Lean On Me-Ch 3

Penelope sat holding Derek for the longest time, just letting him know that she was there for him was all that he needed, when he finally pulled away he said, "I don't know what I would do without you". She smiled and winked at him and said, "well then I guess it's your lucky day because I'm not going anywhere hotstuff".

Their attention then went back to Fran and Derek said, "she looks so frail, so fragile, it kills me to see her like this", Penelope said, "your mom is a fighter and she loves you and your sisters more than anything". He nodded his head in agreement and said, "that she is", he then blew out a deep breath and said, "momma you can't give up now, you have to stick around so that I can give you those beautiful grandbabies I've been telling you I'd give you".

Penelope said, "any woman that gets you as a husband and a baby daddy is going to be the luckiest woman in the world", Derek looked up at her and winked causing her heart to race. Derek once again took his moms hand in his and said, "for so long you've been our world momma, our strength, our heart and now it's our turn to be here for you".

He gently squeezed his moms hand and said, "I love you, Sarah and Desi love you and we're here for you momma, now and forever", Penelope smiled and gently squeezed his shoulder letting him know that she supported him whole heartedly. A few minutes later Sarah and Desi walked back into the room with 2 extra cups of coffee in hand.

Derek and Penelope happily took the coffee as the four of them sat down, Sarah said, "you look exhausted baby brother, how long has it been since you've gotten something to eat or some sleep"?, he sat there thinking and he said, "well we just got back earlier yesterday, a few hours before you called and today's Tuesday, right"?, Desi said, "yep".

Derek said, "well I'd say I haven't slept since Sunday but I grabbed a sandwich on the jet yesterday evening", the sisters looked at each other and then at their brother and Sarah said, "Penelope here's my keys, take my car and my stubborn brother and make sure he eats, gets a shower and some rest before he comes back".

Penelope took the keys and looked at Derek who was about ready to decline their offer when Penelope said, "hotstuff if your momma knew that you hadn't had anything to eat or any rest in a long while you know she'd kick your butt". Derek laughed and said, "that she would baby girl, that she would as he glanced down at his mother".

He looked at his sisters and said, "alright I'll go but", Desi said, "we know, if anything happens we'll call you, we will big brother, I promise", Derek then hugged and kissed his sisters and intertwined fingers with his baby girl and said, "alright goddess we'll go for a while". After Derek and Penelope walked out of the room Desi said, "something tells me that very soon those two are going to pull their heads out of their butts and admit their feelings to each other", Sarah nodded her head in agreement and said, "I hear ya Des, I hear ya" as their attention then went back to their sleeping mother.

Penelope and Derek stopped and grabbed something to eat before heading back to Frans house, when they stepped inside Derek smiled and said, "home sweet home baby girl". She looked around at all of the pictures and said, "your mom loves you and your sisters so much", he nodded his head and said, "after pops died she had to be mom and dad to us and that wasn't easy, not at all".

Penelope said, "your mom is one of the strongest women I've ever known", he looked at her and sighed and said, "I can't lose her baby girl, I can't", Penelope pulled her best friend, her noir hero, her hotstuff into her arms and said, "you won't, you won't". She ran her hand down his back and said, "I'm here for you Derek, I'm right here".

Derek looked at her and said, "I don't know what I'd do if I lost her", she reached up and wiped away the tears that were streaming down his cheek and said, "you won't lose her, if their is anything I know about the Morgan clan it's that they are a tough bunch". She wrapped her arms around him and said, "I love you hotstuff".

He pulled back long enough to see the love in her eyes, he caressed her cheek and leaned in and pressed his lips gently against hers, the second their lips touched she felt her body tingle from the top of her head to the bottom of her feet. When he pulled away he said, "I'm so sorry I", she put her finger over his lips and said, "I'm here for you".

Derek said, "I need you, I need you more than I ever have before", she kissed his lips gently and said, "then I'm yours, all of me is yours", he practically growled as he claimed her lips with his. He wrapped his arms around her and lifted her up and put her on the counter, the soft, loving kisses quickly turned passionate and seconds later he ripped her panties off and tossed them on the floor.

She wrestled with his belt, when she finally had it off she unzipped his pants, as her hands went to the waist of his pants and boxers he claimed her lips again, The sound of their mutual moaning filled the large kitchen, Derek lined himself up at her entrance and seconds later she wrapped her arms and legs around him as he thrust himself inside her.
