A/N: Hey Lovelies! Okay I am in love with this story because it is writing itself. I was gonna wait awhile to update but I couldn't do it.
I don't own DP but I own the change of plot. Anyways ENJOY! And ohh yeah Review!
I hate Vegas….and Derek
"Chloe, your aunt is going to go ballistic when she finds out" Rae said as she packed the clothes back into my suitcase.
"Rae don't you think I know that? But I don't really have a choice. I cannot be blacklisted from Hollywood." I say as I try to imagine what my aunt would say.
"Well what's the plan now?" She asked curiously
"Well Derek and I have to remain married. We are going to fly back to New York on Friday. And I guess I am moving into his house soon. Omigod. This is so weird." I say as I sit on the bed next to Rae as she rubbed my back while telling me everything will fix itself. As if I believed that.
"Well at least you are both based in NY. He could have been based in LA, and then you were truly screwed. Also Chloe, you didn't bring enough clothes to last you the week. You only brought enough for the weekend." Rae said, though she was only reiterating what I already thought.
"I know. I don't have enough money to buy clothes to last me a week." I say
"I think I can help with the clothing situation." Simon said as he walked into the room. I should have guessed they could hear us.
"How are you going to do that? Are you going to buy me new clothes in Vegas?" I snapped
I didn't mean to snap at him like that, I am just angry at myself for letting this happen.
"Well since Derek owes you a new dress already, you might as well get enough clothes to last you for the days you are going to be stuck here." Simon says
"Wait you want me to blow Derek's money on myself? No thanks I don't need any other reason for him to be pissed and angry at me" I say as I thought about the look he gave me this morning
"Actually it was his idea. He feels bad about the dress, even though he won't show or say he does. He left one of his credit cards for you to use. And he doesn't care what you buy as long as you don't max it." Simon explained with amused looked on his face.
"She can buy anything? As in cost is not a problem?" Rae asked incredulously
Simon laughed, "Money hasn't been a problem for Derek or anyone in our family in a while now. Anyways cost is not a problem for Derek. And since your married to him now, you either."
"Thanks Simon but no thanks. I don't want Derek's money" I said as I mentally calculated how much have with me.
"Well you don't really have a choice at the moment because I am sure you are not going to stay in the hotel room for the next week, so you are going to need clothes. And Mrs. Souza must live up to the buzz she has been getting for the last 46 hours." Simon said again with the amused look
"What do you mean 'live up'? People don't know who I am yet." I say
"Actually someone has confirmed who you are and now your face is everywhere so going to a public place and not being recognized is out of the question. So you must go shopping. Don't worry you can chose where you want to go. I suggest you get dress and get it over with now before the paparazzi figure out when you guys are staying." Simon said as he looked at his phone.
"Ugh. Fine. You have a point. Why me? Why does bad stuff happen to me?" I say knowing I won't get an answer
"I can drop you girls off at the mall a few blocks from here. My sister and girlfriend shop there, so I am going to assume they have great clothes. I will be outside waiting in the car, come down when you're ready." Simon said as he put the credit care in my palm and closed my fingers around it.
Simon walked out of the room, living me and Rae to our thoughts.
"So I guess we are going shopping then Chloe" Rae said as she stood up and grabbed my bag off the bed and handed it to me.
"Yeah I guess."
"Chloe, if there is any paparazzi, don't say answer any questions about Derek or his career. I say that because I don't think you know anything Derek yet." Simon said
"Great. Perfect. Just flipping perfect." I say
"Oh come on, I don't think Derek will be that bad of a husband. You might actually like him and vice versa. Just give him a chance before you shot him down" Simon pleads.
"Yeah Yeah, I will like him as much as I like Vegas right now." I say as I look around in Simon's nice looking car.
"So on the flight home, Derek and I will give you the background on his life and family and that whole shebang." Simon said as he pulled into an enormous parking lot, encased by multiple stores.
"So here we are. Just give me a call when you guys are ready." Simon said
"Okay, Thanks. See you in a few I guess." I say as I step out of the car
"So which store do you want to go to? Because there is an abundance of stores here." Rae exclaims excitedly
I look around for a store that looks the slightest bit familiar and my eye caught the Hollister, Joyce Leslie, Forever 21, Macy's and Sears stores.
"Let's see what they have in Joyce Leslie." I say as Rae beamed at my suggestion
We started to walk into the store, when I wondered how much money Rae has.
"How much money do you have with you?" I say as we cross the street and enter the store
"I have about $500 with me. I guess all that saving up does really help." Rae says as she picked up a shirt and put it against her chest.
