Memories Of Her-Ch 17
Over the next couple of days Derek's levels kept going down more and more with each passing day and with the lowering levels brought back more and more of Derek's memories of his family and friends, especially his baby girl and their unborn child.
Spending time with Penelope brought him more and more happiness, even though he was in the hospital he got to spend time with the people he loved as they worked together to help with his memories.
Derek and Penelope were talking about the nursery when Shannon walked into the room with a smile on her face and his release papers in her hands, she walked over to them and handed Derek the papers and said, "congratulations Derek, you are free to go home".
Derek looked up at her and smiled and said, "thank you so much Shannon for everything that you did for me", Shannon said, "you are very welcome but even though you are are being released I want you to spend some more time off of work", he nodded his head and said, "okay but for how much longer?", she said, "well I have already talked to Aaron and he has agreed that for now it's better that you continue resting".
Everybody looked up as Hotch and the others walked into the room, Penelope said, "sooooo bossman we are free to go", Hotch said, "we knew earlier this morning that he was getting released and I'm sure Shannon has already told you that you will still be off on medical leave for a little while longer, right?", both Derek and Penelope nodded their heads yes.
Shannon said, "well I'm going to get back to work", she then smiled and said, "congratulations again Derek and don't worry when Aaron thinks that you are ready to go back to work I'll sign the papers and fax them to the BAU for you", he said, "thanks again Shannon", she said, "you are very welcome".
A few seconds later everybody's attention turned to Penelope as she stood up, their attention turned to her because she said, "ohhhhhh noooooooo", Derek said, "what's wrong sweetness?", she said, "I don't think we're going to be going anywhere", everybody looked at each other and then at her.
Jack and Henry pointed down at the floor and Henry said, "aunt P is weaking", Shannon said, "leaking?" and then she saw the puddle of fluid at her feet, she said, "she's in labor", she then stepped out into the hallway and said, "we need to get Penelope changed in in bed, her water just broke".
Derek stood up and guided his wife over to the bed with the help of Fran and Reid while the others stepped aside to allow Shannon and her staff help bring the next generation of Morgan children into the world.
