What Doesn't Kill Us-Ch 32
The flight home was a long and tiring one and after eating her breakfast Penelope snuggled on the couch with Alexis and it didn't take long for them both to drift off to sleep. Derek pulled his cell off his belt and snapped a few pictures, he couldn't help but smile hoping that one day soon him and his new bride would be welcoming a baby of their own into their world.
After the jet landed Derek gently shook his bride and said, "sweetness we're here, we've landed", she opened and rubbed her eyes and said, "sorry handsome but I guess I more tired than I first thought". He kissed her gently on the lips and said, "when we get home I want my baby girls to lay down and rest and I will fix us some dinner".
Penelope said, "but we are suppose to take Alexis shopping", he said, "wellllll you are on bedrest remember", Fran, JJ and Emily stood up and Fran said, "we can take her shopping". Penelope said, "I can't ask you three to do that", JJ said, "you didn't ask, we volunteered", Dave said, "you know better than to argue with your mother in law".
Derek looked at her and said, "Dave's right sweetness", she blew out a deep breath and said, "is it alright it Fran, JJ and Emily take you shopping"?, she grinned as she nodded her head yes. Penelope said, "just wait until I get better and then you and I will go out shopping and spend the day just you and me", she threw her arms gently around Penelope and said, "really"?, she said, "yes really".
Alexis said, "okayyyyyyyy", Derek laughed and said, "alright then let's get you two home so that you can get some rest", Hotch said, "I think that I'll go home and play some ball with Jack". Reid said, "and I'll play with Henry, I've really missed him while we've been gone", Derek said, "I can't wait for you to meet them, you are going to love them".
As they walked off the jet Penelope held on to her stomach not wanting to jar herself, they walked over to the car and Derek opened Penelopes door and helped her inside while Alexis slid her hand in Frans. Derek said, "here momma let me give you one of my cards", she held up her hand and said, "no sir, this shopping spree is on me and Dave".
He smiled as he tapped the end of Alexis nose and said, "have fun and be good", Alexis laughed and said, "I willlll" as the 4 headed off toward Daves car, all Derek could do was grin and laugh as he watched Alexis skip across the parking lot. After they pulled away with Alexis he got into the car and intertwined fingers with Penelope and said, "I love you sweetness".
Penelope smiled and said, "and I love you handsome", he then started the car and pulled out heading home with his baby girl, a few minutes into the ride he looked over and smiled as he saw her looking out the window. He gently squeezed her hand and said, "I came so close to losing you", she winked at him and said,
"but you didn't, I'm here with you".
He brought her hand to his lips and kissed it and said, "I love you so much", she said, "and I love you and you aren't getting rid of me that easily, you are stuck with me foreverrrrrrr and everrrrr". Derek said, "I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you", she said, "I still can't believe that it's real, we're married".
He gave her his Derek Morgan smile and said, "belive it goddess, you're mine and I'm yours", she sighed happily and said, "I can't wait to get home and lay down in our bed". She said, "wait, where are we going to stay"?, he said, "at our place", she said, "we don't have a place"?, he smiled and said, "but we do beautiful,
we do".
She said, "my things are at my apartment", he said, "nope, they are with my things at our house", she said, "where are we going"?, he said, "just right up here on the left". When they pulled up in front of the house she got out and said, "ohhhhhhh Derek it's amazing", he walked over and intertwined fingers with her and said, "come with me Mrs. Morgan, come and see our new home" as they headed toward their porch.
