So I guess I have officially moved out from underneath my rock to bring you more updates.
A/N: Thanks for all the reviews and ignoring the wonky formatting. Also don't be shy. Tell me what you would like to see happen next.
Once again POV will be done in Italics.
Disclaimer: I own nothing but my O.C characters.
Penelope
"Oh I can answer that," Penelope said as she and JJ walked up to the table.
"Of course she's here," Savannah said in a huff as she crossed her arms.
"Dear who is this..this woman," Victoria asked as she eyed Penelope up and down. She then turned towards JJ and did the same.
"Mother she is the one I have been telling you about. She always with Derek. She never leaves him the hell alone," Savannah screeched looking at her mother while jabbing a finger in Penelope's direction.
"Yes very pathetic. Very pathetic indeed." Victoria said, "But it really doesn't matter bunny because Derek and his little trashy friends and family aren't worth our time. Chauncey lets go," She demanded.
Penelope saw Derek moving to stand and placed a calming hand on his shoulder. She'd figured out who these people were and she seriously doubt she was going to be properly introduced anyway.
"Now ma'am really there is no need to shout, is there, "Penelope said noticing all the onlookers and the stunned waitstaff.
Victoria smoothed her dress down and yelled loudly, "Vannah, Chauncey I said Let's go."
The Hayes family stomped through the restaurant.
Before they could exit Savannah turned around and shouted, "Derek we're over," and then continued behind her parents.
"Well hellur and goodbye to you too," Madea said while rolling her eyes.
Penelope searched Derek's face for a moment to see of he was upset and to her surprise Derek had a look of mirth.
"I should have known on a night like tonight, the goddess of all knowing would be here to witness it," Derek asked while pushing a seat out for her to sit down.
Penelope smiled and sat next to him.
"Derek seriously are you okay," Penelope asked still concerned. "It's not everyday you get broken up with in such a dramatic fashion."
"Yeah Penelope, I am actually really good. Savannah, Samantha, Susan, or my person favorite Shaka Zulu, whatever her name was wanted me to change to the point that I wouldn't have recognized myself," He said with a small shake of the head. "That girl was nuttier than a fruitcake,".
"Well if my chocolate thunder says he's okay, then I'm okay too," Penelope said while patting his hand. She was rewarded with one of his breathtaking smiles.
"That's all fine and dandy but can we get some real food now? I'm hungry as hell and after all this I need me a shot of Hennessy," Madea said.
Penelope motioned for a waiter to come over and explained that she needed the check for both her table and Derek's. He nodded quickly and scurried away. Penelope laughed internally. No doubt the poor man was glad to be rid of them.
Once the bill was settled, which meant Derek snatched Penelope's and JJ's bill and well as the dinner date from hell, they headed out of the restaurant.
XXXXXXXX
JJ
"Hey skinny little blonde thing, hang back a second I need to ask you something," Madea said to JJ as she eyed how close Derek and Penelope were walking and laughing about the entire debacle inside.
"Sure thing," JJ replied. "What's up," She asked after slowing her walk down to match Mabel's.
"Okay," Madea said pointing at a still laughing Morgan and Garcia. "I normally don't get into people's business-
JJ shot her a look that said, "Yeah. Right,".
"Okay sometimes I can be a little inquisitive," She tried again but continued talking after JJ rolled her eyes. "But honestly what is going on with them? Why the hell was he even with that other girl,"
"All I can say is, for two people who are so smart they sure are dumb," JJ said as both she and Madea laughed at Penelope bumping her hip into Derek's.
"Well we gotta do sumthin'," The older woman said to the younger of the two.
"I don't know. Penelope can be guarded and Derek would be flat out pissed if he knew we were messing with his love life," JJ said as they made it to her SUV.
It then dawned on JJ that without even agreeing Morgan and Garcia had already decided to ride together leaving Madea and she behind. She unlocked her SUV and waited for Madea to get in as they followed the pair to the bar.
"See this is what I'm talkin about. They didn't even discuss who was riding with who, they just left our happy asses," Madea said with a slight chuckle and shake of her head.
As JJ backed out of her parking space she looked at Madea and said, "Don't worry we will think of something,".
XXXXXXXX
Derek
"Garcia turn that off," Derek said. He could strangle his aunt for telling her about his obsession with the Purple One.
"C'mon Derek sing with me... Purple Rain... Puuuuurrrrple Rain,"
"Fine... Puuuuuuuurrrrple Ra-ii-in," Derek sang highly off key but was having a great time making the short trip to the bar.
What wasn't there to be happy about? He got rid of a snobby headache, he's jammin' out in the car with his best friend, and his favorite aunt in the world was visiting him.
Oh shit his aunt.
"Don't worry she's riding with JJ," Penelope said. Really her all knowing-ness was scary at times.
Derek parked, got out of his beast of an SUV, he then held the door of said beast for Penelope open and helped her get out.
He couldn't help but admire her shoes. They were sexy platform stilettos, and he had no desire to see his baby girl break her pretty little neck.
Once inside the bar Derek grabbed a table for four, and was pleasantly surprised to see Rossi and a colleague from another department enjoying what looked to be bourbon on the rocks.
Penelope and Derek politely waved and took their seats not wanting to interrupt whatever the senior profiler was talking about with his friend.
Derek glanced around and saw JJ and his aunt looking for them. He made a grand gesture and waved them over.
They took their seats and started perusing the menu.
A server came by and took their orders. Derek couldn't help but smile when Madea order a double shot of her favorite liquor.
"Now this is a place I can chow down in," Madea said. "I know they have a grill cause I can smell the burnt grease all the way over here,"
Everyone around the table chuckled.
"So Derek when are you guys headed to Georgia," Penelope asked sipping on her beer.
"I haven't exactly asked for the time off baby girl," Derek ducked his head not even wanting to see the hard look his aunt was surely giving him.
"Damn it Derek I told you to take the time off, and I meant it. If I have to I will drag you by your ear all the way. Do you hear me," Madea asked while looking at him pointedly.
"Yes ma'am," He replied sheepishly.
"Aw big bad agent Morgan is in trouble," Penelope said while giggling.
"Laugh it up little blonde girl because you're coming too," Madea said in a tone that brooked no argument.
A/N: Don't worry I am already working on the next chapter. I just wanted to get this out.
