𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐎𝐍𝐋𝐘
chapter forty one.
" Feelings Reciprocated. "The house is completely silent, not a single noise is heard besides the crickets who are loudly chirping from outside her open window. She keeps quiet, not wanting to make any loud noises knowing if she does, it'll echo throughout the house and possibly wake up her sleeping family. After the very, very long and chaotic night Lilith has had, she finally has a little bit of time to herself now that everything has been taken care of or gotten disposed of. Despite having school the following day — meaning she should be fast asleep so she won't be tired — she's not tired; not after everything she's encountered. She unconfidently stands inside her bathroom with a single light on that allows her to look at herself in the mirror without seeing a black blob of nothing.
Out the corner of the mirror she notices something. "What are you doing? You have to go, you can't be here. My mother is sleeping downstairs, and my sister down the hall. What will you do if one of them wakes up and comes to check on me?"
"They won't." Derek simply states. The older man stands in the doorway of her bathroom, simply watching Liith look at herself.
"You don't know that. Lydia is a light sleeper, she wakes up over the smallest things." She pauses. "How'd you even get inside my house?"
"Lilith, don't start this."
"Fine." She turns back around, once again facing the mirror that's ahead of her. She turns her gaze off of Derek, and places them back onto herself.
"Are you okay?" Derek genuinely asks. He watches her tilt her head back and run her fingers down her throat, being as careful as she can due to the new cut she's received tonight; he completely unaware that she got it from stopping Allison who was trying to hunt him down.
She glances back at Derek through the mirror. "Do you think it'll scar?" She asks with a frown.
"Do you want the truth?"
"No." She shakes her head. "Not really. If it does, do you think it would look hot?" Derek chuckles and gives her a small nod.
While Lilith turns back to look at herself through the mirror, Derek gradually walks closer to her. Once he makes it to be behind Lilith, he gently places his hands onto her hips, he then pulls her closer to him so her back is resting in his chest. They both look into the mirror, yet looking at one another. It doesn't matter what Lilith is doing, he just wants to look at her. Simply being in her presence is good enough for him.
"Don't lie, tell me why you're here." Lilith whispers, glancing up at him with a tiny smile on her lips.
"You and I both know why." Derek whispers back. He slowly leans down and places a gentle kiss on her neck.
