Team Dynamics-Ch 6
As the evening continued the family laughed, ate and plotted on a way to get rid of Barnes, it was getting late and the boys were getting sleepy so Emily said, "Hotch, you and Jack are more than welcome to stay here with me". He smiled and said, "Em you don't have to do that", she said, "I know I don't have to but I want to, I want you and Jack to stay here with me".
He smiled at her and said, "in that case we'd love to", Derek looked at Penelope and said, "and until all of this is over with and my divorce is final me and Hank are going to stay with momma and Dave". Penelope said, "just as long as you know you are more than welcome to stay with me at my apartment".
Derek brought her hand up to his lips and kissed it and said, "thank you goddess, we appreciate that but for now it's safer for you all if I stay with momma and Dave". She leaned in and whispered, "does this mean the wooing is off"?, he gave her his famous smile and said, "not by a long shot, I meant what I said, every word" causing her to smile.
A few hours later everybody was heading out, Fran and Dave took Hank home with them so Derek could take Penelope home so they could have some more time alone. Hotch, Emily and Jack stood waving at their family as they all pulled away from the curb. The plan was for them to all try to meet tomorrow evening at casa Rossi for dinner.
Penelope was going to start looking for something, anything on Linda because the sooner they brought her down the better as far as they were concerned and that way their lives could maybe just maybe get back to normal. Jack was exhausted and excused himself to get ready for bed, Hotch intertwined fingers with Emily and said, "I've missed you Em".
She smiled and said, "and I've missed you, I've missed you both so much, you have no idea how many times I wanted to call you, come to see you", he sighed and said, "believe me I do but until Scratch was taken care of it was to dangerous for us". Emily nodded her head yes in agreement and he said, "but when Morgan called me and told me what was going on we just had to come".
She loosened his tie and said, "sooooooo", he wrapped his arms around her and said, "sooooooo", she said, "Aaron I" and then they heard Jack say, "dadddddd, I'm ready". Hotch said, "coming buddy", he then looked at Emily and said, "I'll be right back", she said, "I'm going to go ahead and turn in", he said, "oh, okay, well we'll talk more tomorrow".
She said, "ohhhhhh no you don't mister" and pulled him closer to her and crashed her lips against his, he deepened the kiss but they pulled apart seconds later when Jack again said, "dadddddddd". He said, "to be continued after I get him to sleep", she winked and said, "count on it", he smiled and said, "coming buddy, coming" and then as he headed upstairs she said, "I'll be waiting on you in my room".
He said, "your room"?, she said, "yes Aaron, I've waited long enough, we've waited long enough, now, tonight it's time for us to make up for all the time we've lost". He smiled at her and said, "I'll be there as soon as I can", she grinned and said, "I'll lock up and then head to bed", he smiled and said, "sounds like a plan Em" as he disappeared at the top of the stairs.
Derek and Penelope pulled up at her apartment, he got out and walked around to the passengers side of the truck and opened her door and said, "allow me gorgeous", she giggled as she slid her hand in his. As they walked toward the door they intertwined fingers, a few minutes later they were standing in front of her door.
He leaned down and said, "I love you", she said, "I love you to", he said, "you have no idea how much I want to stay here with you tonight", she rested her forehead against his and said, "I want that to but". He said, "I know, I know but hopefully it won't be much longer", she sighed and said, "hopefully not because I want you Derek Morgan, I want you more than I ever thought possible".
He smiled and said, "I want you to goddess, I want to hold you, kiss you, make slow passionate love to you alllllllllll night long, learning what you like, learning how we move together and then I want to fall asleep with you wrapped in my arms and wake up the next morning the same way". She kissed his lips and said, "I want that to hotstuff, I want that to".
Penelope bit down on her bottom lip and said, "it's killing me to send you away tonight", he said, "it's killing me to but when we make love I want everything to be perfect and with me still legally tied to Savannah it won't be perfect". She sighed and said, "when we finally do make love Derek I want their to be no doubt that I'm yours and only yours".
Derek smiled at her and said, "same here beautiful, same here, I want me, you and Hank to be a family and when the times right I want you to marry me and then maybe just maybe we can have some beautiful baby girls". She laughed and said, "or some handsome hotstuffs", he laughed and said, "or some handsome hotstuffs" before gently kissing her lips.
A few minutes later he said, "well I better get out of here so you can get some sleep but just know that I'll be thinking and dreaming about you tonight", she said, "and me you sugar shack and me you". He kissed her lips one final time before turning around and said, "good night baby girl", she said, "good night hotstuff, I'll see you tomorrow".
He nodded his head and said, "that you will goddess, that you will" and she stood there watching as he disappeared when the elevator doors closed, she then walked over to the window and watched as he climbed into his truck and pulled away from the curb. It wasn't long before she was laying in bed thinking about him, wondering if he'd made it back to Rossis.
It was then that she got a text saying, "I'm back at mommas, have a good night, sweet dreams beautiful, I love you", she sent him a text back that said, "have a good night and sweet dreams to you to my love". She then laid her cell on the bed beside her and fluffed her pillow up and then laid her head down and closed her eyes and it wasn't long before she was falling asleep after a long and wonderful day.
