Survival Ch 6 A- Informing Penelopes Brothers
Derek sighed as he picked up his cell to dial Penelopes brothers, after a few rings he heard, "hello", Derek said, "hello, is this Payton Garcia"?, he said, "yes, who's this"?, he said, "this is Derek Morgan and I'm a friend of your sisters". He said, "is something wrong"?, Derek looked down at a small picture of Penelope and then said, "Payton, Penelope she was kidnapped along with the other girls of the team".
Payton said, "oh my god, have you heard from the kidnappers, what do they want"?, he said, "Payton we got her back, her and the other girls and JJ and Em are going to make a full recovery". Payton could tell from Dereks voice that something was wrong, something was bad wrong and he said, "what about my sister"?, Derek said, "she was stabbed repeatedly and they did everything they could but".
Payton said, "no, it can't be true, no she can't be gone, she just can't be", Derek said, "I'm so sorry for your loss", he wiped a tear and said, "what about you, how are you holding up, you loved her to". Derek said, "she was the light of my life and I don't know what I'm going to do without her man,
I really don't".
Paul came into the room and said, "what's wrong Pay"?, he said, "we need to head to Virginia", Paul said, "what happened, is Penelope alright"?, he shook his head and said, "no Paul, she's she's". Paul said, "no not squirt, please tell me it's a mistake", Payton said, "is there anyway that it is all a mistake Derek, maybe it's somebody else".
Derek said, "I wish it was Payton I really wish it was but I saw her myself", Paul said, "I'll go tell the others", he then turned and headed out of the room. Payton said, "we'll get our things packed and then we get the first flight we can", Derek said, "I have plenty of room here at my place, you are all welcome to stay here with me".
Payton said, "thank you, I'll call you and let you know once we land", Derek sighed and said, "do you need my number"?, he said, "no I'll get it off the ID". Derek sighed and said, "I'm so sorry for your loss, if there is anything else I can do please just let me know", Payton said, "you loved her and were there for her that's more than enough".
Derek said, "have a safe trip and I'll see you all soon", Payton sighed and said, "thanks for calling Derek and we will see you as soon as we possibly can". After the call ended Derek put his cell down and buried his face in his hands and said, "I'm so sorry sweetness, I'm so sorry that I couldn't save you".
He looked up when his cell started ringing, he looked down at the ID and saw "Momma" flashing, he wiped his eyes and said, "hi momma", she said, "I'm so sorry to hear about Penelope". He said, "did Dave tell you"?, she said, "yes honey", Derek said, "I don't know what I'm going to do without her in my life momma".
Fran said, "is there anything I can do to help, do you need me to call her brothers"?, he said, "no I just got off the phone with Payton and Paul, they are going to get packed and catch the first flight they can and they are going to call me when they get started this way". Fran said, "do they need a place to stay"?, he said, "no they are going to stay with me momma but thank you".
Fran said, "do you need me to come there baby boy"?, he said, "right now momma the only thing I need is to see the smiling happy face of my beautiful baby girl". She said, "I wish that I could arrange that son but I can't", he said, "I know momma, I know but she has been my best friend for years and just when I get ready".
She said, "just when you get ready to do what"?, he said, "I was gonna tell her that I loved her momma and that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her but now I will never get that chance". Fran said, "she loved you to sweetie, she loved you as much as you loved her", he said, "do you really think so momma"?, she wiped a tear away and said, "I know so".
Derek sighed and said, "I better get off here and go check on Emily and JJ but I'll see you later okay momma"?, she said, "okay honey but if you need anything please call". He said, "I will momma, I promise" after the call ended he sighed as he headed back inside the hospital, right now he needed to check on the girls because his baby girl would want that.
He sighed as he walked over to the waiting room, he looked around and the same man that was there earlier was still there and he said, "have you heard any news on your wife"?, he said, "yes they came out and told me that I can see her in a few minutes, what about you"?, Derek looked down at the floor and said, "Penelope, she, she".
Zach said, "I'm so sorry for your loss", he took a deep breath and said, "thanks", they looked up to see Hotch, Dave and Reid walking over, Zach then got up and said, "I think I'll go grab a coffee, again I'm sorry to hear about Penelope". As he walked away he said, "it didn't have to be this way rosebud, it didn't have to be this way".
