I have exams for the next two weeks so might not update as much. However if you leave some chapter ideas, I will work on them and upload ASAP. A lot of people wanted more Luke/Derek/George so here it is.
"This is nice, fishing with my sons" Derek smiles breathing in the fresh air, as they sat in their small boat in the middle of the lake.
"So nice" George replies sarcastically. If he was honest he would rather be anywhere else but when his dad asked him and his brother to go for some bonding time neither of them could exactly turn it down.
"You like it don't you Lukey?" Derek asks hopefully, as his sons grew older they didn't like to hang around with him as much but fishing has always been something they could do together, ever since both of them were just kids.
"I literally would rather be anywhere but here" Luke grumbles pulling his coat around him tighter.
"You two used to love this lake, remember we would come down with your mum and Ella then all go swimming?"
"That was when Luke was even crazier" George smirks nudging his brother in the ribs
"He certainly was a handful" Derek laughs "But he was my little boy"
"Isn't that cute? Little Lukey" George grins pulling his brother in to a headlock. Luke pushes him off laughing "Get off me Georgie"
"You two grew up so quickly it feels like yesterday we went swimming"
"Dad you sound like one of them old people reminiscing please stop" Luke jokes
"Old person?" Derek eyes his son
"Well your younger days are behind you now dad, I mean in a few years all of your kids will have moved out, you kinda are getting old" George explains half heartedly
"Don't remind me" Derek replies sadly "You'll always be my boys though" He smiles pulling his sons closer to him.
*7 years ago*
"Lucas! Don't run away from me!" Meredith yells after her 7 year old son who was refusing to put on any sunscreen. Nobody ever understood where he got his energy from because he didn't sleep much he was just constantly on full battery.
"And where do you think you're going?" Derek smirks down at his little boy, grabbing him as he ran past and lifting him over his shoulder. Derek propped him down in front of Meredith and held him still whilst she applied sun screen to his shirtless stomach and shoulders. Luke couldn't stay still for a second though, he was grinning always looking around. On the rare occasions he looked at Derek long enough for them to make eye contact, he could see pure innocence in his son's bright blue eyes. He just hoped he would always be like that.
"Are we going or what?" Grumbled 11 year old George. As he approached his teen years his attitude got worse and worse every day it was the same for Ella, she was a year younger than her brother but her attitude was already a lot worse. Meredith couldn't imagine how she would cope with them as teenagers.
"We're going soon buddy" Derek smiles at his oldest "Have you put on sun screen?"
"Yes" George lies, he might have been older than his brother but he hated putting that stuff on just as much.
"No he hasn't! Georgie's lying!" Luke shouts
"George, come here and put some on" Meredith orders her son handing him the bottle
"I don't want any on" He argues
"Either you put some on I'll do it, it's your choice" Meredith offers. She knew which option he would choose.
"Fine" George snaps grabbing the bottle from his mother's hand.
"Hey drop the attitude" Derek narrows his eyes at his son.
"Yeah drop the attitude" Luke echoes grinning up at his older brother.
"And you stop repeating everything I say" Derek laughs poking his son in the ribs
"And you stop repeating everything I say" Luke repeats
"Luke" Derek warns
"Luke"
"I'm serious buddy, listen to what I'm saying but don't repeat it" Derek replies starring directly at his very hyperactive son.
"Okay then, where is Ella?" Luke asks looking around.
"Ella is here" Replies a voice and in walks Ella wearing her swimming costume ready for their day at the lake.
"Okay, is everyone ready to go?" Meredith asks her family
"Yes!" A chorus of replies echoes across the house, the loudest of course being the youngest.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Once they arrived at the Lake. Everyone jumped out of the car and started bringing their stuff out. Everyone except from Luke who decided he couldn't wait to get in and ran off. He jumped in to the lake and started swimming out, he could swim but being only 7 he wasn't a very strong swimmer. The loud splash of him jumping caught everyone's attention and they all turned to see him half way out in the lake and already out of his depth.
"Luke!" Derek shouts. He notices his head slowly dropping below the surface and sprints in to the lake. George was close behind being a very strong swimmer. Meredith and Ella stand in shock. Meredith had her phone out in case they needed to call for help.
Derek reaches Luke just in time and carries him out of the lake. He sits him on the blanket they had laid on the floor and allows him to catch his breath. Luke coughs up some water but soon recovers.
"Shouldn't we phone an ambulance?" Ella asks worried for her brother.
"No, he's fine. There's two doctors here I think it'll be fine" Meredith smiles at her daughter before pulling the rest of the stuff out of the car. She decides to leave her son to Derek, who looked angry enough to drown the kid himself.
"Don't you ever do something like that again! If you want to go in you wait for someone else to go in with you! What if nobody realised you had gone in and then we turn around and see your dead body floating on the water? What then Luke?" Derek shouts at his son. He always tried to keep his cool with him because he was only little and he didn't always understand consequences.
"I don't know" Luke mumbles looking at the floor
"Yeah, you don't know! So next time don't be such an idiot and think first, you're very smart Luke! Use that intelligence!"
"Sorry dad" Luke apologises with tears in his eyes.
"I just worry about you buddy" Derek smiles pulling his son in for a hug.
"Are we going to go in or what?" George asks impatiently
"Yes!" Luke grins jumping off and running ahead.
"Luke!" Derek shouts after him again. His son turns around innocently looking up at him and Derek can't help but smile "What did I just say?"
"To wait for someone else" Luke murmurs walking back over to his brother and dad.
"George will you go in with your brother please" Derek instructs
"Yeah sure" George smiles at his little brother. Lifting him up and giving him a piggy-back.
*End of flashback*
"That day will always be in my memory, one because it was the day I realised you will never listen to anything I ever say" Derek grins pointing at his youngest son "But also because it was a day I got to spend with my family and it was the last time we all enjoyed it"
"We'll always enjoy spending time with you dad, just maybe not fishing" George laughs softly
"Fishing is great, it's peaceful if you're not with Luke" Derek jokes smirking at his son
"Hey! You guys can't say stuff like that anymore because I have a medical condition which makes me like that" Luke pretends to be offended
"Course we can little brother" George playfully hits him in the arm
"You know when we say it we never mean it Lukey, we love everything about you, even all your…quirks" Derek replies sincerely
"Yeah…quirks…" George grins
"I still love both of you despite your 'quirks' so you can both shut up" He grins widely. Moving back slightly to avoid a punch in the arm from his brother but falling back in to his dad who wraps his arms round him tightly "Awh my little boy" He repeats jokingly much to Luke's dismay but George's amusement.
