Disclaimer: I do not own Life With Derek and never shall I but, I love DASEY :

It was end of March, early April and the past week had been the perfect weather for the transition of winter to spring

It was early on Saturday, Casey just woke up from night of tossing and turning, she didn't understand her inability to sleep, but this hadn't been the first night, in fact it's the 3rd night in a row. After an hour of laying on her back staring at the cheap glow in the dark stars on her ceiling she decided to get up and start her day.

She threw on some shorts and a tank and went on her daily run, and took in the nice weather and scenery around her, there weren't many people out but she liked that, she didn't enjoy the attention she received when she ran. She was about a block away from her house when she saw her boyfriend Max leaving an unfamiliar house. When she began to slow down to a nice jog she saw he seemed a bit nervous.

When she tried to hug him he shrugged her away, she didn't understand until the occupant to the unknown house came running out with a pair of boxers and handed them to Max, and began her evil stare with her honey brown eyes, her features were sharp and her hair was long and pulled into a ponytail, and of course blonde. She looked way too pretty and happy for this early in the morning. She began to drape herself over Max like he was hers.

After her little stare down with Casey she finally spoke "Maxi-poo, you forgot these, and who is this?" the girl had said in the most nauseating voice Casey had ever heard.

Max looked at Casey who had tears in her icy blue eyes threatening to escape, but before he could say anything Casey began to return to her running pace and after she passed the 3rd house down from where she left Max and the blonde haired bimbo she began to run faster and faster as tears rolled down her naturally tan skin.

After she reached her house without skipping a beat she ran right through her front door, upstairs and went straight for the bathroom door, not having noticed it was locked she ran right into it and fell to the floor where she found herself feeling so many emotions, hurt, betrayed, and defeated. The bathroom door slowly opened and a shocked Derek appeared, "Casey are you…" he started but was interrupted by the push and shove of the teenage girl and then the slam of the bathroom door.

After she had stripped off her clothing, she ran the hot water and laid down in the tub, letting everything go, letting it all wash away, the thoughts of the person she thought Max was the vision of the hoe draped all over him, the boxer shorts everything. After an hour of hysterical crying she finally collected herself and began to actually take a shower, when the door opened Derek had barged in and began to scream, "I was half naked and you just pushed past me, who do you think you are? You are the most intolerable person I have ever met!"

Casey not caring rolled her eyes turned off the water grabbed her towel and wrapped it around herself, and opened the curtain, looked at him through red puffy stained eyes, and said in almost a whisper, "Sorry."

Derek first saw how good she looked in a towel and tried to block it out of his mind, he then noticed how defeated she truly was, she didn't even try to fight back with the witty banter as usual. She pushed past him and out into the hall. Derek grabbed her arm before she reached her room, turned her towards him and looked her straight in the eyes, his arms on her shoulders and asked in a low husky whisper, "What is wrong?"

She didn't even look at him but stared at the floor, he reached his hand up and lifted up her face they were now inches apart just staring at each other when she finally spoke

"Max cheated on me," and she began to cry again. "Are you happy now you now know all, The Great Derek Venturi knows everything he needs to concerning my life"

She turned and ran into her room leaving a shocked Derek. After crashing onto her bed and leaving tears all on her pillow she ran to her dresser to get her underwear and bra when she saw the pictures of her and Max, one from the Valentines day dance, another from prom and one of just a day they spent together at the park.

She grabbed all the frames and threw them at the wall between her and Lizzie's room.

A minute later Lizzie came running in through her door, " Casey what's wrong?"

"Lizzie I just need some time to myself" She said as she looked at the broken frames on the floor.

Lizzie being the understanding sister, just silently walked out of the room and bumped right into a still shocked Derek.

Lizzie asked in a whisper, "What happened?"

"Max cheated on her." Derek simply said still staring straight ahead.

"What? Its only 8 in the morning are you sure she didn't just dream it?" she now looked as shocked as Derek.

"Trust me, she wouldn't act like this if she wasn't positive it was real." Derek said still staring straight ahead, before turning and going into his room throwing on his jeans and a t shirt, grabbing his keys and running down the stairs and out the front door, leaving a questioning Lizzie behind.

"Where are you going?" was the last thing Derek heard before he slammed the door.
