Chapter 16: Seattle

Leah's POV

I think that this is the first time that I've felt truly and utterly happy in the last 9 years and that is saying something…

Derek has made my life completely happy. Maybe it's stupid to think like this, but it's the truth, his smile alone makes me smile; his touch sends electric currents down my entire body, whenever we're near, I feel totally content; things can't really get better than this.

I turn around to see the face of my beloved, when I find… nothing. Derek wasn't in the bed with me. I pouted wondering where the hell he was when I heard a chuckle coming from the door. Derek was leaning against the doorframe, wearing just a pair of black flannel pants, an amused smile gracing his pouty lips.

"I don't find the situation amusing, Derek." I said pouting at him.

He smirked and approached the bed. "Well, babes, I find the fact that you pout when I'm away from your bed, quite amusing." He said while he placed himself over me.

He lowered his face to my ear and whispered huskily. "You look so fucking sexy when you pout like that." He placed one hand over my hip, sending electrical currents all through my body and kissed me.

This kiss wasn't like the ones we'd shared before. This one was filled with such raw lust and want. He grabbed my bottom lip between his and nipped at it painfully slow. When he thought that his punishment was enough, he licked my upper lip. His tongue parted my lips and slowly entered my mouth. When our tongues touched, something in me ignited. It was liquid fire, spreading through my body, like lava. It crept from my toes to the smallest fiber of hair on my scalp. I grabbed his shoulder and pulled him to me, until every part of my body was touching his. The feel of his naked torso with my bare stomach was amazing, my whole body tingled, but I wanted more. When we were out of breath, Derek started trailing kisses down my jaw, then my chin, neck, shoulders. He then decided to bite the spot where my shoulder blade connects with my neck, making me moan loudly and wrap my legs around his waist.

I ran my nails through his toned back, making his hips buckle. I had to stifle a gasp when I felt how aroused he was, and god, he was freaking huge! I guess I should have expected this, the imprints have told me that werewolf have great stamina too, I can just imagine. I would never get tire- my train if thought was interrupted when I felt Derek's hands making their way towards my little sports bra; he looked me directly in the eyes and kissed me with a passion that could burn the whole freaking forest. He kissed my cheek, then my neck and ear, licking and biting my earlobe.

"I want you, Lee." he whispered huskily, while grinding his hips, to make his point quiet clearly. My eyes rolled to the back of my head at the sensation and I buckled my hip unconsciously making him groan.

"You have me, Der, completely; every part of me is yours to take baby." I said out of breath claiming his lips with mine again.

When he proceeded to grab my bra and started lifting it while kissing my collarbone, some soon-to-be-dead-person decided to knock on my fucking door.

"Fuck!" I hissed. Derek started to remove his hot and perfect hands from me, making me whimper. "Don't stop" I ordered.

"Babe someone's at the door." He said but didn't continue his retreat.

"I don't care, they'll leave." I said. "If they know what's good for them." I continued almost to myself.

When Derek's lips were about to descend on mine, the dead-wanna-be decided to knock again. I groaned and Derek lifted himself off me. I got up from my bed murmuring words that my momma wouldn't be proud of.

"You kiss your mother with that mouth?" Derek asked amused. How could he be so calm about this? I'll never know, but it's been almost 9 freaking years since I got laid, and the person that was at the door was gonna get 9 years of frustration in punches!

"No, Der, I kiss you!" I said annoyed.

"You don't see me complaining." I contemplated ignoring the door and attack him but the fucker knocked again.

I rolled my eyes and got out of room, Derek couldn't come, because of obvious reasons…

I smelled him before I got the door, Ohh he was so dead!

I opened the door to reveal a very amused Emmett. "You have a death wish right?" I asked seriously.

That just made him smile wider. "Hey, hey, She-Wolf, don't shoot the messenger!" He said while raising his hands in the air. "It's not my fault that you're in heat." He smirked.

I should have punched him, I really should have…

"But I'm not here to talk to you about your sex life, or lack of it," He continued wriggling his eyebrows. "Ness and Jake want you guys to go with them to Seattle, it's already 10am, so you guys can make it in 2 and a half hours, if you take your Cayenne, you can be there by lunch time!"

"Seattle?" I asked, he decided to ruin my perfectly perfect morning, by telling me that Ness and Jake wanted to go to freaking Seattle?

"Yup! Seattle, so you guys get dressed, Alice already put a couple of Derek's clothes in the guy's room, so make it quick, you still have to eat!" Emmett finished excitedly; you would think that he was the one that was going to go.

