Man Of Honor-Ch 26

Derek and Penelope smiled at Hotch and Penelope said, "are you sure bossman"?, he nodded his head and said, "positive Penelope, it's the best way to do so that he can't say you're not cooperating". Derek gently squeezed his wifes hand and said, "everything will be okay sweetness, everything is going to be just fine" and she grinned.

Hotch stood up and said, "well I'll get the paperwork started and I'll make sure you and Anthonys attorney both get copies", Penelope nodded her head and said, "thanks for everything Hotch". He smiled and said, "you're very welcome Garcia" as he smiled and then headed across the room and out the Morgans front door.

Penelope sighed and said, "this can't be over fast enough for me", Derek kissed her temple and said, "it can't for me either baby girl' as he held her close. She bit down on her bottom lip and said, "sooooo are you ready for Savannahs doctor appointment in the morning"?, he said, "as ready as I'm ever gonna be I guess".

Derek said, "I think she's up to something", Penelope said, "me to, she's been to calm, well until today, until she found out that we are married", he nodded his head yes in agreement. She said, "their is something bothering me about this whole Savannah wanting you at the doctors gir appointment tomorrow thing".

She blew out a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry angel fish, I don't want to be that girl", he looked at her and said, "that girl"?, she said, "yeah the jealous wife". Derek kissed her lips and said, "this whole situation is just wrong, you and I belong together and this little angel here is ours, no matter what the blood results say".

Penelope smiled and said, "I love you Derek Michael Morgan", he slid his hand onto her stomach and said, "and I love you Penelope Grace Garcia Morgan and this little one right here, I always have and I always will". She put her hand on his and said, "and we love you to sugar shack, don't we little one"? as she happily smiled at her husband.

Across town Anthony smiles at Chad and says, "I think that went well don't you"?, Chad nodded his head and said, "I do, you let her know really fast that you wanted custody of your child". He then looked at his friend and said, "but what if this baby isn't yours, what if he or she belongs to her husband"?, Anthony shook his head and said, "that's not possible, I took steps to make sure".

Chad said, "you took steps, just what do you mean you took steps"?, Anthony motioned for Chad to sit down, he sat down across from his lawyer/friend and blew out a deep breath as he readied to speak. He said, "I love Penelope and I have since the first time I saw her, we're perfect together, we're meant to be together".

He continued by saying, "we started talking about having kids and the more we started talking the more I wanted to have a child, a child with her, one that would tie us together forever". Chad said, "soooooo what did you do"?, he said, "I had a friend give me some medication that would increase her odds to get pregnant".

Chad said, "soooooooo you have been slipping her fertility drugs"?, Anthony nodded his head and said, "I have", Chad said, "and she didn't know this I take it"?, Anthony shook his head and said, "nope". Chad said, "Anthony if this gets out if this child is yours you will lose custody or any chance of custody, you know that right".

Anthony said, "I'm not going to lose my child", Chad said, "how many times did you slip her the drugs"?, Chad said, "she'd been taking the drugs for a few months before we got engaged". Chad said, "and how many times did you and Penelope have sex"?, Anthony smiled and said, "we had sex almost every night and if I was going to be out of town for the night I'd surprise her with an early lunch and well, I'm sure I don't have to tell you what we did now do I"?.

Chad said, "and she's almost 3 months along"?, Anthony nodded his head and said, "that's right and we were together the night before she was with Derek". Chad said, "well that does increase your odds but their is always that chance that you're not the father, you know that right"?, Anthony sighed and said, "I know but that's not the fact here".

Chad said, "I like your attitude about that but now we need to take steps to get an amniocentesis performed", Anthony nodded his head and said, "I agree Chad, I totally agree". Anthony stood up and walked across the room, he turned and looked at his attorney and said, "so now we need to meet with Penelope, Derek and her doctor and see what she thinks about getting the amnio and when", Chad nodded his head in agreement and said, "and the sooner the better" before grabbing his briefcase and heading out of Anthonys office.

Anthony then walked over and sat down behind his desk as thoughts of the child, his child growing inside Penelope filled his mind, causing him to smile and dream of a future with the blond bombshell and their child.
