Delicate Hearts

Twenty-Six

The connection they shared was like no other, built on honesty, loyalty and chemistry. Maybe they worked so well because they both had hopes, dreams and aspirations.  

They physical connection could only be described as electrical, they sparked the second their bodies made contact, it was the touches they gave eachother, his touch caused her to melt, lose control, her touch electrified him, made him feel more awake.

They had just finished showering for the second time, the sky had started to turn dark, the stars now visible.

Derek had changed into a grey textured zip polo and black pants. Meredith's eyes were glued to him, she would take long glaces at his reflection through her mirror as she applied her makeup.

Of course her makeup look was subtle, it was her outfit that silently drove him crazy. She had decided on a blue allover floral backless knot halter neck dress which had a slit on the thigh, the way the dress was she had skin showing but also looked elegant.

Derek struggled to contain himself as a large bulge formed in his pants, even though he had finished several times within their many rounds only an hour ago.  He had never felt this way before, so drawn to someone in every way possible. 

"You look stunning baby"Derek spoke with a gentle tone as she wrapped her arms around his neck she blushed lightly with a giggle.

"You look handsome, although you always wear black pants"She frowned. Derek grabbed her hand and moved it to touch the hardened area. 

"I would have worn another colour, but oh girl every single time  I look at you this happens." His voice was low and full of lust. Meredith's teeth grazed over her glossed lips. Derek groaned at her. "You are teasing me , I'll have to pin you down and fuck you again if you carry on"Although he spoke with a harder tone this time she knew she was safe, she knew he wouldn't push her. 

She loved seeing him come out of his shell with her, he had always been so keen to protect her from everything. Derek could separate the roughness in the bedroom to when they were out and about just being normal. But at this moment they could both still feel it, the need and want they had for each other.

"Come on you"Meredith scrunched her nose and grabbed his hand. She led him down the stairs, her light heel meeting the floor as they walked.

"Your ass looks unreal in this dress"Derek complimented, Meredith turned to wink at him.

"For you only"She knew her words would make him want her, crave her more than he already did.

They made their way downstairs, everyone was ready to go out, the kids were beaming with joy. Derek led Meredith into the family diner where all of the adults except Caleb stood.

"Right, so I wanted to address this now. He is making it very clear and I don't want to look stupid. Caleb and I are divorcing. The relationship is failing. He is just waiting for the mortgage to come through on a new place before we tell Lucas. Meredith I am sorry about him" Everyone gave Kathleen sad looks, Derek of course embraced her as did her parents. "I am happy though, so lets have a good night"She added.

Derek fed Ruby and set her up with water, they wouldn't be out too long as the kids would want to sleep.

The kids ran across the beach as they took the stroll to the restaurant, a little path which led to the stairs of the food place soon came up, Carolyn and Charles lead thr group, with the kids running ahead, Lizzy and Laurence were swinging Lacey by holding her hands as Logan ran with Lucas. Caleb walked alone, Kathleen walked with Amelia which left Meredith,Addison, Derek and Mark at the back.

Meredith's head rested on his arm as they walked toward the gorgeously lit building. Walking in the brown orbs of the woman he usually slept with greeted them, it was Caleb's laugh that made it clear to Meredith this was the woman.