I just stood there and nodded, closing the door in his face, Renesmee is so dead!

When I got to my room I noticed that the shower in my bathroom was running. "He is seriously trying to kill me" I murmured under my breath. I could just imagine now, his naked body under the hot water, his tanned skin glistering under the bathroom lights, steam emanating from his skin because of his hot temperatu-

"Hey, babe, you OK?"

I opened my eyes to find a wet Derek in front of me, with just a towel wrapped around his waist. Droplets of water where running down his stomach, his hair was drenched, and I could see small traces of steam emanating from him.

I'm so gonna kill Renesmee.

"Babe?" Derek asked again, I could see he was fighting a smile, bastard.

"What? Nothing, nothing is wrong. I assume you heard Emmett, so go get dressed" I said nonchalantly.

Derek pouted and placed himself in front of me. "Aren't you gonna give me a kiss?"

I placed a chaste kiss on his lips and before he could grab my waist I ran for the bathroom. If he touched me, we were never gonna make it to Seattle.

"Not fair!" I heard him shout, but I was already turning on the shower.

"Your fault! You were the one that wanted to open the freaking door!" I shouted back.

I could hear his booming laughter as he walked to the guys' room. I quickly ran out of the bathroom and locked my door; we didn't need Derek finding me butt naked in my room… not yet.

I quickly showered and dried, applied my orange-scent body lotion, some make-up, and deodorant, brushed my teeth and ran to find my clothes. I suppose I have to dress as if 64.4°F is really cold for me.

I put on my black undies and bra, some gray skinny jeans, a dark purple strapless, beige jacket with "fur" on the top and my purple and golden Adidas. If we were going to Seattle, I sure as hell wasn't gonna carry myself on heels all day long!

*(Pic on my Homepage) *

When I was ready, I descended the stairs and walked towards the kitchen where Derek was waiting for me while drinking cranberry juice –from the bottle, I might add- he was wearing light blue-jeans, some silver Adidas and a blue button-up with the sleeves rolled up, his hair was still wet and all-over the place He looked sexy as hell!

*(Pic on my Homepage)*

He smiled at me sheepishly when he saw me looking at the bottle in his hands. I rolled my eyes and he quickly put the bottle in the fridge back and took my hand to leave.

We made our way towards the mansion hand in hand smiling at each other, before we got to the porch steps Derek spun me around, kissed me and whispered. "Don't worry, we'll finish what we started this morning soon enough." My breath hitched at the prospect of being intimate with Derek.

When we entered the mansion, no one was around, just Ness and Jake sitting in the sofa.

"Hey, Leah, Derek," Jake nodded while hugging Nessie closer to him.

Nessie rolled her eyes at Jacob and got free from his grip.

"Hey, Leah, glad you're coming. Jake doesn't really help in the shopping department; he thinks everything looks good on me." She rolled her eyes for the second time and came to give a hug. I hugged her back and then she went to hug Der too. "Breakfast is on the kitchen table. Mom and dad are in the cottage. Carlisle is working at the hospital. Alice and Rosalie are hunting and Emmett and Jasper are helping Esme with her especial project".

I smiled at that. Derek was gonna be so happy when the pool was finished. Esme assured me that it was gonna be finished by today, vampire speed and all.

Nessie went to sit back with Jake again and they started watching some old movie on the TV. I noticed Jake was dressed just like Derek, but his shirt was white and his shoes green and black. Nessie was another matter, she had tight skinny blue-jeans, a red D&G coat and tall navy boots with a peep-toe-hole. poor girl, well, I guess vampire genes make her feet like super strong or something, because there is no way I could walk all day long with 5 inch heels.

*(Pic on my Homepage)*

Derek and I made our way towards the kitchen where we found gigantic sub-Sandwiches. We ate quietly and quickly, when we were done, we cleaned the plates, got some bottles of water out of the fridge and made our way towards the living room where Jake and Nessie were already making-out on.

"Get a freaking room you guys! I don't really want to see this." I shouted at the top of my lungs. Nessie jumped like feet high and Jake landed on the floor with a loud thud.

Derek and I couldn't hold it anymore and started laughed so hard that tears were streaming down our faces.

"Shut up you guys! What the hell is your problem, Leah?" Jake grumbled while getting up and taking a red-faced Nessie's hand.

"Oh my god! You should have seen your faces!" Derek, who was now on the floor, laughing.

