"Guhh.." Derek groans into his pillow.
"Babe, you ok?" Bethany asks walking into their room.
"No!" Derek exclaims.
"Is it like a fever..?"
"I think so.. I have a massive headache and I feel like puking."
"What did you eat yesterday?"
"Just the chicken we had for supper and the smoothie and sandwich you brought to the studio."
"Uh... Derek..." Bethany widened her eyes.
"What?" He asked looking back up at her.
"I never brought a sandwich and smoothie."
"What? But it had your name on it."
"Babe, I brought tomato soup and grill cheese."
"Ah shit!"
"I'll go call Tyson, see if he can come in for rehearsal."
"No. I have to go! This is Singing in The Rain for christ sake!"
"Derek Bruce Hough! I forbid you to go to rehearsal. I'm your partner and fiancee. You have to stay home and rest otherwise you won't even be able to perform on Monday! I'll give Sasha the tape of the dance and he'll help me with moves I'm struggling with."
"But-" Bethany cuts him off.
"No buts! I'll come over and check on you at lunch." Bethany walks over to him and kisses his cheek.
"I love you."
"Iloveyoutoo." Derek murmurs into his pillow with agony.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Bethany?"
"What?"
"Costume fitting." Remi smiles holding up her costume.
"OK!" Bethany excuses herself from rehearsal and leaves with Remi
"Where's Derek. I need to get the sizes for him too."
"He's home sick."
"Derek? Like Hough? Sick!? I guess pigs are flying now. Derek is NEVER sick."
"I know.. It's weird.. I told him he could have my lunch yesterday and he ate someone else's but apparently it had my name on it."
"Really? Weird."
"Yeah I know. But do you think you could just use one of his old costumes to fit this one?"
"Oh yeah for sure."
"Sweet."
As they walked into the dressing room Dean and Tyson were in there.
"Hey boys. The costume fits good?"
"Perfect." they say in sync
"Hey Beth, you still need me to fill in?" Tyson asks biting his apple.
"Yeah if you don't mind."
"Filling in for what?" Dean asked.
"Derek's sick, I need someone to help me rehearse."
"Oh... Poor Derek.." Dean says.. But then quickly shook it off. "Well I gotta go." Dean quickly leaves.
"Uh... Anyone know why he would be in such a rush?" Remi asked confused.
"No why?" Bethany raise an eyebrow.
"He left with his costume on..."
"Must've had something to do." Tyson suggested.
