Once Upon A Straight Tequila Night

Chapter 7 - Toby Gets Caught

Derek's POV

I am sitting in Penelope's hospital room holding a bedside vigil while the rest of the team is out trying to find the bastard that did this to my Baby Girl, I have not left her bedside unless there has been a doctor, nurse or one of the team with her, Penelope's doctor comes into check on her wounds so I take the chance to leave the room to go and get a cup of coffee and I also call Hotch to get an update on the case.

I pull my cell phone out of my pocket and dial Hotch's number and on the third ring he picks up and says"Hotchner" I say "hey Hotch it's me, I am just calling to find out what is happening with catching this prick" Hotch replied "well Morgan we have a tech analyst going through the surveillance footage from Garcia's apartment and she managed to get a partial license plate number but it turned out to be bogus plates and we have circulated his picture around to other police stations as well bus stations, train stations, airports and motels so hopeful we will get a hit on something soon" I let out a frustrated sigh before saying "ok well what if we can't find him Hotch I just want my Baby Girl to feel safe when she gets released from the hospital."

I hear Reid in the background telling Hotch something but i can't quite make out what it is so I ask "hey Hotch what as that Reid was just telling you" he replied "Reid just informed me that he received a phone call from a motel manager just on the outskirt of town saying that she had a man check in about an hour ago who was acting strange but then she received the fax of the picture from the apartment surveillance footage and she recognized him so then she went back in her surveillance footage and noticed that when he arrived he took his time to change the license plates on the car before going to check-in obviously trying to hide from all law enforcement, we are on our way to the motel now so hopefully we will have this prick in custody shortly I will keep you informed and then send JJ to take over so that you can go home take a shower and then I will give you full rein on interrogating him, no cameras, no witnesses but me."

Finally making my way back to my Baby Girls room I wait just outside while the doctor is finishing off his examination I can't help but smile at the thought of having free rein over this prick's interrogation because by the time I am finished with him he will regret the day he was born, I see the doctor pull the curtain back and exit the room so I walk in and sit down beside her I pick up her hand and bring it to my lips and give it a gentle kiss, Penelope opens her eyes and smiles at me and I can't help but smile back she then asks "have they found him yet" I simply nod before say "yes the team is on their way to a motel on the outskirts of town to pick him up" she then says "how did they find him" I reply "Hotch faxed a copy of his photo to police stations, bus stations, airports and motels so when he checked in to the motel the manager she recognized him and the called saying that after going back through her surveillance footage she noticed that he had changed the license plates on the car and she also noticed that he was acting strangely."

Penelope's POV

I can't believe that bastard he shot me and then took off and tried to hide from all forms of law enforcement but unfortunately he chose a motel that has a manager that is a law abiding citizen and dropped him in the shit, now I can rest easy and remain safe and I know that while ever I have my Hot Stuff beside me the nightmares will remain at bay but I also know that it will take me a long time to get over the whole situation.

After a while JJ arrives to sit with me while Derek goes home to have a shower before he has to go into the office, before Derek leaves he leans over and kisses me on the cheek and I get a tingling feeling that runs through my body just at the feel of his lips on my skin he then leaves the room leaving JJ and I to talk.

JJ looks at me with a knowing smirk on her face and I know that she is thinking about the kiss that Derek just gave me I look at her and say "what are you smirking at Jayje" she shrugs her before saying "ohhh I don't know, what was with that kiss that he just gave you" I smile and and touch my hand to the spot where he kissed me before I say "I know what you are thinking Jayje but there was nothing meant by that kiss we are just friends, although he did tell me he loves me so I don't know what to think about anything at the moment."

Derek's POV

I can't believe I just kissed my Baby Girl and the sparks that raan through my body at the feel of her soft alabaster skin against my lips was unbelievable, I mean I have kissed her before but for some reason this time there was something much more about it I don't know if it is because I have made my feelings clear to her or whether it is because I have finally come to my senses and worked out how I feel about her.

At the Motel on the Outskirts of Town (Hotch's POV)

Arriving at the motel Reid and I made our way to the office to check the surveillance footage that the manager had just to make sure it was the right person we were after and when we informed her of why we were after him she gladly gave us the room key and showed us where to go, we knocked on the door and when he didn't answer I put the key in the lock and carefully opened the as we were unprepared of what we might find on the other side of the door we had our guns at the ready as we entered, we cleared the room area and made our towards the bathroom the door is closed and I can hear the shower running so I use a hand signal to instruct Reid to fall back, Reid and I wait until he comes out of the bathroom and when he see us he goes for the bedside table to retrieve his gun but he doesn't get that far as I launch myself at him and tackle him to the ground I yank his arms behind his back and handcuff him.

I haul him to his feet and sit him on the bed and begin to go through the room and bagging everything that could be important to the case against him, I pick up his suitcase and begin going through that when I come across something that definitely doesn't belong to him I open it and find Penelope's driver's license I bagged it up and then gathered all of his items and packed then in the suitcase before taking it out to the SUV once everything has been bagged and tagged and put in the SUV I haul this prick's ass out of the room and throwing in the backseat of the SUV and make our way back to the office to process the bastard .

At Derek's House

I get home and let Clooney out for a run while I go and take a quick shower and all I can think about is Penelope which is making my body react in a way that I never would have thought as I strip of my clothes and head to the bathroom and turn on the shower and get in asI let the water cascade over my body I get a little soap and begin to wash my body when I get to my rock hard dick I can't help myself I lean up against the shower wall while all the images of my Baby Girl come to mind as I wrap my hand around my dick and begin to jerk off until I blow my load all over the glass door again I wash myself off and get out and dry off before getting dressed, I head back downstairs and let Clooney back in and then head off to the office.

Just as I arrive at the office I see the black work SUV pull into the car park and park near the door so that they can get the bastard out of the SUV and into the elevator, when I see Toby get out of the SUV with Reid I can't control my anger and run towards them my fists balled up at my sides and when I reach where Reid and Toby are standing I step in front of Toby and grab him by the scruff of the neck and say "what in the hell were you thinking, why on earth would you shot your friend and then leave her there to die you low life piece of shit" Toby just laughs in my face and I have to hold my urge to punch him in the face again.

Finally Hotch joins us and we all head up in the elevator and get off on the BAU floor and take this son of a bitch into an interrogation room where Hotch tells Reid to go and start the paperwork on the arrest while Hotch and I interrogate him, Hotch turns off all the cameras in the interrogation room while I take him and sit him in a chair soon Hotch joins me and we both start to interrogate him but we got nothing out of him he is just sitting there laughing, I have so much rage running through my system right now that I throw the table across the room and launch myself at him knocking his chair over as I start punching into him and Hotch is just standing there watching me kick his ass by the time I had finished with Toby he had cuts and bruising on his face and probably a few broken bones in his face and a few broken ribs, finally I gave up when all the rage had gone.
