchen fixing lunch for him and Penelope and she was walking back to the couch when somebody knocked on the door, she said, "I'll get it" and walked across the room. When she answered the door she said, "may I help you"?, the man said, "I'm looking for Penelope Grace Garcia Morgan".

Penelope said, "that's me", he handed her an envelope and said, "you've been served" and turned around and walked away, she said, "wait, served what, hey wait" but he was already climbing into his car. She closed the door and turned around to see Derek coming from the kitchen he said, "who was that"?, she said, "somebody that served me with papers" as she ripped them open.

Derek said, "what is it sweetness"?, her free hand went to her stomach and she looked up at him and said, "it's from Robert", Derek said, "what does he want baby girl"?, she looked up at him and said, "h h he's suing me". Derek grabbed the papers and said, "he's what"?, tears streamed down her face as she said, "he's suing me for custody of the babies, how did he know I was having twins Derek, how".

Derek pulled her into his arms and held her tight as she completely broke down
