Chap.28 Meeting the team
After signing her contract, Penlope was led through the building by Hotch. She stared curiously at the dark haired man. He looked rather stern. She was a little intimadated by him.
They finally rached the bullpen. She immediately spotted Derek who was chatting with a pretty brunette and a younger guy. Hotch knocked at someone's door. Sh heard him call the guy Rossi. Then he walked past another office where a blond woman was working.
« JJ conference room. Tell Morgan,Prentiss and Reid. »
Hotch finally walked inside the conference room.
« You can sit down, they won't be long. »
Penelope nodded and sat down relieved. She was a little tired now.
« Hey what's up ? » Derek said entering the room. His eyes lit up when he saw Penelope.
He sat beetween Reid and Prentiss and winked at Garcia.
Penelope smiled inwardly. The man was crazy.
She saw the blond woman and an older man enter. Hotch closed the door .
« Good morning… i'd like to introduce you a new member of our team. Penelope Garcia will be our personal TA. I'm sure she will feel welcomed here, won't she Agent Morgan ? »
Derek blushed deeply, fact that puzzled his teammates.
« hem sure. » he mumbled.
Emily stared at Morgan then she stared at Penelope who was looking at him puzzled.
Emily smiled. « SO here is his friend. She seems nice. »
Penelope got up and noticed their stare towards her legs.
« It's nice to meet you. » she said smiling nervously.
JJ got up and came to shake her hand. The others soon followed and all nervousness left her.
« JJ go and show Garcia her new office. »
« Sur. Come on. »
Penelope smiled and followed her outside.
Penelope was toying with her new computers when Derek entered the office.
« Hey sweetie. You okay ? »
« More than ok ! look at those things ! »
« I never thought you would be dedicated to our team. I'm glad though. »
« It's nice… I have so much to do now. The moving… they want me to begin next week. »
« I'll help you. »
« I think that I'll come back earlier… maybe tomorrow. »
« Ok… We're going to lunch. Do you want to join us ? »
« I don't know… »
« Penelope you'll have to get to know them. They're nice you'll see. »
« Ok… »
Emily smirked when she saw Derek and Penelope walking towards them.
« This is going to be interesting.» She thought.
