{Emily's POV} 

It was a Sunday morning at my apartment. Two days after I moved my things from Derek and Mark's place. I did not have a lot of stuff to move because I only had my clothes back home. I sleep at Derek's still because I still don't have a bed for my room here. I was putting my clothes on my closet when someone rang my door bell. I walked towards the door and opened it. It was Mark and Derek. 

"Good morning!" they both shouted 

"Good morning" I said with a smile "What are you guys doing here?" I asked

"Well, I thought that we can help you move some furnitures today" said Derek

"I still don't have any furnitures you know" I said and giggled a bit

"I know. That's why we are taking you furniture shopping today" Mark said as he jumped to sit on the kitchen counter

"What? you don't have to do that" I said

"No, we want to and plus we don't have work till this afternoon" said Derek

"Alright let me just get my purse" I said and went to my room. 


We went to a couple different stores to buy some furnitures. I picked out some light greyish tones for the couches which will be delivered this afternoon. I picked out some essentials as well. Toilet paper, cleaning products, laundry detergent, etc. I also picked out a bed which will also be delivered this afternoon. I picked out some pillows and bed side tables that I can easily build myself later as well as a dresser and a study table. I know it's too much for a girl who is only gonna live here for 2 years but I think it would be able to help me not miss home so much. I love decorating my room back home and now I get to decorate my own apartment. I had butterflies in my stomach just by thinking about it. I love to design and being able to express myself through the interior of my apartment. I picked out a white paint for the apartment because the one on the wall was too strong for the eyes. It was painted blue and as much as I like blue, I didn't really feel like keeping it that colour for 2 years. We went back to my apartment and unloaded the stuff we bought. Mark had to go early because he has to go to the studio earlier than Derek. Derek and I started to unbox my dresser and started to work on it. 

"Hey maybe I should get started on painting my walls before we build anything" I said

"Are you sure you don't want to hire painters to paint for you? It seems like a lot of work " he said

"No it's okay. I know how to paint a wall. I've done it before in my room back home" 

"I know you can but I don't want you to work too hard" he said and hugged me from behind while I was trying to open the can of paint.  

"I'm fine Derek." I turned around to face him, his hands is on my waist. I kissed him on his lips and he kissed back.

We were having a moment when a phone rang, it was his phone. He answered it. 


{Derek's POV}

I broke the kiss when a phone rang. It was my phone and I answered it. 

"Hello." I said

"Hey, you busy? I'm at my mother's place, Alexis is looking for you" it was Jane on the other end

"yeah I'm kinda busy, and I have work later. How about tonight?" I said

"Yeah sure that would be nice. See you later" she said and hung up the phone. 


"Who was that?" asked Emily

"It was Jane. She asked if I was busy today, Alexis was looking for me"
