Man Of Honor-Ch 17
Derek and Penelope were so happy as they walked from the truck to the front door and as Derek put the key into the door they heard a car pull up and the engine go off. They turned around to see Savannahs smiling face as she got out of the car, shut the door and made her way up the sidewalk toward the front porch.
Derek held up his hand and said, "what do you want Savannah, you know you're not welcome here", Savannah smiled and said, "we need to talk lover", Derek said, "no, no we don't, now go". He opened the door and Penelope walked by him and headed inside, Derek stepped inside the house and tried to shut the door but she put her hand up and stopped him.
She said, "we need to talk Derek", he said, "no Savannah we don't, what we had was one night and nothing else", she smiled and said, "ohhh it was definitely something else all right". He shook his head and said, "I'm with Penelope and we're going to have a baby so please, please go", she said, "she's pregnant, Penelopes pregnant"?, Derek said, "not that it's any of your business but yes".
He said, "now if you'll excuse me I'm going to go check on Penelope" and again he tried to close the door and she said, "Derek I found out something that's going to change your outlook on things". He laughed and said, "nothing you could say would make me change my outlook Savannah, I'm with the love of my life finally and nothing or nobody is going to stop that".
She handed him a piece of paper and said, "this will change things", he took the paper and said, "what is this"?, she said, "I knew you wouldn't believe me so I got proof, hard proof". Derek said, "proof of what"?, she said, "just look at it, read it and then you'll understand", he opened the letter and started reading and when he was finished he looked up at her a"nd said, "no, no this can't be right".
Savannah smiled happily and said, "but it is, it is right, I'm pregnant and we're going to have a baby", Derek said, "this isn't possible", she said, "ohhh but lover it is, I'm sure you haven't forgotten our night together". Derek said, "no, sadly I remember that night", Savannah said, "you couldn't get enough of me Derek, the way you moaned my name as you slid in and out of me, that night we were magic, we are magic".
Derek said, "we're not anything Savannah, you're a one night mistake, one that soooooo wasn't planned, I don't even know why it happened, one minute we were sitting and talking and then the next". She finished his sentence by saying, "you were ripping off my clothes and carrying me up the stairs to my bedroom, a room where we spent so many nights making love".
He shook his head and said, "how do I even know this baby is mine"?, she slapped his face and said, "how dare you, of course this baby is yours, I wasn't with anybody else, only you Derek, only you". Penelope walked to the door and Savannah said, "congratulations on being pregnant, it's a "very happy happy time isn't it"?, Penelope said, "yes it is, Derek and I are very excited about the news".
Savannah said, "aren't you going to congratulate me and Derek", she looked back and forth from Derek to Savannah and said, "congratulate you for what"?, Savannah said, "I found out today that I'm pregnant, around 6 weeks". Penelopes heart plummeted when she realized that the child she was carrying might not be Dereks at all that it could belong to Anthony.
Derek said, "alright Savannah you've told me and showed me your proof now go", she said, "sure thing lover but we're going to need to talk", she looked at Penelope and then back at Derek and said, "soon and alone". Derek and Penelope then stood there watching as she turned around and walked down the steps and headed up the walk that led to her car.
When she pulled away from the curb Penelope looked at Derek and said, "Derek we need to talk", his heart sank as he watched his future turn around and walk back into the house.
