Family-Ch 36

The next few days passed by and everybody started lightening up a little, they were letting their defenses down after learning that Savannah had reportedly left town thus leaving them in peace. Penelope smiled as she looked down at her sleeping husband, she leaned over and kissed his cheek and whispered, "I'll meet you at work my love".

His eyes flew open and he said, "meet me there, where are you goin"?, she said, "I need to go to the bank", he said, "give me a few minutes and I'll go with you baby girl". She said, "it's okay sugar, it will just take me a few minutes so just take your time and get dressed and I'll see you at work in a little while", he said,
"are you sure"?, she kissed his lips passionately and then said, "positive".

Derek threw the covers back and stood up, Penelope said, "handsome if you want to get out of this house without me having my way with you then I suggest that you get dressed and fast". He wiggled his eyebrows and said, "you wouldn't hear me complain sweetness, not one bit" as he pulled her into his arms and claimed her lips with his.

She reluctantly pulled away and said, "not that I don't want to spend the next ohhhhhh several years doing this but", he kissed her lips gently and said, "I know,
I know you need to go". She ran her finger up his chest and said, "sadly yes", he kissed the end of her nose and said, "please be careful", she said, "always my love, always" and then he watched as she walked out of the room and down the stairs.

He walked over to the window and watched as she climbed in behind the wheel of her car, she waved up at him and blew him a kiss as she pulled away from the curb and headed up the street. Derek laughed and said, "that woman is going to be the death of me, ohhhhhh but what a way to go" as he headed over to his closet and pulled out an outfit and headed toward the bathroom to get ready for work.

It wasn't long before Penelope was pulling up out front of the bank, she got out and closed her door and made her way inside, once she stepped through the door she saw that every line was packed and backed up to the wall. She walked over and got in one of the lines and said, "hopefully I won't be here to long, a few minutes soon turned into an hour and then she smiled as she saw herself getting closer and closer to the front of the line.

She was looking at her cell when she heard the voice of Savannah whispering, "did you miss me baby girl", she closed her eyes and said, "she can't be here, this isn't happening". Savannah giggled and said, "I knew that if you all thought I was gone that you would let your defenses down and sure enough ya did", Penelope said, "what do you want Savannah"?, she said, "seriously, are you seriously asking me that, I want Derek".

Penelope turned to face her and said, "that ain't gonna happen, Derek's my husband and the father of my unborn child so you need to back off", she put her hands on her hips and said, "we both know that you are wayyyyyy out of your league here". Penelope said, "what does that mean, out of my league, is that anything like you being off your rocker"?, Savannah said, "funny Penelope, funny".

Savannah then said, "just look at you and then look at me, what man wouldn't want this over that" as she gestured between their bodies, Penelope said, "Derek has told you over and over that he doesn't want you". Savannah grinned and said, "but he didn't mean it, we're perfect together, we were meant to be together and that baby growing inside you is suppose to be mine and Dereks not yours and Dereks".

Penelope swatted Savannahs hand away from her stomach and said, "don't you touch me", she said, "don't get so tempermental Penelope, I was just curious", Penelope said, "if you don't leave me alone I'm going to get security over here and have you escorted out". Savannah said, "I'd like to see you try", Penelope raised her hand to motion to the guard when Savannah pulled her arm back down".

The man behind Savannah said, "lady you need to leave her alone", Savannah said, "shut up and butt out, this has nothing to do with you", the man said, "I can't stand here and let you bother this nice lady". Savannah then pushed the man and said, "when I want your opinion I'll ask for it", the man said, "lady you don't know who you're messing with here".

Savannah laughed and said, "well it looks like I'm messing with another loser like her", Penelope said, "Savannah I" and then the sound of several men cocking guns filled the air along with one of them screaming, "THIS IS A HOLD UP NOBODY MOVE".
