"Hey" Derek pulls up next to me as I'm walking home. "Hey" I giggle, walking up to his window. He smiles. I lean down and kiss him softly.
"What are you doing here?" I ask. "Stalking you" he teases. I chuckle. "Seriously" I say.
"You wanna come to my house?" He asks. "I didn't think we were today?" I ask. "You don't want to?" He asks. "No, I do" I smile. I get in the passenger seat.
"You wanna pick up some of your stuff first?" He asks. I nod. He drives me to my house. I go in quickly, tell my mom I'm going to Derek's and grab my stuff before going back outside.
"She said to tell you hi" I say. "Say hi back" he says. "Okay" I say. I look at him. "Right now?" I sigh. He nods. I groan.
I get out of the car and run to the door. I open it. "Mom, derek said hi back!" I say. I hear her chuckle. I giggle, closing the door. I get back in the car.
He drives us to his house. We get out of the car. I grab my bag. I smile as he takes it for me. "What have you got in here?" He chuckles as he feels how heavy it is. I shrug, grinning.
We walk inside. "Hi" I smile, walking into the living room. "Hi meredith" carol and Christopher smile. "Hi mer" amelia walks over, hugging me.
"Hi sweetie.. you okay?" I ask. She nods, pulling away. "How's school?" I ask. "Good.. that girl stopped being mean to me because I told her that you're my friend and you'll beat her up" she grins. "Good" I grin.
"You're going to beat up a nine year old?" Derek asks. "Of course not" I giggle. "But if she bothers amelia again then.. maybe" I shrug. He chuckles softly.
"Can mer sleep over tonight?" He asks. "Umm.." his parents think. "Pleeeaassseee" he pulls me into his arms, my back against his chest. "Of course you can" Christopher says.
"Thankyou!" We both grin. He sits on the couch. I sit next to him. We talk to his family for a bit before deciding to go upstairs.
We're sat on his bed talking. "I'm so thirsty" I say. "Sorry, I didn't even offer you a drink" he says. "Its okay" I giggle. He gets up. "I'll go" I say, getting up. He sits back down. I go downstairs.
I step into the kitchen. Carol's in here too. She smiles at me. I get a bottle of water. "So, how are you?" I ask.
"I'm good, why?" She asks. "I dunno.. just wondering. you know, with you.. being pregnant and everything!" I whisper. I look at her. She gasps.
"How do you know?!" She exclaims. I grin. "No wine last week at dinner.. and that's basically it" I shrug. "You make me seem like an alcoholic" she says. I giggle.
"You haven't told derek, have you?" She asks. "Of course not" I say. "I'm going to tell him soon.. I'm 2 months along but I kinda- I'm scared to tell them" she says. "What? Why?" I ask.
"My eldest is 19 years old.. I just- its weird.. having a baby again" she says. "You had Nancy young though, didn't you?" I ask. "Seventeen" she says. "Wow.. derek's age" I say shocked.
"So, you're only 36.. and you're a great mom already.. derek adores his sisters.. I'm sure he'd love another sibling" I say. She smiles.
"Congratulations carolyn" I hug her. "Thankyou" she smiles. I grab my bottle of water and walk away. "And just because I had Nancy at 17 doesn't mean you two should get any ideas!" She says. I giggle.
I go upstairs. I sit next to derek in bed. "Hi" I grin, kissing his cheek. He chuckles softly. "I didn't know your mom was 17 when she had nancy" I say. "Yeah, so?" He asks.
"So.. you're 17" I say. "I'm not having a baby with you" he says. I giggle, shaking my head. "Shut up" I say. He chuckles, grinning. "Was she an accident?" I ask. "I'd assume so" he chuckles.
I move into his embrace. He smiles, kissing the side of my head. We soon get changed into our pyjamas and fall asleep next to eachother.
I wake up in the middle of the night. I check the clock. It's 2am. I get up. I'm only wearing Derek's shirt so I don't want to get caught as I look around the house a little. Everyone's asleep.
I go back into his room. "Derek" I whisper, shaking him gently. He groans. "Der" I shake him again. He opens his eyes slowly. "Mhm.. What's wrong?" He asks.
"I need a drink" I whisper. "So get one then" he mumbles. "I'm scared" I whisper. He groans. "Why?" He asks. "Its dark" I whisper. He sighs, sitting up. I pass him his glasses. "Thankyou" he puts them on.
We both get up. I hold his hand, following him as he walks downstairs. We go to the kitchen and he passes me a drink. "Thankyou" I take it.
"You're welcome" he sighs, sitting down and resting his head on the counter tiredly. "I'm sorry for waking you up baby" I whisper, kissing his cheek.
I stand behind him, hugging him from behind. I kiss his bare back. "Oooh.. muscly" I smirk, running my hand down his back. He chuckles softly.
He sits up. I smile as he pulls me into his arms, cuddling his face into my neck. "I love you" he whispers quietly. "Me too" I wrap my arms around him.
I gasp as he picks me up bridal style, standing up. I giggle, wrapping my arms around his neck. He carries me upstairs. "Go to sleep" he puts me in bed. "Okay" I grin. He climbs next to me.
He kisses my neck softly before turning around. He takes off his glasses and snuggles into his pillow.
"Hey.. I wanted to spoon" I frown. "I'm little spoon" he says. "Okay" I giggle, wrapping my arms around him. We soon fall back asleep.
