Chap. 18 She What ?

I don't own CM.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"What about Garcia?" Reid asked apprehensively

"She flat lined, she…"

"She what?" Emily cried.

"Please calm down, she flat lined, they succeeded in revive her."

"Oh Hotch! So why did they phoned you. Is there a problem?" Derek said relieved but worried at the same time.

"No she woke up… she woke up that's why they phoned me."

"Oh my god" JJ said throwing her arms around Emily.

"There's no case right now, so I suggest that you take your ready bags and we head to Florida."

"Very good idea Hotch."

"Ok we're leaving in 20 minutes."

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

While walking to the plane Derek called him mum then he called Carrie.

"Carrie sweetheart, the hospital called us, Penelope is awake."

"Oh Good."

"We're going to visit her, I'll come back soon."

"Ok Honey. I hope she's well."

"Thank you. I love you. I'll call you tonight."

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

They had to wait the next morning to visit Penelope. They found her room empty.

Worried Hotch asked a nurse where she was.

"Ms Garcia is in neonatology."

"Thank you."

They found her in a wheelchair, quietly talking to her baby."

"Hey Garcia, shouldn't you be in bed?"

"Hey Genius, I needed to see my little Margaret. I was really eager to see her so the doctor allowed me to come even if I feel weak."

"Genius? Garcia you…"

"Yes I remember all that happened."

"That's great news."

"Well yes. It's just a little overwhelming."

"Surely, How is Margaret doing? By the way it's a beautiful name."

"Thank you JJ, she's doing great, seeing that she didn't have her mum to take care of her…"

"How are you feeling?"

"Tired and a little confused. I'm a mother now."

"You'll do a great mum Pen."

"Thank you Emily, I love my little princess."

She stared a moment at the baby.

"Let's go to my room, I need some rest."

Derek took her wheelchair handles and led her towards the room.

A nurse helped her settle in the bed and changed her IV.

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

"So what now?"

"Well I don' know, I need some time to think about it. I have Maggie now."

"You know that we're here right baby girl?"

"Yes… I jus need some time." She replied smiling.

"Ok Penelope. We'll talk later you seem tired."

"That's the meds. Sorry" she said yawning.

In no time she was asleep and they went to the cafeteria.

Once they were all served they begun to speak.

"So what now?"

"She will need us. She lived something really disturbing…"

"Yes but we can't stay in Florida all the time." Derek said.

"I know Morgan. When she is released if she wants to, she will come back to Virginia.

Morgan you still have he belongings in some premises, right,"

"Yes."

"Good. We'll discuss it with her tomorrow."
