Derek woke up to the sound of knocking on his bedroom door.

Derek called out, "Go away."

Des said, "Derek its after 10 and mama said get your ass up."

Deere sighed. He gently shook Penelope and said, "Hey P we gotta get up."

Penelope groaned and said, "Don't want to."

Derek smiled and said, "Come on up you go silly girl."

Derek found his sweatpants and pulled Penelope to her feet. Penelope scowled at him but put her glasses on anyway and got dressed in her pajama pants, put her bra on, and pulled on Derek's Chicago PD shirt.

They made their way downstairs. They walked into the kitchen. Spencer was helping Des make pancakes. Fran was cutting up fresh fruit, and scrambling eggs.

Derek asked, "Anything we can do?"

Fran said pointedly, "Grandbabies, other than that we are covered."

Des said, "With all the noise they were making last night, you might get those grandbabies sooner than you think."

Penelope smacked Derek's arm. "I told you."

Derek said, "It's okay baby."

Fran said, "Now to change the subject. Penelope can you get the syrup out of the fridge please? And Derek start a pot of coffee."

They both did as they were asked.

They sat around the breakfast table talking about nothing. Penelope could see the worry in Fran's face. Derek took the time to study the two women. He figured whatever it was they would tell when they are ready.

Spencer said, "Is okay with you after lunch if I take Des to a movie? I found this great cinema that is running a sci-fi film festival."

Fran said, "Sure honey. You two have fun."

Des said, "Thank you mama. Hey Derek do you and Penelope want to go?"

Derek said, "Naw I got plans for my baby girl."

Penelope smiled and said, "Hot stuff you know I hate surprises."

Derek said, "Baby I know, but I promise you will love it."

"Anything for my hotstuff."

"That's my girl."

They continued to make small talk.

Fran stood up and said, "I better get started on lunch. Des call your sister and tell her to get her butt over here."

Des said, "Aye, aye captain."

The rest of the morning was uneventful. It was about 12:30 when people started showing up.

Penelope smiled as she saw Sara's twin boys Kyle and Brian get out of the van.

Kyle and Brian ran up to Penelope and said, "Hey miss P."

Penelope said, "Hey you two. I got something for you."

The boys looked at each other, and then back at Penelope.

Kyle said, "I love…"

Brian said, "Surprises."

Penelope chuckled and said, "Come on."

Sara stopped next to Derek and said, "She is going to be a great mother."

Derek sighed happily and said, "I know."

Sara's husband Stephen said to Derek, "Hey man how's it hangin."

Derek smirked and said, "Life is good man."

Stephen said, "Yeah that tends to happen when you got a good woman."

Sara, Stephen and Derek walked into Fran's house, to see Penelope sitting on the floor with the boys showing them how their new computer game worked.

Brian and Kyle we looking at the game in awww.

Brian said, "I wanna play first."

Kyle whined and said, "I wanna play first."

Penelope smiled and said, "You both can play. Hey handsome will you give me your laptop?"

Stephen reached for the laptop and said, "Here you go gorgeous."

Derek, Sara, and Stephen laughed.

Derek threw his hands up and said, "Why everybody gotta be hittin on my woman."

Frankie and Joey came in next. They were carrying large bags of ice. Joey asked, "Hey Derek help me get some stuff out of the car?"

Derek said, "Sure. He came to a stop when he saw Janine."

Derek looked at Joey and asked, "What the hell?"

Joey shrugged and said, "She wasn't out here when I came in."

Janine sauntered over to Derek and said, "Hey you, it's been a long time."

Derek said sharply, "I'm engaged."

Janine said, "So what. I 'm married."

Derek said, "Then go home and fuck your husband."

Janine said, "Awww come on, don't be like that."

Joey said, "Janine I met his fiancé, she is a cool chick. My cuzzo would be a fool to mess around with you. So dip. Kick rocks, get to getting."

Janine scowled and the said, "Well maybe I will see what Frankie is doing tonight."

Frankie came out of the door and said, "Not you. Look Janine what you pulled all those years ago, could have destroyed Derek, Joey, and me. But it didn't. Now can you please leave before Penelope sees you."

Janine snorted and asked, "What kind of name is Penelope. You know my grandmother says she's fat."

Derek asked, "What did you say?"

Janine said, "You heard me."

