What Doesn't Kill Us-Ch 13
Penelope ran into the house and up the stairs but before she could get to the top Derek stopped her by pulling her into his arms, he said, "baby please", she pulled away and said, "don't talk to me, please just don't". He caressed her cheek and said, "but you have to believe me", she said, "believe what"?, he said,
"I didn't kiss her, she kissed me".
She pulled away again and said, "I can't talk, not right now", he said, "please", she said, "I I I need to take a hot shower and go to bed", he said, "I'll go with you". She said, "noooooo, no you won't, not tonight", he said, "I love you", she wiped away a tear that was streaming down her cheek and said, "I need to get away from you for a while".
He sighed and said, "but", she said, "not buts, I just, I just can't look at you right now" she then pushed past him and ran into their room and when he heard her lock the door his heart sank. He sat down on the stairs and wondered what the hell just happened, everything was perfect, they were falling into a good place or so he thought.
Penelope ran into the bathroom and turned the water on she then headed back out and grabbed her night clothes before heading back to the bathroom, as she removed her clothes she wondered how things changed so fast. They were so happy, she loved him and he loved her or at least that's what he said but how could that be true if he was sucking face with Tamara.
Their unwanted guest was sitting behind his screens watching as he was getting everything he wanted, the couple he was watching was falling farther and farther apart and he loved it, he was loving every minute of it. He watched as a broken hearted Mandy slumped down the wall and pulled her legs up to her chest before wrapping her arms around herself and laying her head down on her knees.
He then watched as Andy sat on the stairs for a few minutes before getting up and going back downstairs to lock the doors and turn the lights off before making his way back up the stairs. He couldn't help but smile when he watched Andy check the knob on the door only to find it locked, he then laughed as the broken man then walked into the bedroom at the end of the hall and closed the door.
His attention then went to the bathroom where he saw a beautiful beautiful Mandy as she sat down in the tub, she was so amazing and he couldn't wait to save her from the life of pain and agony she had with Andy. He couldn't wait to feel her skin against his as they made love, he wanted to know what it was like thrusting in and out of that magnificent woman and from the looks of it he was going to get his chance very soon.
Derek stripped down to his boxers and climbed under the covers, he couldn't believe how much things had changed over the past 60 minutes, he loved Penelope and would never cheat on her, especially not with Tamara. He took a deep breath and said to himself, "focus on the case Morgan, you can make things right with your baby girl after it's over".
As he laid there he wondered what the team knew about the new couple and if they were any closer to learning how the unsub was, he yawned and closed his eyes and all he could think of while he drifted off to sleep was making things up to his baby girl. Penelope laid her head back on the back of the tub and closed her eyes as memories of their last interlude filled her mind.
She quickly shook her head and said to herself, "not now, right now you need to focus on this case Garcie", she sat there and thought about the things that her new friend Laura had told her about the poor couple. She took a deep breath and thought, "since I have plans with Laura tomorrow evening maybe I can ask her more questions about her friends and who knows she might be able to give me something that we can use.
She stayed in the water for a few more minutes before getting up and drying off, she then slid into her night shirt and let the water out of the tub before turning around and heading into her bedroom. As she threw the covers back the man that was watching felt himself getting extremely hard because he was able to see under her shirt.
After she laid down and covered up she rolled onto her side and humped up to Dereks pillow, she inhaled his aftershave that was on the pillow and smiled then a few seconds later she closed her eyes and soon drifted off to sleep. The man smiled as he ran his finger of her face on his screen and then he said, "soon Mandy, very very soon".
