Do I Know You-Ch 12
Penelope was wiping her eyes and didn't see Derek standing there until she bumped into him, she looked up and said, "I'm I'm sorry", he put his hand on her cheek and said, "what did he say to you goddess"?, she looked at him and said, "no no nothing can we go"?, he wiped away her tears and said, "you can trust me, I will never hurt you, I love you Penelope".
She stepped back and said, "I don't know you, I have no memories of you, none at all, I know that you say you love me but I", he said, "I get it Penelope, I really do and I won't do anything to make you think I am trying to push you for something you aren't ready for". He smiled at her and said, "I love you and Bella with all my heart and I will never give up on us, never".
She looked across the room and saw JJ and Emily and ran toward them leaving behind her a heartbroken Derek Morgan, he dropped his head as he watched her talking to the girls. Derek was jealous, yes jealous, she didn't know JJ and Emily either but she felt safe with them and he knew that he would need to give her time but damnit he wanted to wrap his arms around her and tell her everything would be alright but right now he knew that things were far from alright.
Hotch watched as a heartbroken Morgan walked over and sat down beside Reid, he felt so bad for both of them, they had been apart for four years and he knew that after everything Penelope had been through that it would be a while before she would feel safe again. Dave looked up at him and said, "are you ready to head home"?, he smiled and said, "I am more than ready Dave, more than ready".
The girls decided to ride together in one SUV and the men in another so that the girls could try to find out what Thomas said to Penelope in the interrogation room. Reid looked across the seat at Derek and said, "I'm sorry Derek", he looked at Spencer and said, "you don't have anything to be sorry for Pretty Boy".
He sighed and said, "I know that you wanted to go in the interrogation room again and rip his head off and stomp on it", Derek looked at him and said, "I did, hell I still do, he kept my wife and Bellas mother away from us both for 4 years, 4 years Spencer and that sick son of a bitch needs to pay for what he did".
Hotch said, "don't worry he will pay, he will be spending the rest of his life behind bars", Derek smiled and said, "good, because if I ever see him again Hotch I will kill his sorry ass". Dave said, "did Penelope tell you anything that Thomas said to her"?, he shook his head and said, "no, not a thing, I am hoping that the girls have better luck".
Reid said, "she feels safer right now with the girls, I know that she doesn't remember any of us but on some level she feels close and safe with the girls but she will feel safe with you again Derek, she will, just don't give up hope". He smiled at Reid and said, "I will never give up hope on my baby girl, not ever".
JJ looked at Penelope an said, "ok Garcie what happened when you went in to talk to Thomas"?, she said, "he was talking about how he knew that you were all looking for me the entire time. He talked about everything from our first time together to and definitely including if I was carrying his child".
Emily said, "what did you tell him about"?, she smiled and said, "I happily told him that I wasn't pregnant and trustttttt me he wasn't happy in the least". JJ said, "how often did the two of you have sex without protection"?, she said, "he would rarely use protection and he wouldn't let me use it, said it wasn't natural especially since we were trying to have a baby".
Emily said, "how long were you trying to have a baby"?, she looked down at the floor and said, "for the last 2 years, at first he wasn't sure that he wanted another baby but then he decided out of the blue that he wanted a house filled with babies soooooo he spent hours on top of hours trying to get me pregnant and everytime after he would finish I would go straight and take a bath or shower, because the thoughts of having a baby with him made me sick at my stomach".
JJ said, "did Derek show you a picture of Bella"?, she smiled and said, "yes he did and she is beautiful", Emily said, "she is so much like you PG, you can definitely tell that she is your daughter". Penelope said, "what if I never remember her, what if I never remember you, any of you or my life with Derek"?, JJ hugged her gently and said, "we will always be here for you Penelope, always". As they pulled up at the jet Emily said, "what are you going to do when you get back to Virginia"?, she rubbed her temples and said, "I don't have a clue, no clue at all". They walked onto the jet and her heart started beating faster and faster as she watched Derek walk onto the plane and sit down in the back of the jet and put his earphones on.
She could tell that he was heartbroken and it hurt her so bad to know that she was one of the reasons that he was hurting, she laid her head back against the seat and closed her eyes and before she knew it she found herself drifting off to sleep.