Penelope said, "Yeah bitch and I heard you too. Funny from this distance you don't look like a slut. Penelope took her glasses off, she wiped them on her soft cotton sweater. She placed them back on and said, "Oh now I see it."

Derek chuckled, and Frankie and Joey laughed."

Janine said, "Whatever." And stormed off.

Penelope said, "So you wanna tell me why Janine almost broke up your friendship?"

Joey sighed and said, "First she went out with Derek. She comes to my house one night bawling saying Derek dumped her. She started taking her clothes off and one thing led to another."

Derek said, "I was out on a date with her a few days after that. I guess I went to the bathroom or something cause when I came back Joey had his tongue down Janine' s throat. I was more pissed that it was my cousin hurting me than about her."

Joey said, "Comes to find out that Frankie had been smashing this chick two days after her and Derek started dating."

Penelope said, "Gross."

Frankie said, "How do you think we feel? Wait did she say she was married?"

Derek said, "Yeah. Why?"

Joey said, "Aw come on Frankie you didn't"

Frankie said, "Maybe last month I might have."

Derek shook his head and said, "Damn man get you a girl and settle down."

Penelope said, "I was sent out here to get you three, so you can wash up."

Derek kissed the side of Penelope's head and said, "I love you mama."

Penelope said, "Derek I love you too."

Penelope felt a little faint. She leaned into Derek's side. Thankfully he didn't notice. She had been having these little spells here and there for a few days. The last thing she needed was an over protective Derek Morgan on her ass.

Everybody was seated at the table. Derek noticed an empty chair but didn't say anything. Reid was telling Kyle and Brian how he uses science with magic. He promises to show them after lunch. Even Frankie and Joey were a little excited about the magic show.

Penelope was talking to Des, Sara and Fran about her thoughts about the wedding.

Derek heard a knock at the door. Fran's breath got caught in her throat.

Derek stood up and said, "I'll get it."

Penelope chewed her lip and wrung her hands.

Nobody else notices the two women who looked like they had swallowed their tongues.

Derek opened the door and said, "Hey Rossi. What are you doing here? Please tell me it is not another case." Derek quit talking as soon as he noticed the wine and flowers in his hand.

Rossi cleared his throat and said, "I am here because your mother invited me here."

Derek asked, "She what?"

Fran said, "I invited him here."

Derek asked, "What in the hell would you do that for?"

Rossi said, "Hey son calm down."

Derek shot back, "I'm not your son."

Rossi said, "You know what I meant."

Fran said, "Derek get away from the door and let him in."

Derek said, "No. Not til someone tells me what is going on."

Fran said, "Honey Rossi and I have been dating for a while."

Derek said, "And neither one of you felt the need to tell me?"

Rossi said, "Am I really that bad?"

Derek said, "Really Rossi. How many wives have you had, not to mention the other chicks."

Rossi said, "Like you have room to talk."

Both men were looking at each other with the intent to kill.

Rossi said, "Derek look I care about your mother a lot. I would never hurt her like that."

Derek scoffed and said, "The hell you wouldn't. That is what you do isn't it. Fuck em and leave em."

Fran said, "Derek Morgan you will not use language like this in my house."

Derek huffed.

Rossi said, "Derek I know this is weird for you, but your mother is a grown woman. She made a choice to date me."

Derek said, "Well I don't like it. She could do better."

Penelope saw the hurt flash in Rossi's eyes.

Penelope stood up and walked in between the two men.

Penelope asked, "Can we please talk about this calmly?"

Derek said, "Hell no. Freaking Casanova over here is dating my mom."

Rossi said, "You know Derek I thought you could be a grown up about this but you are acting like child."

Derek said, "Shut up Rossi. You don't know shit. Plus you are the one that brags about the girls you sleep with.

Rossi said, "I get that. Maybe you are having a hard time trusting me, but what about Penelope? She knew all about you, and yet she still chose to be with you."

Derek's eyes shot to Penelope's.

Rossi said, "You know what when you can get that stick out of your ass and talk to me like your were born with balls, I just going to ignore you."

Derek said, "Leave."

Fran said, "Derek please."

Rossi said, "Fran you know I love you, but if this is going to ruin your day…"

Fran said, "You are staying."

Penelope still standing between the two men felt something warm drip on her arm and saw blood.

