"Derek's point of view"

Lemon and I broke apart from our handshake but were still smiling at one another, I haven't smiled this much in years and yet I don't mind smiling for her.

Lemon broke me out of my thoughts when she made a comment about my name, I should've seen that coming.

"I'm sorry I'm not trying to sound or be rude but is your name really Derek?"

Man Lemon has made me smile and laugh like no other, I couldn't help but laugh at her comment as I run my hands through my hair.

"Yes, my name is Derek why do you ask?" I already knew the answer but I wanted to see if she'll give me the real answer or a fake one.

"It's nothing really, just me asking a stupid question that's all." I look at her and wait patiently for her to explain further and as I'm waiting Lemon moves her hair to the other side just twirling her hair as if she's nervous.

"Okay Derek, listen this is probably going to sound really strange or even pathetic really." As she's done speaking Lemon takes a deep breath and looks straight at me before she continues what she was saying.

"There's this show called Grey's Anatomy and basically I'm in love with a fictional character named Derek Shepherd who's by the way a Neurosurgeon Doctor who happens to live in Seattle."

I couldn't help but be amused knowing she told me the actually truth, I already knew this but it make it more real coming from her. I notice Lemon's face start to worry.

"Lemon are you trying to say you're in love with me already?"

I couldn't help it Lemon's face was starting to worry, I tried to break the ice but instead Lemon started to choke once I said that.

"Woah, woah I'm not an actual Doctor Lemon try not to die on me here. I wouldn't know how to save you just breath."

I started to pat Lemon's pack hoping that'll help her to breath and get fresh oxygen going inside her, soon after Lemon's coughing settles down.

"Lemon my last name isn't Shepherd, I'm not some big shot brain surgeon. The only thing going for me is the Seattle part, if you must know my full name it's Derek Robert King and what I do for work is.. is."

Before I could even come up with a lie for what I do for work Lemon cuts me off. "No Derek, you don't have to explain or tell me anything we just met and I was being rude comparing you to a fictional character. I'm truly deeply sorry."

Lemon has a heart of gold, this damn woman is too pure for this world. I couldn't help myself I put my finger under her chin facing me and my other hand put a piece of strand behind her ear that fell in front of her face.

"There's no need to be sorry I asked you why and gave you a look to explain. I'm not offended I can promise you that."

I took in every detail of Lemon when I put that one strand of hair behind her ear, those deep blue eyes, long eyes lashes, tiny little freckles that covers her nose and cheeks there so tiny you could miss them and those plump lips that look so edible to kiss.
