Lyric Of Love-Ch 14

When Penelope and JJ got to the hospital the others were still standing outside in the waiting room, Penelope said, "have they told you anything about hotstuff yet"?, Fran shook her head and said, "nothing yet". Penelope said, "you don't think he's"?, Fran said, "no honey, you can't think that way, we have to stay positive".

She blew out a deep breath and nodded her head yes in agreement, JJ said, "I'm sure they'll be out soon to tell us something", she then reached over and put her hand in Penelopes. Just then Reid walked into the ER and walked over to them and said, "what have you found out"?, JJ said, "nothing yet" as she kissed her husband on the lips.

Reid said, "Henry is with Alana", Penelope said, "who's Alana"?, Reid said, "she's Henrys nanny, she's awesome with him", Penelope smiled and said, "my fairy god son deserves only the best for sure" causing everybody to smile. Reid looked over his shoulder and saw the doctor walking over to them and Chad said, "sorry that it took me so long but I wanted to do one more check on him before I came out".

Fran said, "how is my son"?, the doctor said, "it was a rough surgery and he flat lined on us a couple of times but we were able to get him back", Penelope said, "how much damage was done by the bullet"?, Chad said, "well we had to remove his spleen but he can live a long and happy life without it". Dave said, "what about the nicked liver"?, Chad said, "we were able to stop the bleeding and that situation seems to be under control".

Penelope said, "what aren't you telling us"?, Chad sighed and said, "when the bullet bounced around it hit a few ribs and cracked them causing one of the splinters to go into one of Dereks lungs". Fran said, "is he going to be alright"?, the doctor said, "right now he's being closely monitored and is on the ventilator to help with his breathing".

Dave said, "when can we see him"?, Chad said, "they are moving him into his room right now so if you will follow me I'll take you to him", everybody nodded their heads yes in agreement as they followed the doctor up the corridor. They stopped outside his door and Chad said, "he's hooked up to several machines, one for his vitals, his heart monitor and the vent so you're going to be hearing a lot of noises once you step inside".

Hotch said, "we believe that Dereks life is still in danger so we'll be staying to keep a close eye on him", Chad said, "not a problem, I'll notify the nurses so that they'll know you're going to be staying with him". He then pushed the door open and they stepped inside, when Penelope saw the man of her dreams laying in that bed she said, "oh hotstuff" as she took her hand in his.

She said, "I'm here, we're all here and we love you, please don't leave us, please fight with all you have in you to come back to us", Fran said, "it's me baby boy, listen to Penelope, we need you to fight to come back to us". Chad said, "we'll be coming in every few minutes just to check and make sure that everything is okay but if you need something or something changes please let us know", Fran said, "we will" as they then watched Chad walk out into the hall, closing the door behind him.
