Wanting-Ch 24

Derek woke up the next morning to an empty bed, he raised up and started to get out of bed when the door opened and Penelope stepped inside with a tray filled with food for the two of them. He smiled and said, "I was wondering what happened to you", she put the tray down and kissed his lips ever so gently and said, "I was hoping to surprise you with breakfast".

He leaned back against the headboard of the bed and said, "I was afraid that you regretted lastnight and this morning", she shook her head and said,
"I don't doubt a minute of time we've spent together, not a minute". She sat down in front of him and put the tray across his lap and said, "I hope you're hungry this morning".

He wiggled his eyebrows and said, "I'm starving", she laughed and said, "I think I've created a monster", he smiled as he picked up a piece of bacon and took a bite. She took a sip of juice and said, "lastnight was amazing, you were so gentle with me", he caressed her cheek and said, "lastnight was special for me to sweetness and I wanted to take my time and love you the way my girl deserves to be loved".

She smiled as she took a bite of strawberry and said, "a girl could get use to that kind of treatment", he leaned in and said, "good", he then put his finger in the whipped cream and smeared it all over her lips. He then leaned in and kissed her lips and when they pulled apart he nipped at her lips until they were clean and said, "now that's the way to have strawberries".

She laughed and said, "so what are the plans for today"?, he said, "just gonna hang around with my baby and family for the day and then tonight is the big party". She said, "when do we head back to Virginia"?, he sighed and said, "Sunday morning", she took a bite of sausage and said, "I can't help but wonder when I will have to come back for court".

He put his hand on hers and said, "don't worry baby girl, we will all be here for you when you do", she smiled and said, "I don't know what I would do without you". He kissed her lips and said, "I'm not going anywhere, none of us are, we love you and we will be here to help you through this, through all of this".

While they were enjoying their delicious breakfast they talked about a little of everything especially the wedding and the baby, he looked up at her and gave her that famous Derek Morgan smile and said, "when we get back home I want you to move in with me". She laughed and said, "really"?, he looked at her and said, "yes really, you're going to be my wife and I want you and our baby with me all the time".

She grinned and said, "I kinda love you Derek Morgan", he laughed and said, "I kinda love you to Penelope Garcia", she sighed happily as they finished their meal. After breakfast they got dressed and headed downstairs where they saw the smiling face of Desiree and she said, "I was wondering what time you lovebirds were going to come downstairs".

Penelope said, "we were tired this morning so we decided to sleep in", she grinned as she took a sip of her juice, Derek said, "where's momma this morning"?, she said, "she went into town, something about some last minute things she needed so Sarah went with her". Derek said, "I need another cup of coffee, I'll be right back".

Desiree and Penelope watched as he headed into the kitchen, Deisree said, "it's good to see the two of you so happy", she said, "your brother is one amazing man". She put her hand on Penelopes and said, "and you are one amazing woman", Penelope smiled and said, "I want to thank you for everything you have done for me Desi".

She smiled and said, "hey you're my sister now to and family always helps family", she grinned and said, "that they do Desi, that they do", they looked up and saw Derek walking into the room. He took a sip of his coffee and said, "and what are you two lovely ladies talking about"?, Desiree said, "well birthday boy we are talking about your amazing fiancee".

The three of them were laughing and talking when Fran, Sarah and the team walked through the door, Henry and Jack ran over to Derek and jumped up in his lap and hugged him and started squealing, "HAPPY BIRFDAY". He grinned and said, "thank you", Henry laid his head down on one side of Dereks chest and Jack on the other.

Henry looked up at Derek and said, "tan we pway"?, he said, "sure, what do you want to play"?, he said, "me no no uncle Dewek", Fran laughed and said, "why don't you take them to the park it's right up the street, I'm sure they would have a blast". He looked at them and said, "would you like to go to the park and play"?, they both started nodding their heads and clapping their hands and saying, "pweaseeeeeee".

Fran said, "I have a few things I need to do but you all go and have some fun", Derek looked down and smiled when he saw Jack take on hand and Henry the other and they led him out of the house. JJ and Emily walked beside Penelope and Emily said, "alright PG dish it, you are practically glowing this morning".

She smiled and said, "a lady never kisses and tells", JJ leaned in and said, "I knew it, you got lucky lastnight didn't you"?, she nodded her head yes and said, "and again this morning 3 times". Emily laughed and said, "I didn't know Morgan had it in him", she grinned and said, "ohhhhhhh he does Em,
he soooooooooo does" and the girls laughed as they followed the men up the street toward the park.
