As we waited for the plane to take off I sat at the window seat I was sitting behind Kate and Keith and next to an old lady who had already fallen asleep. I couldn't stop my mind from wandering to the reason I was on this plane, Derek. Derek and I were always passionate whether it was fighting over the remote or if we were under the sheets. It was the banter and back and forth that kept us drawn to each other. It was only a matter of time until we would cross that line, while fighting where we would get into each other's faces and one would capture the others lips. Which is exactly what happened, we were in our apartment at Queens, it was cheaper than getting freshman dorms for both of us, and with the new baby, our parent's needed all the spare cash as possible.
"Derek It was my turn to watch the TV you can watch this Hockey rerun anytime it's the season premiere of Castle!" I yelled reaching for the remote but he wouldn't let me have it. "You can watch it on the internet tomorrow." Derek said as he put the remote behind his back. "You think I won't reach for it do you?" I asked knowing that the only way to get it would be to straddle his legs since he was in his chair. "You wouldn't dare." He replied. "Challenge accepted." I countered and went over straddled his lap and reached behind him. "You won't get it." He said with one of those smirks that I hated so much. I straightened up and said "Is that so?" just as I was looking up I realized just how close I really was to him. "Yeah" he whispered. It was one of those moments where we get to close and one of us backs down but it wasn't going to be me this time. His eyes were staring into mine asking if we do this will you freak out. "It is." He finished and kissed me. The kiss started off slow but it started to get more intense, reluctantly we stopped, needing to breathe. It was then when I realized how much of an effect I had on him. I have two choices one I can keep going and probably lose my virginity, or I could walk away and see what happens. I chose the second. But before I could say anything he bit my lip and we started kissing again. About 5 minutes later I pulled away and said "It's late, I have test tomorrow, and there is no way you are getting past second before asking me out on a date." I got off his lap as dignified as possible and walked away without looking back.
Out of all of the Dasey moments we've had I think that one was my favorite probably because his reaction the next day.
"So Space Case what are you doing tonight?" Derek asked me over breakfast. "Well I was planning on doing some homework then yoga and maybe read pride and prejudice again." I replied wondering where he was going with this. "Wrong you are going out to dinner and a movie with me." He replied as if I was some regular girl and not his stepsister that he lives with. "Derek, you aren't going to get in my pants you know that right." I told him bluntly. "Yeah, I know doesn't mean I can't take you out. I have class in ten, I will pick you up at 7." He replied as he put his bowl in the sink and finished his orange juice, then walked out the door. This was going to be interesting.
"We are beginning our dissent please put your tray table up and your seat back in its upright position." The flight attendant announced as the seatbelt sign began to flash. I began to think about all of the different things I had to do when I got back home. We finally landed and got off the plane and went to baggage claim. There was a guy who had just taken my suitcase off the conveyor belt and before I could scream for someone to catch the guy, he turned around.
