The Lyric Of Love-Ch 8
When they walked into Dereks place Penelope said, "the last time we here was amazing and then", Derek put his finger over her lips and said, "this time can be amazing to". She smiled and when he removed his finger she said, "ohhhh it can huh"?, he nodded his head and said, "yepppp but before we have dessert how about we have some food"?, she said, "sounds good I'm starving".
He said, "I'll go whip us up something and be right back, please make yourself at home", she kissed his lips and said, "thank you angel fish", he winked at her and said, "I'll be back in a few minutes". She walked over to the fireplace and sighed happily, she couldn't believe how much he'd changed since high school.
As she looked at the pictures on his wall she smiled, their was pictures of him and his parents, some of him and his sisters and one big one of his entire family. She looked at him and could see so much of his father Hank in him, she remembered the day he was killed and her heart broke for Derek and his family.
When she was 18 her parents were killed by a drunk driver, she was out at a party they didn't want her going to and she was out way past her curfew so they went looking for her. She was shattered after her parents died, she blamed herself for the longest time because if they hadn't been out looking for her then they might still be alive.
She shook herself from her thoughts and turned to face his sound system, she said, "mind if I put on some music"?, he said, "no, help yourself, music sounds good". Penelope looked through his music and said, "ahhhh, an oldie but a goodie", as she put it into the CD player and hit play. Derek grinned as the music filled the room, he said, "ahhhhh yes now that's olddddd school music right there".
He grabbed 2 glasses of wine and then joined her in the living room, they both walked over to the couch and sat down, he handed her a glass and said, "here's to an amazing concert tonight". They clinked glasses and she said, "from your lips hotstuff" and then they both took a sip of their wine, Derek put his down on the table but Penelope held hers.
Derek said, "dinner will be ready in a few minutes", she sighed and he said, "what's wrong"?, she said, "just wondering what else Scott's gonna pull that's all", Derek said, "well no matter what it is we'll make sure you're alright". Penelope smiled and said, "thank you sugar shack", Derek said, "soooooo tell me do you like performing for all of your many fans"?, she took another sip of her wine and put her legs under her and said, "I love it".
Penelope said, "are you one"?, he said, "one of what"?, she said, "one of my many fans"? he said, "I sure am, I have every CD you've ever put out", she said, "wowwwww a real die hard fan huh?, Derek laughed and said, "yeah guess so". They were pulled from their conversation when the oven dinged, he said, "I'll be right back with us some food", she grinned as she watched him walk out of the room.
It wasn't long before he was walking into the room with a tray, he put it on the table in front of them, he said, "I hope you enjoy it" and took the lid off and she said, "is this your moms chicken alfredo"?, Derek said, "the one and the same". She picked up her plate and took a bite, she closed her eyes and said, "
ohhhhhh that is delicious".
Derek said, "glad you like it", she winked at him and said, "it's delicious", Derek said, "so baby girl", she said, "yeah"?, he said, "ever get tired of traveling and think of settling down"?, she said, "sure, if I ever meet the right guy". He leaned in and kissed her lips and said, "ohhhh believe me gorgeous you've met him, you've definitely met him" and they both grinned as they continued their delicious food.
