I can sizzle like bacon,
I am made with an egg,
I have plenty of backbone, but lack a good leg,
I peel layers like onions, but still remain whole,
I can be long, like a flagpole, yet fit in a hole,
What am I?
Chloe's POV
I sat up stretching my arms above my head yawning I'd just woken up, which meant I'd gone to sleep. Pulling my dress down a little more I looked up to see Derek leaning on the door frame his eyes were glazed over deep in thought and I sighed remembering what Tori had told me,
"Derek?" I called and he studied me as I stood up he swallowed visibly and looked away,
"Yes?"
"Do you think anyone wants to watch a movie?" I asked and Derek shrugged,
"I'll get popcorn." He replied finally just as Simon walked by with Roxy,
"Were going to use that bedroom." He informed us before carrying Roxy up the stairs I smiled at the sight jumping as a large hand grabbed my arm,
"Shit sorry!" Derek swore and I blushed,
"It's okay I live in a bad neighborhood now never know what to expect."
"What happened to your heater?" he asked and I raised an eyebrow, "Tori mentioned earlier that it was broken."
"Some guy broke into my room and started firing his little gun it hit my heater just skimmed my arm." I showed him the mark it had left on my arm and he growled low in his throat I smiled happily. Derek was still concerned for me I followed him into the kitchen and sat at a bar stool as he retrieved the popcorn bags from the pantry,
"Where is Tori?" I asked and Derek jerked his head towards the clock on the stove that was shinning in a soft green telling me that it was 12:27am. She was definitely asleep by now. I walked past Derek who had the now popped popcorn and drew out my new favorite movie,
"What is it?" Derek asked as I hid the cover from him,
"Surprise!"
"Come on Chloe you know I hate surprises!" He whined just like the old Derek I almost got teary eyes from the thought. I slipped in the newest Red Riding Hood and slide into the couch with Derek. He snaked his arm around my waist and drew me close to him I was shocked and pushed his arm away he snatched it back placing his head in his hands, "sorry I guess it's subconscious." He informed me and I shrugged snuggling back in his eyes grew wide with surprise as he looked down at me. I smiled and laid my head on his lap and he let his right hand play with my hair as his left was drawing on my stomach. I turned my head to find the menu playing Derek chuckled at the movie and I smiled up at him,
"It's my favorite." I informed him watching his reaction there was none his face was blank as ever and I turned my eyes to the screen as Derek pressed play.
blank as ever and I turned my eyes to the screen as Derek pressed play.

I glared up at Derek,
"Unrated is better!" I told him and he shrugged,
"What's different."
"She has a baby in the last scene."
"That's it."
"Yep."
"Oh." I smiled at his bland word sitting up,
"Stand." I commanded and he did as I said and I started to fluff the pillows and stuff so I could sleep.
"You could-"
"Please stop Derek I'm not sleeping with you." I replied and Derek sighed,
"If you change your mine," I went to say something but he raised his hand, "or get cold promise me you'll come up?" I stood there to think before nodding,
"Promise." He sighed and ran a hand through his hair before nodding and walking out of the room coming back moments later with a large duvet, "thanks Derek." He just nodded standing there for a moment before turning on his heels and leaving again. I ran to catch up quick and called up to him,
"Yes?"
"Can I uh borrow a set of clothes?" I asked and he turned back looking at my outfit before nodding and I followed him to his room where he handed me one of his shirts and a pair of his boxers. Changing in his bathroom I used a hair tie to tighten the shorts on one side but let the shirt hang down low to cover myself exiting the washroom I let him check me over before he blushed lightly,
"You look really hot in that." He whispered just loud enough for me to hear and I blushed he took a step towards me and I jumped to the side backing away causing him to stop, "sorry." I turned on my 'tail' fleeing the awkward moment,
"Chloe!" he called out to me and I froze turning around, "can we maybe do that again someday?" He asked and I smiled,
"I'd like that." His face brightened and I walked back down to the couch to catch some shuteye.

I woke up around 2 am I stretched my arms above my head just as Derek walked in,
"Chloe?" he called his voice wavering,
"Yeah?" I asked and he ran a hand down his face,
"Are you okay?" he asked and my heart leaped. He still cared! Was the first thought running through my brain shortly followed by, he's just wondering cause your living in his house.
"Yeah Derek I'm fine." I replied with a yawn, "go back to bed."
"I-I can't."
"Why not?"
"I'm worried about you." I rolled my eyes and glared at him,
"Stop."
"But-"
"You lost the right to worry about me a long time ago."
"I am being kind letting you stay in my house!" he snapped and I glared,
"Fine want me to leave I will."
"You can't."
"Exactly! But if you think this is anyway to get back with me you can continue dreaming don't pretend to care anymore cause if you do I am leaving."
"If I didn't care I'd let you walk out that door!"
"Just go away."
"Not until you answer my question."
"Which one!"
"Are you okay!"
"No Derek I am staying in my Ex's house one that is designed just like I told him I liked you even have that freaking key in a frogs mouth! It's like my dream home has been robbed from me!" I screamed tears falling down my face, "I'm stuck with a guy who has to pretend to care for me cause he can't make me leave no Derek I am not okay!" Derek took a step towards me and I held up a hand,
"Chloe."
"Don't just go." He bowed his head turning around I heard his footsteps retreat.
