I still don't own CM.

"What's up Hotch?"

"Garcia just called me."

"Is there something wrong?"

"Not exactly, she called me to say that she decided to stay in Florida."

"You got to be kidding Hotch." Derek said standing up.

"No, I talked to her but she has made her decision."

"Hotch…"

"You can take some time off Morgan."

"Thank you." Derek replied. "I'll call you when I get there."

"Good luck." Reid said.

"Thank you kid."

"Morgan"

"Hey baby. It's a long time I haven't heard from you."

Hello mum. I'm sorry I was busy…"

"With Carrie or Penelope."

"Both. Mum you were right I love her."

"I knew it. What now?"

"She decided to stay in Florida."

"Oh."

"I've decided to act on my feelings even if she doesn't share it."

"What are you talking about?"

"When I was a the hospital, Carrie phoned me and her words hurt me."

"What did she say to you?"

"She asked me who I wanted to be with."

And what was your answer?

Flashback (remember chap Baby Garcia)

"Who want you to be with?" Carrie asked

"Well…. I love you but…"

"You love her too."

"I don't know."

"It's quite obvious. But let me say one thing honey. Do you really think Penelope will run into your arms when she'll be released? She had a baby with another man for God's sake!"

"Carrie."

"No let me finish. I can be your future Derek. If you want to give it a try with Penelope, that's ok dump me but if you have some doubts I'll be her for you. I love you."

End of flashback

"Derek baby, why are you still with her."

"I broke up with her mum."

"Oh good she had no dignity."

"Mum, I've loved her."

You had cared for her, if you really loved her, you would still be with her."

"You have a point here."

"Well honey what about Penelope?"

"I'm on my way to the airport. If she doesn't come to me, I'll come to her.

"Good luck son. Love you."

"Thanks you mum. Love you too."

Several hours later in Florida

Penelope was feeding Margaret when she heard a knock at the door.

She got up the baby in her arms and opened the door.

"Derek what are you doing here?" she asked surprised but pleased.

"I couldn't let you go Pen. Baby girl let's give us a try please?"

A/N: So what do you think?
