Derek had let Luci take the noddle off his cheek, thoug hsince Luci had bent over Derek had got an eyefall of her ample chest but then he saw the Catling collapse and stood up, checking the girl over before he said "I best take her to the jade palace, Sorry about cutting our dinner together short LUci". He said to her with a sad smile, clearly Derek was hoping for the same as Luci but duty called and he had to help them.

He paid for everything and then got Luci to help him take this young girl back to the Jade palace where Spike and Luna were already there to check over the girl and get her to the medical room.
A few hours would pass and Derek would be by the bedside being the good man he was always meant to be.
