Surprise Baby Girl-Ch 32
Savannah grinned and said, "the only thing you need to know is that Hank is my son, my son", Derek leaned forward and said, "is he my son Savannah, I do have the right to know". She laughed and said, "you have a right, are you kidding me right now, you have whatever rights I say you have", Penelope said, "don't do this to him Savannah,
he has the right to know if Hank is his son or does he belong to Chad".
Savannah took a deep breath and said, "you don't have any right to speak here at all, you aren't part of this family", Derek laughed and said, "family, is that what you think we are a family", she said, "at first things with us was perfect but then they changed". Derek said, "and who's fault is that"?, she pointed at Penelope and said, "it's hers".
Penelope said, "m m mine, how is it my fault"?, she said, "don't play so innocent here Penelope, you were always part of our problems because you were always where I wanted to be and that was the center of Dereks life". She said, "he was my best friend, of course he loved me and wanted to spend time with me but we never ever acted on it Savannah, never".
Savannah said, "do you know what it's like to make love to someone with your entire heart only to have them moan out somebody elses name, do you"?, she shook her head and said, "n no, no I don't". Savannah said, "well I do and it wasn't just once either, it happened several times", Derek said, "don't try to blame this on her, you were cheating on me before Hank was even conceived".
She laughed and said, "ohhhhh did I"?, he slammed his hand on the table and said, "you know you were and things only got worse after you told me about Hank", she shook her head and said, "don't you dare talk about my son". Derek said, "so are you saying that he isn't mine, are you saying that he belongs to Chad"?, she sighed as she sat back against the chair and said, "I'm not telling you anything".
Derek stood up and said, "come on sweetness let's go back home to OUR son", Penelope stood up and intertwined fingers with Derek as they walked out of the room and the last thing they heard as they went around the corner was Savannah laughing. When they got outside they got in the truck and headed out onto the main street, Penelope said, "where are we going hotstuff"?, he took a deep breath and said, "to the hospital, we're going to get that DNA test done right now".
She listened as he said, "they will have Hanks DNA on file from where he was born so all they will need is mine to see if we match", she reached over and intertwined their fingers again and said, "he is your son Derek, he is". He brought her hand up to his lips and kissed it and said, "I can't lose him baby girl, I just can't lose him to Chad".
Penelope said, "you won't lose him, he will stay where he belongs and that's with you and me", Derek smiled and said, "thank you", she said, "for what", he said, "for not letting me give up hope". Penelope said, "together we will get through this, you, me and Hank will stay the wonderful family we were this morning", he nodded his head yes in agreement as they pulled up into parking lot of the hospital.
When they got out of the truck Penelope took a deep breath as she put her smaller hand in his and said, "everything is going to be alright hotstuff, you'll see", he sighed and said, "I hope so baby girl but ya know it figures". She said, "what does", he said, "just when everything is falling into place something happens to pull the bottom out from under me".
She said, "look at me Derek", they stopped walking and he looked at her and she said, "I love you and that little boy adores you, you are his daddy", he nodded his head and said, "and he's my boy, he was yesterday and he will be as long as he lives". She kissed his lips and said, "exactly" as they then continued their way inside the hospital.
They had spent almost half an hour explaining what they needed and why and it wasn't long at all before the paperwork was done and so was the blood work, Penelope said,
"how about we head home to our boy", he said, "sounds great, some family time is exactly what we need". It wasn't long before they were on their way back to the house,
their team and their son.
