Man Of Honor-Ch 10
Penelope opened the curtain and said, "hotstuff, I can't reach this zipper", he said, "here baby let me help you", he set his phone down and reached for her zipper. When she felt his hands on her body she wanted to turn around and crash her lips against his but she said to herself, "you can do this, don't kiss him, don't kiss him".
Derek closed his eyes as he unzipped the dress and as he slid his hands down her back he sighed, he sighed because their was nothing he wanted more than to kiss her, claim her, make love to her and make her his in every way. When he was finished with the zipper he said, "there to go sweetness".
She turned around and said, "thank you hotstuff", she leaned in to hug him but a loud crack of thunder caused her to scream, Derek wrapped his arms around her and said, "it's okay, I've got you, I've got you". He held her for a few minutes before the power flashed back on, they pulled apart and Derek touched her cheek and said, "you're so beautiful".
Penelope felt her heart racing and she put her hand on top of his and said, "I I I am"?, Derek said, "you're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen", Penelope said, "Derek I" and then his lips descended on hers. The second their lips touched they both felt like they were on fire, the need to get closer was so forceful that Derek deepened the kiss by thrusting his tongue inside her mouth.
Penelope wrapped her arms tighter around Derek and moaned against his mouth, their tongues battled for control for what seemed like forever before they heard Moan say, "you guys alright back there"?, Derek pulled back and said, "yeah, we'll be right out". He touched Penelopes cheek and said, "baby girl I" and she said, "Derek I better get dressed".
Derek nodded his head and said, "I'll be out front with Mona", Penelope nodded her head and said, "o o okay, I'll be right out", Derek nodded his head and said, "I meant it baby girl, I think you're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen" and then he stepped back through the curtain. Penelope touched her face and it was hot, so so hot and she whispered, "and you're the sexiest man I've ever seen".
Moan looked up to see Derek walking toward her and said, "is she okay"?, Derek said, "yeah, yeah, she's fine, she's getting dressed", Moan said, "so did you tell her"?, Derek said, "I was going to but one thing led to another and I kissed her". Mona said, "and did she kiss you back"?, Derek smiled and said, "yes, yes she did and Mona"?, Mona said, "yeah"?, Derek said, "I didn't want to stop kissing her, I didn't want to stop touching her".
Derek blew out a deep breath as Mona said, "tell her Derek, tell her how you really feel and you're gonna see that she feels the same way", Derek sighed and said, "I need to try to get us home tonight". Mona said, "not possible, they were announcing as the power came on that the main roads out of here are blocked and closed for the night", Derek ran his hand over his head and said, "well I guess we'll have to try to get a couple of rooms at the hotel up the street".
Penelope walked out of the dressing room with her dress in her hand and smiled as she headed up to join Derek and Mona", Derek smiled and said, "well sweetness I have some bad news". She said, "bad news, what bad news"?, Derek said, "the main roads out of here are closed because of the water", Penelope said, "so what are we going to do sugar shack"?, Derek said, "we need to try to get us a couple of rooms at the hotel up the street".
Mona said, "let me call Jeffery and see if I can't get you guys some rooms", they nodded their heads and watched as she walked over to the counter and grabbed her cell phone. Derek said, "baby about" and she raised her hand and said, "please don't tell me that you're sorry or that you regret kissing me", he said, "I would never regret kissing you, not ever" as he touched her face.
Across the room Mona glanced over her shoulder and saw Derek touching her cheek and she said, "Jeffery I need a favor", Jeffery said, "for you love, anything", Mona grinned and said, "this is my plan" and Jeffery listened as Mona filled him in on her plan. A few minutes later she walked over to the couple and said, "I have good news and bad news, which do you want first"?, Derek said, "good news".
Mona said, "I was able to get you guys a place to sleep tonight", Penelope said, "and the bad news"?, Mona said, "Jeffery only had 1 room so it looks like the two of you are going to have to share". Penelope and Derek looked at each other and their hearts were both racing and Derek said, "well then let's go grab something to eat and then head to the hotel baby girl"?, Penelope nodded her head and after paying for her dress and hugging her friend her and Derek made a run for the car as the rain poured.
Mona smiled as she watched Derek and Penelope pulling away from the curb, she waved and said, "something tells me that after tonight Penelope is only going to have eyes for one man, Derek".
