Derek or Luke-Ch 3
Hotch was sitting behind his desk working on his paperwork when Derek knocked on the door, he smiled and said, "Morgan, come in". Hotch stood up and said, "it's good to see you, how is everything"?, Derek said, "well Hotch to make a long story short Savannah cheated on me and got pregnant and I filed for divorce and custody of Hank".
Hotch said, "I'm sorry to hear about Savannah", Derek said, "thanks man", Derek said, "and their is another reason that I stopped by today". Hotch nodded his head and said, "I'm listening", Derek said, "I'd like to get my job back, is that possible"?, Hotch smiled and said, "it sure is, it will just take you filling out some paperwork and talking to the new director but it can be done".
Derek smiled and said, "when can we start this"?, Hotch said, "right now" and the two of them stood up and headed out of his office. As they were walking down the stairs Penelope and Luke were walking up the stairs and she said, "Hotch, we just got a case, a bad one".
He nodded his head and said, "go ahead and brief the team and I'll be there in a few minutes", she said, "on it bossman" as her and Luke headed on into the round table room. Derek then looked at Hotch and said, "how long has that been going on"?, Hotch said, "what"?, Derek said, "since when has baby girl and this new cat, this Luke been dating"?, Hotch laughed and said, "I'm not sure but it's definitely new".
Derek smiled and said, "good to know", Hotch said, "well if you want her, I'd tell her", Derek said, "what are you talking about man"?, Hotch said, "come on Morgan, you and Garcia belong together and you have for years and if Savannah hadn't gotten pregnant with Hank you never would have married her".
Derek said, "you're right, I mean I loved her but not the way I loved, well love baby girl", Hotch said, "you've still got time but you better act fast". Derek said, "don't worry man I will, I will" as they stepped off the elevator and headed toward the directors office.
A few minutes later Derek and Hotch walked out and Derek said, "thank you for standing up for me in there", he said, "not a problem, you're one of the best agents I've got". Derek said, "sorry that I can't go with you guys this case".
Hotch said, "yeahhh I bet you are", he laughed and said, "don't tell the others that I'm back yet, I want to surprise them with the news". Hotch said, "no problem but since we'll be wheels up in a few minutes this will give you some time to spend with Garcia".
Derek grinned and said, "don't I know it man, don't I know it" as they stepped off the elevator, Hotch said, "well I've got to get to briefing, I'll see you when we get back". Derek held out his hand and said, "thanks again man, I appreciate it", Hotch grinned and said, "welcome back Morgan, welcome back" before he walked up the stairs and headed toward the round table room.
Derek bit down on his bottom lip and grinned as he headed toward the elevator, he had some paperwork to do and then he was going to concentrate on winning the heart of the one woman that has always owned his and that's his baby girl, his goddess, his Penelope.
