Chapter 6 – To Bed to Bed we go-

Derek's POV

Why did I do that! I'm so stupid, it's just she was there and it reminded me so much of the days when she was mine. Now she isn't talking as we make the bed. She has somehow found 1000 pillows to build a wall between us.

She was already dressed in her pajamas, little pink shorts with a white tank top. Once she finished her wall she climbed into the bed. I got in after her, and she shut off the lights. We were now just laying in a bed alone silently. I wanted to talk to her but I was afraid she would tell me to just shut up.

Casey's POV

I felt Derek turn over so his back was facing me. And that's when I noticed he decided not to wear a shirt to bed. Of course.

"Der-ek! Put a shirt on." I whispered at him, I could hear him start chuckling.

"Case, it's not a big deal. I have pants on still but it's too hot to wear a shirt as well. Would you rather I took my pants off and put on a shirt." I couldn't see his face but I knew he had a smug smirk on. I just knew it.

"Fine, just remember to stay on your side of the wall." I couldn't deal with him being that close to me without a shirt on.

But soon I felt exhausted the plane ride took a lot out of me.

Derek's POV

Casey was asleep soon after her little issue with the shirt. And I turned over and moved all the pillows from between us. I refuse to sleep this way. And there she was. She had fallen asleep facing me, I scooted very carefully over to her so my face was level with her. I use to love watching her sleep, she was so beautiful.

I've missed laying in bed with her, even when we were still married. Not being able to be in bed with her killed me.

Casey's POV

I felt really warm when I woke up and was confused. There was weight on me. When I opened my eyes I saw what was causing the weight and warmth. Derek! We were somehow facing each other with his arm draped across my waist with his hand just above my butt. He had pulled me close to him in his sleep. Or I moved closer. Ugh this is why I put the pillows up. Where did they go?

I didn't want to move at first. I figured maybe if I acted like I was still sleeping then once he woke up he could move first.

Sadly I realized I missed this. I missed waking up to him still sleeping peacefully. But soon he started stirring and I faked sleep. He woke up and I felt something on my forehead. Derek was kissing my head!

"I still love you Casey Venturi. I just wish you still loved me too." He whispered to me before climbing out of the bed. And putting the pillows back between us before I heard him walking up the stairs.

Derek loves me…..
