Switched At Birth-Ch 13
A few days later Jamie and Fran were released and were currently at casa Morgan for a big welcome home party for Fran, Jamie and Maddie. Penelope was relieved that her daughter and mother in law had finally been released to go home, everybody was exhausted and more than ready to go home.
Derek and Penelope never left the hospital, they stayed by their daughter and momma's side, they were constantly making plans of what to do when Veronica showed her cards and arranged for a judge to hear her case on getting custody of Jamie.
Everybody was laughing, talking and eating while they spent time relaxing, they were passing Jamie and Maddie around as everybody got their turns at holding the adorable little angels. Derek wrapped his arm around his wife and said, "it's good to be home isn't it sweetness"?, she nodded her head and said, "it is hotstuff, it is".
Fran was surrounded by Dave and her daughters and was holding one of her granddaughters, she said, "you are so beautiful little one, so so beautiful" before she kissed the little girl on the forehead. Dave said, "both of our little angels are blessings, total and complete blessings".
Sarah said, "I still can't believe that Jamie isn't really Dereks", Desi said, "me either, how did this happen"?, Dave said, "right now agents and our analysts are trying to recover footage from the nursery the night that Maddie and Jamie were born".
Fran looked up as he said, "when we find out what happened, we'll be able to figure out if what happened was accidental or done on purpose". Sarah said, "do you think that somebody purposely did this to them"?, Dave said, "the world is full of sick people Sarah, anything is possible", Fran nodded her head and said, "sad but true Dave, sad but true".
Penelope was currently holding Maddie and she said, "I still can't believe all of this is happening to us, to our babies", Derek said, "me either baby girl but I promise you that we will find out what happened and we make whoever did this pay".
She looked at him and said, "we can't lose our baby Derek, we just can't", he kissed her temple and said, "we won't lose her goddess and that's a promise". A small smile graced Penelopes lips and Derek leaned in and gently kissed her and he reluctantly pulled apart when he heard the doorbell.
He walked across the room and opened the door and said, "may I help you"?, the man said, "are you Derek Morgan"?, he said, "I am". He handed Derek an envelope and said, "you've been served sir" and then Derek watched as the man walked away.
He then stepped back inside and closed the door, Hotch walked over and said, "what's wrong"?, Derek opened the envelope and said, "she's done it, Veronica's done it". Everybodys attention then turned to Derek and he looked at his wife and said, "we're to report to court Friday morning at 9:00".
Penelope took a deep breath and said, "now it begins" as she looked across the room at Jamie who was safely in the loving arms of her grandma. Hotch put his hand on Dereks shoulder and said, "we're ready for this Derek and come Friday morning Veronica is in for the fight of her life", Derek nodded his head and said, "that she is man, that she is".
