All I Want For Christmas Is You-Ch 3

Penelope walked into her apartment and instantly smelled Dereks cologne, she smiled when she saw him sitting on her couch, she said, "hotstuff, what are you doing here"?, he said, "I'm here to talk to you about something". He patted the couch beside him and she sat down and said, "I was wanting to talk to you about something to".

Derek said, "me first", she said, "no handsome, me first" so at the same time they blurted out, "WILL YOU GO TO CALIFORNIA WITH ME", they looked at each other and said, "WHAT" and then Penelope put her hand on his arm and said, "we're having a Christmas family reunion in California and I wanted to know if you would go with me"?, he said, "of course I will sweetness".

She looked at him and said, "waittttttttt a minute, you asked me to go to California with you, who do you know in California"?, he said, "wellll gorgeous I kinda overheard your conversation with your brother". Penelope said, "so you're going with me out of pity"?, he intertwined their fingers and said, "no mam, I'm going with you out of love".

Penelope said, "are you sure that you want to go because my family, well they are different is what they are", Derek said, "what do you mean different, are they mutants or something"?, she laughed and said, "not that different, it's just that they like to tease and if they see that I brought a man with me they will tease you and claim that you're my boyfriend".

Derek said, "so let them", she said, "huh"?, he said, "let them", she said, "Derek", he said, "baby I need to tell you something and I need for you to listen, okay"?, she nodded her head and said, "okay". Derek blew out a deep breath and said, "I love you", she smiled and said, "and I love you sugar", he said, "goddess, listen to me I love you, not best friend kind of love, not brother and sister love but love you as in want to spend the rest of my life with you kind of love".

Penelopes mouth flew open and she said, "you love me"?, he reached up and touched her cheek and said, "I love you so much and I have since the day we met". She sighed and said, "I love you to", he leaned in and said, "permission to kiss those lips", she laughed and said, "permission granted hotstuff, permission granted" as he leaned in and claimed her lips with his in a fiery kiss.

They pulled apart to the sound of an alarm going off, Penelope said, "what was that"?, he laughed and said, "that was my alarm letting me know that we need to be at the airport in 90 minutes". She said, "90 minutes, their is no way that I can be ready in" and to stop her babbling he crashed his lips against hers.

She pulled away smiling and said, "did you just shut me up"?, he winked at her and said, "yep", she giggled and said, "feel free to do that any time you want". He leaned in and brushed his lips gently against hers and said, "go get packed, we've got to leave soon", she stood up and saluted him and said, "sir, yes sir" and then turned around and headed through her beaded curtain to get packed.

Derek sighed happily as he sat waiting for his girlfriend to get packed, he smiled as he said it again, "his girlfriend", she was finally his woman, he could hold her when he wanted to, he could kiss her when he wanted to and ohhhhhh was he gonna kiss her.
