Surprise Baby Girl-Ch 11
Emily said, "just because he proposed doesn't mean that she accepted", Derek just stood there staring, had he lost his last shot at a life with the woman of his dreams or was Emily right. JJ said, "I've got to go guys Garcie needs me and Em", she then looked at Emily and said, "come on Em", both women kissed their husbands before they headed out the front door.
Reid put his hand on Dereks shoulder and said, "Em's right Derek", he just shook his head and said, "I'm to late, I've lost her", their attention was then pulled to Hank who was wobbiling across the floor. Reid said, "how about you and uncle Reid go outside and swing"?, Hank clapped his hands and Reid said, "we'll be outside for a few minutes".
After they were gone Hotch said, "Morgan you still have a chance, they aren't married yet, don't give up now", he took a deep breath and said, "you're right, she isn't a married woman yet so until that happens I'm gonna keep fighting for her". Hotch laughed and said, "now we need to start the paperwork to stop Savannah from seeing Hank alone until the final hearing", he nodded his head yes as they sat down at the table and started the paperwork.
Penelope was pacing back and forth across her apartment when there was a knock on her door, she walked over and opened the door and was immediately enveloped in the loving arms of her friends. JJ rubbed her hand up and down Penelopes back and said, "I don't know weather to be happy or sad Garcie", she looked at her friend and said,
"that makes two of us Jayje".
The three women walked over and plopped down on the couch and Emily said, "tell us everything" and they then spent the next few minutes listening to Penelope tell them about her date. JJ looked at her and said, "he just proposes and slips the ring on your finger and tells you he isn't pushing you and leaves"?, Penelope nodded her head and said, "yeppppppp".
Emily said, "sounds pushy to me", JJ said, "me to, what kind of man does that"?, she shrugged her shoulders and said, "I told him that I wasn't ready and he told me to just think about how happy we could be together and how happy he can make me but I can't". JJ said, "why not"?, she said, "because I can't stop thinking about what Derek told me".
Emily said, "he's devastated right now", Penelope said, "why"?, she continued by saying, "he knows that Chad proposed", Penelope said, "ohhhhhh, I don't know what to do girls". JJ said, "do you love Chad"?, she said, "I care a lot about him", Emily said, "that isn't what she asked, do you love him"?, she said, "I don't know, I really thought I did until Derek came back".
JJ said, "we don't want you to get hurt Garcie but by the same token we don't want to see Derek or Chad hurt", Penelope said, "I don't want that either, I love Derek so much and the last thing I want is to hurt hotstuff". She laid her head on the back of the couch and said, "I don't know what to do", Emily said, "you need to take your time and not rush into anything with either of them".
She nodded her head and said, "I know but", JJ said, "no buts, you need to slow things down and let your heart tell you what you want and if it's Chad so be it but if it's up to you and Derek and Chad will understand". She blew out a deep breath and said, "I hope you're ri" and their conversation was stopped by someone knocking on Penelopes door.
Derek smiled as he looked out the door at his son playing with Reid, he was deep in thought when Hotch said, "he's adorable", Derek said, "he is and I don't know what I would do without him". Hotch said, "don't worry you won't have to find that out, we're going to do anything that it takes to make sure that you get to keep Hank with you".
Penelope opened the door and saw a young delivery boy who smiled and said, "I have a delivery for Penelope Garcia", she said, "that's me", he said, "sign here please mam". She signed on the dotted line and said, "thank you", she reached into her pocket and pulled out some money and handed it to the young man, he smiled at her and said, "thanks mam, you have a good day" before walking down the hallway toward the stairs.
JJ said, "what is it"?, she said, "I don't know, I don't know", she put the box down on the table and opened it and smiled when she saw a dozen pink roses", she picked one up and said, "pink, my favorite". Emily said, "who are they from"?, she saw a card in the bottom of the box and it said, "DON'T GIVE UP ON US, I LOVE YOU, YOUR HOTSTUFF", she said, "awwww they're from hotstuff" and the room was filled with "awwwwW" as the girls watched the smile on her face get bigger and bigger.
