Derek drove back to Raymond’s house and parked the car in the compound. He got out of the car and looked up to see Fighter waiting for him at the door. He had a wide smile on his face, which made Derek laugh too.“What’s up with you? Why are you smiling that hard?” Derek asked as he approached Fighter.“I’ve been waiting for you to show up since morning. It was a night date, not a whole day date. Why are you just coming back?” Fighter asked as Derek placed his hand on his shoulder while they walked into the house.“Because we had a little chat before we started coming,” he responded, and Fighter let out a smirk.“You need to tell me everything that happened. Nothing left out,” Fighter said happily as soon as he slammed into the couch.“You wouldn’t even let me rest?” Derek asked, and Raymond chuckled, walking out of his room in his khaki shorts.“You needed to have seen him last night. He couldn’t even sleep. He was worried you didn’t text back,” Raymond said, and Derek smiled.“Hi, M
~The next day~“She is here,” Priscilla whispered in Noah’s ear, making him open his eyes from his sweet sleep.“What? So early?” he asked, sitting up, and Priscilla nodded, smiling widely.“Isn’t it better we do what we wanna do on time, before Collins confronts you with a fight?” Priscilla asked, and Noah nodded and smiled.“So where is she now?” Noah asked, getting out of bed.“She’s in the living room. She’s patiently waiting for you to come out,” she said, also standing up. He reached for his clothes and wore them almost immediately.He was done dressing and gave her his hand so she could hold it. They both walked out of the room and headed to the living room.They got there and met Priscilla’s witch friend checking out the house from where she sat. Priscilla cleared her throat, making her look at them.“Hey,” she said, standing up and smiling widely.“You must be…” Noah started, then paused as he realized he didn’t even know her name.“Angel, and you’re Noah. Nice meeting you,”
Derek's heart began to race as he headed into the bathroom in his boxers. He looked up and saw her standing under the shower.“Are you sure you want me to come in?” he asked, and Ashley opened the glass.“If I wasn’t sure, I wouldn’t have called you in, okay?” she stated, smiling widely. He nodded and moved closer to her.His feet were shaking as his eyes fell on her naked body. His eyes widened as soon as they dropped to her beautiful b**bs.“Wow,” he muttered and looked at her face. Her cheeks were all flushed and red.“Are you sure you want me here?” Derek asked, gulping hard.“Of course I want you here… have this, help me scrub my back,” she said, passing him the sponge that was in her hand.He collected the sponge and nodded. She turned her back, and his eyes fell on her butt.He felt his d**k twitch in his boxers as he moved closer. He placed the soapy sponge on her back and began to scrub.This time, he was also under the shower, and as the water touched him, goosebumps spread
Derek raised his head and giggled, staring at her. “That was just a warm-up. We haven’t even started,” he said.Ashley shook her head. “No, I won’t take that. You said the first person to enter the pool and swim to the other side wins. I did just that—and I won,” she insisted.He nodded, smiling. “Fine, you won. So… are we starting again, or is that it?” he asked.“Of course, we’re starting again! I need to show you I’m way better than you at swimming. I can’t wait to tell Maggie and Fighter all about it,” she said excitedly.“Alright, if that’s what you want. Let’s call someone else to give the signal—so it’ll be a fair competition,” Derek said, waving to a guy nearby.“What?” the guy asked.“Can you please call for us? We want to compete,” Derek said politely. The guy nodded and waited for them to get ready.“Won’t you come out of the water?” he asked, and Derek raised his brows, laughing. “I almost forgot about that. Let’s step out, Ash,” he said, and they both climbed out of t
They got to the hotel, and Derek parked the car in the parking lot. He got out of the car, picking up his phone. Then, he walked to the other side and opened the door for Ashley. She smiled widely and gave him her hand as she stepped out.“I’m not yet used to all this; it’s gonna take time,” she said, and they both smiled.“I’m not used to all this either, but it feels right,” he replied, and they both walked into the hotel.“From Mr. Raymond…” Derek said, and they nodded and handed him a key.“Room 213, sir,” she told them, and they both nodded. They headed to the room, never letting go of each other’s hands.“I can’t wait to swim,” Ashley stated, and Derek furrowed his brows.“You can swim?” she asked, and Derek laughed sarcastically.“Of course I can swim—one of the few things I’m very good at,” he said, and she giggled, looking at him.“We’ll know who’s better soon… we’ll compete,” she said, and Derek shook his head, looking scared.“I don’t think that’s a good idea,” he responded
Derek parked the car and came down. He moved to the other side and opened the door for Ashley so she could also come down. “Hmm, such a gentleman,” she said in awe, and Derek chuckled. “What do you take me for?” Derek asked, and she scoffed. “An arrogant little boy,” she said, and they both laughed. They both stood in front of the restaurant, staring at it. “This place is quite fancy,” she said, and he grinned. “Well… this is what an arrogant little boy can do. Don’t underestimate little boys,” he boasted, and she creased her brows. “Are we going in or what?” she asked, and he smiled. He passed her his hand, and she took it with a very huge smile. “Maybe he isn’t who I thought he is after all,” she thought as they both headed into the restaurant. “Table for two?” Derek said to one of the restaurant attendants, and they both led them to their table. “What would you like to have?” the waiter asked, passing them the menu. “Steaks,” Ashley replied before checking the menu at all
