Author's Note: Hey guys, I know it's been a long while without an update. Sorry about that. Here's a chapter for you! More Dizzie goodness. Enjoy.
I DO NOT OWN LIFE WITH DEREK OR THE CHARACTERS.
Chapter Five:
I couldn't stop thinking about what happened tonight. Everything was so surreal. I can still taste Derek on my lips. I can feel his fingers brush my body. I want to get lost in him, again. I can't believe this is finally happening.
Even the best dreams taste bittersweet. I finally get 'have' him, but no one can know. We have to act normally, which means that Derek is still going to be shacking up with his slut-of-the-day. I grimaced to myself. And I… can't act like I'm strung-up on him. I guess I better practice my flirting…
I tossed and turned, trying to get comfortable. I gave up and went to open my window. I sat and watched everything for awhile. It's amazing how much better everything looks under night's blanket. The cool breeze is nice. I can never sleep when it gets too hot. I shut the curtains, enough so the breeze wouldn't be too much, but I could still feel it. I peeled off my shirt and stepped out of my shorts and got back into bed. I watched the stars from my bed… Hopelessly thinking about how much nicer it would be if Derek was next to me.
I don't remember falling asleep, but it couldn't have been for too long – it's still dark outside. I wiggled around, trying to get comfortable. I cozied up next to an exceptionally warm pillow. I yawned and snuggled into it. I jumped when I felt an arm around me. I sat up with a start. I looked next to me and saw a tired Derek.
"What are you doing here?" I whispered as loudly as I could.
"I couldn't sleep."
"Well, go sleep somewhere else. What if they see you in here? Then we're both screwed."
"You're such a kill-joy, but you're probably right." He got off my bed and headed for the door, then turned around. "If you're kicking me out, can I at least have a goodnight kiss?" He asked quietly.
Does he really have to ask? Like I'm going to tell him 'no'. I nodded. He sat down next to me and put a hand on either side of my face and brought his lips to mine. I sighed. Even when he wakes up, he smells amazing. He got on top of me and I lay back on my bed. It wasn't hard to keep up with him. We weren't in any hurry.
He started sucking on my ear and it became really hard to sit still. I dug my fingers into his back and squirmed underneath of him. I clamped my mouth shut, but a small moan still managed to escape my lips. I felt Derek grow harder, against me. I wiggled out of his embrace.
"This isn't a good idea." I tried to catch my breath. He smirked.
"It sounded like you thought it was a pretty good idea, to me, Liz." His smirk widened.
"I don't think I can stay quiet if you keep doing that." I blushed.
"That was the idea." He whispered, bringing his mouth closer to my ear. I glared at him. He groaned, audibly. "You look so sexy when you're pissed." I rolled my eyes and just like that his lips were attached to mine. We rolled around the bed, fighting for dominance, never breaking the kiss. I jumped my phone went off, on my nightstand. I moved my mouth away from his, only to have him start on my neck. I gasped and tried to reach for my phone. It's Jace, this guy I started talking to. I put it down and push away from Derek.
"As much as I love this, and I do, we should probably call it a night." I said, still trying to regulate my breathing. Derek pouted.
"Alright, but I'll find a way to get my 'Lizzie fix'." I snorted.
"I have no doubt about that… SO, how is this going to work? I mean, we're still allowed to bring people over, right?" I asked. He knows what I meant by 'people'. He nodded.
"We're going to have to keep up appearances. We have to be 'normal'."
"Alright, well, then expect someone over tomorrow." I told him. He scoffed.
"Moving on so fast… I see how it is: can't have my ass, so you settle for anyone else's." He teased. I rolled my eyes.
"Oh, please. Don't be so dramatic." I got off the bed and helped him up. I led him to the door and told him goodnight without any additional goodnight kissing. I got back into bed and invited Jace over tomorrow. It should be interesting…
