Chap.22 Where he wants me to be.
I know last chapter was a little surprising but I needed to get there. Don't worry!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 months, it has been 3 months since they had found Penelope and she didn't talk once about the possibility of coming back in Virginia.
Derek was nervous, he had managed to let some space to Penelope but he was becoming impatient. Why the hell doesn't' she come back to them. They were family. He couldn't live without her… his best friend near him. He needed her to come back so he could protect her and bay Mag.
Since the day she was released from the hospital, Penelope not once called him. It was always him who once a week would call her.
He knew that the baby was allowed to go home 3 weeks ago. Penelope said that Maggie was doing great.
Derek was craving to see the little girl. He didn't think he could love a child so much besides her sister's children.
When he first saw Baby Garcia, he thought that maybe having children wasn't a so bad idea. The problem was that he didn't see that kind of future with Carrie. It was disturbing because he knew that if he loved baby Garcia it was because she was a part of Penelope. And having babies with Penelope…
"Oh oh Morgan. Stop that thoughts!" Derek thought. "Carrie was right, why dreaming about something that would never be?"

"Hotchner."
"Sir it's me Penelope."
"Penelope how are you?"
"I'm fine sir."
"Pen it's Hotch.
"Yes S… Hotch. I just call to inform you that I won't come back to Virginia."
"Penelope?'
'No I've thought about it. It's the best."
"Who for?"
"Us all of us."
"Penelope this is your life, I can't interfere…but you know we're all be sad to not have you here. Don't you want Margaret to know he family?"
"This is unfair Sir. I've never said that I wouldn't come to visit you."
"You know that's not the same. Anyway. Have you talked it with Derek?"
"No why?"
"He's your best friend."
"Well no, I didn't say anything to him or to the others. I would like you to…
"No!"
"You don't want to tell them."
"You have to do it alone."
"Well if I have no choice."
"What are you afraid of Penelope?"
"Excuse me,"
"You know that we love you, you know that HE loves you."
"What are you talking about?"
"Penelope…"
"I know. I just don't know where he wants me to be."
"I'm sure that you know it. You're just afraid of what might happen if you enter in a relationship."
"Sir…"
"Penelope, it's Hotch. I know that so much have changed these past three years. The one thing you need to know is that we want you and little Maggie to be here with us."
"Thank you. I'll think about it."

Hotch sighed after hanging up, he then went to talk with his team in the conference room.
Seeing Morgan so deep in thoughts, he knew that the talk would be difficult.

Penelope hung up and took Maggie in her arms.
"Oh my baby, what should I do?"