Derek looked at Penelope and said, "Baby girl your nose is bleeding."

Rossi said, "Reid wet a rag."Derek led her to a chair."

Penelope said, "Derek my head feels like it is about to pop off."

Fran grabbed her cell phone and called down to the hospital. She found out who was on duty and got Penelope top priority status.

Reid came back with the rag. Derek said, "Baby we are going to the hospital."

Penelope said, "Derek its just a nose bleed."

Rossi said, "He's right. That is a lot of blood."

Frankie tossed Derek his keys since he was the last one that parked blocking in all the other cars.

Derek stood Penelope up.

Then Penelope fainted. Derek and Rossi grabbed her before she could hit the floor.

Sara said, "Oh my God."

Fran said, "Derek pick her up we gotta go now."

Des said, I will drive Reid, Sara, Joey and Frankie."

Rossi looked at Derek and said, "I'm coming with you."

Derek said, "I don't have time to argue just get in the damn SUV."

Derek driving said, "Baby girl wake up for me. Please. "

Fran said, "She will be fine. Just drive like you have some sense."

They reached the hospital Penelope came around but she was still really weak. Derek picked her up and carried her inside. A nurse immediately came over and Derek placed her in a wheel chair.

The nurse said, "Only one of you can come back, well other than Fran."

Derek said, "That'll be me."

The nurse smiled and said, "Derek this must be your Penelope that Fran goes on and on about."

Fran and Rossi sat around the nurse's station. Fran was chewing on her bottom lip in worry.

Rossi said, "Hey, come on now she'll be fine."

Fran said, "I know, it's this whole thing. I mean Derek is so angry."

Rossi said, "Honey he can be angry. But when this is over I will talk to him."

Des, Reid, Frankie, and Joey came up to Fran and said, "How is she?"

Fran said, "She has only been back there for a short time."

Sara said, "Stephen has the boys. They were a little afraid that Miss P was hurt."

Penelope sat on the examination table. Her nose finally stopped bleeding. The nurse checked her vitals and noticed her blood pressure was extremely high.

Derek was pacing back and forth in the room.

Derek pulled Penelope into his arms and said, "Baby girl I was so scared for a minute. Promise me you will be okay."

Penelope smiled and said, "Handsome I will be fine. And thank goodness I got to wash my face."

Derek said, "Hey if I was a zombie I would be all on that."

Penelope laughed.

Penelope scooted over and patted the empty spot on the table. Derek sat down and wrapped his arm around his girl.

Penelope said, "Derek, go easy on Rossi okay."

"Baby girl I know rationally, but Rossi is so different than my dad. I just think about my dad and I get mad. A small part of me thinks that she shouldn't date. But then I know better than that."

Derek threw his hands in the air and said, "P I don't know how to feel."

Penelope said, "Baby boy it is okay that your mom is happy and in love. Give Rossi a chance. It is not like he expects you to call him dad. Sweetheart you are a grown man, let your mother be in love."

Derek smiled and said, "It will be hard but I will try. I know I need to apologize to Rossi."

Penelope said, "See that wasn't so hard."

Derek kissed Penelope.

The doctor walked in and smiled at the couple. Dr. Richards had watched Derek grow up, and was glad to see he was in love.

Dr. Richards pulled up a chair with wheels.

Dr. Richards tossed her salt and pepper pony tail behind her and said, "We went over your lab results. After talking to Fran it seems that stress caused your blood pressure to spike. Now normally this would just happen without a stressor."

Derek asked, "So what is her stressor?"

Dr. Richards said, "A baby."

Derek said, "Well what are we going to….Did you say baby?"

Penelope laughed with tears falling out of her eyes.

Derek said, "We are having a baby."

Dr. Richards nodded the affirmative. Then she said, "I have already called the pharmacy to get your prenatal vitamins and your iron pills."

Dr. Richards handed Penelope her discharge papers, and left the room.

Penelope smiled and said, "Derek Morgan you knocked me up."

Derek said, "Damn right I did."

Penelope said, "Your mom is going to be so happy."

Derek smiled and said, "I know. Come on mama let's get you out of this gown, and out of this damn hospital. I say we tell them when we get home."

"You got it hot stuff."

As always read and review!

We aren't done with Derek and Rossi!
