It's 1am and I'm sat in bed next to derek, who's sleeping. I'm watching tv with tears running down my cheeks.

I look down at him. I gently pull the covers off of him and climb into his arms. I lay next to him, wrapping my arms around his waist and draping my leg over him. I sniffle.

"Mer" he strokes my back. I cry quietly into his chest. "What's wrong?" He asks. "I have cramps" I say. "Oh, I'm sorry baby" he kisses my head. He hugs me back.

"Can I do anything? You want painkillers? I can run you a bath? Give you a massage?" He asks. I shake my head.

"I'll get in the bath with you and massage you at the same time" he offers. "Okay, I want that" I say. He sits up slowly, carefully pulling me away from him. He gets up and goes to the bathroom.

"Its ready baby" he walks in. I follow him to the bathroom. He gets in the bath first. I pull off my clothes and he helps me get in. I sit between his legs. I lean back, against him. I close my eyes as he hugs me from behind.

He kisses my neck softly. "Are you gonna be okay doing your shoot today?" He asks. I nod. "I'll bring paracetamol and a hot water bottle with me" I say.

"Call me if you want me to come to you.. we can have lunch together or something if you want" he says. I smile. "Okay" I say.

"I'm sorry for waking you up" I say. "You can wake me up whenever you need to, baby.. I dont mind" he says. I moan quietly as he starts massaging my shoulders.

"I love your hands" I run my hands up and down his thighs to distract me from the pain in my belly. My shoulders feel good though.

"Stop" I giggle. He keeps getting distracted by my boobs. He grabs them again gently and squeezes them. "They're so squishy.. my stress balls" he pulls me back. I laugh. He laughs with me.

He goes back to massaging me. He rubs my belly gently. I turn around and straddle him. He breathes me in as I hug his neck. He kisses my shoulder softly. He hugs me back.

"You're so handsome, derek" I put my hands on his cheeks, looking into his eyes. He smiles. "I love you" I say. "I love you too" he says.

I put my hands on his cheeks, kissing him passionately. I run my tongue along his bottom lip. He thrusts his tongue into my mouth. I moan against his lips as we makeout.

I pull away slowly. "You are so unbelievably, ridiculously sexy" he whispers. I smile, blushing hard.

"We should get out" I say. "Okay" he says. I get off of him. He holds my hand, helping me out. I wrap a towel around myself. He gets out and does the same. We go into the bedroom.

We get changed into our pyjamas. I just put on one of his shirts and he pulls on his pyjama bottoms.

"Oh my god" he says. I gasp. "What?" I look behind me, scared he's seen a spider or something. "You.. are so so gorgeous" he walks towards me. I giggle, letting out a breath.

He pulls me into his arms and kisses me. "You think you can sleep now?" He asks. "Yeah" I nod. We get in bed and I cuddle into him. He pulls the covers over us both. We fall asleep.

"Mer" he shakes me gently. "Mhm, leave me alone" I mumble tiredly. "You need to get up baby, you have work" he kisses my face softly.

"Go away, idiot" I push him away lazily. "What did you just call me?" He teases, tickling my belly. I pull his hand away and turn over, pulling up the covers.

"Baby get up" he says seriously, tugging on the covers. I scream, sitting up. I push his hand away from me. He chuckles. "I hate you!" I yell.

I lay back down and pull the covers over my head, going back to sleep. "Do you want cuddles?" He asks. "No!" I yell.

He picks me up. I cuddle into him, wrapping my legs around his waist. "Let me sleep" I mumble into his neck.

"You're so violent in the mornings" he sits at the table with me on his lap. "You can cuddle with me for ten minutes, and then you have to get ready" he strokes my back. "Okay" I mumble tiredly.

"I'm sorry I was mean" I say. "Its okay" he chuckles. "I don't hate you" I say. "I know, baby" he whispers. "I like you, you're cute" I hug his neck. "You're cute too" he chuckles.

"Can you start getting ready now?" He asks nicely. I shake my head. "Please, for me" he says. I sigh. I open my eyes and pull away from him slowly. He smiles.

"I don't want you to be late to work" he says. I stretch my arms up and arch my back to stretch it out. He chuckles softly. I get off of him.

"Thanks for my cuddles" I kiss his cheek before going to the bathroom. I get ready.

"I'll see you later babe, I'm going" I walk over to him. "Have a good day at work.. call me when you're taking your lunch break and we can meet up" he says. "Okay" I smile. "I love you!" He says as I walk away. "I love you too" I leave.
