Chap.15 We…I need you

A/N: as promised the next chapter! Thank you again for the reviews.

"Coma?" Derek repeated quietly

"Yes. She suffered a great trauma. Maybe this is the way her body need to recover. There's no certainty with coma"

"Maybe…" Derek repeated.

He didn't seem to be there with the others.

Hotch decided to talk, as Morgan seemed elsewhere.

"Can we see her?"

"Ye she'll be moved to ICU in a few minutes."

"Thank you Dr. and the baby?"

"See with neonatology."

"Ok."

***************************************************************************Several minutes later a nurse came to lead them to Penelope's room.

Derek stayed behind so Hotch called him.

"Morgan? Derek?"

"I… I can't right now Hotch. I'll come in a few minutes."

"Go outside and call your mom, this will help you."

"Thank you. Penelope's room?"

"305. You weren't listening were you?"

"No sorry." He replied with a small smile.

"That's ok. Garcia is a fighter…

"Thanks Hotch."

They part in the corridor. Hotch heading towards ICU and Derek going outside.

***************************************************************************

Seeing Penelope like that tore their hearts apart. JJ sat next to her friend and took her hand.

"Oh Penelope…" she whispered tearfully.

Reid patted her shoulder to give her some support.

Rossi and Emily stayed at the opposite side.

There were so many machines connected to her body.

They saw as Hotch entered the room.

"Where's Morgan?" Rossi asked

"He needed some time alone."

They all agreed silently, knowing that it should be very hard for him."

***************************************************************************

"Hello?"

"Mum it's me."

"Derek how are you? You don't sound good."

"Mum it's Penelope…"

"Derek…"

"No mum that that time I was right we found her…"

"Really that's great news isn't it?"

"Well I guess…"

"What's wrong? Is she ok?"

"No she's not… it's a long story…"

"Tell me…."

***************************************************************************

Each member of the team took some time alone with Penelope, speaking to her.

What could be heard in the room were words of love and caring mostly.

Emily: We've missed you so much Penelope, you can't leave us now that we're reunited.

JJ: Please Penelope; I need my other best friend to come back to me.

Rossi: Garcia everybody needs you. You need to fight; your little baby needs you.

Reid: Garcia, Penelope. I consider you as a sister, we're family. You can't go like that…

Hotch:Garcia even since you disappeared some light had left our team, meeting you again was a miracle. I sense that I've failed you somehow. I let you with him… Please fight for your family.

***************************************************************************

Talking to his mother comforted him deeply. He walked back inside and went to see his best friend.

When he entered the room, he smiled lightly to his friends who understanding left him alone with Penelope.

He had so much to say but when he took her hand all he managed to say was:

"Baby Girl We… I need you…"

Then he broke into tears.
