With A Little Help From My Son-Ch 13
After the men checked the house and found nothing they grabbed a beer and headed outside, Hank grabbed a glass of lemonade while Jack and Henry grabbed some ice tea before heading back outside to join their fathers and Dave on the beach. While the men sat on the beach they continued to talk about Derek and Penelopes relationnship.
At the spa Penelope said, "I've never felt this way before", Fran said, "my son does have a way about him doesn't he"?, Penelope said, "that he does Mrs, I mean Fran". Fran smiled and said, "I haven't seen my son this happy in years, he really loves you", Penelope said, "we've only known each other for a week but I do, I love him to" causing the other 3 women with her to smile.
The day was going great, they had their facials, mani, pedis and were sitting and drinking tea and talking about future plans. Penelope had really enjoyed her day with the girls but her mind kept thinking about how much she missed Derek.
At the beach Hank had been inside the house several times for lemonade, it was so hot and the ice cold lemonade tasted so good to him. Derek glanced over his shoulder and saw the three little boys playing with Clooney and said, "this trip was really good for Hank, he needed this".
Hotch said, "we all needed this", Derek said, "I couldn't agree more" as he took another sip of his beer, meanwhile down by the water Hanks vision was getting blurry, he looked at Jack and said, "I don't feel good Jack".
Jack said, "are you sick"?, Hank then became very dizzy and was getting sleepy, he dropped to his knees and said, "dad, get dad" before collapsing on the sand. Henry said, "UNCLE DEREKKKKKKKKK COME QUICK, COME QUICK, IT'S HANK, IT'S HANK".
Derek ran toward his son with his heart racing, he quickly checked for a pulse and said, "call 911" and Reid quickly dialed 911 while Derek talked to the boys to find out what happened. Jack said, "he was fine and then he told us he didn't feel good".
Derek said, "did he say anything else"?, Henry said, "he told us to get you and then he, then he" as he wrapped his arms around Reids legs and watched helplessly. Derek said, "come on buddy, open your eyes and look at me".
He got no response and he kept talking to Hank and he was still talking to his son when the medics showed up and started checking him out. Derek and the others watched helplessly as the medics worked to get the unconscious boy onto the gurney and up the beach.
As they loaded Hank into the back of the ambulance Reid pulled his cell out and dialed JJ's number, at the spa the girls were just getting ready to leave when JJ's cell started ringing. She said, "it's Spence" she then hit talk and said, "missing us already Spence".
Everybody could tell by the look on her face that something was wrong, JJ said, "we'll be right there" before putting her cell back in her purse. She then looked at the others and said, 'we've got to get to the hospital", Penelope said, "w w why, what happened"?, JJ put her hands on her new friend and said, "it's Hank, he collapsed and they are rushing him to the hospital".
Penelopes heart raced as she followed the other women toward the car, she jumped when she felt a hand slid in hers. She then saw the worried face of Fran and she said, "he's gonna be fine, he's gonna be fine", Fran said, "from your lips Penelope, from your lips" as they climbed into the car and pulled away from the curb.
