Me and derek are in his room as we study. Well, as he studies and I watch Netflix.

I rest my head sideways on his shoulder, closing my eyes. "I'm bored" I mumble. "Concentrate on your show" he says. "Its boring!" I whine.

I pull away. I lay on the bed with my head on his lap. He just keeps writing. "Have you seen.. lingerie?" I ask. "Well.. obviously" he chuckles. I roll my eyes.

"I mean.. the kinky type" I say. "What about it?" He asks. "I don't have any" I say. "Okay" he says. "Do you want me to get some?" I ask. He's still reading. "If you want" he says. I sigh, rolling my eyes.

"Maybe I should go" I go to sit up. "What? Why?" He puts his hands on my shoulders, laying me back down. "I'm annoying you.. I didn't mean to interrupt your studying" I say. "You're not annoying me" he says.

"I'm not?" I ask. "No, I like your company" he says. "Really?" I ask. "Just because I'm not talking, doesn't mean I'm not appreciative of you being here" he says. I smile. He leans down to me, kissing me softly.

"You talk as much as you want though, I'm listening.. promise" he says. I smile, chuckling softly. I start talking to him again as he continues reading.

A little while later he puts his books aside and I sit up. "Okay, you have my full attention gorgeous, what do you wanna do?" He pulls me onto his lap, so I'm straddling him.

I smile, wrapping my arms around his neck. "We're you really proud of me.. for my science test?" I smile. "Very" he says.

"Thankyou, that actually- it means a lot to me" I smile. "I'm always proud of you.. you're my favourite girlfriend" he wraps his arms around me, grinning.

"Oh yeah? How many of us do you have?" I ask. "Mhm.. well, there's you.. anddd....-" he stops. I giggle.

I smile, looking into his eyes. "You seem happy" he strokes my cheeks with his thumbs. "You make me happy" I say. He smiles. "You make me happy too" he says. I grin.

I kiss him softly. "Do you love me?" I ask. "I do" he says. "Do you love me enough to go downstairs and get me a drink?" I ask. "Oh, I don't know if I love you that much" he teases. I giggle.

He gently moves me off of his lap and stands up. I watch him as he walks out of the room, going downstairs.

He's taking a while so I decide to go downstairs. Sorry" he passes me my drink as I walk into the kitchen, interrupting his and his mom's conversation. "Thanks" I say.

"What's going on?" I ask. "Der-" Carol says. "Nothing" he says. I raise my brow. He sighs. "My mom got a call from some if my teachers, saying that I've been distracted from my work lately.. and they said it's because we're dating" he says.

"What? I don't mean to distract you" I say. "You don't!" He says. "Did they not call your mom as well honey?" Carol asks. "I never concentrate in class anyway" I shrug.

"My grades have gone up since I met derek" I say. "I'm a good influence" he grins, pulling me into his arms, my back against his chest. "And I'm a bad one" I frown.

"Yeah but when I'm with you, I look cooler so.." he teases. I giggle, shaking my head. "How's it feel, being the dumb one in the relationship now?" I grin, looking back at him. "Shut up" he says. I giggle.

"I'm sorry, I don't mean to distract you" I say. "Its not your fault.. its not because of you, I've just been distracted lately" he says.

"Okay, good.. I wouldn't want to be the reason you're dumber than me" I say. "Then stop smiling!" he glares at me. I giggle, stopping.

"Besides, I got one A- it's not the end of the world" he rolls his eyes. "An A-.. thats what you're so bothered about? Seriously!" I hit him. "Ow!" He says. "You're so annoying" I say. He chuckles.

We grab some food and go back upstairs to watch a movie. I end up falling asleep.
