Hey guys! Im gona try to update every couple of days, but I cant guarantee anything till schools over. Anyways thanks to everyone who has reviewed J So anyways, on with the story
For dinner we had some kind of Chinese food, I couldn't even pay attention to my food, I was way to preoccupied for mine and Derek's walk tat was to come after.
Every time I would look at Derek, it was like he could sense that I was, because he would turn to look at me. I would look down, but not before I a small smirk forming on his mouth.
After everyone was done dinner, I excused myself so I could get freshened up before the walk, because I had a feeling that we were going to be going somewhere different today instead of in the midst of the forest.
I was just finishing up when I heard a knock at the door, as I open the bathroom door I see Derek strolling through the empty room, gaze locked on mine. When he reaches me, he pushes the door open farther, and walks right in.
Im about to tell him to leave when he looks at me, more intense then I have ever seen him before, but with such love in his eyes.He pulls me closer to his body and leaned down, as if to kiss me, but stopped just before my lips, tensing. His nostrils flaring, he quickly turns to the front door. After a few seconds he shakes his head, and turns to the open bathroom window, this time walking over to the sill and sniffing the air.
"Derek? Derek, what's w-wrong? What d-do you smell?" I ask, trying to keep the disappointment and nervousness from my voice. I was getting better at not stuttering when nervous, but was still having slight difficulty.
"Hmmm, I thought I smelt…never mind, it doesn't matter." he said as he turned from the window to look at me, and I could tell there was something that was wrong. He took a step, and was right in front of me. The bathroom was small so there wasn't much space, especially with a full grown werewolf in it.
He took my face in his hands, looking into my eyes." We should probably get going if we are going to walk. Its gona get dark soon, and I know how skittish you are." He said with a smile.
"Im wont be, not with my amazingly sexy werewolf looking after me." I said as I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed his collar bone. I felt him shutter slightly under my lips, and I had to give a small giggle.
He secured his arms around my waist and hoisted me up onto the counter, I wrapped my legs around his waist." So you think Im sexy? Hmm….." He looked down at me.
"Yes I do…very sexy indeed." I looked into his eyes, and saw confusion." What's wrong?" I was pulling away, when he tightened his grip on my waist.
"Chloe, nothings wrong. I just….just didn't think you would ever call me sexy." He blushed.
"Derek, how could I not call you sexy? You have to be the most modest guy I have ever met! You have the body that any guy would die for, and you have the most beautiful personality, and the most perfect eyes." I touched his cheek, and looked deep into his eyes.
"Chloe I…..I love you. I have loved you since the first time you looked into my eyes." I remembered that day clearly.
' Mrs. Talbot set me to peel carrots for lunch. I didn't dare tell her I'd never peeled one in my hacking my thunb, I got the hang of it.
As I peeled, my mind started to wander…into places I'd rather not visit. So I called in my best defense: turn it into a movie.
As traumatic experiences went, the last few day were the best film folders ever. But what genre would it be? Strait horror? Or psychological suspense? Maybe a combination of elements, surprising the viewer with-
"Peeling duty already?" a voice whispered." What you do to deserve that?"
This time, when I wheeled around, I didn't see a disembodied hand but a whole body. A guy, in fact, maybe a year older than me, a half foot taller and slender, with high cheekbones and dark blond hair worn in short, messy spikes. His almond-shaped brown eyes danced with amusement.
"You must be Chloe."
He reached out. I jumped back. The carrot leaped from my hands and bounced off his arm. A real arm. Attached to a real guy.
"I-I-"
He put a finger to his lips, then pointed at the dining room door. Beyond it, Mrs. Talbot was talking to Liz.
"Im not supposed to be in here," he whispered." Im Simon, by the way."
I was suddenly aware that he was standing between me and the exit. His smile was friendly, and he was definitely cute, but cute didn't count with a guy who had you cornered in a group home.
He backed up to the walk-in pantry, lifted a finger telling me to wait, then disappeared inside. I could hear him rotting around in the shelves. When I peeked in, he was taking down a box of graham crakers.
A kitchen raid? I couldn't help smiling. Guess it didn't matter wheather it was a group home or summer camp, guys and their stomachs didn't change. Simon pulled out an unopened sleeve of crackers.
"The other one's already open," I whispered, pointing.
"Thanks, but he'll want the whole thing. Right, bro?"
I followed his gaze over my shoulder, and let out a yelp. The guy standing behind me had to be six feet tall, with shoulders as wide as the door. Though he was as big as an adult, he'd never be mistaken for one. His face could be used as the 'before' picture for acne cream. Dark hair hung in his eyes, lank and dull.
'I-I-I-" I swallowed.' I didn't see you there."
He reached past me and took the crackers from Simon. When he started to retreat, Simon grabbed the back of his shirt.
"We're still teaching him manners," he said to me." Derek, Chloe. Chloe, my brother, Derek."
"Yeah." Derek's voice was a low rumble." Identical twins."
"He's my foster brother," Simon said." So I was just about to tell Chloe-"
"We done here?" Derek said.
Simon waved him away, then rolled his eyes." Sorry. Anyway, I was just going to say welcome-"
"Simon?" Tori's voice echoed through the kitchen." Aha. I thought I heard you." her fingers closed around the pantry door." You and Derek, always raiding the-"
She spotted me and her eyes narrowed.
"Tori?" Simon said.
Her expression flipped from simmering to simpering." Yes?"
He jabbed a finger toward the dining room door." Shhh!"
"Derek….I love you too." I smashed my lips to his.
Let me know what you guys think so far :D
