Penelope was nervous, very nervous. Never in her life, had she been so close to nervous breakdown. Not the day she gave her virginity to Jimmy Petersons.
Jimmy was her first boyfriend, if you can call it that. The guy preferred to be in a slum gorging on beer, to spend an evening with her.
The first time they had sex, was very disastrous. Jimmy was selfish and inconsiderate under the covers, too. Their relationship only lasted one more week.
Later she met Hector Rodriguez. Hector showered her with gifts and attention ... just like his wife.
Penelope still remembered the day she discovered it. She was walking with her friends at the mall when she could see the bastard with his entire family: wife, two children, and even a granny.
She was sure that Hector also remembers that day perfectly. The hard blow he received in his crotch from Penelope made that day memorable.
The sound of her door ended her trip to memory lane. Penelope turned to look in the mirror, as she retouched her red lips. She smoothed her hair a bit more, placing part of her golden blond hair over her shoulders.
Again, the doorbell rang. She, at that very moment, decided to change the black shoes for white stilettos.
Now, she was perfect.
Penelope took a deep breath before opening the door...

Derek had to admit that he was a little nervous. He did not even know how much things had changed in less than two months. He was closer to Penelope and she seemed comfortable with their situation. However, he wanted more.
While waiting at her door, he inspired and expired forcefully a few times, before ringing the bell.
A neighbor looked at him up and down, opening the door of her house.
"You're a friend of Pen?" The woman asked with a smile.
'Good. Just what I needed 'he thought, as he gave a wry smile to the lady.
"Yes, I am her friend"
"Oh ..." she replied simply, as he opened the door of her house, "She is very good girl. Sometimes when she makes sugar cookies, gives me a few. The truth is that they are very tasty"
"Yes, ma'am ... she is an amazing woman" Derek replied, returning to ring the bell, which was not nothing more than a cry for help.
"You know she works for the FBI?" Said the woman, forgetting her house "She does some things with these machines"
"I know, ma'am ... we work together"
The woman looked surprised, as she approached him, forgetting also the issue of leave him alone "You're an FBI agent?"
"Yes, ma'am"
"Oh ... how interesting," she whispered, crossing her arms "And you have all these things like James Bond?"
Luckily, for Derek, the door opened.
Penelope was before him, beautiful as ever. She had her red lips to match her cherry red skirt, and her white top with red ribbons.
"Pen, dear ... How pretty you are!" Said excited her neighbor. The woman threw a hand to her chest, smiling sweetly, "You are truly beautiful"
Derek could not say anything. He had even forgotten the woman and her open nature. He had to swallow before speaking "How about if we go now?"
"Of course ... Be careful where you take me, because I carry high heels"
He smiled as he passed his arm around her shoulders, "Do not worry, baby girl ... You will not walk far tonight"

As she climbed into the car of Derek, she got rid of her shoes while she placed comfortably in the seat. "Where we going, love?"
For answer, he just gave her a confident smile, "You'll see ..."
Penelope snorted impatiently, leaning her face in the palm of her hand, looking out the window "You know I don't like surprises"
"There are surprises that are good ..."
Without warning, she hugged his neck and gave him a kiss on the cheek. He turned a second to look at her, smiling as he said, "See, that's a good surprise"
She laughed heartily, throwing her head back, before releasing a sigh "Thank you"
"Why?"
"For me out of my misery ..." she confessed with her eyes full of sweetness, as she stroked the side of his face "I was drowning in a sea of trouble, until you came to my rescue, just like David Hasselholf"
"You mean jumping in slow motion, and my eyes lost in the horizon?" He joked, still looking down the road.
He never put her life in danger, not for one instant. She was too important to him. She was his everything, and if he had anything to say in all this, he was going to be her everything, too.

Penelope was speechless, while Derek watched her with a proud smile on his face.
"Welcome to Lake Mountain, one of the most beautiful places in the world"
"Why we've never been to this place before?" She asked in surprise, while still looking at the reflection of the moon over the lake, the starry sky, and the thick forest ... the summer breeze caressing her face.
Derek laughed as he approached her from behind, moving his arms around her waist
"You like?" he whispered
"Yeah, baby ... this is so beautiful"
"Then let's go... dinner is ready"
She turned in his arms in dismay "Dinner? Have you prepared the dinner?"
Derek narrowed his eyes conspiratorially "You could say yes, but the truth is I've had a lot of help"
She frowned, still more surprised, "Who?"
"A certain Italian gentleman who is very present in our lives, and he loves us so much that has given us his cabin for some days"
"Rossi?"
He smiled as his hands up to her neck "Do you know another Italian? Do I have to be jealous? "
"Do not be stupid," she teased, hugging his neck "There is not a mere possibility, not on this earth or this universe, not in this life or in any other ... there is another man like you for me ... Never"
A/N: I know I'm evil like the evil witch from Snow White, but I decided to stop here to dedicate the next chapter in the development of the date.
I hope you enjoy it and not complain too much LOL
