Sorry for not updating, I've been super busy. And yet again, I don't own anything.
I woke up on my side, Derek was right behind me. His arm was spread over my side and his hand was holding mine. I adjusted so I could see him, and he was still sleeping.
I let go of his hand and turned around in his arms so I was facing him and my body was pressed against his. I brushed so hair out of his face and started stroking his cheek with the back of my hand.
His body tensed, and sleeping with him as many times as I had I knew that was how I knew he was about to wake up. His eyes fluttered a few times before focusing on me.
"Good morning beautiful." He said and kissed my head. He rested his head on mine and breathed deeply. "You have no idea how much I regret leaving you." He said and pulled me closer to him.
"It's ok, don't worry, I'm here." I wrapped my arms around his neck and looked at him in the eye. Before he could say anything I kissed him. He put his arms around my waist and pulled my up to him.
He kissed my neck and made his way down to where my neck and shoulder meet and started sucking. Only he knew that this was my most sensitive spot. I moaned at the feeling of him being mine again and he started to work his way back to my lips.
I tangled my fingers in his hair and tugged at him so he would lean his head back. I started to kiss his neck and he tightened his grip around my waist.
"I love you so much." He said when I kissed him again. I don't know why but this upset me.
"Derek?" I said as he went back to kissing my neck.
"Hmmm?" Was all he managed to say as his response.
I pulled back to look him in the eye. "What does this mean for us, I mean, do we go back to where we were, or do we start over?"
"We could go back to where we were. If you want." He looked worried as if he thought I was going to leave or push him away again.
"I want." I said with a smile and pulled him back to my lips.
"What are we going to do about The Edison Group?" I asked later after I finished filling him in on the details of what had happened the previous day.
"We call my dad." He said coming to sit by me on the couch. He picked up where my legs were and sat down and rested them back down on his lap.
"I don't think that is the greatest idea."
"Why?" He said holding my gaze as if trying to find the answer in my eyes.
"What if Lauren is still with them? There is no way she would be happy about you showing up, especially with me." I said, seeing Lauren was the last thing I wanted to do.
"Then she deals with the fact that me and you are together, and are going to stay that way." He said as he pulled on my legs and dragged me closer to him. His lips met mine.
"Have you talked to them since you left?" I asked after pulling away.
"No, I've seen them; they didn't know I was there though. I was at a gas station in Memphis."
"So they didn't know you were there?" I asked. I didn't think Derek wouldn't have went up and talk to them-
"If I went up to them they wouldn't let me leave." Derek said this as if he read my mind.
"When did you see them?"
"About two months after I left." He said not meeting my gaze. He was probably thinking that bringing it up hurt me more than him.
"Do you know where they are?" I asked trying to get him leaving off booth our minds.
"I know exactly where they are." He smiled and pulled me in for a kiss.
What do you think? Again any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
