Derek went to the airport to pick up Penelope's brothers after there flight. Derek drove them to his place to drop off there bags and get some rest. After he had dropped them off he headed back to the hospital.
Once Derek got to the hospital he went to Penelope's room before visiting hours were over.
"Hey, BabyGirl" Derek said entering the room.
"Hey handsome" Penelope said tiredly
"Your brothers arrived, I just came from dropping them off at the house." Derek said "How are you?"
"Tired" Penelope yawned
"Well, then you should get some sleep BabyGirl" Derek said
"Will you be back tomorrow?" Penelope asked knowing he had to leave for the night and might get called away on a case.
"Of course and I will be bringing your brothers with me" Derek said standing up
"Yay!" Penelope said "Do you really have to leave?"
"Yeah, but if you behave and stop pouting, I might be able to sneak in some breakfast" Derek said
"I'll try. You know how much I hate hospitals" Penelope said before closing her eyes. Derek kissed her forehead before leaving the room. He left the hospital and drove back to his place.
The next morning Derek woke up early and got dressed in workout clothes and took Clooney for a run. When he got back he went to the bathroom and took a shower before going back to the kitchen and making breakfast.
When he finished making breakfast the guys woke up and cane downstairs, summoned by the smell.
"That smells great" Manny said
"Thanks." Derek said
"What time does visiting start?" Carlos asked
"In an hour, I hope she's gotten some sleep. Last time I saw her she looked exhausted" Derek said
"She might have, but you know her. Once a hard-head always a hard-head" Ralphie said
"I remember once when we were younger, she climbed the tree in the backyard even though mom told her not and that it was dangerous. She did it anyway and made it half way up before coming back down because she was hungry" Eddie said
"Yeah, and one of the branches broke and she fell. She broke her arm and had to wear a cast. She puck out a pink one because it's Penelope." Ralphie said
"I remember her drawing on it with sharpies because and I quote it's not pretty enough." Carlos said
"Yeah, that was when life was simple and we were all happy. After that, she had more trips to the hospital but those were for different reasons entirely" Manny said
"I wish I could've done something" Eddie sighed
"We all do" Carlos said
They spent the rest of breakfast going over Penelope's more happy childhood memories. Almost two hours later Derek looked at his watch and started packing up some breakfast to bring to Penelope.
"I think we should head out now. She might be awake now and visiting hours have started" Derek said and they nodded.
They got the hospital and the Garcia brothers followed Derek to Penelope's room.
"Derek" Penelope sighed seeing him.
"Hey sweetness. Did you sleep?" Derek asked
"Mhm hmm. And I didn't cause any of the nurses trouble" Penwlope replied making the others laugh
"Well that's good. Guess what?" Derek said
"You are a sculpted god of chocolate thunder" Penelope said
"Tell me something I don't know" Derek laughed
"I have a sweet tooth" Penelope said
"Oh really?" Derek asked "Anything I can help with?"
"Give me some sugar in the form of your kisses" Penelope replied
"I think I can do that" Derek said before leaning down and capturing her lips in a heated kiss. They got so lost in each other they forget that there were other people in the room until someone cleared their throat.
"Oh, forgot you were there" Derek said with a chuckle
"We figured" Carlos said
"Sorry" Penelope said blushing but not really sorry
"No you're not" Eddie teased
"I'm not" Penelope confirmed
"How have they been treating you in here?" Manny asked
"Fine. I just want to go home" Penelope said
"Well, Ms. Garcia, I don't see why you can't leave later" A doctor said as she entered the room.
"Really?" Penelope asked
"Yes, your wrist has been healing excellently better than we expected actually but I digress. Your mental health was really what we were really worried about and we don't see you as a threat to yourself or anyone else so later after you've eaten we will get your discharge papers and you can leave." The doctor said before exiting the room.
The group looked at each other with smiles gracing their faces and Derek leant over and kissed Penelope. "I'm coming home" Penelope sighed happily. "And this time, you are going to stay home and talk to me when it gets rough." Derek said.
"I promise that I will talk to you and our family" Penelope said seriously.
