Chapter 7

• **********************************HERE'S ANOTHER STORY*****************************************
• Mariam walked to the front porch and found the main door locked as she expected it to be. She knocked on the door since she did not take her keys with her when she left.
• “Derrick, thank you for locking me out!” she said as Derrick opened the door.
• “This would not be an issue if you owned a house,” he replied with a smile, displaying his dimples.
• Something about Derrick made Mariam attracted to him. She loved him as her stepfather but she felt always as if there was something more. Since her mother passed out, Derrick had always been there for her. He always looked after her and she loved his company.
• Her mother died from cancer three years ago but Derrick always did his best to make up for it. Mariam was now attending the local college while living at home with her stepfather.
• She was tall with long brown hair that covered the middle of her back. She had attractive curves with blue eyes and a nice chest that came with a round ass. Derrick had short dark hair and cute blue eyes. He was at the end of his thirties and handsome.
• He did not have abs but his belly was not big. His arms were huge and he had a few tattoos that Mariam always found sexy. She also loved his dimples. They were living on a medium-size farm and land work took almost all of Derrick’s time. This caused him to be more toned and stronger. He used his free time to ride their horses.
• “Well, I have a future, college, job, home, family,” she replied.
• “I am not spending my pay so that I can leave you as soon as possible, okay inspector?” she said.
• She used to call him ‘inspector’ from the police series Inspector Derrick.
• “Yeah I know that and you know that I do not like this name,” he replied.
• “Anyway, your Inspector Derrick did not have my beard,” he added as he caressed his beard with a smile.
• Mariam rolled her eyes as she sat on the sofa. She had some school assignments to do but she was too lazy to complete them. In addition, she had the entire weekend.
• “What interesting show do we have this night?” she asked as Derrick sat next to her on the sofa and wrapped his arm around her shoulders.
• “You can choose whatever you want, I do not care,” he replied as he handed her the remote.
• She selected a court show where the judge was sentencing a young woman. A moment later, Mariam felt her eyes getting heavy. She could go to her room to sleep but she decided to sleep on Derrick’s shoulders.
• She rested her head on his shoulders and shut her eyes. Derrick did not move and she was used to the contact of his body against hers. She loved this contact very much and longed for more.
• When she opened her eyes, she was still with her stepfather and his arm was now around her waist. They were laying down face to face. He was still sleeping and she liked his peaceful state.
• His mouth lips were parted slightly with his eyes fluttering as he dreamed. Sweat covered his body and the hair on his torso was tickling now the skin of her collar bone that was exposed in her tank top.
• She realized that his arm around her waist prevented her from flipping off the sofa. She stood up carefully and walked to the kitchen. She was thirsty and needed a drink. Then, she made eggs with some toast and bacon. The aroma woke up Derrick as he joined her in the kitchen.
• “Hey,” he said as he sat at the table and ran his fingers through his disheveled hair.
• Mariam handed him her cup of coffee since she did not drink it yet and they both like the same coffee.
• “Thanks,” he replied with a smile as he took the cup.
• “You are welcome, how many toasts?” she asked.
• “Two, did you have a good night?” he replied.
• “Yes even if I nearly fell off the sofa,” she said as she looked back at him over her shoulder.
• He smiled. She placed the food on the table.
• “Yeah, I know, I was so tired to carry you to your bedroom and you looked peaceful, so I did not want to wake you,” he said.
• “It is okay,” she replied as she smiled back.
• They ate quietly and she picked up the plates when they were done. She walked to the sink with the plates and he followed her. He wrapped his arms around her waist with his hands resting on her tummy button since she did not pull down her shirt when she got up. She felt his breath on her neck.
• “The breakfast was delicious but I want something else,” he said and left it to her imagination.
• “Holy shit, it is happening!” thought Mariam as she quivered beneath his touch.
• “I will not force you,” he added as he planted a kiss on her neck.
• She blushed and she knew that she wanted it also. However, she could not surrender easily since she always considered him as her real dad even if they did not have any blood relationship between them.
• “I…I need to get ready for school,” she said.
• “I have to complete a project,” she added as she turned and left.
• “Shit,” mumbled Derrick under his breath.
• Mariam rushed to her room and shut the door.
• “Mariam, I am sorry, wait,” he said.
• “Please, forget about it,” he added as he stood at the door.
• He knocked at the door but Mariam did not open since she knew that if she saw him again, she would not resist. She wanted him badly.
• “Please Mariam,” he begged.
• Mariam hurried as she brushed out her hair and put on some skinny jeans with a shirt. She threw on her van and opened the door with confidence. However, the contact with Derrick’s blue eyes shattered her confidence. She rushed hurriedly passed him as she walked quickly to her car.
