Chemistry Of Lust

CHAPTER 16

*CHARLOTTE'S POV*

I wake up and see Kate, Derek and Edward in the room and it is darker now. It might be around 7 p.m. 

"Hey. For how long have I been out?" I ask looking at both of them in my sleepy voice. Kate leaves before any one of them replies. She might be here to clean everything up.

 "Well, you slept just before Edward got here; around 5pm. And now it's 7, so not that long." I was right I think to myself as Derek replied.

"I am sorry Edward. You came and I was asleep." I say sadly. I don't like wasting any second I have with him because I have a feeling there won't be many more. 

"Hey it's okay. I liked watching you sleep. You look so peaceful. And it's good seeing you this quiet once in a while." He loves teasing me. I hit him playfully. 

"I see you have all your strength back." He says rubbing the area where I hit him.

"Who said I ever lost it?" I raise my eyebrows at him and he throws off one of his playful smirk at me, making me smile.

 "Should I leave?" Derek asks looking between us. 

"No of course not." I say as I feel sorry for Derek. He has to listen to us talk like this all day which might be very awkward for him.

"Well that depends. Would you be okay with seeing me naked?" Edward asks Derek in a fake serious tone. 

I click my tongue and open my mouth to say something but Derek cuts me off. "I wouldn't mind." Edward looks at him in horror as his joke back fired. 

"I am kidding. Calm your balls. I am straight, and even if I wasn't, you wouldn't be my choice."

I burst out laughing at their banter. Edward just looks at him with a nasty look on his face, "Not that funny, Charlotte."

 "It was see." I say pointing at my face. Derek joins me and Edward just stares at us but then his smirk is back.

"Well I got you something but since you won't stop laughing on me I will take it back." He says with a sigh and starts walking towards the door. Oh no. I know he'll give it to me anyways and is just doing this to keep his leftover pride but I need to see what he got me. I stop laughing and gesture towards Derek to make him stop laughing, which he somehow does.

"Hey!! Come back and show me what you got me, drama king." He does as I said and heads back stand beside my bed. He starts to unbutton his pants and I giggle as Derek shouts and covers his eyes.

"Well it's nothing I haven't seen before and might I say I absolutely love this gift." I say as lust fills both our eyes. 

"As much as I love naughty you, this isn't the gift for right now. Let's save this gift for later, when you are perfectly fine."

A frown appears on my face but I recover soon as I realize he has another gift for me. Derek drops his hand from his eyes at this and throws a pillow at Edward, which he catches easily.

 "You guys are so horny," he says as he fake retches.

 "Can't disagree." I say through giggles. Edward sits beside me on the bed, reaches into his pocket and pulls out a little jewelry box.

OMG. What did he get me? He hands me the box as I look at him with shock. I open the box with shaky hands. In the box is a shining silver chain with a pendant. The pendant is a silver test tube with little shimmer all over it which makes it shine like it's diamond.

"Wow. I love it so fucking much, Edward. It's so beautiful and the pendant is just too cute. It shows how we met. And also our chemistry of lust." I say looking up at him and he smiles at the last words.
