Gerald POV

The persistent buzzing woke me up, but she stirred first and haulted it's noise. I could feel her weight get off the bed and soon the sound of the shower running. Minutes later she came back and once again her weight returned to the bed. I quickly wrapped my arms around her, her skin warm and soft.

"It's Saturday and I was so thinking it was a business day."

"We can work here instead." I mumbled and kissed along her neck, receiving a giggle. This was torture. Taking it slow when I knew damn well how she looked naked.

"I guess you're right... O I forgot to tell you." I opened my eyes as she sat up a little. "Britney loved your bit. She wants to do the music video, but she's gotta finish her album before she publishes the song." My eyes grew slightly wide before I closed them and kissed her.

"That's... Amazing D, thank you."

"You're welcome." I opened my eyes to see the adoring smile. She gently raked her fingers through my untamed hair. Before I closed my eyes again. Admittedly it felt like old times again. Laying in bed, taking time out of our busy schedules for each other.

" Daniella?"

"You only say my full name when it's serious... What's up?"

"Tell me about the cancer D... What happened because all I know is what the photos told me." She sighed and closed her eyes before sitting up more.

"What parts did Suz tell you?"

" Just what day you found out." She nodded and looked relieved that she could skip that part.

"Well... For the first month they literally killed me with chemo. I mean..." She blinked a few times. "Like your mom she would come get me and take me there and take me home. Finn was my doctor and so the second month was really... I didn't think I would make it. At that point I stayed at the hospital and your mom would visit. You were writing these things happen and she would bring me demos to listen to sometimes. " She gave a weak laugh and brushed a few tears away. " The third month your mom got me cannabis oils... Finn noticed they were working so slowly he cut back my chemo. By the fifth month it was nearly gone. The sixth month I was recovering."

"Did you love him?"

"No... It took me two years to realize that and we fought all the time." She sighed and laid her head on my chest. "I really missed you. I never would admit though. I though I could never forgive you, but seeing you again was a breath of fresh air." I ran my hand along her back then traced her spine with my finger tips.

"Can it come back?"

"It's always possible. I smoke a lot though. In hopes it doesn't... You can't worry about it though Ger." She rested on her elbow to look in my eyes. " It will drive you crazy."

"I have to worry about you." I pulled her on top of me, my hands giving her plump ass a playful squeeze. "I promise I didn't stop thinking about you. " I pressed my lips to hers, a smile playing on her lips until my phone began to ring. A groan passed my lips as I grabbed and clicked speaker.

" Hello?"

"Baby... When ya coming home?"

"Dev... I told you we were done. When are you gonna realize it?!" Danny sighed softly and rolled onto her side of the bed.

"Who was that? Really Gerald? Already jumping back into her bed? You left her before and you'll leave her again for me." She huffed and then hung up. I growled slightly and turned my phone off.

"I'm sorry about that..."

"I hate to say but I expected it. She's a real mood swing." I laughed slightly and sat up.

" Yeah I know... You mind if I shower? Fuck I ain't got any clothes here."

"You can wear some of Finn's, though the pants won't be your style."

"I'm just lanky." I smirked and got up, grabbing a towel from her closet and looking for clothes. "And looks like I'm wearing my pants from yesterday and a hoodie. Yeeee!" She laughed and got out of bed, doing the usual of showing me how the hell to work the shower before she headed downstairs to make coffee. I regretted washing my hair once realizing I had no gel to contain the mess. I finally gave into shaving, though the pink razor was anything but gentle against my skin. Either way I had managed with worse. I wrapped a towel around my waist once getting out and dug through the drawers, grabbing the comb and attempting to fix my hair. A few strands fell down, a huff escaping me.

"Mmm now that's the Gerald I recognize." I nearly jumped as she stood in the doorway with two mugs of coffee. "Black as usual..."

"Thanks babe" I kissed her check and took the cup, one gulp to get me through getting dressed before I sat it down. She was watching me as she sipped her coffee. I dropped the towel and put on my pants. Fuck it I had no choice but to go commando. She tossed me a hoodie to which I slipped over my head, still trying to save my hair in some manner. "Say I was thinking of going out for breakfast?"

"Sure, hmm.." She looked to the closet, she was wearing a red robe which she took off after setting her coffee down beside mine. Her black lingerie was distracting till she covered up in a long sweater and leggings. Though barely november she was already bundled up. "Where to Gerald?"

"Remember that crepe place?"

"Mmm one of my favourites." She took her coffee and finished it off as I did mine. I followed her downstairs into the kitchen. She did the two dishes before grabbing her clutch and taking my hand as we walked to the elevator and were sent down stairs. Snap.
