Michelle was done with work for the day, so she decided to give Derek a call.
"Hey baby" she greeted as soon as he picked her call.
"Hey love"
Michelle felt like melting at the sound of his voice. They've been together for quite awhile but she always felt butterflies erupt in her stomach whenever she hears that husky voice of his.
"Are you back from work?" she asked.
"Not yet. I still have a few things to take care of" He replied.
"Okay. I just wanted to let you know that I won't be making dinner tonight cos I'm sooo tired. So, I was thinking of getting us Chinese. Would that be okay?" she asked while playing with the tip of her hair.
"You're free to do whatever you want, babe. You know I'm your humble slave"
She blushed at his remark.
"I can't wait to see you" He continued.
Michelle was glad that he wasn't presently in front of her to see how crimson her cheeks had turned.
"Me too love" She replied.
"I better not distract you from what you were doing"
"You know you're welcome to distract me anytime"
"Okay, stop this now and go back to work" she commanded with a huge smile on her face.
Derek just chuckled because he was certain she was already red with embarrassment, which was why she wanted to end the call.
"Okay beautiful, I'm only going to do so cos you asked... I love you" He then said.
"Love you too" She replied and then hung up.
After the call, she tidied her desk, collected her purse and walked out of the office, locking the door behind her.

She walked out of the restaurant and climbed into her silver Mercedes SLR McLaren Derek got for her on her twenty eight birthday.
Michelle stopped at a Chinese restaurant and ordered some Chinese takeout. After that she headed home.
Michelle drove into the beautiful compound with a well designed modern mansion. It's landscape is very large with an outdoor infinity pool. She got out of her car and went into the mansion, heading straight to the kitchen to re-heat the meal in the microwave. After re-heating the meal, she went into their bedroom and took off her heels and peach jacket, and remained in her white tank top and black skinny pants.
Inside the bedroom, was a king sized bed in the middle and a bench at the foot of the bed, with a TV right in front of the bed. There were two nightstands on each side of the TV with flower vase on each stand. The bedroom was predominantly designed with fine wood, with a touch of cream and brown.
The bathroom and walk in closet were on the right side of the bedroom.
Michelle decided to go to the living room to watch TV. While she was surfing through the TV, the front door opened revealing Derek in a navy blue suit and tie, with a white shirt and a pair of brogues.
Derek Howard Jr is a thirty year old man. He has a tanned skin, six feet three inches tall with a very black long hair and captivating grey eyes. He is ruggedly handsome with a broad and masculine body features.
Michelle ran up to him and gave him a tight hug. He dropped his briefcase and lifted her up by her thighs, causing her to wrap her legs around his torso and locked her lips with his in a passionate kiss.
"It looks like someone really missed me a lot today" Derek said with a light chuckle.
Michelle blushed and buried her face in the crook of his neck. Derek walked into the living room with Michelle still in his arms and gently put her down on the couch.
"How was your day at work?" she asked.
"Boring as always. I couldn't wait to come back home" He replied.
"Why don't you go take a shower while I set the table" She said, handing him his briefcase.
"Yes boss" He replied and gave her a quick kiss before heading upstairs.
After shower, Derek came downstairs to join Michelle in the dining room. He was now casual, wearing a black t-shirt and sweatpants. His long hair now poured out and slightly wet.
Michelle couldn't help but stare. She loved Derek's long hair so much and sometimes envied the fact that a guy could have hair this long.
"Nathan called me earlier today" Derek began.
"Really?! How is he doing?"
"He is fine. He called to let me know that he'll be returning to Washington"
"That's nice" Michelle replied.
"He said he'd come live with us for awhile before he gets his own place, that's if you don't mind?"
"I don't mind at all... When will he be coming down, so I can make preparations and get the guest room ready?" she asked.
"He'll be coming on Saturday"
"That's five days from today... Then I have to call the cleaning agency tomorrow to come do some clean-up"
Derek gave a shrug.
"Do what you want, babe"
