med school roommates

chapter 136

We're all sat in the living room. Me and derek are on the couch watching tv and the twins are sat infront of us on the floor talking.

I look down. Mia scratches her head. "You're been itching a lot lately.. does your head feel weird?" I ask. She shakes her head.

I lean down, picking her up. I sit her on my lap. I run my fingers through her hair. "Derek" I say. "Mhm?" He asks. He looks at her. "Crap" he mutters as we see a louce on her scalp.

"What's wrong mommy?" She asks. "Nothing baby it's okay" I say. He sighs. We give eachother a look before I put her down and we go to our room.

I go to the bathroom and grab the lice comb. "Do mine" I pass him it. He runs it through my hair a few times. "Ew" he says, looking at the comb. "Damn It" I say. He sighs.

"Who have they caught them off of?" He asks. "Um.. they were hanging out with Nancy's kids the other day.. they go to school?" I say. "We should tell her" he says. I nod.

We're in the living room. Me and derek are sat on the couch and the twins are on our laps. We're brushing through their hair to get rid of all the lice.

"Mama can we keep them as pets?" Mia asks. "Um.. no" I say. "Why not?" She asks. "You know what lice do? They suck blood from your skin" I say. She whines. "Get them off" she says. I chuckle.

"Mama you know auntie amelia?" Lucas says. "Yeah?" I chuckle. "She has a pet tawantula" he says. "I know" I make a face. Derek chuckles. "What's a tawantula?" He asks. "A big spider" Derek says.

"Can we get one?" He asks. "Absolutely not" I say. "Mommy's scared of spiders" Derek says.

"Why?" Lucas giggles. Derek chuckles. "Are you laughing at me, little monkey?" I grin. He giggles, nodding. I chuckle.

"They're big and hairy and gross" I say. "Like daddy" he says. He gasps. I put my hand over my mouth, giggling hysterically.

"Hey!" Derek tickles him. He giggles. "Say sorry" Derek says. "I'm sowwy! I'm sowwy" he says. Derek chuckles, stopping.

I'm still laughing. "Shut up" he glares at me. "I mean.. you are hairy" I grin, looking at his chest hair as I pull down his shirt slightly.

"You want me to shave it?" He asks. I shake my head. "I like playing with it after-" I stop, smirking. He chuckles.

"Mommy" Mia says. "Yeah?" I ask. "I wove you" she says. I smile. "I love you" I say. "Do you know.." she turns around, sitting forward on my lap. I chuckle softly, continuing to brush her hair.

"Did you know.." she says. "What baby?" I chuckle as she stops again. "I fowgot" she says. I laugh. "You're so cute" I say. "No I'm not" she says. "Okay" I grin, rolling my eyes.

"Okay.. I think thats the last of them" I say, brushing her hair a few more times, looking at the clean comb. "Same" Derek says.

"Well done baby you did really well.. I'm sorry, I know the comb hurts a bit" I say. "Thankyou mommy.. can I have a cookie pwease?" She asks. "Of course you can" I get both of them one each.

We go to the bathroom and wash the treatment out of their hair. They sit on the floor in the living room as I sit on the couch. Derek stands behind me, brushing through my hair with the comb.

"These might actually be fleas if they're on you" he says. I gasp, hitting him. He laughs. He brushes through my hair with the comb until its completely clean.

He sits on the couch and I brush through his with it. "I don't think you have any" I say. "Yes!" He says. "Oh no.. wait" I say as I see one. "Damn it" he says. I giggle.

I brush through his hair until we get them all out. He throws all of the wipes and stuff in the bin as I put the bedsheets in the washing machine and put new ones on all the beds.

We all walk to the twins room. I tuck in mia and he tucks in lucas. "Night little man" he kisses his head. "Night daddy" he says. "Night sweetie" I kiss mias nose. "Night mama" she says.

We switch over. "Night monkey" I kiss lucas' nose. "Night mommy" he says. "Night Princess" Derek kisses her head. "Night dada" she says. We turn off the light and leave the room.

We have a quick shower to wash our hair and dry ourselves after we get changed before getting changed into our pyjamas.

We climb into bed. "I feel itchy" I say. "Me too" he chuckles. "I saw so many bugs today" I cringe. "I know" he says.

I wrap my arms around him. He pulls me into his embrace. I kiss his chest softly before eventually drifting to sleep.
