Forever Yours

Chapter 16

She walked towards the door where Derek stood and when she realized it was Nathan, she engulfed him in a hug, Nathan reciprocated the hug and looked at Derek with a smirk on his face, which made Derek even more angry. Michelle pulled away from the hug and noticed that the atmosphere was a bit awkward and new to her. Derek was glaring at Nathan, not taking his eyes off him.

"Derek?... Is everything okay?" She asked in concern.

Derek turned his attention towards her for a moment and walked away from their presence without a word.

"Derek? Derek!" She called out his name but he didn't respond. He went upstairs.

Michelle was slightly confused at his reaction. What could've made him this upset with Nathan, she wondered.

While she was still staring at the stairs confused, Nathan said,

"Don't worry about him, he'll come around soon."

She then realized that she had kept Nathan standing.

"I'm sorry. Please, come in." she politely said and they both went into the living room, making themselves comfortable on the couch.

"What happened between you two?" She couldn't help but ask because she had never seen Derek this mad at Nathan.

"It was just a little fight... You don't need to dwell on it." Nathan replied like nothing happened.

"You two don't fight, so what's up with this attitude?"

"Oh, we do fight, but not all the time... Like I said, he'll come around. Enough about Derek... How are you?" Nathan asked, trying to change the subject.

"I'm fine. Just mad at you,"

Nathan chuckled at her reply.

"And you two?... Are you guys good?" He asked.

"Yeah. It's just... Derek has been off lately. He seems distant and different."

"And he hasn't said anything to you yet?" Nathan asked, trying to inquire if Derek had mentioned anything about their last conversation.

"No... I guess neither of you wants to say anything about it" She said in a disappointed tone.

"Hey, don't be sad," Nathan said affectionately, taking Michelle's hand in his.

"We'll be good before you know it." He continued.

But deep down, he knew that was a lie because at this point Derek had already considered him an enemy.

"So, I want you to take off that sad look and show me that lovely smile of yours."

Michelle couldn't help but smile at his statement. He always had something sweet to say at the end.

"Okay. I'll do it because you asked... What would you like to drink?" She asked now standing up to get a drink.

"That's more I like it," Nathan said with a smirk.

They talked for a while and Nathan was doing a lot to make Michelle laugh. It worked, but deep down she couldn't help but worry about Derek. She wondered what he was doing upstairs.

Nathan said goodbye and promised to pay her another visit when Derek was a lot more comfortable with his presence but he doubted that day would ever come.

After closing the door, she hurriedly went upstairs to check on Derek, he wasn't in the bedroom neither was he in his study. After searching several other rooms, she found him in the gym, he was on the treadmill. She guessed he was trying to let out some steam.

"Derek?" She called his name in a quiet voice.

He turned off the machine and wiped his face with a towel. He walked towards her and stopped when he was in front of her.

"Derek, what's bothering you?" She asked cupping his face.

He placed a kiss in the palm of her hands and she couldn't help but shiver at the contact. She then wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Talk to me. Please," She pleaded.

Derek's eyes were filled with indescribable hurt. She felt useless for not being able to tell what was wrong with him, she felt like a terrible girlfriend.

Derek still didn't say anything, he just wrapped his arms around her waist and slowly leaned in, placing a soft kiss on her lips. The kiss was soft and slow until it turned passionate and intense, his hands found their way to her thighs as he caressed her to arousing heights. He carried her as she wrapped her legs around his torso and slowly lowered them. He gently placed her on the floor and pushed her dress above her hips while placing soft kisses on her neck. She moaned in pleasure as his lips worked wonders on her skin. He slowly removed her panties, trailing his fingers between her thighs before inserting them one after the other inside her, she fisted her fingers in his hair from the pain and pleasure he was giving. When Derek was done pleasuring her with his fingers, he made sweet love to her.