When we finally stopped laughing we made our way towards my baby and Derek decided to drive. I wasn't objecting. We talked all the way to Seattle and sang old songs like Fireflies, You Belong With Me, 4 Minutes, Bad Romance, Bedrock and so on, it was a lot of fun, and I loved that Jake and Der were getting to know each other. Jake was my best friend, and I really wanted them to get along.

After 3 long hours we were in Seattle. Derek wanted to see the famous Space Needle, so that is where we first went. I loved the Space Needle, Jake and I brought Ness here 3 years ago, and it was still magnificent, 605 feet tall, I don't think even a werewolf could survive a fall.

Derek and Jake were like kids on Christmas, joking around and laughing. It was nice; Nessie started taking pictures of them goofing and then called them.

"Hey Guys! Picture!" Nessie yelled. Derek and Jake posed, showing the camera Mount Rainier and making funny faces.

We laughed and let them be kids for a while.

"So…" Nessie said. "Did you know that seven parachutists have leaped from this tower since its opening? But that is totally illegal without prior consent. Four jumpers were part of various promotions, and two were arrested." She finished.

"Cool, what about the seventh one?" I asked.

"He didn't make it, ran through a building and died." She answered seriously.

"O. K, that was random." I commented. "Now, what did you really wanted to say to me?"

"We're leaving in a year, Leah." She said.

"What? What do you mean leaving?"

"Don't worry Leel's, you know we wouldn't leave without you guys. It's just that, it's gonna be 10 years since we moved here. Carlisle hasn't changed a bit. You know four years ago Alice started putting make up on him so that he looked older. We can't keep postponing it." She said sadly.

"I… I, well, I guess this was bound to happen. I'll talk to Derek tonight…" I said sadly, I really wanted Derek to stay longer in WA, but the circumstances were hard. I didn't look a year older, at least Quil and Embry were younger when they phased and they look like they were 25, their real age…

"On other terms, tonight…" Nessie said wriggling her bronze eyebrows at me.

I blushed at the thought of it, I really didn't want to wait any longer, and it wasn't like I was a virgin or something. But Derek was way more experienced than I was. I just had sex with Sam a couple of times before he went MIA and then left me for my cousin Emily. He was virgin too, so that is a big negative. I didn't want him to think less of me, or get bored.

"Um, what about tonight?" I asked feigning ignorance.

She rolled her eyes at me. "Come on, I'm not stupid! I can see it; the sexual tension between the two of you is almost palpable Leel's!"

I smiled at that.

"Ha! I knew it! We so have to go to Victoria's Secret today!" She whispered excitedly, "This is gonna be so much fun!"

I rolled my eyes at her and we continued talking about "the big night" as she now calls it, and another couple of things.

After a while, we joined the guys and took pictures, at 3pm, we were all starving, so we decided to eat at the restaurant that was here in the Space Needle, called "SkyCity". It was fun, the restaurant featured a carousel dining floor, and we talked till our waiter came. Ness ordered the chicken parmesan, Jake did the same, Der ordered the New York Steak and I ordered the Roasted Chicken.

We ate, talked and joked through the meal. Jake was talking to Derek about the shop and how it has been going, he also decided to tell him about the James incident, the Icky-Vicky battle and the Volturi-not-so-battle… Derek was fascinated, he had never killed a vampire and by the glint I his eyes, he was pretty excited about finding one to kill, so not gonna happen.

When the guys decided they where full, we left the Space Needle and headed downtown so that Ness and I could go shopping; though Der was quiet interested in shopping too, something about sports and shoes.

We parked under Pacific Place and headed for the mall. I loved this mall, you had from Old Navy –which Alice wouldn't approve of, but I loved- to BCBG, Benetton and Cartier.

Jake and Derek decided to go by themselves and left us- the women- to shop for our "things". What crappy boyfriends, I mean boyfriend and husband! But it was better this way, I really wanted something cute for tonight.

Just the thought of it, made my whole body shake, but not the phase kind of shake.

"Come on Leel's! It's our last chance to shop for your things while they are away!" Nessie said excitedly, taking my hand in hers and walking towards VS.

"Ok, Ok, I'm coming, gosh! It's not like I'm gonna be wearing that stuff for long." I answered while she continued dragging me towards the store of doom.

"Stop being so dramatic Leel's, man like that, Jake always starts by-" I had to cut her rant about what-Jacob-Black-liked.

"Ok, I'll go willingly, just, just don't mention sex and Jake in the same sentence again, like ever again. He's like a brother to me! And that's just wrong"

She giggled and blushed; I guess she was remembering something I surely didn't want to know.

