Christmas Wooing Morgan Style-Ch 19
The next morning Penelope woke up to the sounds of somebody knocking on her door, she threw her covers back and said, "alright I'm coming, I'm coming don't get your panties in a wad". She opened the door and squinted at the bright light and weakly grinned when she saw JJ and Emily standing there in front of her.
JJ said, "morning sunshine", she said, "you're home, what time did you guys get back"?, she stepped back and the girls walked through her door and straight over to the living room. JJ said, "Derek and Reid was interrogation until almost 3 I think and then by the time we landed this morning it was going on 7".
Penelope said, "and it's going on 11 and you're here, so what gives"?, Emily said, "well our boys were so excited to see us that they wouldn't let us sleep soooooo here we are". Penelope said, "wait, if you're home that means hotstuff is home but, but he didn't call me", Emily said, "he said that he was going to go home and grab a shower and grab a few hours of sleep and then take Clooney for a run and get in a workout but that he would call you a little later".
She nodded her head and said, "alright, cool" as JJ handed her a cup of coffee, she took a sip and said, "ahhhhh nectar of the Gods", JJ and Emily looked at each other and then back at Penelope and laughed. Penelope then said, "so how are my Godsons this morning"?, Emily said, "they are amazing, we had breakfast with them and now they are spending the afternoon with their fathers, Aaron and Spencer are taking the boys for a movie and then some lunch".
Penelope said, "awwww that sounds nice", JJ said, "and since we were awake we thought that we would come over and spend some time with you and see if you wanted to grab brunch with us"?, Penelope said, "sounds good, just give me a few minutes to get dressed and then we can head out", the girls smiled and nodded their heads as they watched Penelope stand up and head back through her beaded curtain to get dressed.
A few minutes later Penelope walked out of her bedroom dressed and ready, she walked over and grabbed her purse and said, "alright ladies let's get this party started" and as JJ and Emily stood up somebody knocked on the door. Penelope said, "I wonder who that is"?, she opened the door to see a delivery man standing there, he said, "I'm looking for a Penelope Garcia".
Penelope said, "that's me", he said, "I have a delivery for you mam, I just need you to sign here please", she said, "sure" and signed her name and smiled as he handed her the box. She stepped back inside and said, "hmmmm, I guess my admirer aka hotstuff is sending his gift early today girlies" as she put the box down on the table.
JJ said, "open it Garcie, open it", Emily said, "yeah we want to see what he sent ya", she removed the ribbon and removed the lid and said, "awww they are beautiful" as she picked one of them up and smelled it". JJ said, "ohhhhh those are beautiful", Emily said, "what does the card say PG"?, Penelope said, "let's see girlies, let's see" as she picked up the card.
She felt her heart racing as she read, "ON THE TWELFTH DAY OF CHRISTMAS MY TRUE LOVE GAVE TO ME A DOZEN LONG STEM RED ROSES FOR THE LOVE OF MY LIFE AND THE SOLE OWNER OF MY HEART, LOVE YOUR SECRET ADMIRER". Emily said, "awwwwww that's so sweet, he really loves you PG", Penelope said, "and I love him Em, I always have" as she looked down in the box and said, "ohhhh there is another card down there girlies".
She picked it up and said, "BE DRESSED AND READY YOUR RIDE WILL BE ARRIVING AT 6:00, SEE YA SOON, LOVE YOUR SECRET ADMIRER", JJ said, "6:00, well it's almost 12 now so let's go to brunch and then go shopping for a dress". Penelope said, "I have the stockings, shoes, bracelets and lipstick already so let's get this show on the road girlies", JJ and Emily nodded their heads yes in agreement as they walked out the door and headed up the hall toward the elevator.
A few minutes later they were enjoying a delicious brunch and Emily looked over at her and said, "are you disappointed that Morgan was your admirer"?, she said, "not for a second Em, not for a second". JJ said, "soooooo what color dress were you thinking Garcie"?, Penelope said, "either black or red but I'm leaning toward black Jayje" as she took another sip of her juice.
It wasn't long before they were walking through the door of Patricias Dress Shop and heading down the aisles looking for not only a dress but for the perfect dress for her date tonight, so the girls split up and each hit a separate aisle as they continued to look for Penelopes dress. Penelope looked at dress after dress and none of them seemed right that was until the very last dress she found.
She held it up and said, "what do you think girlies"?, JJ said, "try it on Garcie, try it on", Penelope giggled and took it back to the dressing room and when she walked out a few minutes later Emily and JJ said, "wowwwwwwww" in unison". Penelope said, "do you think he'll like it"?, Emily said, "he won't be able to keep his hands or eyes off of you tonight PG, you look amazing in that dress".
As she twirled around in the black spaghetti strap dress she felt beautiful, she said, "this is it girlies, this is the perfect dress for tonight", Emily said, "well let's get it and get home, it's not long before somebody is suppose to pick you up". She sighed happily and walked back into the dressing room to change back into her other dress for the trip back to her apartment.
Once they got back the girls set out to help her get dressed for her date with the love of her life and true to the words on the card at 6:00 on the dot their was a knock on her front door. She blew out a deep breath and said, "well girlies here goes everything" as she walked over to the door, she opened the door and saw Spencer standing there in a chauffeurs uniform, she grinned as he held out his arm and said, "your carriage awaits malady" as he handed her another perfect red rose.
Penelope looped her arm through his and said, "thank you Spencer", he winked at her and said, "anything for you malady" as they started downstairs and as they got closer to the car she smiled and said, "ohhhhhh this car is beautiful". Reid said, "it's one of Daves, he said that and I quote nothing is too good for kitten", Penelope stopped and stood there as Reid opened the door.
She climbed in and watched as Reid walked around and climbed in behind the wheel of the car, he looked over his shoulder at her and said, "and we're off", she blew out a deep breath wondering just what else this night had in store for her.