"Yeah I guess." I say as I look around
"Oh come on Chloe. Just accept the gift his is giving you. But I still don't agree with staying with him to avoid being blacklisted" Rae said
"I don't want his gift and Rae, for the last time, I don't really have a choice." I say
"Yeah yeah"
"Well this is cute" Rae said as she held up a shirt that said 'Guess what? I don't care'
"Yeah it is." That's when I felt eyes on my back. Someone was staring at us. Also heard not-so-whispery whispers
"Omg I think that's her. It has to be. She looks exactly like the picture, Cass, Omg it's her."
"It looks like her but I am not sure. I still don't know what he would see in a girl, like Amber Denison looked better with him. I mean if I was lesbian, I would love to tap that. That gorgeous body and squeezable ass deserves someone awesome and sexy; that's not her.
"Cass, it's none of your business. You're just mad because it isn't you."
I turned around to see who was talking, and I see two blonde girls, maybe about 17 years old, sneaking peeks at me and Rae. Great, just fucking great. Now teenage girls are judging because they think Amber Denison would look better with his "touchable ass".
Fucking Derek, fucking up my fucking life.
Then I realized the two girls weren't the only people staring at us. I looked round and a bunch of people were staring at me and Rae who just tried to avoid eye contact with everyone. A woman walked up to me and said "Are you Derek Souza's new wife?"
I froze for a few seconds then realized had to answer her question '
"U-u-uh I-I- yeah I-I-I am. Can I help you with something?"
"I knew it was you from the minute you walked in. Mrs. Souza, please follow me for own safety, it seems that the store is getting pretty crowed due to your husband's fans following you. Is she with you?"
"Yeah she is" I say as I grab Rae's hands and dragged her with me.
The woman led us to a cute little backroom with a mirror and waiting chair, it looked just like the clothing stores in movies.
"Mrs. Souza, I wasn't aware that would be visiting our store today. If had been aware, I would have had an associate direct you to the VIP room." The woman said looking a bit remorseful
Are you kidding me? VIP room? Wow is all I have to say. Just wow.
"Why do you need a VIP room?" Rae asked
"Well fans can get a little crazy sometimes, especially the female fans, they can be very uncontrollable." The woman explained
I sighed, "Well we are about to pay for our stuff anyways. Do you mind checking us out?" I asked
"Of course not, I hope the other customers did not ruin your experience here."
"Oh they did not. I am just a little tired. I have had a long week." I say.
The woman checks us out then I call Simon to let him know that we were ready to be picked up. The phone rang 3 times before it was picked up.
"Hey Simon. Hi. Urm… we are done so do you mind coming to pick us up now?" I said, as I picked up the awkwardness in my voice.
"Actually I am already outside. I kinda figured you weren't the type to spend hours shopping. You and your friend can just come outside" Simon said
"Okay see you in a few seconds." I said as I ended the call
Rae and I walked outside the store to the front door and I was shocked to see what was waiting for us outside. Paparazzi. They were shouting at each other as they tried to get a picture of us from outside the store. So all those movies weren't over exaggerating about the paparazzi that bombard celebrities, oh God. I hate pictures. Now they are about 10 people out there trying to take my picture.
I felt sick to my stomach and I think if we weren't in public I would have thrown up on them.
Rae and I tried to pick our way through the crowd but that didn't work, every time we moved towards an opening in their wall of pictures, another photographer steps in it and completes the blockade. Then I felt a hand grab my arm and I almost screamed, I turned around to see the one and only Derek Souza holding my hand and pulling me out of the crowd. I turned as we left to see the photographers following us, as they took more pictures. I can already see the headlines; 'Souza saves new wife from overbearing paparazzi', 'D.S's new wife is shocked stiff by swarm of paparazzi during an afternoon shopping trip'
Fucking Souza
Derek opened the door and Rae and I slipped in. I sunk into the chair in relief. Simon turned around and smiled at me and said "Hey. How was shopping?"
"Great. Just awesome." I say
"Well glad to hear that. You might as well get used to it. And Chloe we have had a slight change of plans. The tournament was moved to this weekend because of some dumb shit going on at the arena. So you and Derek are gonna have to fly back to New York on tomorrow." Simon explained while Derek remained quiet and he kept his eyes on the road as if he was pretending he was alone in the car.
"Wait you're not flying with us?" I say in panic because I did not want to be along with Derek. I swear the guy blamed me for all that's happened "No, I am not. Is that a problem?" Simon says as he smirked behind his brother's back
"N-No I-I-It's not." I say
And Simon laughed out loud and every just stared at him like he was nuts. I saw Derek shoot him a look that said I-am-going-kill-you.
Then I realized what Simon was laughing at. He was laughing because Derek and I were going to be stuck on a plane together for 5 hours.
Alone. Together. No other person
I suddenly felt the need to puke.
Simon saw my face and shook his head and said "Oh come on, Derek isn't that bad to have around. He will protect from all the guys that are going to be hitting on you on the flight. Wait never mind, Derek don't do that, you might hurt someone."
