Team Dynamics-Ch 19
When Oliver was finished explaining everything to Dave he shook his head and said, "why didn't you tell me before Ollie, I could have done something sooner". Oliver said, "she told me that she would kill my wife and sons and I couldn't take any chances, I had to do everything she said or else".
Dave put his hand on his friends shoulder and said, "don't worry, me and my team will make sure that you get your family back safe and sound and Linda Barnes will be going down". Oliver said, "if you can do that for me I'll make sure that your team is never bothered again", Dave smiled and said, "we'll see what we can do", Oliver nodded his head and said, "thanks Dave" as he watched his friend turn around and walk out of his office.
At Emilys place Penelope looked around and saw that Fran and Derek had disappeared, she said, "Em have you seen hotstuff or Fran"?, she said, "now that you mention it I haven't seen them in a while". She said, "I wonder what he's up to"?, Emily said, "speaking of what somebody's been up to, what's up with you and Morgan"?, Penelope sighed and said, "we're finally together, his divorce is final".
Emily hugged her friend and said, "that's great news PG, congratulations", Penelope said, "he well he proposed to me and I accepted", Emily said, "I don't see a ring on your finger". Penelope said, "he told me he didn't have the ring with him, that doesn't matter Em, the point is that we're together now and that's all that matters to us", Emily nodded her head yes in agreement.
Reid, Hotch and JJ were working on getting a strategy planned, for right now they had to hope that the director would tell Dave something, anything they could use against Barnes. Everybody looked up when the door opened and in walked Dave, Fran and Derek, Hotch said, "did you have any luck with the director"?, Dave said, "sure did" as he joined the others in the living room.
Everybody gathered around as he said, "Oliver told me that Linda has his wife and sons and she told him that if he didn't do anything and everything she told him to do that she would kill his family". Emily said, "is that why she's able to get away with everything"?, Dave nodded his head yes.
Luke said, "so what's our plan Rossi"?, Matt said, "is the director willing to let us help"?, Dave said, "he's more than ready for our help so this is my plan". Everybody gathered closer as Dave started filling them in on his idea to get rid of Linda Barnes permanently so they could get back to their jobs with the BAU.
Across town Linda stands knocking on Janies door, she turns around when one of Janies neighbors says, "she's not here", Janie turned around and said, "do you know when she will be back"?, the older woman said, "she won't be". Linda said, "what do you mean she won't be coming back"?, the woman said, "she left with all of her stuff about an hour ago".
Linda said, "any idea where she went"?, the woman shook her head and said, "sorry but no honey", Linda said, "thank you" and then watched as the woman turned around and walked back into her apartment and shut the door. Linda said, "no, no, no Janie, you can't do this to me, they have to pay for what they did to Peter" as she walked away.
When Dave was finished explaining his plan he gently took Penelope by the hand and said, "Penelope Grace Garcia" and then he pulled a box from his pocket and dropped to his knees. She gasped in surprise as he opened the box to reveal a beautiful ring, he then said, "I love you baby girl and I want you to spend the rest of your life with me".
She felt her heart racing as he repeated the words from earlier in the day, "Penelope Grace Garcia will you do me the honors of making me the happiest man in the world and marry me"?, she nodded her head and said, "yes, yes hotstuff". He slid the ring onto her finger and then stood up and claimed her lips with his in a passionate kiss.
They pulled apart to the sound of clapping hands, Derek pulled her back into his arms and sighed happily, Emily walked across the room when she heard somebody knocking on her door. She opened it to reveal a man standing there in a suit, she said, "can I help you"?, the man said, "yes I'm looking for a Derek Morgan, is he here"?, she said, "what do you want with Derek"?, the man said, "I can't tell you mam".
Emily crossed her arms over her chest and said, "then I can't tell you if he's here or not", the man said, "listen mam" and Derek walked over and said, "what's wrong Em"?, the man said, "are you Derek Morgan"?, he said, "I am". The man handed him an envelope and said, "you've been served" and then turned around and walked off.
Penelope said, "what is it"?, Derek opened the envelope and then looked up at his family, Fran said, "what is it baby boy"?, he shook his head and said, "she's suing me, she's suing for full custody of Hank". Penelope wrapped her arms around him and said, "she won't take our son", he kissed the top of her head and said, "I love you", she said, "I love you to" as she hugged him tighter, letting him know that they wouldn't let Savannah get custody of Hank.
