Okay, it's a pretty short chapter, but I liked the dynamics of them waking together.
Meredith felt a really light and cool breeze slip under the divine thread count sheets she had partially slept in that night; it seeped under the covers and engulfed her thin and long legs in a chill. As her body shuddered slightly but evidently, she felt a warm and strong arm draw her low and close to an even warmer and stronger body, she immediately remembered as Derek's. As she glanced up lazily to the clock, it flashed a bright and loud 11:26am; groaning to herself, she let her green eyes flutter shut once more.
"Are you awake…?" came a soft and sensual whisper in her ear that she had heard all night.
Meredith groaned a little louder than she had before as she rolled over gently, burying her head under the covers and nestling her face against Derek's chest; somewhere, under the covers though, she knew that he was smiling.
"Mmm…" Meredith managed to murmur as her hangover seemed to find it's way into her head.
"How did you sleep…?" Derek asked quietly.
"Okay, I guess…" Meredith answered with a yawn; her voice was muffled under the covers. "Once I actually fell asleep though," her voice sounded tired and exhausted.
Derek chuckled.
His beautifully strong and smooth hands snaked their way easily under the blankets and ran over her abdomen. He touched every inch of bare skin that his hands could find and let it breeze like satin under his touch.
"Still reeling?" he asked with a slight chuckle.
For the both of them, however, the night before had been incredibly magical and Meredith knew without a doubt she wouldn't forget it anytime soon.
"Mmm hmm…" Meredith answered sleepily.
Derek laughed again at her dimming response to his question and tried his best to pull at the covers so that he could reveal her face.
"Mmm…no!" Meredith groaned.
"Come on Mer…" Derek said sweetly. "Come out from under those covers and let me see you…"
Meredith shook her head amongst the mound of blankets.
"No…I wanna hide…I look like crap…"
"I could hardly believe that…now let me see your beautiful face…"
Meredith stopped shaking her head; she'd heard what he'd said and didn't like it in the slightest.
"You're breaking rule number two…" she told him.
Derek laughed.
"Those crappy and senseless rules were for what we were doing last night Meredith…" he said in the softest and sweetest of tones; a kind of huskiness crossing his voice, making it sexier than ever.
Meredith groaned, yet again; she knew her defeat in response to that statement that escaped his mouth. She pulled the thick and heavy covers tight around her face in order to somewhat avoid the amazing look in his eyes.
"Come on…" he said tugging at the covers.
Meredith wasn't about to give up on this however, because she knew somewhere deep down that she couldn't resist him with one look into his dreamy blue eyes that searched the depths of her soul.
"No…" she responded flatly as she continued to clutch to the covers that sat around her face.
"Please…"
"No…"
"I'll give you a chocolate…"
"No…I hate chocolate…"
"How about room service…?"
Meredith giggled under the covers.
"Maybe…" she said meekly.
"With bacon and eggs…"
"Waffles?"
"If you want them…"
"Okay…"
Her weakness broke in the satisfaction of the light stroke that his hand made when it breezed, once again, over her stomach and down the side of her waist; sitting comfortably on her hips. Meredith slowly and cautiously poked her head out from under the covers.
"There…" Derek smiled with those eyes once more. "Now…that wasn't so hard…was it?"
Meredith laughed and then winced as she put her smaller hand to her forehead and groaned loudly.
"Now…you see…this is why I don't drink tequila…" she said as she rubbed her forehead just above her eyes.
Derek chuckled and leaned down so that he could kiss her sensually; something still familiar from the night before.
"No…" he said softly and seductively as his voice slipped into her ear like the ice cream into a chocolate dip. "This is why you do…" he kissed her once more.
Meredith felt herself, yet again, getting completely and utterly lost in the passion that came through in his kiss. It was so amazing and comforting as his larger lips guarded her smaller lips. In an instant, however, she pulled back.
"Mmm…" Derek instinctively moved forward so that he could continue to kiss her. "What is it?"
"Breaking rule number one…" Meredith attempted to say; her voice, however, came out in a raspy and breathless tone.
Derek groaned.
"Sex with a light on…?" he sighed as his hands travelled over her cheeks and sent tingling sensations through his fingers. "But…Meredith…we actually, technically don't have a light on…"
Meredith laughed.
"It's daylight…" she pointed out.
"Meredith…I've studied science for the past four years and I am telling you that natural illumination and artificial lighting are two very different things…" Derek said.
"Not in these sheets buddy…" Meredith replied.
"Come on Mer…" Derek smiled as he pulled her forward. "I wanna see that sexy body…"
Meredith shook her head with a giggle and rolled her eyes at the sweetness in the tone of his voice.
"Breaking rules one and two!" she told him as she poked his chest with her somewhat ineffectual fingertips.
Derek leaned over to kiss her.
"Didn't you ever learn that rules were meant to be broken…?" he asked seductively.
Okay, expect a longer update next time... I just wanted to write this to play out their somewhat forbidden relationship... Well, it really would be if Ellis found out... but maybe she will??
Thank you so much for the reviews...
Please REVIEW again!!
