Wanting-Ch 19
When Fran walked into the house about half an hour later she hugged Derek and he said, "how is she momma"?, Fran said, "a little better, she's just sitting out there enjoying the sunshine right now". He kissed her cheek and said, "I'm going to go out to her", Fran nodded her head and smiled as she watched him disappear out the door.
He walked over to the swing and sat down gently beside her and didn't say anything, after a few minutes she reached over and put her hand in his and said, "I love you Derek". He wrapped his free arm around her and said, "I love you to Penelope, I've always loved you and I always will", she took a deep breath as she laid her head down on his shoulder.
He kissed the top of her head and said, "are you hungry, breakfast is almost ready and the team will be here soon", she nodded her head as she rubbed her stomach and said, "we're starving". He said, "well then how about you let your hotstuff take you into the kitchen and get you something hot to eat"?, she winked at him and said, "lead the way hotstuff".
They stood up and headed through to the kitchen, Derek smiled and said, "momma made homemade donuts, would you like one"?, she said, "ohhh yes that sounds great". He put her one out on a saucer and said, "would you like something to drink"?, she said, "how about a little milk"?, he smiled and said,
"milk it is".
Sarah and Desiree walked over to Fran in the living room and Sarah said, "how is she doing momma"?, Fran said, "she's in the process right now of trying to deal with what happened to her. Desiree said, "is there anything we can do for her"?, Fran hugged her girls and said, "just be here for her and let her know that you care".
Sarah and Desi smiled and Desiree said, "we will momma, we will", Fran said, "how about we get breakfast up on the table, the rest of the team should be here soon". Fran and the girls headed back into the kitchen and smiled when they saw the couple wrapped in each others arms, they headed over to the stove where they started taking the food off the stove and carrying it into the dining room.
when they got breakfast put on the table Fran smiled when she saw the team walking up on the porch, she said, "come in, come in, breakfast is ready and on the table". One by one the team made it inside and Hotch stopped and said, "how is Penelope today"?, Fran said, "she's doing better today, she is trying to come to grips with what Sam did to her".
Hotch said, "we might have a problem", Fran said, "problem, what kind of problem", Dave leaned forward and said, "he is saying that it was Penelope that wanted the marriage and his friend the one that married him is backing his story". Fran said, "but we know that isn't true", he said, "of course we do and now we are gonna prove it".
Fran said, "what about the baby, does Sam know that she's pregnant"?, Hotch shook his head and said, "no and for now we think it's best if we keep it that way". She nodded her head and said, "I agree because when he learns that she's pregnant he is gonna go after that baby", Hotch said, "I can promise you that he won't get his hands on that baby or Penelope again", he leaned in and said, "NO MATTER WHAT WE HAVE TO DO".
Derek walked into the living room and said, "oh hey guys, I hope that you're all hungry because momma fixed a feast", JJ said, "we're starving aren't we Henry"?, the little boy nodded his head yes as they headed toward the dining room. Hotch said, "Morgan we need to talk", he said, "why don't we go outside, I don't want Penelope to hear this".
They headed outside and Derek said, "what's wrong"?, Hotch said, "Sam and the man that married them are both saying that the marriage was all Penelopes idea". Derek said, "son of a bitch, are you serious"?, Hotch said, "yes, unfortunately I am", he said, "what about the drugs in her system, I suppose she gave them to herself"?, he said, "I need you to calm down Derek, Penelope needs us to stay calm".
He took a deep breath and said, "what about the baby"?, he said, "we need to keep that quiet for now because when he finds out that she's pregnant he will try to go after the baby". Derek leaned forward and said, "before he gets his hands on that baby or Penelope again I'll kill him Hotch", he said,
"we will do whatever it takes to keep Penelope and the baby safe", he nodded his head in agreement as they headed back inside the house to join the rest of the family.
