med school roommates

chapter 16

"Mer.. mer.. merrrrrrr" Derek shakes me awake. "Go awayyyyy!!" I whine, opening my eyes. "I'm bored" he says. "I'm sleeping" I groan.

He jumps into bed next to me, wrapping his arms around me from behind. I smile, snuggling into him. I turn around in his arms, wrapping my arms around his waist.

"What time is it?" I ask. "10" he says. "Why are you awake at 10?.. no school today" I ask. "I can't sleep.. I think I drank too much coffee yesterday" he says. I chuckle softly.

"Fine.. I'm awake now.. what do you wanna do?" I sit up. "Kiss you" he says. He gives me loads of soft kisses. I smile against his lips.

"I'm still tired" I whine. "I'll wake you up" he smirks, pulling me onto his lap. I giggle. "Can you make breakfast?" I ask. "Yes I'm hungry too" he says, picking me up. I giggle as he carries me to the kitchen.

He puts me onto the stool at the counter. "How do you look so beautiful all the time?" He steps between my legs, looking into my eyes. "Practice" I grin. He chuckles.

I put my hands on his jaw, kissing him softly. I giggle against his lips, wrapping my arms around his neck as he picks me up. I wrap my legs around his waist and he carries me to the couch.

He sits down, with me straddling his lap. "Food later?" he suggests. "Sounds good" I shrug, kissing him again. I run my fingers through his hair as our tongues fight. We pull away as our apartment door opens. Our moms walk in.

"What are you doing?" He asks. "Your landlord is coming to check out the apartment tomorrow.. we just need to clean up a little" Carol says. "Oh, we could've done it" I say, climbing off of Derek's lap. I grin as I hear him sigh.

"Its okay.. we wanted to check on you anyway" Carol says. "Don't do that" Derek says. "What?" She chuckles. "Don't smirk.. just coz me and mer are dating doesn't mean you have to be weird" he says. I giggle. She rolls her eyes.

"We're just gonna clean a little.. go back to.. whatever you were doing" my mom smirks jokingly. I giggle as my mom walks into my room and Carol walks into his. He rolls his eyes.

I grin, sitting sideways onto his lap. "Come on.. we both knew they were bound to freak out when we started dating" I say.

"They're a little too happy.. its annoying" he says. I giggle. "Wanna tell them we decided it won't work out?" I raise my brow. "They'd kill us" he says. I giggle.

"At least they approve.. weren't you a little scared they wouldn't like us dating?" I ask. "A little" he says. "I'm glad they do" I say. "Me too" he sighs.

"But wedding planning? Seriously?" He says. I giggle. "We've been on two dates.. we're not even officially boyfriend and girlfriend" he says. His words sting like a bee. "Right" I play it off with a chuckle.

He sighs. "I'm gonna go help them with my room" he kisses me softly, lifting me off of him. He puts me onto the couch before walking into his room, leaving me in my thoughts.

I know derek isn't a commitment guy but I thought that with me it might be different. God I'm so stupid. A guy like him doesn't commit.. especially not to a girl like me.

I'm just another one of his meaningless hookups. He's probably gonna take my virginity and end it with me. I groan, laying back onto the couch tearfully.

Our parents finally leave, leaving the place crystal clean. We are under strict instructions to not make any mess, break anything or burn anything down until after the landlord leaves tomorrow.

"Hey.. you okay?" Derek walks up behind me as I sit at the kitchen counter in deep thought. He wraps his arms around my waist, pecking the skin on my neck with his lips. "Yeah I'm good" I fake a smile.

He spins my stool around so I'm looking at him. "You sure?" He furrows his brows. "Yes" I smile again. "..okay" he says, obviously still unconvinced. "So.. food?" I raise my brow. He chuckles softly, nodding.

He makes us both something to eat. "Taste this" he walks over to me. He brings the spoon to my mouth. I eat the bolognese, the sauce spilling down my chin. I smile as he wipes the sauce off with his thumb. "Good?" He asks. "Delicious" I nod.

He finishes making the food and sits next to me at the counter, putting the plates infront of us. I smile, picking up my fork. We eat the food.

"The food was amazing.. thanks der" I stand up, kissing his cheek softly before taking my plate to the sink. "You wanna watch a movie?" He asks. "I'm tired" I say. "You can fall asleep during" he chuckles softly.

"I'm reaallllly tired" I say. "Come on.. we can cuddle" he smiles, holding my hand, pulling me towards him gently. I smile as he wraps his arms around me, kissing my cheek.

I hold his hand. He stands up and I lead him to the couch. He sits down. I grab the remote before sitting on his lap. He grabs a blanket, pulling it over us. He wraps his arms around me. I snuggle into him.

"Here.. you pick" I hand him the remote. "Really?" He raises his brow. "Yeah.. I've picked the last few times.. plus I'm planning on falling asleep very fast" I grin. He chuckles softly, turning on the tv.

"Oh my god put on Bridget Jones diary!" I exclaim. "I thought you said I could pick?" He rolls his eyes. I bat my eyelashes. He chuckles, putting it on. I smile, snuggling my face into the crease of his neck.

He wraps his arms tighter around me. He plays with the ends of my hair, making me smile. I close my eyes. Its not long before I fall asleep in his arms.
