Time Out-Ch 1
Penelope blew out a deep breath and rubbed her temples hoping to slow down the aching throb to her head, she sighed and said, "what happened to us hotstuff, why are we fighting?", she still couldn't believe that her and her best friend, her hotstuff, the love of her life, the man she had oogled from afar and from close up were fighting and all because of what and that was what she was trying to figure out.
They had been arguing for a few days and the rest of the team was praying that they would get sent out of town on a case so that they could put some distance between the best friends because if they didn't stop fighting and soon nobody was sure how much longer they would remain best friends.
Reid looked up from his file and glanced across the room and saw that Derek was gone, he got up and made his way to JJ's office and on the way down the hall he managed to grab the others. JJ looked up from her paperwork when she saw her husband and rest of her team, well all minus Derek and Penelope who were nowhere to be seen.
JJ smiled and said, "to what do I owe the pleasure of this gathering?", Dave walked in and sat down in a seat while the others followed him and after Reid closed the door he propped down on her desk and said, "we've got to do something about Morgan and Garcia". The team all nodded their heads and Dave said, "we're all on the same page with ya kid, but what are we going to do?", Reid grinned and leaned in and said, "now this is my plan" and everybody was all smiles as they sat there listening to just what he had in store for the fighting duo.
Meanwhile Penelope looked up from her computer when she heard a knock at the door, she said, "come in", the door opened and Derek stepped inside and said, "sweetness can we talk?", she rubbed her temples and said ,"not now Derek". Derek said, "will you at least tell me what we're fighting about because I have no clue whatsoever".
Penelope said, "oh yes you do", he said, "oh no I don't", she said, "YES YOU DO", Derek said, "NO I DON'T", Penelope said, "why don't you go back to that tramp and leave me alone Morgan". Derek said, "tramp, who?" and he said, "so that's what this is about, you're jealous, you are jealous aren't you baby girl?", she said, "GET OUT OF MY OFFICE" and when he still stood there she walked over and pushed him out into the hall and said, "UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE YOU ARE TO STAY AWAY FROM ME".
Derek watched as she shut, no as she slammed the door in his face and as he tried to go back inside her found the door locked, he said, "VERY MATURE BABY GIRL, VERY MATUREEEEEEEE" and as he walked away he stuck his tongue out at her. Penelope collapsed against the door and said, "what's wrong with me, what Derek does in his personal life is none of my business, he's my best friend, I should be happy for him if he's found somebody to be with".
She bit down on her bottom lip and said, "and who wouldn't want to be with him he's smart, sexy, an amazing agent, sexy, hot, a stud and did I mention that he was sexy" causing her to giggle as she finally came to her senses. She blew out a deep breath and said, "you know what you've got to do, you've got to put on your big girl panties and go tell him that you're sorry, he's your best friend and you know that he's never ever everrrrrrrr gonna see you the same way that you see him".
Penelope sighed and said, "come on Garcie, you can do it, you can be the bigger person, you are the one that needs to apologize to him and the sooner you do it the sooner you can get back to your friendly banter that drives everybody nuts". She unlocked and opened her door and started making her way up the hall, as she looked around she saw that everybody else was gone and wondered if Derek had gone home for the day too.
When she got to the end of the hall she felt herself being grabbed from behind, she was then shoved into a closet and the door slammed shut rather quickly so that she couldn't escape. She started pounding on the door and said, "heyyyyy, this isn't funny, let me out, come on let me outtttttttttttt" and for a few seconds she continued pounding on the door.
She stopped when she heard the sexy voice of her best friend say, "it's no use baby girl, I tried that and it didn't work for me either", she said, "D D Derek, what are you doing in here?", he said, "well I thought I would throw myself into the closet and then lock the door for the fun of it". Penelope said, "their is no use to be a smart butt about it" to which Derek said, "you're right, I'm sorry sweetness, it's not your fault that we're both locked in here".
Penelope glanced down at her watch and said, "maybe the others are still here, maybe if we" and before she could say anything else she heard the voice of Spencer say, "get comfortable in there you two because you're not getting out until you make up". Penelope said, "boy wonder, I love you, I do but when I get out of here I'm going to destroy all of your Dr. Who figures" causing Reid to say, "you don't mean that Garcia, you're just mad because we tricked you both and locked you both in there".
Derek said, "wait we, who's we pretty boy?", JJ, Emily, Hotch and Dave then said, "meeeee" and Penelope said, "I can't believe that you are all working with boy wonder on this, come on guys let us out, their is nothing to eat or drink in here and I'm hungry". Emily said, "nice try PG but if you will both look in that huge box in the corner you will see plenty of food and drink and even a blanket to keep you warm tonight, that is unless you make up and then we will be glad to let you out".
Penelope said, "guys this isn't funny, come on, open the door and let us out", Dave said, "sorry kitten but until the two of you make up and I mean reallyyyyyyy make up you aren't getting out of there so I suggest that you two make yourselves comfortable and start talking". Derek said, "you're treating us like children, now stop this and let us out of here", Hotch said, "you two are acting like children so we're going to treat you like children".
Derek said, "meaning what exactly?", Hotch said, "until you two make up you are on a time out", Derek and Penelope in unison said, "time out" and JJ said, "sorry Garcie but we love you both and can't stand to see you fighting so please just talk things out and then we will gladly let you out of there" and before Penelope or Derek either one could say anything else the team said, "good night" in unison and turned and walked up the hall, leaving Derek and Penelope locked up in the closet alone.