When we arrived to the store, I was assaulted by the quantity of stuff they had. I mean, I always shop here; it's just that my main focus was PINK and bras with cute colors. Yes, I'm girly like that, now lace and pearls; that's another whole different subject, how the hell didn't I notice this before?

There was a whole department of just tiny and lacy stuff, in black, white, navy, red –gag-, brown… God, kill me now.

Nessie went immediately on shopping mode -too bad she didn't inherit from her mother her hate for shopping, too bad, Alice and Rosalie created a little shopping-monster- she started handling me different kinds of lingerie, some were pretty but others made blush. Wasn't lingerie supposed to cover up the "intimate" parts? What the hell, that is freaking transparent!

Nessie continued murmuring to herself. "Too prude" "Too bitchy" "She doesn't like red, or pastels", and so on, that went on till my hands were practically full with things.

This wasn't gonna happen. I decided to take matters in my hands. "Ok Ness, this, are definitely not coming with us," I said pointing to a white set. "Not this, or this, or those, nope, definitely, NOT!"

Green undies, what the fuck? When I finished my inspection there were just two sets left, a Lacy Black and Beige set and a Navy Blue Set, both were cute, really cute.

"I'm taking these ones." I said, pointing at both Sets.

"Ok, they are pretty, but what are you gonna wear tonight?" Nessie asked me while getting some pieces for her.

"Um, how about the Navy one?" I asked her.

"Yeah, it's pretty, and it won't look that you weren't trying too hard." She said smirking at me.

"I am NOT trying too hard!" I said perplexed. I wasn't, right?

She lifted a perfectly arched eyebrow at me, challenging me to say otherwise.

I rolled my eyes at her. "Whatever, I'm just gonna get some panties and shorts to sleep on, meet you at the line." She nodded and started picking out a few other things.

I got out of the danger zone and entered PINK, heaven, just heaven; I picked some colorful boy-cut-panties and some cute shorts and tanks.

After we finished in VS, Ness and I continued shopping for a while, until we ended up in Gymboree, "Um, Ness, what are we doing here?" I asked.

"Oh, did you forget? Bree's turning 4 on two weeks; we might as well buy her gift now".

"Oh right, good idea!"

Bree was Sam and Emily's three year old daughter. She was a cutie. She looked just like Sam and Emily; a perfect combination of them two. The thought of children sent a pang of jealousy through me. Sam's words echoed in my head, "But you can't have babies" I would love to have a Mini-Derek, a perfect combination of us two.

"Hey Leel's, you there?" Nessie concerned voice got me out of my reverie.

"Um yeah, I'm fine, what did you find?" I asked her, my question distracted her, and she started showing me the things she thought little Bree would like. We ended up buying tons of stuff for Bree and some presents for her brothers too. Ness didn't think it was fair that they didn't get anything.

When we finished, we decided to buy Charlie's gift too. He was turning 53 on the 17th of November and has been talking about a new fishing radar for a while now. We went to the sports and hunting store around the corner and went for the fishing section.

We were almost ready when I heard a strong voice saying. "Luke Ulvinne, you are absolutely not getting a gun! Are you crazy?"

"Ugh, come on Dee! They told me that La Push had this gigantic wolfs and stuff. I'm not gonna kill it, but I have to find one! Maybe I can find tranquilizing darts or something." My eyes widened at this. They couldn't, if that kid really shot a wolf, they would phase almost immediately back.

I walked towards the gun section and found a really pretty girl standing in front of a boy. She must have been like 21 or something. She had hazel gray eyes and light brown hair, clear russet skin, and was almost as tall as me. Maybe one or two inches shorter. She was looking disapprovingly at who I'm guessing was Luke. Luke was not as tall as the guys on the Rez, maybe 6'1", or 6'2". He looked nothing like her; just his facial features, but that is where the similarities ended. He had golden-brown hair, tanned skin and deep grey-blue eyes. He looked like 18 or 19 and pretty annoyed by the fact that his sister was prohibiting him from buying a gun. Thank god!

*(Pics of Dee and Luke on my Homepage)*

"Well, guess we'll have to keep an eye out on them, right?" Nessie murmured besides me. I hadn't noticed she was standing next to me.

"Yeah, I guess." I mumbled, as I approached them. "Hey, I'm Leah. I couldn't stop listening to your conversation. You guys living in La Push?" I asked sweetly.

The girl I supposed was named Dee blushed. Maybe she thought she was talking too loud, poor girl, she didn't know we were supernatural beings. "Um, yeah, why?"

