Dead Man Walking-Ch 13
Fran walked back into the kitchen to rejoin Sarah and Desiree and Sarah said, "is she going to be alright momma"?, Fran nodded her head and said, "she'll be fine just as soon as they catch Kevin and his friends". Meanwhile upstairs Derek knocked on the bedroom door and after a few seconds he heard her say, "come in".
He opened the door and his heart broke, she was laying there on her side facing away from the door in the fetal position, he crawled on the bed and wrapped his arms around her. She said, "Derek I can't ask you to do this, please just let me call Kevin and I'll" and Derek said, "NO BABY GIRL, NO", she said, "but", he said, "their are no buts, you are the love of my life and I'm not going to let Lynch or his friends get their hands on you".
She relaxed in his arms and said, "Derek I'm scared", he hugged her tight and said, "me to baby girl, I can't lose you, not now that we're finally together, if anything were to happen to you I don't know what I would do". She rolled over so that she was facing him and she said, "I love you Derek, I love you so so much".
He caressed her cheek and said, "and I love you baby girl", she leaned in and gently kissed his lips, as they pulled apart she said, "Derek will you make" and before she could finish her sentence he had rolled her over onto her back and started kissing his way from her lips to the curve of her neck with gentle kisses, nips and bites.
She bit down on her bottom lip and whispered, "oh yes Derek" as she felt him gently bit down, she knew that she was going to have the biggest hickey on her neck but right now she didn't care, right now the only two things she needed right now were Derek and to feel safe again and everything else could wait.
Downstairs the rest of the team were sitting in the living room going over the plan now that they had made it to Chicago safe and sound, Reid looked out the window and said, "so far so good, I don't see any sign of Lynch anywhere". JJ said, "maybe we pulled it off, maybe he has no idea where we are".
Reid said, "I have no doubts that we got away safe for now but Kevin will do searches and scan survelience footage and sooner or later he'll find us again and when he does we need to be ready". Dave nodded his head and said, "and we will and Kevin Lynch and his group of cowards won't know what hit them".
Derek collapsed beside Penelope on the bed and pulled her into his arms, she laid her head down on his chest and he ran his hand up and down her back and said, "how are you feeling now"?, she looked up at him and smiled and said, "safe, wanted and loved, oh so so loved hotstuff". he kissed her lips gently and said, "I love you so much baby girl I always have and I always always will".
About 30 minutes later Dereks attention turned to the door when somebody knocked, he whispered, "come in", the door opened to reveal his baby sister Desiree. She smiled and said, "she okay"?, Derek nodded his head and said, "she will be", Desi said, "ma wanted me to tell you that dinner is ready", Derek said, "we'll be right down", Desiree smiled and backed out into the hallway making sure to close the door behind her.
Derek kissed Penelope gently on the lips and said, "time to wake up beautiful", she said, "don't wanna", he laughed and said, "momma has dinner ready gorgeous, its time to get up and go downstairs for a while". She opened her eyes and said, "do we really have to"?, Derek said, "I can go get you something to eat and bring it to you if you don't want to go down".
She thought for a minute and said, "it's okay I'll go downstairs and join the others for dinner", Derek kissed her lips and said, "and then later tonight I'll take great pleasure in showing you again and again how much you mean to me". She caressed his cheek and said, "I like the sound of that", he winked at her and said, "I know how to keep my lady happy", Penelope sighed and said, "ohhhh that you do my love, that you do" as they got up and quickly got dressed and headed downstairs to join the others.
