Hunted-Ch 11

The family were still celebrating a few minutes later when the doctor walked into the room, she said, "I hear that congratulations are in order"?, Derek smiled and said, "baby girl and me are getting married". She said, "that's great news", Penelpe said, "thanks doc", Derek said, "we had a little problem with her pain meds a little earlier".

She said, "yeah the nurses contacted me and I immediately changed her meds", she said, "I know that you are all excited but I see three patients that need to get some rest". The three girls said, "awwwwww mannnnn", the doctor laughed and said, "that is if they are still wanting to be released so that they can go home tomorrow morning".

Hotch said, "come on Mrs. Hotchner it's time for us to get you back to your room", Reid said, "yeah you to Mrs. Reid, we need to get you tucked in so that the future Mrs. Morgan can get some rest". Penelope smiled and said, "before you go I want to say something", they all listened as she emotionally said, "you are all amazing amazing people and I love you all so much and I don't know what I would have done if it hadn't been for you".

Derek squeezed her hand and said, "we love you to baby girl", everybody nodded their heads in agreement and said in unison, "we love you to", she smiled and waved as they headed out of the room. The doctor said, "I'll give you two some privacy just let us know if you need anything", he said, "thank you doctor", she took a deep breath and said, "you're very welcome".

When they were alone Derek caressed her cheek and said, "I almost lost you and I don't know what I would have done if I'd lost you", she put her finger over his lips and said, "but I'm fine and safe right here with you". He said, "and I will thank God everyday for the rest of our lives", he then leaned in and claimed her lips with his.

When they pulled apart he said, "can I get you anything"?, she said, "no but you can do something for me", he grinned and said, "anything", she patted the bed beside her and said, "can you lay with me and hold me"?, he stood up and said, "everyday for the rest of my life princess". He watched as she scooted over being careful not to hurt her leg.

Derek laid down beside her on the bed and sighed happily as she rested against him, she laid her head on his chest and said, "I can't believe what's happened to us over the past 24 hours". He kissed the top of her head and said, "me either goddess, me either", she looked up at him and said, "you are the best thing that has ever happened to me".

Derek grinned at her and said, "and you my sweet sweet beautiful bride to be are the other part of my heart and I plan to show you everyday just how much you mean to me". She winked at him and said, "I'm going to hold you to that", he kissed the end of her nose and said, "I love you", she said, "and I love you and nothing or nobody is ever gonna change that".

She laid her head down on his chest and rested her hand in his as she closed her eyes, Derek loved holding her in his arms, he had dreamed of being with her but the time was never right for them, well until now. As they laid there he couldn't help but smile knowing that soon Penelope, his baby girl was going to be his wife and hopefully the mother to a house filled with their beautiful babies.

Meanwhile at the end of town Sam pulls up at an abandoned house, he gets out and stumbles to the side of the house and knocks, after about a minute the door opens and he heads inside. He looks up and says, "I hate to bother ya but I need some help", the man grins and says, "we's family and family helps family", he then helped Sam over to the table and helped him lay down.

The man listened as Sam filled him in on what had happened and while he was listening he had taken several bullets out and dropped them in the pan that was beside the table. When the man was done Sam said, "thanks cuz", he said, "any time", Sam said, "do you think that I can sleep fer a little while"?, he nodded his head and said, "sure can and when ya get up I fix us somein to eat".

Sam smiled and nodded his head as he pulled the blanket up over himself and closed his eyes, as he drifted off to sleep he couldn't help but think of one thing and that was seeking revenge on the pigs that had killed one of his brothers and shot him and God only knew what happened to Liam. Before he fell asleep he said, "don't you worry brother they'll pay, they'll pay" and then his eyes closed and it wasn't long until he had fallen asleep.
