Derek Or Luke-Ch 15
The next morning Penelope woke up with a smile on her face, she stretched and thought to herself, "last night with Luke was so much fun", she threw the covers back and got up and headed over to her closet and grabbed her clothes and headed through to the bathroom. She turned the water on and just as she was getting ready to remove her towel she heard a knock at the door.
She sighed and headed toward the door, she looked through the peep hole and smiled as she saw Derek and Hank standing there", she opened the door and Derek said, "you look beautiful baby girl". She stepped aside and said, "I'm in a towel hotstuff", he said, "yeah I know" as he wiggled his eyebrows as he carried his son into the living room and put him down.
Penelope said, "how are two of my favorite men doing this morning"?, Hank giggled and said, "gooddddddddd", Derek said, "we couldn't wait to see you this morning sooooo we hope it's okay that we came over so early". She said, "of course it is, you and my mini chocolate kiss are welcome here any time, day or night", Derek kissed her cheek as he handed her a cup of coffee and a chocolate muffin from her favorite diner.
She said, "let me grab a quick shower and change my clothes and then I'm yours for the day", Derek said, "ohhhh promises promises", she laughed and said, "what am I going to do with you handsomeeeee" as she headed back toward her bathroom. When he watched her butt sway back and forth he said, "I have a few ideas", he then looked down to see Hank playing in the floor with his trucks.
A few minutes later when she walked back into the room Hank was up on her couch watching cartoons and Derek was sitting beside him, she put her hands on her hips and said, "you two are adorable together, he's a mini you hotstuff". Derek pulled her into his arms and said, "morning goddess" before kissing her lips gently, when they pulled apart she said, "I'll show you a good morning hotstuff".
He sighed and said, "hopefully one day you will baby", he caressed her cheek and said, "soooooo after breakfast me and Hank are heading to the park and wanted to see if you wanted to go with us". She said, "that sounds like fun and that way you and I can talk about our date tonight sugar shack", he winked at her and nodded his head yes in agreement.
They sat there laughing and talking while they ate their breakfast and just as she was finishing up Derek said, "soooooo how was your date with Luke"?, she swallowed her last bite of muffin and said, "it was great, we had a blast". Derek said, "that's good, I'm glad you had a good time baby girl", she put her hand on his and said, "what did you do last night handsome"?, Derek said, "after dinner me and Hank sat down and watched the minions movie and then conked out for the night".
Penelope grinned and said, "awww that sounds cute, I wish I could have seen that", Derek said, "so do I baby, so do I", she looked down at Hank and said, "are you ready to go to the park sweetie"?, he nodded his head and squealed, "yayyyyyyyyyyyyy". Derek stood up and picked up his son and said, "sounds like he's ready" as the little family headed out the door.
When they got outside Derek said, "it's such a beautiful day isn't it sweetness"?, she looked over at him and said, "it sure is sugar shack", as they started walking toward the park Hank reached up and took Dereks hand and Penelpoes hand and giggled. Penelope said, "I can't believe how big he is already, it doesn't seem like he should be 3 already does it"?, Derek shook his head and said, "no it doesn't baby girl".
The closer to the park they got the more excited Hank was becoming and when he got to where he could see the swings he took off running, Derek instantly intertwined fingers with Penelope and said, "baby, we need to talk". She nodded her head and listened as he said, "I know what you're thinking", Penelope said, "ohhhh you do huh"?, he nodded his head and said, "yep, sure do".
Penelope said, "what am I thinking"?, he gently squeezed her hand and said, "you're thinking that if I had been in love with you for years that I would have told you and that I wouldn't have been with any of the other women, especially Savannah". He then continued by saying, "and your wondering if Savannah hadn't cheated on me if I'd still be with her".
Penelope laughed and said, "have I ever told you how much I hate profilers"?, they stopped walking and he pulled her into his arms and said, "I did tell you that I love you, remember when you were shot"?, she said, "I didn't know that you meant you loved me loved me, I thought you meant it the way you always did, as a friend", Derek caressed her cheek and said, "I did mean it the way I always have, you are the woman that I've always wanted, everybody knew it, especially Savannah".
Derek leaned in and kissed her lips gently and said, "and as for the part about would I still be with her if she hadn't cheated, the answer is no, I had started separation proceedings before I ever found out she cheated on me". Penelope said, "why didn't you ever tell me that"?, he said, "I didn't want to get you mixed up in my drama, I didn't want that for you, for us".
Penelope rested her forehead against his and said, "how about we go spend some time with our boy"?, Derek winked at her and said, "sounds like a plan" as they headed over to where Hank was playing on the swings.
