Surprise Baby Girl-Ch 8

After getting some time with Penelope Hank finally went to sleep, she leaned over and kissed him on the cheek and said, "good night little prince", she then glanced over her shoulder and said, "good night hotstuff". Derek said, "good night baby girl", he then watched as she walked toward the door, she stopped in the hall and said,
"I I I'm glad that you're home".

A huge smile graced his lips and he whispered, "I love you and I will win you back, I will", he then looked down at his son and said, "daddy loves you and I will make this right, I promise" before turning around and walking across the hall to his room. He plopped down on the bed and sighed wondering just what Savannah had up her sleeve.

Meanwhile across town Savannah collapses on the bed beside the man she met a few hours earlier in the bar, she said, "thanks, I needed that", he ran his hand up and down her back and said, "you're a wildcat aren't you"?, she quickly straddled his waist and said, "you have no idea" as she continued to get once again what she wanted from the strange man that was sharing her bed for the night.

Derek tossed and turned most of the night before finally drifting off to sleep at dawn, he napped for a couple of hours before he woke up to the sound of Penelope and Hank in the monitor. As he laid there he couldn't help but smile, he was back where he belonged and now what he needed to do was divorce Savannah and get full custody of his son and then fight like he's never fought before to win his baby girl back.

Derek quickly got dressed and by the time he got to the hall he could hear Penelope talking to Hank downstairs, he smiled as he made his way down the stairs and into the kitchen. Penelope looked up and said, "morning hotstuff", he said, "morning sweetness, how did you sleep"?, she blew out a deep breath and said, "I didn't, I was thinking all night".

He walked over and kissed Hank on the top of the head and said, "are you being a good boy"?, Penelope said, "of course he is, he's with me", Hank clapped his hands and squealed as he reached down and got a bite of egg and put it into his mouth. Derek got a cup of coffee and joined her at the table and said, "baby girl we need to continue or conversation from lastnight".

She said, "I agree", he took a sip of coffee and said, "there wasn't a day that went by that I didn't think about you and miss you so so much", she laughed and said, "it didn't seem like that here". He said, "I know that I should have called but I was trying to make my marriage work but I just couldn't", Penelope said, "I missed you so much Derek, I needed you so many times".

He said, "why didn't you call me"?, she said, "I did", he said, "you what"?, she nodded her head and said, "I did call you a few times as a matter of fact", he said,
"baby I never got any calls". She said, "I talked to Savannah when I called and she said that she would have you call me back and I waited and waited but you never called me back".

Derek said, "she never told me that you called, if she would have told me I would have called you back", she said, "well let's not worry about that now", he took a deep breath and said, "I love you Penelope, you are my heart, you and Hank are my world". She said, "Derek I can't do this right now", he said, "okay okay, how about I continue"?, she nodded her head yes and sat there looking him up in the face as he readied to speak.

Derek said, "I was so alone in Florida and if it hadn't been for Hank I don't know what I would have done", she bit down on her bottom lip as he said, "I thought of you everyday and dreamed of you everynight". She said, "yo yo you dreamed about me"? he said, "of course I did", he said, "I dreamed of holding you in my arms and of kissing those perfect lips and I can't tell you how many times I called out your name in my sleep".

She said, "please tell me that Savananh didn't hear you"?, he said, "no such luck, she would take great pleasure in telling me about it when I woke up and let's just say that she wasn't happy". Penelope looked down at the floor and said, "what did she say?, he said, "she called you everything from a cow to a homewrecker and told me that if I wanted to be able to see Hank that I had better stay away from you".

Penelope said, "so that's why you didn't call or visit"?, he nodded his head yes and said, "it was baby girl but after I caught her cheating this last time I packed up my son and headed back home to the woman that I have always loved, to you sweetness, to you". He then took her hand in his and said, "it's always been you, it always has and it always will".

Derek said, "I just want a little more time alone with you and Hank before the rest of the team knows I'm home soooooo I was thinking that maybe we could" and he was cut off by her cell ringing. She looked down and said, "I'll call them back", he said, "no, no go ahead and answer it", she took a deep breath and said, "hi Chad, how are you"?, Derek sat and listened and wondered just who this Chad was and why she never mentioned him before.

A few minutes later Derek heard her say, "I'll meet you there", she then got up and kissed Hank on the cheek and said, "bye bye sweetie", Derek said, "wait, where are you going"?, she said, "sorry hotstuff but this tech goddess has a date". His mouth flew open and his heart cracked as he watched half of his heart walk out of the house and close the door behind her.
