Ch.6: The night is still young…

"Ahhh! Ash!" Derek shrieked as he quickly rose up from his sleep, hearing more thunder and lightning combinations. He looked around, seeing he wasn't by his best friends in their bunk beds.

Ash quickly stumbled into the living room, still half asleep. He tripped and fell behind the couch. "Ow!" he winced. He then swiftly picked himself up and stood.

He was greeted with the sight of Derek shaking and cuddling his pillow. Ash then went around the couch and stood next to him. He gasped as Derek stood and embraced him tightly.

Derek whimpered. "Ash I'm scared. The tea and candles helped a bit. But the thunder and lightening still startle me." Derek said shaking.

Ash sighed. He was tired from all the drama from the theater. Not to mention Derek's accident. And especially from his love desire. Still trying to figure out a way to win the Derek's heart for good was exhausting. He was so tired he barley noticed Derek grasping his arm.

"Sleep with me." Was the only thing Ash could make up from what Derek just said. Ash's eyes widened, he shook his head in shock. He blushed violently.

"W-w-what?" Ash choked out.

Derek looked at him and repeated more clearly. "Sleep on the couch with me."

Ash then felt himself relax at the word misunderstanding. He then blushed again as Derek began playing with his fingers.

"It's just that…" Derek started, he then let go of Ash's hand and sighed. "I don't want to sleep in the bunk beds…but I don't want to sleep here alone ither." Derek explained.

Ash blushed, not really sure how to answer. He peeked at Derek's desperate expression. He simply sighed and gave a small smile. Taking that as a 'yes' Derek laid back down on the couch. He patted the spot next to him. For a moment Ash was a hesitant about lying with Derek.

Derek longing to go to sleep rolled his eyes. He pulled Ash's arm forcefully. Ash gasped as he felt his body collapse over Derek's. He blushed violently as Derek looked into his eyes. Ash gave a girlie shriek as thunder & lightning struck. Derek also jumped and wrapped his arms around Ash's neck, scared once more. Ash was about to pull off of Derek and apologize. But he then realized the golden opportunity.

He was lying directly on the British heartthrob. Derek had his arms around his neck tightly scared stiff, basically snuggling the drummer. It was night, and till dawn…it was only the two together…alone. Ash's thoughts were cut short when Derek spoke.

"Promise not to leave." Derek slightly begged. Not wanting Ash to leave, so he could be alone again. Ash feeling bold embraced Derek tightly by the waist.

"Absolutely I promise." Ash said solemnly. He then laid himself next to Derek instead of on top. He kept his arms locked around the singer. He pulled the red silk blanket over their bodies to their shoulders. Ash started to pet Derek's brown silky hair as he spoke softly.

"Sleep bro. You're okay now."

Derek smiled contently and shut his eyes. In moments he was in a deep slumber. Ash stared at the him for moments, but eventually he dozed off too.

Ash awoke and was surprised to find Derek cradled in his arms, sitting on his lap, on a king sized bed. Derek had his arms around Ash's neck.

"I'm scared Ash." Derek said rubbing his head against the side of Ash's face.

"Don't worry Derek…you're safe in my arms." Ash assured. Ash then started to kiss the top of Derek's head. Derek then spoke.

"Make love to me Ash, please."

Ash looked into his hazel eyes and sighed, "I've been wishing for that Derek." Ash said.

Ash rolled over so that the handsome Brit was underneath him. Ash kissed Derek on the mouth passionately. Derek opened his mouth letting Ash's tongue in, exploring. Ash felt himself getting excited. He slid his hand in between Derek's legs, and stroked him thoroughly. Derek then gave a lustful moan and pulled from the kiss.

"Oh Ash!"

Ash's eyes snapped opened. He looked around, getting aware of his surroundings.

"Just a dream." Ash said softly to himself. He slightly jumped as he felt something brush up against him. He turned to see Derek rubbing against him. Ash smiled and laid himself back down. Derek still asleep, wrapped his arms around Ash's neck. Ash played with his hair gently trying not to wake him. He very gently touched the singer as if scared for him to disappear.

"I love you Derek." Ash whispered quietly. "I love you so much." He repeated. He then dozed off again, hoping for another dirty dream of his.
