Do I Know You-Ch 41
Penelope laid in the hospital for almost 2 weeks before she was able to go home, the doctor had agreed to let her go home but put her on complete bed rest and the days turned to weeks and the weeks to months and now Penelope was almost 7 1/2 months along. The doctor would come to the house and check on her a couple of times a week and she was really pleased with the progress Penelope and the baby were making.
Penelope rubbed her growing belly and said, "hello in there little one, I know it isn't your fault baby, momma loves you so much", she looked up to see Derek standing in the door. Derek smiled at her and said, "how are you and the little one doing baby girl"?, she laughed and said, "we're starving".
He said, "wellllllll we can't have that", she said, "we, who's we"?, he stepped back and said, "come on in girls", Penelope looked up to see JJ, Emily, Fran, Sarah, Desi and Bella coming into the room. She smiled and said, "what's all this"?, JJ said, "welllll we thought that since you couldn't get out of bed for a baby shower that we would bring the baby shower to you in the bed".
Fran and Emily carried the food over and put it on the dresser and Fran said, "and of course we made food, lots and lots of food", she clapped her hands and said, "thanks ladies I really needed this right now". JJ hugged her friend and said, "how about we eat first and then we open all of these gifts"?, she smiled and said, "sounds good to me Jayje".
Derek kissed his wife gently on the lips and said, "you have fun with the girls and I'm gonna go out for lunch with the guys", she winked at him and said, "I love you Mr. Morgan". Derek grinned and said, "I love you to Mrs. Morgan", he rubbed her stomach and said, "and daddy loves you to baby Morgan".
He kissed Bella on the cheek and said, "daddy loves you princess", she laughed and said, "lub you to daddy", they all waved at him as he walked out of the room to join the rest of the boys downstairs. JJ smiled and said, "we have ham, turkey and combination sandwiches, chips, fresh fruit cake and ice cream".
Penelope smiled and said, "awwww you guys got me a cake, thank you", Fran smiled and said, "I made you a double chocolate cake with your favorite chocolate icing". She licked her lips and said, "I'm starving", JJ said, "how about I fix you a plate so you can get started", she nodded her head and said, "yes please".
Derek and the rest of the men were walking out the door talking when they heard the girls laughing and talking upstairs, Derek looked up and said, "she needed this today". Reid grinned and said, "I think JJ and Emily needed it as bad as Garcia did", Hotch said, "how is she really doing"?, he took a deep breath and said, "she is doing a lot better, she is happy with her decision to wait on the paternity test".
Dave said, "how are you holding up"?, he rubbed his hand over the top of his head and said, "I love this baby no matter who the daddy is, he or she is part of my baby girl and that is all that matters". Hotch patted him on the shoulder and said, "you are a good man Derek Morgan", he laughed and said, "yeah, yeah, now how about we go eat some pizza and shoot some pool"?, the men all laughed and nodded their heads in agreement as they headed out the door.
About an hour later the girls were putting the gifts on the bed for Penelope to open, JJ said, "since we don't know if the baby is a boy or a girl we all got stuff that could be for either sex". When the first box was put in front of her JJ said, "this is from Spence, Henry and Me", she ripped the paper off and said, "ohhhhh Jayje I love it".
JJ said, "I saw it and said to Spence we have to get this for Garcie", the picture on the front is how it looks with everything put on it, it comes with attachments to make it a stroller/carseat/booster seat when he or she gets older". Penelope hugged her friend and said, "ohhhhhh I love it thank you so so much".
JJ laughed and said, "that is the first of several gifts from us, we are gonna spoil this baby", everybody laughed and Desi and Sarah said in unison, "yes we are". Penelope laughed and talked with everybody as she opened gift after gift, Bella smiled as she took a bite of her carrot and said, "dat is pwetty momma".
Penelope tapped the end of her nose and said, "yes it is do you think your brother or sister will like it"?, Bella looked up at her and said, "uh huh momma". Fran grinned and said, "the swing can also be used as a bouncy chair", Penelope said, "ohhhhh the baby will love that, thank you so much Fran".
Derek looked at Reid and said, "you are goin down Pretty Boy", he laughed and said, "yeah yeah I've heard it all before", Derek said, "why don't you rack em up and I'll be right back". Reid started getting the table ready as he watched Derek head toward the bathroom, Reid looked at Hotch and said, "I bet he is gonna call Penelope while he is in there", Hotch and Dave laughed and nodded their heads in agreement as they took a sip of their drinks.
Derek had his back to the door and he felt two arms wrap around his waist, he turned around and saw a beautiful woman standing there, she pushed him against the wall and said, "I want you and I want you now". The next thing he knew she was unzipping his pants as she crashed her mouth to his.
