Could you imagine how horrible things would be if we always told others how we felt? Life would be intolerably bearable.

"Hey silly girl... I love you. You know that right."

Truer words have never been spoken and in that moment Garcia knew she would always have a knight in shining armor.

I love you too...Penelope said back in utter shock and amazement staring at her chocolate Adonis. She was sure her heart skipped a few beats as thoughts raced in her head an overwhelming emotion flood her system like waves crashing against the coastline. She just might have to call her doctor to revive her.

Morgan's eyes linger for a moment more before breaking the silent void of emotions by rushing her off to bed. If he had waited a moment more he would said something he couldn't undo. He had to catch the man that did this to his Baby Girl. He wanted to protect her with everything he had in him, even his life.


After seeing Battle lying dead on the floor in the office of the BAU Garcia question what the reason all these things had to happen was.

"Hey silly girl... I love you. You know that right."

Morgan's voice still echoed in her head. She couldn't dwell there to long she had to had to apologize to JJ. The whole team wanted her to get back to the hospital but all she wanted to do was go home. Her sexual chocolate hero came to her side.

She looked up and gazed into Derek deep brown eyes and stop at his full lips.

Garcia looked away. "Is it over?"

"Yeah Baby Girl it's over." he enclosed her into his strong protect arms and pushed her bangs back so he could kissed her four head ever so gently.

"Let's get you home."

Morgan guided Penelope to the elevator. they road down to the parking grarage in silences.


The ride home in Derek's truck was quite. Each party consumed in their own thoughts.

Derek grip the will tightly and then loosen his grip several times trying to sift through the events of the day, trying to make sense of the feeling he's been having since she said those word with that look on her face. He was profiler and he read the surprise the happiness, and something else on her face that he couldn't quite place.

Derek clears his throat and glances over to Garcia "Hey Goddess, I'm so sorry about what I said earlier about-"

Garcia cut him off before he could finish. "Morgan don't apolo-" s but she was quickly sshhed by Derek Strong defiant tone.

"Look woman don't you ever think you're not the most beautiful, sexy, attractive woman I've meet because you are and any man is crazy if he doesn't see it."

Garcia blush smiling at Morgan's charm

"You're not too bad yourself hot stuff."

He laughed the first laugh he had in days. He grabbed her hand and brought it to his lips before he could stop himself.

He looked to gauge Garcia's reaction and she didn't pull away.

"Oh mon amour sont vous essayant de faire mon coeur s'arrêter." Garcia giggled.

He laughed once again, her smile warmed his soul there was a reason he thought of Garcia as his God given solace. "You know I love that French talk."

They arrived at Garcia's place within 30 minutes as Garcia got out of Morgan's truck so confused, tantalized, and stimulated she didn't notice hime grab his go bag and walk her to the door.

"Mor-...Derek. I'm fine the guy is dead and I am safe you don't have stay."

Derek shifted his weight and moved closer to stroke her cheek. Garcia could smell his cologne and feel his breath breeze past her cheek.

"Baby Girl I told you, I'm staying on your couch." Morgab flashed his cinematic grin then leaned forward to whisper in her hear "Now are you really going to send me home?"

Garcia felt a tingle travel down her spine and warm her in all the right or wrong places (she hadn't decide yet) as Morgan's warm breath caressed her neck.

"Th-Tha-That enough out of you you're not playing far." she quarreled as she let him in her home once again.

"Never said I would Baby Girl" His eyes twinkled in delight and satisfaction of his victory.


Garcia dressed in her PJ's in the bath room after convincing Morgan that she didn't need his help to slip on her night shirt. Although she considers what naughty bits she might be missing and cursed herself for not having video surveillance in her living room.

A few hours later all was settled and Derek lied on the couch sleep as Penelope tried to sleep but even with a good dose of meds every time she closed her eyes she heard him

"Garcia I've been thinking about doing this all night"

Derek leapt up when he heard his angel love whimpering in bed tear trailing down her cheek as she wept in her sleep. He felt so helpless again like when arrived at the hospital and got the news. He brushed her cheek to wake her.

"Ssshh baby girl I'm here. I'm not going anywhere. It's okay it's over."

Garcia woke up to Morgan gentle kneeling beside her bed gently stroking her hair.

She reached for Derek scared, he slide in bed with her and held her in his arms as she broke down for the first real time since the ordeal. Morgan just held her tight and shh-ed her repeating what he said early gently stroking her hair. Her crying soon slowed in to dry gulps of air.

"Are you okay baby Girl" Morgan asked as he tilted her chin to look in to his eyes. He brushed the hair out of face.

Garcia nodded still staring at him she had never felt more vulnerable. He made her feel like a little bitty girl safe in his arms. It just felt right.

They didn't break their gaze. Garcia had forgotten to breathe as she stared into Morgan's eyes.

"Baby girl come back to me." Morgan said noticing she hadn't inhaled since she looked at him.

"I'm in love you Derek." Garcia blurted out before her mind could stop her.

Morgan couldn't take it anymore,, what he felt for Garcia welled up inside him breaking through his protective walls he smiled and kissed Garcia passionately sliding her on top of him.

'I'm in love with you too Penelope." He said breathless panting form the kiss that they just shared. Penelope for once was dazed and speechless her mouth open her mind trying to catch up to the actions.

"WOOT" she whispered Morgan laugh and held her close…

"Get some rest silly girl we will talk in the morning."


Sometimes when you look back on a situation, you realize it wasn't all you thought it was. A beautiful girl walked into your life. You fell in love.
