2 weeks later:
We're in bed next to eachother in the morning. I look at him. I put my hand on his cheek, stroking it gently. I move my face closer to his. "Hey der" I whisper.

I kiss his lips. "Derek" I whisper. He opens his eyes slowly. "Hi cutie" he smirks. I chuckle softly. He kisses my lips. I put my thumb on his jaw, gently pulling his mouth open. I guide my tongue Into his mouth.

He puts his hand on my cheek as our tongues fight. I moan against his lips. "I have to go" he mumbles against my lips. "No no no" I shake my head, kissing him again passionately.

"Yes yes yes" he pulls away. "No, please" I run my hand down his stomach. He holds my hand. "Hey" he grins.

"But Its raining" I say. "I'm not going on my motorbike.. I won't crash I promise" he says. I snuggle my face into his neck. He strokes my hair gently. "Its just an hour.. I need to go to my therapy appointment" he says.

I stay hidden in the crease of his neck. "I'll stay then.. if you want me to" he says. I wrap my arm around him. He keeps playing with my hair.

"No you should go" I pull away slowly. "I'll stay if you want me to" he kisses me softly. "No, its okay.. I cant go everywhere with you" I say. "If you're sure" he says. I nod.

He kisses me softly. He gets up. I watch him as he gets changed. "Stop staring at my ass" he says. I giggle. "But its just so cute" I grin. He chuckles. He finishes getting ready.

He walks around to my side of the bed. "Thankyou" I giggle as he helps me up.

"Call me if you need anything okay?" He says. "Even if I have a really bad craving and just need food?" I grin. "Especially then" he smiles. I giggle, nodding.

He puts his hands on my cheeks, kissing me. He kneels infront of me. "Bye babies" he kisses my stomach twice. I grin.

I look out of the window at the pouring rain. "Please be careful.. no spinning and no crashing into walls.. your brain was already screwed enough as It is.. we don't need anymore injuries" I tease. He gasps. I giggle.

"I'm gonna do some studying today.. we haven't been to school in ages" I whine. "Of course you miss it" he chuckles. "Obviously.. I'm missing so much" I whine. He chuckles softly.

"There is soup, from yesterday in the fridge that I made.. just heat It up for 3 minutes in the microwave if you're hungry" he says. I nod. "I love you" he kisses my cheek. "I love you too" I smile as he walks out.

I grab my books from my drawers and go to the kitchen. I place my books on the counter and go to the fridge. I open it and take out the soup. I put it in the microwave.

I take it back out and sit at the counter, eating it as I study. I do about 10 minutes of studying before I finish my soup. I stand up to put the bowl in the sink.

My eyes go wide as I feel a liquid running down my thighs. I gasp, putting down the bowl. I go to my room quickly, grabbing my phone. I sit on the bed. I ring derek.

"Mer?" He says. "My water just broke" I say. "What?" He says. "Uhuh" I say. "Okay baby I on my way" he says. "I- should I go to the hospital?" I ask. "Yes" he says immediately.

"Okay.. I'll call a cab" I say. "A cab?" He says. "Well I can't drive?" I say. "No.. okay I'm going to the hospital" he says. "Okay.. hurry please" I say. I hang up.

I waddle downstairs after grabbing my stuff. It's still raining a lot. There's a cab. Someone's about to get in it. "Hi I'm really sorry.. can I have this cab?" I ask.

"Wha-" she says. "I'm in labor" I say. Her eyes go wide. "Yes of course" she says. "Thankyou so much" I say. I get in. My contractions start getting worse as I drive to the hospital.

I rang my parents and My mom text saying they're already at the hospital. I pay for the cab, get out and walk into the hospital. My mom and Carol rush over to me.

"You're walking? You're here by yourself? Where's derek?" Carol asks as they help me walk to the nurses station. "Hes on his way.. oh my fucking god it hurts" I groan as I get another contraction.

A doctor rushes over and gets me in a wheelchair, taking me straight to a private delivery room which my parents paid extra for. I'm laid in the bed, now in a gown.

"You're already 8 centimetres dilated" the doctor says. "What?" I say. "You've been in labor for a while" he says. "What?!" I exclaim. "You haven't had contractions?" He asks. "I thought it was braxton hicks.. my water only just broke" I say.

"Where's derek? Can you call him?" I ask. My mom calls him. She passes me the phone. I groan as I feel another contraction. "Hi" Derek says. "Don't 'hi' me.. where are you?!" I exclaim.

"I'm on my way baby, I'm sorry.. there's so much traffic.. the rains worse" he says. "I'm-" I stop, wincing in pain. Carol takes the phone, telling him whats happening.

"He said he'll be as quick as he can" she says. The doctor comes back in a little while later. "How are the contractions?" He asks. "Painful!" I yell through my moans of pain.

He moves down, checking my cervix. "You're 10 centimetres dilated" he says. "Whys it happening so quick?" I sob. "Its okay honey" my mom walks to my side. "But derek isn't here yet" my lip trembles.
