Man Of Honor-Ch 3

As the evening continued Savannah did everything she could to keep Derek away from Penelope and the rest of his family, she wanted them to spend time alone. Derek couldn't keep his eyes off of Penelope no matter how hard he tried, a fact that was making both Savannah and Anthony furious.

A few hours later Penelope said, "well tonight has been a lot of fun and I want to thank everybody for being here to celebrate with me and Anthony, it really means a lot to us". Anthony hugged her tight and said, "it sure does" and then he kissed her lips passionately, watching her kiss Anthony again was making Derek nauseated and to break the kiss he said, "yeah congratulations to the happy couple" as they had one more drink before everybody started gathering their things to go home.

From where she with his was standing Penelope watched as Savannah pulled Derek into a kiss, the thoughts of him kissing Savannah made her sick but if he was happy that's all that mattered to him. She had been in love with Derek since the day they met and sure they teased and flirted and he loved her but not the way that she loved him.

She dreamed of him every night and on the very night she met Anthony she was on her way to tell Derek how she truly felt and he was out with his tart of the month Jasmine so she finally gave up on getting her hotstuff her Mr. Right and she settled for Mr. Right now, Anthony". Penelope was pulled back to reality when she felt Anthonys lips on the side of her neck.

Derek looked around to see Penelope grinning as Anthony whispered something into her ear, Savannah pulled the conversation back to her by saying, "can you take me home Derek"?, he said, "huh, what"?, Savannah said, "can you drive me home, my car is in the shop and I took a taxi here tonight"?, he helped her put her coat on and said, "sure Savannah I'll give you a lift home".

As everybody headed outside Penelope watched as Derek opened his passenger side door and he grinned as Savannah slid inside, he then looked up at her and gave her his famous Derek Morgan smile as he walked around to the drivers side of the car. Anthony said, "you ready to head back to your place baby"?, Penelope said, "huh"?, Anthony kissed her lips passionately and then said, "are you ready to head home"?, her mind was on Derek until she felt Anthonys hand sliding up her thigh.

Penelope said, "home sounds good my love, sounds real good", he smiled as he started the car and pulled away from the curb and headed back to her place where he would hopefully continue his plan to get Penelope pregnant to keep her away from her true love Derek. As they headed back toward her apartment Anthony kept hoping that Savannah did her part and managed to get Derek into bed because the sooner she gets pregnant the better.

Meanwhile Derek pulls up in front of Savannahs place and says, "here you go Savannah"?, she said, "why don't you come in for a while, it's still rather early"?, he looked at his watch and said, "I really better head home". She put her hand on his lap and said, "please don't go, why don't you come in and have a nightcap"?, Derek smiled and said, "sure, why not, one drink isn't gonna hurt, right"?, she got out of the car and wrapped her arm around his waist and said, "right Derek, right" as they walked through her front door.
