a/n: Thanks so much for the reviews! Quite a small chapter, but my creative juices have totally evaporated. Got the idea of the cheesy pick up line through a story by bahjcb.

Chapter two

Eventually Penelope interrupted the silence: "Perhaps you can prepare your kids after all." She chuckled. "You know for the dangerous world out there."

"Perhaps, he could still be lifted from his bed at night though, or get shot, drugged, or…"

"Yes Morgan, geez I get the point Mr Grimreaper. I'm merely saying that if we as parents prepare the kids a bit they might not be total sitting ducks."

"I understand what you mean, sweetheart. And you're right of course. I'm just saying that they're never completely safe. Speaking of kids getting killed, what do you want for your birthday when we get back?" He asked with a wink.

Penelope laughed out loud. "Nice Derek, very nice." She smiled, punching him lightly on his arm. "Perhaps we can all go out for dinner, my treat of course."

"We'll see about who's getting treats, but that sounds like a nice plan. I have to leave you now though gorgeous. I'll call you tonight, alright?"

"Sure, hot stuff! I'll dress up nicely and will wait with the blowing out of my candles just for you." She joked.

A warm smile spread on his face: "Happy Birthday, Pen!" He said softly, hugging her tight, before giving her a kiss on the cheek. "I'll miss you." He whispered in her ear, making her eyebrows almost reach her hairline. After a while he let her go and looked her in the eye.

"Well you know what to do: I'm only a phone call away." Garcia told him, the playfulness momentarily gone.

"Jup, now I'll see you soon, goddess. Take care and enjoy the rest of your birthday."

"Oh, but how can I enjoy it when there is no chocolate sculpted body to behold." She cried out dramatically, giving him a wicked grin.

"You and your sweet tooth, hmm. Just check your office. I'm sure you won't miss me for a second after you do." Morgan gently put a strand of her hair behind her left ear. "Now shoo, go enjoy my presents."

Penelope's eyes lit up in delight and surprise, before she skipped of, a huge grin plastered on her face.

Derek simply shook his head, turned around and walked towards the parking lot. He really did hate the fact that he seemed to miss her a tat more every time they said goodbye.

'Morgan, don't go all sappy on yourself now.' He berated himself, while getting in his car and slowly driving away.

Garcia raced as gracefully as possible to her office, coming to a screeching halt in front of her door. Her hand grasped the door-handle lowering it slowly, opening her door. The sight in front of her took her breath away. 'Derek Morgan', she thought. 'You really are something!' Suddenly her phone started ringing.
"And what do you think?" a sultry voice purred in her ear.

"I… I think I'm speechless."

Morgan started roaring with laughter. "I think I achieved my goal then."

"How did you…" Penelope asked, still in shock.

"A magician never gives away his tricks, my dear." He replied in a mysterious voice, still trying to hold his laughter.

"Oh come on, no fair, my Dark Night. Tell me!" She begged, pouting her lips, even though she knew he couldn't see her.

"Don't pout your lips at me!" Morgan grinned, making Garcia's eyes widen and clap her free hand over her mouth. "It's not going to work, precious. My lips are sealed. Now go enjoy your gift and leave a bit for me. I'll talk to you soon." Derek told her, ending the conversation.

The blond woman stared from the phone in her hands to the rest of her room and back, still in total awe. She scratched her head not really knowing where to begin: the keyboard, the screen, the mouse, the…" Shaking her blond curls, she approached her desk and carefully lifted the chocolate keyboard, inspecting it closely. It was an exact replica of her own one, as every chocolate made computer piece was. How in the heavens had he managed to do this. She hardly ever left her office, and when she did she locked it thoroughly. She broke of a bit of the keyboard, taking a gentle nibble of the edge. Pure, delicious heaven! Penelope sat down on her chair: 'Derek Morgan, what am I to do with you?' she wondered.

After a while she carefully started to remove the chocolate computer from her desk, putting it on an empty table next to it, so both her chocolate and her real babies were safe.

She activated her computers and went back to work. Now that there had been one more killing she could start a background search on the latest victim and perhaps even find a similarity to the other ones.

After several hours her phone rang, picking it up she smiled and said: "Baby, you must indeed be a magician because every time I think of you, everyone else just disappears."

"Excuse me?" A shocked female voice replied. "Is this miss Garcia?"

Penelope's eyes widened, while she hit her head silently on her keyboard. "Ma'am I'm so sorry. I expected it to be someone else." She said in a meek tone of voice.

"Ah… uh… okay, this is Anne Baxter. We met today in the park. I'm sorry to interrupt your work, but my son is dying to know if it's at all possible to visit the bureau some day."

Relaxing a bit, when she realised it wasn't Strauss, she replied: "Unfortunately I haven't had the time to look into it yet, but now I have your number I'll be sure to contact you once I do. It might take several days as it needs to be cleared through official channels though."

"Thank you so much, that would be great. Now I won't hold you back any longer."

"That's quite alright. I have four younger brothers and I can totally imagine how excited your son must be right now." Penelope told her.

"Well thank you anyway and perhaps until someday soon." The woman said gratefully.

"I'll let you know."

With a smile Penelope lay the phone, and stared at her screen once more. 'Let's see what connects you poor lot all together, shall we.' She thought to herself, starting to type away.
