Sorry if this chapter sucks, im going through a mental break down, but I had to update.
As I was walking up the front walk to the door, I didn't know what I was going to say. But before I could stop myself, I was knocking. The door opened slowly, and there he was, tall, dark, with emerald green eyes.
"Chloe?" Derek said looking twice just to make sure it was me.
"Derek, I-I need your help." I said still trying to catch my breath.
He noticed my scratches up and down my body from running. "Chloe! What happened?" He said stepping out of the house to get a better look.
"I'm fine, I just need your help." I said letting him run his hands over me to make sure I wasn't severely injured.
"Of course, come in."He moved out of the way of the door to let me in. I hesitated but walked into what looked like a livingroom.
"I know you probably don't want to see me, but I couldn't think of anyone else to come to." I said sitting down, trying not to make eye contact.
"You had every right to want me out of your life. It's fine, really. So….What do you need help with?" He sat down right next to me so that our knees were touching. I didn't move, and neither did he.
"I had a boyfriend, Michael," When I said this he tensed and his jaw tightened. "Anyways, this morning when I got out of the shower, he was sitting there with a women-"
"What?! He cheated on you? Where is this douche?" He stood up and was walking toward the door. I jumped up after him. I grabbed his arm to turn him around.
"It's not like that. Anyways, like I said he was sitting with a women, and she was talking about you, and the Edison Group. Long story short, Michael lied and is a sorcerer, and I kicked them out, and they shot at me. I ran straight here." I said walking back to the couch.
"That's the short story?" Derek said coming back to sit with me.
"I know, but it could have been longer." After I said this, I was suddenly really tired.
"You need sleep, you can take my room. We will talk more later."
"What happened to Melissa?"
"After I saw you, I realized how much I missed you, and it pissed her off. So I broke up with her." He said getting up and walking to what I supposed was the bedroom. I followed him.
"I'm sorry. I never meant to get in the middle of it." I said following him into a large room. It had cream colored walls, white matching furniture, and a white and gold patterned bed set. Nothing like I imagined Derek would have for his bedroom.
"It's not your fault," He walked over to one of the dressers, "And I kinda brought you into the middle when I kissed you." He tossed a shirt and a pair of sweat pants at me, and I gave him a confused look. "I guessed you didn't bring any clothes, and I suppose you might want those washed," He ran a pointed figure over my body. "And it's not like you haven't worn any of my shirts before."
It's true, when we were together I almost never wore my own clothes.
"I'll be right back so you can change." He walked out of the room and closed the door. I quickly took off my clothes and put on the ones he gave me. I looked at the shirt; it was one that he got at a fair we went to for our first date. I hoped my blush wasn't too noticeable when I opened the door to find him waiting for me.
"Oh, um, I gave you that shirt, do you want another one?" He looked embarrassed. I didn't want another one, I liked this one.
"No, it's fine. It brings back memories." I said walking back into the room. He picked up my clothes and went back to the door.
"I'll be right back; I'm going to go put these in the wash." And then he walked out. I took the opportunity and started looking around his room. Tv, game console (typical Derek), and pictures on the dresser and desk. Some were of him and Simon. Him, and Kit. The whole family on camping trips with Andrew. I moved to the desk to look at those pictures, and saw…
Me. Me and Derek at the fair, at a restaurant, and us again when we went swimming that one time with everyone. He kept these? I didn't even know he had them in the first place. I picked up the one of us at the fair to get a better look. I remember this; he wanted a picture so he could always remember that night. He forced a random worker to take the picture after we got off the Ferris wheel.
Derek came up and saw me looking at the picture. He walked over and took it from me to look at it himself. "This is my favorite one." Was all he said. I took the picture and put it back in its place on the desk.
I pressed myself against his chest and felt his arms go around me. "I've missed you so much." Was all I said before he picked me up and brought me to the bed.
He laid down and I rested my head on his chest and entwined my hands and legs with his.
"I love you." Derek said and kissed my head right before I fell asleep.
Oooohhh they're back together! Or are they? Seriously, ideas please! Review!
