MEREDITH SHEPHERD

I slowly woke up in bed. I tried to roll onto my side but as soon as I moved my entire body ached in pain. I shifted a bit to get comfortable before relaxing back in his arms.

I laid my head against his chest as he continued to sleep before my eyes fell shut and I fell to sleep.

I woke up again and felt that Derek wasn't in bed anymore. I rolled over to where Derek was as a large amount of pain shot through my body. I groaned in pain as I heard a door open. I heard him walking over to me and then felt him kiss my cheek.

I stirred a bit and moved the pillow a bit, and laid my head back down with another groan. "why do you keep groaning?" he asked me. "what do you mean?" I asked him. "when you were sleeping every time you moved you would groan," he says. "my entire body aches of pain" I replied. he walked over to me and sat down on the side of the bed.

he moved the covers from my leg and started massaging my legs softly. "mm, where's Greyson?" I asked, carefully moving to lay on my back. "he's still asleep" he responded. "how long was I asleep for?" I asked.

"I was asleep for three hours and you were asleep for five," he said as he pressed his thumbs against my calves and thighs. "and he hasn't been up since we got on?" I ask. "he was up for a bit. he cried for a bit but I fed him and he was quiet and then fell back asleep" he answered.

"why has he been sleeping so much lately?" I say. "he's teething," he said. "what else hurts?" he asked me. "everything," I say. "we'll get you into a hot bath when we land," he said moving to sit next to me. "sit up," he said. "Derek... my entire body aches I can't sit up," I said quietly.

he put his arms under me and lifted me up, and sat me down on the bed against the headboard. "ow, Derek!" I exclaimed. "sorry," he said kissing my cheek. "sitting doesn't help with the pain it just makes it worse!" I whined as the pain in my body got worse.

"I know, that's what I'm going to six" he sat behind me. I moved forward a bit. he put his hands on my back and started pressing his thumbs against it, and he massaged my back. "mm, that hurts and feels good at the same time" I moaned pushing my back into his hands. "good that means it's working" he said while kissing my neck. he pulled away, kissed my back, and went back to massaging my back.

"how much longer till we land?" I ask. "around ten," he said. "why so long?" I groan. "it'll be worth it when we get there" he kissed my shoulder blade. "what part of Italy are we going to?" I asked. "you know where we go when I travel, we always go to the capital of the country," he says. "so Rome?" I say. "yes, we're going to Rome" he kissed behind my ear.

"how do you feel?" he asked. "sick, and in a lot of pain" he answer. "you can't be sick when we go on vacation," I said. "I'll be fine, I'll just take some medication when we arrive," I told him. "you'll be okay... I'll make sure your okay," he said kissing my cheek. "thank you" I smiled.

he continued to massage my back until I started getting tired. I leaned back into his chest. he wrapped his arms around my waist. I laid my head on his shoulder and closed my eyes. "if I fall asleep and someone walks in pull the covers up" I told him". "Okay," he said kissing the top of my head.

as I was starting to fall asleep I heard Greyson start crying. "can you get him while I change? I think he's hungry" I said while sitting up. "stay here, I'll go get him and you can feed him right here," he said before getting up. he kissed me softly on the lips before leaving the room.

I leaned back into the soft headboard. the bed was really comfy and soft with thick warm covers, and I really soft mattress. having a rich husband really does have its perks especially when he has a really big co- "here he is, I think he wants you" Derek said walking into the room with Greyson who was still crying.

I took Greyson from his arms and he calmed down when he saw my breast. I pulled him closer to my chest and let him latch on. he latched on quickly and started sucking with force. "I think he was really hungry. if he's crying and I'm sleeping just wake me up" I told him. "I'm not going to wake you every time he cries, you need your sleep" he kissed the side of my head.

I leaned back and pulled the covers up a bit so they cover my lap whilst Greyson suckled. Derek walked around the room and picked up his briefs before putting them on and then getting dressed into some clean clothes that were in his carry-on.

"where did you put my carry-on?" I asked him. "I think it's in the other room, I'll go get it for you," you said before going into the other room, then came back into the room with my small suitcase. he placed it on the bed and opened it before pulling out some of my clothes.

"do you want to wear a night gown or shirt and shorts?" he asked me. "nightgown" I answered. he took out my clothes and placed them next to me on the bed. after Greyson finished eating he latched off. I handed him back to Derek and let him burp him. I picked up my clothes off the bed and got dressed.
