Hey everybody! Hope you enjoy the chapter!

Penelope's POV:

The plane ride to LA is pure agony. I cry all the way there. When the plane finally lands Reid is there to pick me up. I was in such a hurry to get here that I didn't even bring any luggage. As soon as I see him I walk up to him. He looks like he's been crying. Oh no. That means that it can't be good. He doesn't say anything. He simply just pulls me into a hug.

We both stand there in the middle of the airport hugging and crying until we pull apart a few minutes later. We walk out of the airport and to the car. Once we're both buckled in he starts the SUV and pulls out of the parking a lot.

The car ride is in complete silence. The only thing that can be heard is my sobbing and a couple of sniffles every other minute from Spencer. A thousand thoughts are running through my mind.

What if he doesn't make it? We just got married. I finally got the love of my life. He can't leave me. I took a pregnancy test this morning and it was positive. What if he never meets our baby?

I'm pulled out of my thoughts when Reid tells me we arrived at the hospital. He helps me out of the car and puts his arm around me as we walk into the hospital. I guess he can tell that I'm not emotionally stable enough to walk on my own.

We walk into the waiting room and the rest of the team is there. Hotch is crying as he holds a sobbing Prentiss. Rossi has tears in his eyes as JJ has her head laying on his shoulder. She's sobbing too. As soon as everyone sees me JJ and Emily get up and run up to hug me. As soon as they hug me we all break down. We're hugging each other and sobbing uncontrollably as Hotch and Rossi get up and try to usher us to a seat. All three of us sit down and hold hands.

I can tell that they're all hiding something from me. They keep looking back and forth between each other like they're debating who should tell me.

"One of you just tell me already," I say between sobs.

"Kitten, the doctor says that Derek has to go through surgery, but that even with the surgery the chances of him surviving are very small," Rossi says. I didn't think that I could cry more than I already was, but I did. I cried even more. I couldn't even form words.

The doctor comes out and walks over to us. He looks at me and says "Hi, I'm Doctor Haylock. I assume that you're Mrs. Morgan?"

"Yes sir" I reply. "I assume that they already told you what I said?" he asks. I again reply with "Yes sir."

"Well, we're about to wheel him down to surgery. You may come see him before we do so if you would like," he says. I nod my head and follow him to Derek's room.

We arrive outside of the room and the doctor says "You have 3 minutes with him before we take him down to the operating room," and then walks away. Before he can get too far I call out, "Doctor Haylock, be honsest. Is he going to make it?" He replies with "Honestly, Mrs. Morgan, the chances of him making it are very very very small." He gives me an apologetic look and walks away.

I enter the room very slowly trying to stay strong. I almost lose it again when I see him. He is laying on the bed with all these IVs and machines hooked up to him. He is obviously not awake, but the look on his face is of pure pain. His wound is covered by a bandage. I can't stand seeing him like this. It breaks my heart.

I walk up to the side of his bed and gently grab his hand. I want to say something in case he can hear me somehow, but I can't find the words. I bring the hand that's not holding his up to stroke his face.

I begin to speak "Hey Hot Stuff. I don't know if you can hear me or not, but just in case you can I want you to listen to me. I'm pregnant, Baby Boy. We're gonna have a baby! You have to survive. I know you can do it. You're too strong to let go. You're the strongest person I've ever met. You can do this. Pull through it for our baby. For me. For us. You have to make it. You can't leave me. I just got you. Don't do this to me. You can't. You just can't, Derek Morgan."

I can't control the tears as they fall from my eyes. The nurses come in and say that the 3 minutes are up.

"I love you more than anything, Hot Stuff," is the last thing I say to my Hot Stuff as I watch them wheel his lifeless body out of the room.
