Chapter 212: Fine
As a man, some things were so far out of his league. That he did not even think about them. But just because Derek did not think of them. That did not mean that they did not happen.
One of those things that happened on the regular that Derek had not really put much thought into, was the menstrual cycle. But now Derek was doing nothing but thinking about that.
Emily was on her period. She was menstruating. Emily was on the rag. She was surfing the crimson tide.
Derek had not skipped biology, and he had paid attention. He knew what Emily was currently going through. At least in theory.
It was fine, absolutely fine.
Derek was fine with it. He was not panicking at all, he was fine, just fine. No need to panic, periods were normal, and women had them all the time. Once a month even. Derek knew all about them, he read books, he studied. Had he already mentioned that he had attended the biology lessons and had paid attention? That he had stayed up many nights studying. Derek knew these things. If quizzed, he could even draw the female reproductive system.He was fine, he was not panicking even a small bit. He was as cool as a cucumber. As unbothered as ice on a chilly day. He was a CEO for crying out loud. A man that led a very successful company. He could deal with this, he was fine.
...Derek was not fine.
That was a big fat lie. Truthfully, Derek was freaking out.
A period, menstruation, blood loss. It was time for Emily’s cycle. Her time of the month...
