Rescuing Of Innocence-Ch 22

About an hour later the family was sitting on the jet waiting patiently for it to start making its way down the tarmac when Tracey grabbed Penelope by the hand and said, "mommy, me fwaid". Penelope said, "baby their is nothing to be afraid of, you're safe here with mommy, daddy, your aunts and uncles and with nonno, mommy promises".

The little girl weakly smiled and Derek said, "when we get the all clear how about daddy holds you and tells you a story, would you like that"?, she nodded her head and said, "uh huh". Derek said, "alright princess, just sit back and relax and in a few minutes we'll be up in the air and then daddy can hold you", Tracey took a deep breath and said, "awight daddy".

Reid looked at the little girl and said, "watching Tracey makes me want another little one", JJ said, "well then how about we start working on making another little one"?, Reid leaned in and said, "really"?, she kissed his lips and said, "yes really Spence, I would love to have another baby, I don't want Henry to grow up an only child, I want him to have brothers and sisters".

Emily said, "we've been talking about having another baby too", Penelope said, "more kiddos for me to spoil", Dave said, "ohhhh Fran would love that, the more grandbabies she has the better she'll love it". Penelope said, "speaking of Fran does she know about Tracey"?, Dave said, "she does and she's so excited to meet her".

Derek said, "I know when I talked to her earlier she said that she couldn't wait to meet her, she was baking cookies and brownies and muffins, you all know that when my ma is excited or worried she bakes and bake she is a doin". Reid said, "is it okay if we bring Henry over to meet Tracey"?, Penelope said, "of course it is boy wonder".

Derek said, "yeah just bring him to my place, it's a lot bigger than baby girls apartment, they'll have plenty of room to play", Emily said, "and you have the Clooney factor". Tracey looked up at Derek and said, "daddy, what da cwooney factwer"?, Derek said, "Clooney is my dog and he's going to love you princess".

Tracey said, "I get a doggie"?, Derek said, "you do, you do" and Tracey giggled and said, "yayyyyyy, I get a doggie, I get a doggie" and the jet filled with laughter. Hotch said, "how about we bring Henry and Jack over tomorrow so that way the kids can get to know each other"?, Derek said, "sounds good to me, what about you baby girl"?, Penelope said, "sounds good to me angel fish".

Emily said, "how about we plan for a family barbecue"?, Reid said, "sounds good but Garcia can I ask a favor"?, she said, "sure boy wonder, what do you need"?, he said, "is their any way that you can fix your famous pasta salad"?, Penelope grinned and said, "for you no problem sweetie".

When they got the all clear from the pilot to be able to walk around the jet Derek unbuckled Tracey and picked her up and carried her to the back of the jet. He said, "alright princess, how about daddy tells you the story about when he met mommy"?, Tracey smiled and said, "yeahhhh, pwease daddy".

Derek snuggled closer to her and said, "alright now one day" and everybody got quiet and listened to the story that Derek was telling Tracey, they couldn't help but smile when they saw her closely she was listening to him. Dave smiled and leaned over to Penelope and said, "he's a good daddy isn't he kitten"?, Penelope said, "he so is papa bear, he so is" as their attention then went back to Derek, Tracey and the story about when Derek and Penelope met.

JJ looked at Penelope and said, "so I guess you're going to be staying at Dereks then"?, Penelope said, "yeah we figured it would be a better environment for her, he has a house with a big back yard and I have a small apartment". Emily said, "she's going to love it, she'll have so much room to play with Clooney", Penelope nodded her head and said, "not to mention the swing set, sand box and tree house he wants to get her" and JJ and Emily grinned.

Dave smiled as his cell started ringing, he pulled it from his belt and said, "yes Bella"? and Fran said, "have you taken off yet"?, he said, "we have and we should be home in a few hours". Fran said, "good, good, okay so I am at Dereks right now, I'm getting things ready for my granddaughter".

Dave said, "that doesn't surprise me sweetheart, not at all", Fran said, "that little girl has been through so much and I want her to feel safe, happy and comfortable here". Dave said, "of course Bella, of course", Fran said, "okay well me, Sarah and Desi will be waiting here at Dereks, travel safe and we'll see you soon".

Fran giggled as Dave said, "I love you Bella and maybe tonight I'll show you just how much I've missed you", Fran said, "ohhhh I look forward to it my love, see ya soon". Dave said, "that you will beautiful, that you will" as the call ended and as he looked at the back of the jet he couldn't help but smile as he saw Derek and Tracey wrapped in each others arms peacefully sleeping.

Everybody grabbed their cell phones and snapped a picture and Penelope said, "awwww that was just to cute to miss" and everybody nodded their heads yes in agreement and then sat back and got comfortable for the rest of the flight home.
