Summer Rental-Ch 17

The next few days flew by and soon Melody was well and ready to head home, Derek walked into the room and plopped down on the bed beside her and said, "are you ready to head home princess"?, she wrapped her arms around his neck and said, "uh huh daddy, me weadyyyyyyy". Penelope walked in from the bathroom and said,
"you're ready for what baby girl"?, she said, "to go home momma, to go homeeeeeeeeee".

Derek said, "we can head home in a few minutes, the only thing we are waiting on is your release papers", she looked at him and said, "what dat daddy"?, he said, "they are papers that says that the doctor is letting you go home". She smiled and said, "when tan me go home daddy"?, the doctor walked into the room and said, "how about now"?, she clapped her hands and said, "yayyyyyyyyy".

Penelope leaned in and whispered to Derek, "don't forget the team is at the house for the surprise party", he kissed her gently on the lips and said, "I didn't forget sweetness". The doctor handed Derek the release papers and said, "I would still like for her to take it easy for the next few days and she needs to finish all of her meds".

Penelope said, "don't worry she will do both doctor", Derek nodded his head and said, "count on it", he kissed Penelope on the lips and said, "I'm going to go bring the car around and I'll see you two beautiful ladies outside". Melody waved at Derek and said, "byeeeeeeee daddy", he waved at her and said, "bye princess,
daddy will see you and mommy in a few minutes".

Melody nodded her head and said, "tayyyyyyyyy daddy", Derek grinned and said, "thanks for everything doc", she said, "you are all very welcome, I'm just glad that she's doing well enough to go home". Penelope watched Derek turn and head out of the room before saying, "us to doctor, us to", she squatted down in front of her patient and said, "you have fun but listen to mommy and daddy okay"?, she nodded her head and said, "tayyyyy".

When they walked out of the hospital a few minutes later Derek got out of the car and walked around and lifted his daughter out of the wheelchair and put her into the back seat. He then opened Penelopes door and kissed her gently on the lips and said, "your carriage awaits madam", she wiggled her eyebrows and said,
"since Spence and JJ will be going out tonight after th Y, I was thinking that maybe you would like to spend the night with me".

He smiled and said, "more than you know beautiful, more than you know", she winked at him and said, "well then my love, what are we waiting on", she got into the car and was buckling up as Derke climbed in behind the drivers side of the car. Penelope looked over her shoulder and said, "are you doing okay back there sweetpea"?, she laughed and said, "uh huh momma".

Derek put the car in drive and pulled away from the hospital, the ride back to Penelopes place didn't take long and soon they were pulling up in front of her house. Derek got out of the car and walked around to the passengers side and helped Melody out of the car and then he turned around to see the happy smiling face of Penelope.

He kissed her lips gently and said, "you are so beautiful", she smiled and said, "you aren't so bad yourself hot chocolate", he laughed and said, "woman stop that". She laughed and said, "sorry sir, I'll be good", she leaned in and whispered, "well until the party's over and we are alone", he kissed her lips and said, "that's my girl".

Penelope smiled and said, "always have been and always will be", they then intertwined fingers as they made their way toward the front door, when they climbed up on the porch Derek opened the door and they stepped inside. Melody started laughing and clapping her hands when everybody said, "SURPRISEEEEE", Reid picked up the little girl and said, "welcome home sweetie".

Melody wrapped her arms around Reids neck and said, "me lub you unca weed", he smiled and said, "and I love you to princess", Dererk looked at Reid and said,
"are the surprises here"?, he said, "yep they are waiting in the kitchen". He said, "baby, daddy has some people that he would like for you to mee", her little eyes got huge and she said, "weally"? he laughed and said, "yes really".

Melody watched as three women walked into the room, he said, "baby this is my momma, your grandma Fran Morgan and these are my sisters and your aunts this is Sarah and Desiree". Fran said, "ohhhhhh she's gorgeous", Melody wrapped her arms around Frans neck and said, "what me tall you"?, Fran said, "you can call me nana or grandma or whatever you want to call me".

Melody thought for a few seconds and said, "me tall you gwanma Fran", Fran kissed the little girl and said, "that's fine with me" and Derek and Penelope watched with the rest of their family as the party continued.