"Oh, don't worry. We are from Rez, too. It's been a while since someone moved there" Nessie said.

"Oh cool, well, um, because of some circumstances my brother and I moved to the Rez, we arrived on Sunday, we are just buying some stuff for the house." She smiled at us, she seemed to realize something and continued talking. "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm Dianna, but everyone calls me Dee, and this is my brother Luke. He's continuing his Senior year on Forks." she said pointing at her brother, urging him to say hello. He was petrified in this stop. He was ogling Nessie and me, like if we were candy. I think I saw some saliva coming out of his mouth. Yuck!

Nessie blushed and giggled at the attention and I just rolled my eyes. That's what happens when kids are homeschooled. "Hey, I'm Leah and this is Nessie." I waved at him; that seemed to make him pop out of his la-la land. He gave us a cocky smile, I have to admit the kid was cute, but Derek was much cuter, or maybe I'm just biased?

"Hey cutie, you got a boyfriend?" He asked Nessie. Dianna rolled her eyes at her brother.

That's when I sensed them and smirked.

Nessie giggled again and said. "No, I don't have a boyfriend".

Luke seemed to be happy about her response. But before he could say something Jake appeared behind Nessie, wrapping his arms around her and saying. "Nope, she just has a husband." He smiled and kissed Nessie's cheek and grabbed her left hand in his where her beautiful wedding ring was placed.

Dianna smirked at her brother and let out a small laugh. Luke just looked a little annoyed, but he perked up again and turned his smile to me. Which turned into a frown when hot strong arms wrapped themselves around my waist, I smiled sweetly at Luke making his heart beat a little faster, I think Derek growled a little, but I couldn't tell.

"Husband?" He asked a little annoyed.

I shook my head "No."

"Boyfriend?" He asked again, I just nodded. "So there is still chance?" He smirked.

I giggled and Derek answered him, "I don't think so, kiddo." he chuckled and held my waist more tightly.

"I'm not a kid. I'm 18." He murmured lowly, but we could all hear him, minus her sister of course.

I kissed Derek's cheek and introduced Jake and Der to Dee.

"Der, Jake, this is Dianna and her brother Luke, they just moved to the Rez".

Derek waved from his stop behind me and Jake smiled, recognition in this face, "You're the Ulvinne kids right?" He asked.

"Yeah, how did you know?" Dianna asked curiously.

"I'm Jacob Black, my dad is Billy. He told me you guys were coming to live in your parent's house, oh, um, sorry" Jake said sadly.

Confusion clouded Ness, Der and me. Jake knew them? Dee and Luke looked a little hurt, but quickly masked it away.

"It's ok, no problem, yeah. I talked to Billy a month ago when we decided to move to the Rez. He helped us find someone who could fix the house and paint it.", she explained. Now I remember, the Ulvinne house, my mom told me that a while ago, a couple with a little girl lived there, when the girl turned two, her mother was killed and his father moved with the little girl to Seattle and never came back. I guess that's why her brother and her don't look so much alike. "So what parts of the Rez do you guys live at?"

"Oh, we don't live on the Rez. We live in Forks, though we visit regularly" Nessie said.

"Oh, so I guess I'll see guys around?" Dianna smiled.

"Yes, it could be so much fun! Why don't we exchange numbers?" Ness asked.

Dianna perked up at this; maybe she thought we didn't want to be her friends. She seemed like a nice girl and it would be nice to get to know someone that wasn't a supernatural being, besides the imprints.

We exchanged numbers and before we left I said. "Oh, by the way Luke, the hunting or handling of animals in the Rez is prohibited by the Reservation Laws. I suggest not buying a gun, or any other stuff".

Dee smiled at this and nudged her brother. "Told ya," she said in a sing-song voice. We laughed and said our goodbyes again.

When went to the register line and paid for Charlie's gift and left the store, Nessie asked what happened in there and Jake told the same thing that my mom had told me. Dee's mom was killed when she was two and her dad moved with her to Seattle. Dee's dad remarried and when Dee was only four, he had Luke. That's why they look so different. Six months ago, their parents died in an accident. They couldn't find the bodies anywhere; a month ago Dee decided to move to the Rez with her brother. I guess they are trying to forget.

We made our way towards the parking lot and Jake took us to a restaurant called "Palisade". It was already 7 so we decided to eat before we headed back home. The restaurant was really pretty and fancy. I think our clothes weren't completely appropriate but apparently our credit cards were.

We sat in a table for four and ordered our meals, while we were waiting Derek spoke. "We bought something for you guys."

