Hiding in the Shadows

86. Torturing Mark

Derek rested his head on his elbow and watched Meredith snore. She looked so peaceful...didn't sound peaceful, but that was life with Meredith. He leaned down and blew in her ear. She stirred and grumbled a moment before settling back into her sleep. He grinned and let his fingers trail under the covers and up her leg to her...

"Oh!" She yelped. She turned her head abruptly towards him, glaring.

He let his thumb caress her forehead lightly.

"It is too early to be frowning." He said.

"No, it is too early to molest me." She looked at the clock. "Five? Five? You woke me up at five on our day off for what? Sex?"

Derek shrugged.

"It seemed like a good idea at the time."

She reached behind her, grabbed her pillow and whacked him with it.

"Ow! Why are you always hitting me with things?" He asked.

"I don't hit you with things." She protested.

Derek looked pointedly at her.

"The bedpan."

"You were annoying me."

"The tubing."

"Again with the annoying."

"The soap dish."

"I missed."

"I ducked."

"Whatever." She said, pouting.

"You know what turns a frown upside down?" He asked.

"Oh god, it's Barney." She groaned.

"Who?"

"Giant, annoying, cheerful, purple?"

Derek shook his head.

"Dinosaur circa 1990's?"

Derek still shook his head.

"You have nieces and nephews!"

Derek suddenly started laughing. Meredith realized he was teasing her and reached for her hardbacked book to throw at him. He grabbed her and pinned her underneath him.

He leaned down to her ear.

"So violent." He breathed.

She shivered and stilled her wriggling body.

"Do you feel what you do to me?"

Meredith felt his hardness against her stomach and nodded.

He reached down and slipped his finger under her panties and into her wetness.

"Feel what I do to you?"

Meredith moaned.

"Do you?"

She nodded.

"Answer me.' He demanded.

"Y...yes." She stuttered.

"Do you want me?" He asked.

She looked him in his eyes.

"Always."

Derek ducked down to kiss her, her legs wrapped around his waist and then...

The door flew open and slammed against the wall.

"What the fuck?" Derek twisted his head to see who had just interrupted them.

Then he made sure Meredith was covered up.
