"Mmh babe!" Derek called out
"What??" Bethany asked looking up from her laptop,
"Can we head out to the mall for a bit? I still need a present for Witney and Val."
"Derek..."
"Yah?"
"The Christmas party is tomorrow..."
"No it's not..." Derek's eyes widened.
"Yah it is.... Today's the 23rd... Tomorrow's Christmas Eve."
"S**t! Come on let's go!" Derek grabbed Bethany by the waist and pulling her over his shoulder,
"DEREK!! PUT ME DOWNNNN!" Bethany laughed,
''Come on!!"
"Ok!! But put me down!"
"Ok! Ok." Derek laughed setting his tiny girlfriend down.
"Come on you big goof, I'll drive." Bethany laughed and grabbed her keys off the counter.
"Damn... Can we get some fo-" Derek cut off mid sentance.
"Some what?"
"Nothing.. Nevermind."
"What? Tell me what you want."
"I'm just hungry. I was gonna say food... But.."
"Derek it's fine. Just cause I have an eating disorder doesn't mean you can't bring up the topic of the food."
"I know babe but.."
"I get it.. But it's ok. I know you care but I don't want you to be uncomfortable, we can go get something on the way back. But I can't make any promises on eating anything."
"That's alright. I know your getting better."
"Day by day right?"
"RIght." Derek kissed her and took her hand.

"So I know Witney really wants a set of beats but I don't know what color." Derek said looking at the headphones infront of him.
"I'd do pink. It's Witney." Bethany laughed,
"True. What do you think I should get Val"
"He's been complaining about how crappy his runners are. Maybe some new Nike's." Bethany suggested
"I don't know his size."
"He's a 10."
"Hey! I should be the only guy who's a 10 in your eyes!" He joked.
"Your an 11." Bethany giggled kissing Derek while she wrapped her arms around his waist to get closer.
"MMh I better be." Derek laughed taking Bethany's hand as they walked into the Nike store.
"So... What'd you get mee?"
"For what? Christmas?"
"Yah!!" Bethany exclaimed jumping up and down like a little kid.
"You'll see." Derek teased.
"Tell me please!"
"It'll ruin the suprise!" Derek kissed her head and changed the subject. "What are you bringing to the party tomorrow?"
"I'm baking some cookies tonight and bringing those."
"Can I help? Cause I know that sometimes the thought of food..."