Jake and Derek smiled mischievously at each other. They reached into their pockets and each retrieved a Tiffany's box, everything seemed to evaporate around me. I stopped listening to Jake and Nessie and just concentrated on Derek. He smiled at me brightly and pecked my lips.

"I saw this, and I immediately thought of you, open it." He told me.

I grabbed the box out of his hands and opened it. Inside there was a heart shaped white gold locket with the word LOVE imprinted on it, inside there was a little picture of Derek and me. It was one of the many pictures we'd taken at the Space Needle. We were both looking at each other smiling goofily. On the other side of the locket was an inscription with "For Forever and Ever" written on it, and at the end L&D.

"It's beautiful, babe." I smiled at him. I could feel a single tear roll down my cheek. Derek smiled and kissed the cheek where my tear was resting. He then kissed my nose, my forehead, eyelids, chin, and finally he claimed my lips, he kissed me sweetly and slowly.

"Not as beautiful as you Lee. I love you, for forever and ever" He whispered against my lips.

"I love you too, for forever and ever." I said, and kissed him again.

Our perfect moment was interrupted by a "COUGH" "COUGH".

I chuckled and turned to Jake and Nessie. She was wearing a gigantic smile, she was wearing a yellow gold heart shaped pendant on her neck, in it was written "I love you" several times, and it was just like her.

"Let me see yours, Leel's," Ness said.

I showed her my locket and she gasped. "It is beautiful, Leah. Wow, Derek! I didn't know you had it in you." She teased him.

Derek rolled his eyes at her and grabbed the locket from my hands and placed it around my neck. The necklace was like triple and had two little circles at each end, "It will extend when you phase, so you don't have to worry about it when you do." He answered my unspoken question.

"So I will never take it off," I smiled at him and kissed him chastely.

When we finished eating, we headed for the car and Jake decided to drive, he and Ness were in the front and Derek and I cuddled in the backseat. He kissed my cheek and face all the way to the house and whispered cute little things in my ear.

When we arrived to Forks, anticipation began to settle in. I decided to put my Navy Set on before we left the Mall and in just minutes Derek and I were finally gonna be together, together in an intimate way-kind of together.

When Jake parked the car, we said our goodbye and I decided to get our bags in the morning. Jake and Nessie ran towards their house in the forest and Derek and I made our way towards mine. We couldn't get there fast enough; both our hearts were hammering on out chests…

"Leah," Derek whispered, stopping in the middle of the path to my house.

"Yes," I answered nervously, as I noticed that his hands were trembling slightly.

"I-um, well, we are alone." he said nervously, as he swallowed hard and smiled sheepishly at me.

"I've noticed." I said, bobbing my head like an idiot. Derek's free hand moved to my waist and he slowly pressed his body against mine. The heat of his body surrounded me in a protective circle. I've never felt so appreciated, loved, treasured or even wanted. I could see the love in his eyes. I could never love anyone that wasn't Derek.

"Leah," he paused, as he dipped his head closer to my face. "You're the only woman that I want to be with. I want to spend my life with you. Will you let me show you my love and devotion?"

"Der-"the words died on my lips, when he his lips came crashing down on mine. I lost my equilibrium, but his strong arms pulled me to him, as he carefully lifted me. He carefully walked down the threshold that led to my house and made his way up the front step porch. He slowly placed me down and took my hand in his. "Make me yours, Derek." I commanded in a low voice.

He chuckled softly and placed the house key in the lock and opened the door. He turned around to face me and whisked me off my feet and carried me inside the house. He maneuvered to lock the front door, before he sauntered up the stairs. We were walking down the upstairs hall, when he suddenly halted.

"Leah," he said huskily. "I'm giving you the opportunity to stop us from going any further than a kiss, because," he stopped, as he ambled towards my bed and gently placed me on the mattress. "I won't be able to stop myself. You are like an addiction to me, Love. You have the drug and I intend to make you mine, baby."

"I'm yours," I whispered, when he began to remove his shirt and tossed it on the floor. He slowly crawled on the bed, until he was hover above me.

"You are mine, by words, but tonight, angel," he said softly, as he kissed the sensitive skin of my neck. "You'll be mine in body, spirit and soul, Leah."

I curled my fingers in the thickness of his hair and closed my eyes. This was going to be the night that Derek and I became one. It was going to be perfect. The moon was full and the sky was crisp and clear. There were a few stars that shone brightly, but to no avail. The light of the moon was brighter and it softly bathed Derek's skin and the stillness of the night was going to be decorated with our passionate love.


There you have it!
