Penelope smiled again before getting serious "I can ask you something?"
"Of course, Shoot, beautiful" he replied, taking a bite of lasagna to his mouth.
"Why now?" she asked, approaching more to him "Why have you taken this step now?"
Derek gulped food. Then, without answering the question of Penelope, took a big gulp of wine. "Do not know," he confessed at the end, with sincerity, "I thought this could be our time"
"What does that mean?" she asked confused.
He put his hands over hers before spoke again, with a slight smile on his lips. "Do we have to talk about this now? Would not you prefer to take the dessert or go for a walk?"
Penelope rolled her eyes, shaking her head. "I think I'll take a walk... alone"
Derek frowned, surprised, as he watched her get up. He did not know why, but it was clear that everything had been complicated.
She went to the door, slowly, and sat on the edge of the porch. Still looking at the sky, Penelope tried to find the answer to her own question. She was not angry with him. She just was afraid to suffer. Her insecurities made her on the edge of an abyss, ready to fall off a cliff. She was afraid to give her heart and end fatally wounded.
Her eyes filled with tears, remembering old wounds that broke her soul. Penelope had felt a lot of pain because of love; these men had hurt her at some time of their relationship.
However, she did not want to surrender to Derek, if he was not in with his whole being. She could not live a romance with him, for he wanted to be with their baby, or for he decided to settle down.
She needed to know that he really loved her, not as a brother or a friend, but as a man. She loved him as a woman. She was in love with him
"Are you mad at me?"
Penelope turned to look at him. The gesture of worry she saw in his face, made her feel a great tenderness. She smiled sweetly, extending a hand to him. "Come here, you fool"
Derek smiled as he sat beside her, more relaxed. He put an arm around her shoulder, pulling her into him, before leaving a kiss on her temple.
"If you're not upset, why have you forsaken our dinner?" he asked softly, "Tell me, baby"
She pressed closer to him, still looking at the sky, "I'm sorry, sometimes I behave that way. My mother always said that I loved to draw attention" she joked, trying to lighten the mood. "That was the reason I was always hanging around the neighborhood singing a stupid song about cows and astronauts, wearing a hot pink tutu."
Derek laughed at the image she had described, "Do you fancy going to the lake?"
"Are we going to swim at night?" Penelope asked incredulously, before drawing a mischievous smile on her face "I love the idea"

They sat on the edge of the lake, their legs submerged in the water, and their hands intertwined. "Do you know that Dirty Dancing was filmed here?"
Derek looked away from the clear water of the lake, to focus his eyes on her, "Why in the world would I know that?"
Penelope stood up, pulling her hand away from him. "What will you do?" Derek asked with a smile, fully aware of her intentions.
"I want to swim in the lake," she replied as she took off all her clothes, except her underwear, "Do not come with me?"
"Do you really think I'm going to undress? You're crazy, "he said with a hearty laugh, without looking away from her body. "I have a better idea ... Come here and eat me with kisses"
She left her glasses on the ground, before sitting over him, "You do not want to be naked in the water, but you will feel great having sex outside?" Penelope asked against his lips, her breath crashing against his mouth "You are very bad example for teenagers, Agent"
Derek put his hand behind her neck and pushed her face gently, stirring their lips. He began giving small bites on her lower lip before catch it between his lips.
She decided to stop thinking for a moment, carried away by him.
His hands slid inside her panties, caressing her bottom, while Penelope took the opportunity to get rid of his shirt.
He dropped his mouth to her chin, drawing a wet path to her ear, "You want know why I have taken this step now?"
"Yeah..." she said breathlessly, her hands caressing his bare back
"Because I realized that I don't want a test tube baby, I want a baby born of our love..." he whispered with a weak laugh "Because I've always been in love with you ... Because I have not stopped to imagine a life with you ... Because I'm tired of being a coward ... Because don't want to lose you again ... "
Derek drew back a little from her, his eyes searching her gaze. "I love you so much" she replied, caressing his face, before starting another kiss.
His hands placed under her breasts, gently caressing her skin. His mouth was lost between her breasts, leaving wet kisses on her flesh.
Derek heard her moan, and lifted his left hand to her breast, massaging gently.
Penelope rested her feet on the ground, while her arms chained to his body. Then, using all her strength, she rose from her feet ... causing both to fall into the lake.
I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me.
Love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed.
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.
When Derek got to surface, she was laughing crazy like, leaning against the edge of the lake.
He approached her with feigned anger, "You have ruined a beautiful moment between us. Shame on you"
"Excuse me, handsome," she replied fun "Our kisses were not being too wet for my taste ..."
At last, he has to be at her side, placing his body against hers. "All this sounds funny, evil witch?" He asked in his husky voice, while his thumb played with her turgid nipple. She replied with a groan, smiling.
"I knew you were obsessed with my tits," she said with a chuckle "Did you think I did not realize every time you looked at my cleavage?"
He just ignore her, placing his mouth against hers. When it became necessary oxygen, Derek put her legs around his waist "You want a wet kiss?"
"Yes ..."
Derek turned to kiss her passionately, hungrily, thrusting his tongue against hers, covering every inch of her mouth.
Then I saw her face, now I'm believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried.
In a move that she did not expect, Derek dunked her in the water, as he kissed her mouth.
"Is it wet enough?"
"I have not clear ..." she replied, looking for another kiss submerged.
Derek fulfilled her desire, immersing their entire bodies.
When their heads again come to the surface, she began kissing his neck, her hands caressing his nape. "Mmm ... You taste so sweet ... you really are a God of chocolate"
He could not help but throw his head back, his breathing increasingly agitated.
I thought love was more o less a given thing,
Seems the more I gave the less I got.
What's the use in trying?
All you get is pain.
When I needed sunshine I got rain
"I think we should get out of here ...," he suggested, stroking her waist "the storks do not accept orders placed from the water"
"And I think that Rossi does not want the stork receive any request from his home" she recalled, before returning to kiss him.
"I know ...," he said with sad gesture, before putting a smile on his face "So I thought it would be good to sleep in a tent"
Then I saw her face, now I'm believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried.
