Chasing Happiness-Ch 38
Penelope looked up to see Derek, Savannah and the rest of the team walking into her room, she said, "wh what's going on"?, Derek said, "I got a call from the hospital saying that you were here and then we run into her". Penelope opened her mouth to say something and Savannah said, "I tried to tell them that I didn't do anything wrong but understandably they didn't believe me".
Derek walked over and sat down beside her and said, "are you alright sweetness, what happened"?, she said, "I'm fine", Dave said, "what did Savannah do to you, did she hurt you"?, Penelope shook her head and said, "she didn't do anything". Derek looked from Savannah to Penelope and said, "she didn't"?, she said, "no handsome it wasn't her fault".
Savannah said, "Penelope and I had a talk and I finally see that the two of you are meant to be and that's when Penelope passed out", Emily looked at Penelope and said, "is that true PG"?, Penelope said, "it is, she called 911 for me and rode with me to the hospital and made sure that I got attention immediately". Derek took a deep breath and said, "if that's the case I want to thank you Savannah".
She said, "I don't blame you for jumping to the wrong conclusions I would have to", Hotch said, "you do realize that we have to arrest you right"?, she nodded her head and said, "I know". Penelope said, "even after everything we've been through I want to talk to the police for her", everybody in unison said, "YOU WHAT"?, she said, "if she hadn't called 911 for me it's hard to tell how long I would have laid there on that couch".
JJ said, "thank you for taking such good care of Garcie", Savannah sighed and said, "as a doctor I couldnt just leave her there", Penelope looked up and said, "thank you Savannah". She grinned and said, "I never thought I'd say this but you're welcome Penelope", Derek and Penelope watched as Dave and Reid led her out of the room and into the hall.
Penelope said, "I need to tell you something" and he threw his arms around her and said, "I was so afraid when I got that call", he said, "the thoughts that were going through my mind". He ran his hands up and down her back as he said, "I love you and I can't lose you now", she said, "we're not going anywhere", he said, "we, ohhhh you and the girls".
She grinned and said, "well yeah they aren't going anywhere either but that isn't the we I'm talking about", he looked at her and said, "what are you talking about then"?, she reached and took his hand in hers and put it on her stomach. JJ and Emily started smiling knowing what she was about to say, Penelope said, "the reason that I fainted was that I'm pregnant".
His eyes got huge and he said, "p p pregnant"?, she nodded her head and said, "I know that the baby wasn't planned but" and before she could say anything else he cupped her face in his hands and claimed her lips with his. When they pulled apart he said, "a baby, we're really having a baby"?, she nodded her head and said, "we really are".
He smiled and said, "hello in there I'm your daddy and I love you soooooo much", Penelope said, "I was so surprised by the news and I couldn't wait to tell you and then bam there you are". He laughed and said, "I love it when you mumble", she said, "are you sure that you're happy about the baby"?, he gently squeezed her hand and said, "I've never been more sure of anything in my life".
The remaining team members smiled as they congratulated both Penelope and Derek on their good news, Hotch kissed her on the cheek and said, "congratulations Garcia I'm so happy for you". JJ squealed, "me to Garcie me to", Emily said, "Fran is going to freak out and so are the girls when they find out about the newest addition to the family".
Derek said, "momma is gonna be so excited that's for sure", Penelope said, "I can't believe it, we're going to have a baby", Derek leaned in and pressed his lips against hers and said, "believe it baby girl, believe it". Hotch said, "any idea when you get to go home"?, she said, "she is going to release me when this bag of IV fluids is empty".
Emily said, "we'll leave one of the SUVs out front", Derek said, "thanks guys, thanks for everything", they all smiled and waved as they headed out of the room leaving behind a very happy Derek and Penelope behind. About an hour later the doctor grinned as she unhooked the IV, she looked at Penelope and said, "you need to see an OBGYN as soon as possible so that you can get started on your prenatal vitamins".
She nodded her head and said, "I will doctor, I will", Derek said, "don't worry we'll get her scheduled as soon as we can", the doctor grinned as she handed Derek the papers and said, "if you have any problems don't hesitate to bring her back". Derek said, "I will, I promise", Penelope sighed as the wheelchair appeared at her room door.
Derek kissed her cheek and said, "I'll pull the car around", she said, "I don't need a wheelchair I can walk", the nurse said, "sorry Ms. Garcia but it's policy",
she grinned and nodded her head as she watched Derek stroll right out the door. A few minutes later after climbing into the SUV she sighed happily as they headed back toward the house and their daughters.
Penelope couldn't help but wonder how the twins were going to take the news but they would know soon enough as casa Morgan got closer and closer with each passing minute.
