The Bachelorette-Ch 53
AS the day went on Penelope, Reid and Hotch were having a great day, after breakfast they went outside to swim for a while and then they laid out in the sun and then they headed back inside to prepare their lunch. Penelope looked up and said, "this is fun, this reminds me of spending time with my brothers", Hotch grinned and said,
"this has really been a lot of fun".
Reid said, "that smells delicious", Penelope stirred the stew and said, "smelling this is starving me to death", he looked at the boys and said, "how about after it gets dark we have some smores outside at the pit"?, Reid said, "ohhhhh I haven't had smores since I was little, that sounds like so much fun". Aaron said, "smores it is then".
Derek wiped the sweat from his face as he headed toward his room to take a shower, he had been exercising for the past hour and he still couldn't shake that Sam was up to something. Sam was all smiles as he sat on the couch watching tv, he couldn't tell you what was on but he had it on and was looking at it, the only thing he could think of was getting Penelope to fall for him.
After finishing with their dinner Penelope said, "that was delicious", Hotch and Reid nodded their heads in agreement, they sat there talking for a little while before Reid looked out and said, "why don't we just sit here and tell ghost stories"?, Penelope clapped her hands and said, "ohhhh I love that idea", Aaron said, "well Spencer since you thought of it why don't you tell the first story".
After his shower Derek dried off and put some shorts and a t shirt on and headed into the theatre to watch a movie, he looked through them and finally found one of his favorite and smiled as he put it in the DVR and sat down. He picked up the remote and pushed play and as the opening credits started rolling up the screen he was all smiles.
Sam was staring at the tv when his cell started ringing, he looked around to make sure that nobody was there and he said, "you can't call me here", the voice on the other end said, "you had better come through on this". He said, "calm down and don't worry, everything is under control", the voice on the other end said, "it had better be" and ended the call", Sam blew out a deep breath and said to himself, "now all I have to do is make Penelope fall in love with me", he then blew out a deep breath as he started staring at the tv again.
It wasn't to long before it was dark and Penelope grabbed the ingredients for smores and said, "okayyyyy let's continue the ghost stories outside while we have some smoressssss". Aaron and Reid laughed as they followed her outside to the pit, they all pulled their chairs up and they watched as Penelope put the marshmallows on the sticks and then handed them one before putting hers over the fire.
As they fixed their smores she continued on with her ghost story, Reid and Hotch watched her attentively as she made the cutest facial expressions, when she finished her story Reid said, "that wasn't a true story was it"?, she giggled and said, "no Spencer it was just a story". Aaron grinned and said, "sooooooo what do you want to do now"?, Penelope said, "what do you guys want to do"?, Reid said, "I'm drawing a blank, the last time I went camping having smores and telling stories was the last things we did before going to bed".
Aaron looked at his watch and said, "well it's almost 11 so we can head inside and get ready for bed if you want"?, he said, "yeah that sounds good, I mean we can still talk to each other, right". Aaron laughed and said, "right", Reid said, "of course", they stood up and cleaned up their messes before getting up and going inside and washing their hands to get the marshmellows off of their hands.
Aaron looked at her face and said, "you have a little something right here on your face", he leaned in and instead of wiping it away he cupped her face in his hands and gently kissed her lips. She wrapped her arms around his neck and deepened the kiss by thrusting her tongue inside his mouth, their tongues battled for control for a few minutes until they heard Reid in the other room saying, "are you guys alright in there"?, Penelope pulled away and said, "yeah, we're fine".
They walked back into the living room to rejoin Spencer who was in his night clothes and sitting indian style in his tent, Penelope turned off the light and said, "I like this, I like having the only light be the fireplace". For a few minutes everybody was quiet and then she heard a light snoring coming from Aaron, she then rolled over onto her side and laid for a few minutes.
Just when she was getting ready to doze off she heard someone walking by her tent, she opened her eyes and saw Reid sneaking out of the room, she got up and quietly followed him. JJ was in the kitchen getting her a sandwich and she jumped when she felt two arms wrap around her, he turned to see Reid standing there, she said, "I I'm sorry I just came for a san" and he cupped her face in his hands and leaned in and pressed his lips against hers.
Penelope walked to the door and saw Reid and JJ kissing and when she saw JJ wrapping her arms around his waist she turned around and headed back into the living room and climbed into her tent. She laid there for a few minutes and then she felt her eyes getting heavier and heavier and before she knew it she felt herself drifting off to sleep.
