Gotta Be With You

Morgan and Garcia

Chapter 6

September 2007

They barely could keep their lips off each other from the moment he pulled his SUV in his driveway. They had flung themselves in each other's arms and kissed for long minutes before exiting the vehicle, kissed as they made their way up to the door, kissed as he unlocked the door, kissed while he disarmed the alarm, started to strip right there and kept kissing as Clooney barked at their feet.

Three years of denying themselves this had pent up their lust so much that they were lucky they had made it inside the house before they got naked.

Derek cupped Penelope's face, as he stared into her eyes, which were lit up with a deep simmering lust and a sweet, tender devotion all at once. His voice was hoarse when he confessed "We should have done this a long damn time ago. I've wanted you since the day we met, woman." He gave her a slow, sensual, tongue tangling kiss before adding "So bad. I want you so bad. I need you so bad, baby girl."

"Oh, Derek," she moaned out his name as she feasted on her throat "my sexy prince, make all my wildest and dirtiest dreams come true."

He chuckled and scooped her off her feet. "Coming right up, mama."

They lay in bed, sweat slicked and breathless, laying on their side, staring deep into each other's eyes, both wearing looks filled with love.

Derek ran a finger from Penelope's temple down to her lips. She sucked on his finger for a moment before letting it go.

She cooed at him "Such tasty chocolate."

He smirked. "Garcia, you're so silly." He gave her a short kiss. "Mmmmm. I could stay in this bed for forty eight hours straight."

She smoothed her hand down his chest. "I could do this for forty eight days straight."

Derek chuckled before he started to lay kisses along her jaw. "Maybe I should handcuff you to this bed and give you your wish."

"You wouldn't need handcuffs to keep me here," she murmured before scooting right against his body, throwing one leg over him, and bringing her lips to his.

Derek had seen other women wearing his clothes before. Penelope had even wore his sweat shirts before when she was cold. Those times didn't compare to the sexy way she looked that morning though.

Derek had woken up in bed alone. For a moment he felt panic, thinking Penelope had left in the middle of the night, but then he heard her singing and moving around his kitchen. He had smiled as he lay back in bed, thinking how cute she was and how sore he was after spending all night making love with his baby girl.

After heading to the bathroom he jerked on some boxer shorts and came downstairs. He found her in the kitchen, dressed in one of his shirts. It barely skimmed the top of her thighs. He licked his lips as he leaned against the door and watched her.

She was humming as she stood in front of the stove.

He murmured "Baby girl, that shirt was made for you."

She chuckled and looked over her shoulder, her blonde wavy hair tousled and her lips puffy from a night of being throughly kissed. "No, it was made for a sexy super fox like you but I make it look good, don't I, handsome?"

He moved close to her, wrapping his arms around her from behind and nuzzling her neck, "You make it look damn good." His hands smoothed up her rib cage and then caressed her breasts.

She moaned before telling him "You bad boy, you're distracting me. I'm trying to cook breakfast."

He flipped off the burner. "I'm not hungry," he told her, before spinning her around and bringing her into another kiss.

The only thing Derek Morgan wanted that morning was more of Penelope Garcia. He had a feeling that he would be craving good mornings with her for the whole rest of his life.

And if he was a very lucky man he would get them.

"I don't need you to protect me, Derek," Penelope said, as they stood outside the inn in Alaska, where they had just finished up a case where Penelope witnessed a man dying.

"Tough. I think I'm gonna stay on the job for a little while longer."

"Oh yeah? How much longer?"

"Everyday for the rest of my life."

A sweet smile curved her lips. "That will work out well since I plan to spend the whole rest of my life being your ball and chain."

"Hey," he teased "you're my Goddess. Derek Morgan would never let himself get tied down with a ball and chain."

"Says the married man with a baby at home."

"Having such a sexy hot thang in my bed every night means there will be plenty of baby making going on in the years to come."

She wrapped her arms around his waist and looked up into his eyes. "Mmm, that sounds good to me, Hot Stuff, but if you tire me out too much I won't be able to run after all the babies we make."

He chuckled. "So I'll run after them then."

She grinned. "Best daddy in the world, according to our little lady bug."

Derek beamed with pride. "She's biased."

"I happen to agree with her. Best hubby in the world too." They shared a sweet kiss. "I'm sorry I ran straight into danger. I don't want to risk my life. I love my life. I love you more than there are stars in the sky. You're my chocolate God of thunder who came into my life and made my heart race so hard I was sure you could hear it. It was saying: So fine! So sexy! All mine, mine, mine! I want that man forever."

"Took a while for us both to admit it but your heart had us pegged from the start."

(Chemistry was crazy from the get-go.
Neither one of us knew why.

-x-
We didn't build nothing overnight
cause a love like this takes some time.

x-x
People swore it off as a phase.
Said "We can't see that."

-x-
Now from top to bottom
they see that we did that.

Its so true that.

We've been through that.

We got real shit.

-x-

Baby, we've been too strong for too long

and I can't be without you.)