I looked into the rear-view mirror and I caught Derek's eye. I noticed his eyes, those orbs held me there, I couldn't look away. Derek had green eyes that were full of mischief, and life. We stared at each other for what seemed like an eternity. Thank god, the light changed to green and he finally looked away. I took a deep breath, those orbs, so green, so alive.
"Derek make sure you play catch with Chloe on the flight." Simon said as he looked out the window.
We stared at him, as my face turned as red as Rae's nail polish.
"Oh you guys are disgusting. I meant Derek should tell you everything you need to know about him and his family. Dad and I will meet you guys in your house on Thursday." Simon explained
Then the thought I had been pushing out of my head for the last 46 hours, popped back up.
Aunt Lauren is going to freak.
"Ma'am, may I have your ticket?" the lady at the plane entrance said
I handed her the ticket and her eyebrows shot up in recognition of the last name Souza and I sighed.
"You are in the first class flight ma'am. It's that way." I nodded thanks and walked away.
The lady did the same for Derek who didn't seem the least bit interested in the conversation she was nervously trying to make. Derek lead the way as we walked into the first class area, I was shocked by how quiet it was. No noise of people. Babies. People talking on the phone. None.
Derek lead us to our sits and we sat down while a flight attendant quickly made her way to us, to ask if we would like some drinks. She asked me and I asked for just apple juice. Then she turned to Derek and I saw her face. She was excited that it was Derek Souza. She helped herself to checking Derek out, while attempting to gain his attention by crossing her hand under her chest, to emphasize the size of her enormous breasts.
But the funny thing was that Derek seemed oblivious to the show the flight attendance was putting on. When Derek finally gave his damned answer and asked for water, she made sure to make a show of saying "I will be right back with your drinks Mr. Souza" and then as if she just realized I was there she goes " …..And Mrs. Souza". He was charming girls without even trying.
Fucking Souza.
"Well welcome to first class" Derek said
"I have been in first class before" I respond icily
"I know that. Daddy loves blowing money on his only daughter." He said with a chuckle
"H-H-How did you know about my dad?" I say
"Do you honestly believe I haven't had a background check done on you?" Derek said, finally looking me in the eye for the first time since we left the house.
Well damn Souza.
I shook my head.
"Okay so let's play catch up so I can sleep" Derek said
"Okay…" I said
"Okay. I am an MMA fighter. World champ. I have 1 sister and 1 brother. I live in Manhattan, NY. My dad's a lawyer. My brother is a graphic producer for our video game company, Telco Inc.-
"Wait, you guys are the owners of Telco?" I asked in shock
"Yup. Simon runs it most of the time because I have a lot of tournaments which you probably have to go to." Derek said as he rubbed his arm feverishly
"I have to go to your tournaments? Why? I have seen you fight, and you are not a very nice person." I say a little too loudly. I watched as a few people turned around to see what was going on. I shrunk back into my very comfortable sit.
Derek smirked and said " Aw thanks. That's a complement coming from you, considering you froze up while the paparazzi raped you with their cameras."
"How is that my fault? It's not my fault that I am not used to having cameras in my face!" I said on the verge of yelling, and once again turning a few heads.
"You might wanna calm your ass down Mrs. Souza before you end up on the news…again. I can already see the headline 'New wife goes ballistic during flight". Ohh I have a better one,' Souza's new wife isn't getting the D, is that why she is yelling on planes?' I can see that one on TMZ." Derek said as he busted into laughter.
And I suddenly began to wonder how many years of jail, I would get for strangling someone. Derek is an A-list asshole. And he can take his D and shove up his-
"Chlo, are you thinking about murdering me?" Derek said ruining my mental plot of his murder.
"No. I don't do that to people." I say while fixing him with a go-die-in-a-hole look.
Derek snorted and said "I don't even think you should try. You would probable get flung across the room. And that's if you tried that with Simon. You don't stand a chance against me."
"Aren't you full of shit?" I say, He is pissing me off.
But I need to stay calm I don't need another news article dedicated to me.
Derek just sits there and chuckles, then says" Has anyone ever told you that you are too small to get that angry? It's just weird. I guess big things do come in small packages."
I am done. Just fucking done.
"Derek leave me alone. I am going to sleep. Just wake me up when we get there. If you wake me for anything else, I am going to kick, where the sun does not shine." I say as I turn away from him and close my eyes.
"Goodnight Princess"
Ugh. Someone shoot me now. Please. I don't just do it.
A/N: This chapter was extremely long. It wasn't supposed to be. But shit happens. But I hope you guys like it. Derek gave Chloe a nickname, its Princess or Chlo.
I am doing something new, I don't know if anyone else on fanfic does this but yeah. I am going to be creating outfits that the characters wear, so you can get a good visual of what type of person they are. I will try to keep up with all the characters. You guys tell me if you think it's a good idea or not. REVIEW!
