I groan and stretch out my arms only to feel the bed is empty next to me. I hear my favorite song playing outside our bedroom, so I get up to see what Derek is up to.

"...ooh in the name of love! Pour some sugar on me!" I see Derek singing and dancing as he pours maple syrup on two plates of waffles. I start giggling at how goofy he is and because he knows Def Leppard is one of my favorite rock bands. He turned around when he heard laughter and gave me a cheeky grin and winked.

"I figured our first morning here we deserved your favorite breakfast and we can go over to Santa Monica later today and have fun on the pier!" He set my plate on our new kitchen table and kissed my forehead.

"Oooh that sounds like so much fun. I haven't been there since I was little. You know that was my favorite place to go with my family when we went on vacation!" I got very excited and took a bite of my waffles. My family liked to travel to California for vacation whenever school was on break, so Santa Monica was our vacation spot.

"I know babe and that's why I'm taking you and I made reservations for dinner tonight somewhere special." He got up because we both finished eating and kissed my head again before going to set our dishes in the sink.

"I'm gonna go take a shower now because you always take long ones... unless you wanna join me," he was always so cheeky but I loved that about him.

"Hmmmm, I'd take you up on that offer but I gotta clean all these dishes now." I got up and walked over towards the sink to start cleaning them making sure to sway my hips and I felt him walk up behind me.

"Cmoooon you can do these later." He put his hands on my hips and set his head perfectly in my neck and his stubble on his cheek tickled my face.

I lean my head back onto his shoulder and let out a laugh. Derek knows I'm giving in. It's actually not that hard to give in to him, but it's fun to play hard to get sometimes. He picked me up over his shoulder and made sure his hand was holding onto my butt while he carried me to the bathroom to make sure I couldn't get away from his grasp.

***This is just a filler chapter I'm sorry it's short :( i also don't know how I feel about writing sex scenes yet so bare with me! I hope I can get better as I keep going with this story because I have such a good idea.
