Shout out to Bre for reviewing! You're on fire with good ideas! I'm using the one you left me as well, it's perfect :P
Dani's p.o.v
After i've managed to get over what just happened, I decide to clean up the loft a little. I go back up to Cora's room, knocking on the door.
"Come in" she says. I open the door, going in. She gives me a smile, on the phone. I point to her rubbish bin as i'm getting ready to put the rubbish out. She nods, giving me a thankful nod. I take the bag out, leaving her to her phone call. I have a mini heart attack when I glance in and see the pregnancy test. But, I remember what happened earlier and I calm down. Pregnancy tests are like the plague, they're friggin' scary. Unless you're trying then they're everything. But I doubt Boyd and Cora were trying, judging by how freaked out she was. I grab the rubbish from the kitchen, getting ready to put it all in a big rubbish bag. The loft door opens and in walks Derek. I smile at him.
"Morning-" i'm cut off when he grabs me and kisses me. He pulls back, me a little dazed with suprise.
"Morning" he smiles, letting me go.
"Uh.." I try. "Hmm"
"You okay?" he asks with a smug grin. I clear my throat.
"I'm fine" I say, fighting a smile.
"What are you doing?" he asks.
"Putting out the rubbish" I tell him.
"You shouldn't be doing that" he says.
"I live here too Derek, I should be helping out" I say.
"No, I got it" he says, reaching for the bag. I move it so he can't grab it. He raises an eyebrow at me. "Dani, what are you doing?" he asks, amused.
"I'll give you the bag if you do something for me" I offer.
"Okay" he nods. "What do you want?" he asks, staring down at my lips.
"No, not that" I chuckle. "Well yeah, that too but that's not what I mean" I back track. "I want you to make me breakfast" I grin sweetly. He chuckles, shaking his head fondly.
"You're an idiot" he teases.
"Please Der" I pout. "My bacon's never as crispy as your's is"
"Fine" he agrees. "But I want something from you as well" he says as I hand the rubbish over to him. He's so sweet like that. He refuses to let me pay rent, won't let Cora either. The loft practically pays for itself as he owns the building but still, I like to help. He was weird about me cooking or cleaning in the beginning, he said I didn't have to be obligated to do it. We had a talk and I told him I want to help not because I feel obligated but because I want to contribute to the house, to the family. He understood after that but there's still times, like now, where he gets weird about it.
"And what's that?" I ask. His eyes still on my lips, come up to meet my eyes. I smile, leaning in and kissing him. I pull back, dropping another soft peck to his lips. "Long morning?" I ask.
"The longest" he sighs. "I'm gonna get rid of this, make us breakfast" I grin widely. "Then i'm dragging you back to bed with me" he says. "I could use a few more hours"
"So could I" I nod. "Good idea"
"I'll be back up in a sec" he smiles, leaving again. I chuckle to myself. How the hell did I get so lucky with him?

Cora ended up joining us for breakfast. We sit out on the deck and eat.
"You feeling okay Cora?" I ask her, the girl quieter than usual.
"Yeah, much better" she smiles.
"What happened?" Derek asks, burrowing his eyebrows.
"Nothing" Cora says evenly. "I was just really..tired, stressed out this morning" she says. "But i'm fine now thanks to Dani"
"No problem" I say. Derek smiles softly. His eyes fall to me and he's got this unreadable look on his face. I look at him, confused. His lips unturn a little before he looks back to his food. That was a little strange.

Derek and I head back to bed. The sun's been shining over the bed so it's nice and warm. We slide in. I stretch, yawning and relaxing into the mattress. Derek's arms come around my sides and he rests his head on my stomach softly. I smile, raking my fingers through his hair. He's been acting a little different since he got back today, it must have been hectic at the bank. I don't blame him for being stressed, he has to file through and do all the accounting for every loft in the building that's being rented which is almost all of them. His nuzzles his face closer to me, eyes closing. He's right, he could use some more sleep. I find i'm okay, I stay up and soothe his hair as he sleeps. My phone buzzes on the bedside table. I lean over and pick it up, opening the text.
Morning Dani. Just checking in to make sure you're okay, that Derek's not hurting anymore either. -John
I smile as I read it. As much as he objected to Derek being my boyfriend in the beginning, look at him now. He's texting to make sure he's alright.
Morning :) We're both okay, thank you for asking. How're you? How's Stiles? -Dani
We're both doing great. We'd like to have you, Derek and Cora over for dinner sometime next week if you have the time. -John
I'm glad to hear it. And yes, we'll have the time. Let me know when you're available and we will be there :) -Dani
Okay, I have to go to work but i'll be in touch. -John
Okay, have a good day at work, kick some criminal ass ;) -Dani
Alright lol :P -John
I have to stiffle my laughter at his 'lol'. I put my phone back down and settle back into bed. I close my eyes, feeling sleepiness wash over me.
