Derrick & Kenya

Chapter 4: Conflicted

She woke up in his arms and just stared at him. "I can feel you staring at me." He said with he's eyes closed, she giggled. "Sorry, you're just too beautiful ." She said climbing on top of him after he say up. "Morning, did you sleep well?" She asked him. "Well we didn't get much sleep but it was so worth it." He said kissing her, she returned the kiss and he inserted his tongue in her mouth. "You really want to go at it again?" She asked him and he put her on her back and pulled her legs around his waist. "Why not I have some time before I need to be in the office." She shook her head, when he kissed her on her neck, she shut her eyes in disappointment in her eyes. 'Shit' she thought, 'your weak' she said as he went faster, he was her kryptonite but she knew she couldn't let that change her mind. She let out soft moans and he smiled against her skin when she did. She wrapped her arms on his back, he couldn't control his breathing, she looked to the side and saw it was eight thirty. "When did you say your meeting was?" She said in between breaths. "Ten, why?" He said slowing down. "That's in an hour and thirty minutes you should start getting ready so we can get some breakfast." He nodded and head to the shower, she stared as he went to the shower. "If you wanted to see me naked for longer you could've said instead of staring at me when I look away, plus it saving water." She walked into the shower with him and he smiled as he really hoped she would. They decided to go to the closet restaurant to his work as there was forty minutes left until his meeting. "So, I know you said you've forgiven me but I can't help but feel that you just wanted to please me at the time." She looked down at her drink she wouldn't have slept with him if she hadn't maybe she really did, but it wasn't enough to change her mind. "I have honestly, but I'm not going to lie and say that I completely trust you and that I'm completely sure we should still be together." She couldn't believe she actually said it, even more that he didn't react he simply stared at her, she wondered if he heard what she had said or if he was paying any attention. "But, we-you, I thought that you stayed because you wanted to work things out and you knew we are meant to be." She didn't want to anger him, she knew that if she was still afraid of him then she probably had reason to. "Derrick right now you don't need to prove anything to me, we just have to take things slow right now." His eyes twitched and his grasp around his glass tightened, she touched his hand and he sighed releasing the tension between the two. "You really need to go to a psychologist, find yourself again I'll then be able to trust you." He looked away and then down at his watch. "I have to go the meeting starts in ten minutes." He said softly then signaling for the check. "Okay." She said looking down, he lifted it and smiled "Anything, i'll to anything to make you see what I see in us, I love you way to much to let me be the reason to our separation." She nodded and he lovingly kissed her, leaving money for the bill and her by herself. She stood up and decided to head to the bank after this she was sure she had to leave. "Hello mam can I help you?" The receptionist asked her as she approached the desk. "Yes I'm here to see Mr Nell." She nodded her head, tapping into her "Miss Moss, he will with you shortly." She took a seat examining the empty room. "Miss Moss to what do I oh the pleasure?" She smiled letting him escort her to his office. "Please sit." He said as they entered. "Thank you, I need all of my money taken out of this account." His smile disappeared from his face and his expression became puzzled. "Can I ask why?" She leaned back in her seat crossing her legs. "Personal reasons, but let's just say I want to start again." He stood up and took her money from the safe. "I'm sure a woman of your smarts has a very important use for this money." He said still not understanding why she would need to do with so much money, she put the money in her bag, "as for my second account, I will leave it intact please." She said standing up. "We should meet up some time." She smiled, he was nothing but an old pervet that's what he really was behind the rich private banker. "I don't think Derrick would like that." She noticed his eyes travel to her chest area for a moment, "oh yes, how unfortunate." Sometimes he really disgusted her, but she trusted him nevertheless. "You married, Mr Nell?" She asked taunting him. "Divorced actually." Figures, she thought and she smirked. "Good for her." She said turning around to leave, she heard his steps move right behind her. "Excuse me?" She turned around and looked him straight in his eyes. "Good for you." She said with a smirk planted on her face, whilst he gritted his teeth knowing very well what she had said. "Good day Mr Nell." She said closing the door behind her. "We have a new candidate for the job Derrick what makes you think you're better?" The man at the end of the room questioned, the man didn't know how angered at him. "I have worked here for years, and have brought you nothing but success, the reason I'm sitting at this table today in front of you is because I work my butt of each and every day." He stared at the candidate she was still young, obviously inexperienced she probably was screwing one of these men and most likely the chair man, he noticed how she got nervous when he stared at her. "Mr Smith, we are aware of your high efforts and successes however, miss Daniels as you are aware is a woman and we will benefit from her dearly not just because of her work she'll be doing but because our company will be known as an unbiased and most importantly unsexiest."  He didn't think he would stoop that low, to get her the job. "We will have another meeting and we will then make our decision." When everyone was gone he marched up to the chair man. "What the hell was that?" He said angrily, the chair man seemed amused by his eagerness. "What do you mean, you didn't think you already had the job did you?" He said laughing, Derrick straightened his shirt. "Of course I did, I work harder then anyone else in this whole business I deserve to be on the board." The chair man gestured for him to sit down, and poured a glass of whiskey. "I remember when I was in your position, I had to do something different to get noticed much like yourself, I to let anger get the best of me but I realized that in fact was the reason I didn't get the job the first time." He said sipping his whiskey. "And how may I ask did you find her?" The chair man gave him a warning stare as if to say you don't want to go there. "Mr Smith, I understand your frustrations and eagerness to get the job, but I tell you marching up to me and accusing me is not the way you will get the job." He stood up and opened the door for him to leave, and Derrick stormed out.
