Check Yes Or No

George and Nora never met, Derek and Casey met much younger than in the show. Do they fall in love? Check it out and see.

I used to sit beside Emmylou Hayes

A pink dress, a matching bow, and her ponytail

She kissed me on the school bus but told me not to tell

Next day I chased her around the playground

'Cross the monkey bars to the merry-go-round

And Emmylou got caught passing me a note

Before the teacher took it I read what she wrote

The bell rang for Mrs. Starks 3rd grade class and everyone sat in their seats.

"Ok class, we will be learning how to multiply today, so who can tell me what a multiple is?", asked Mrs. Starks. A young brunette girl with chocolate brown eyes rose her hand almost immediately and a young reddish-brown haired boy sitting beside her rolled his eyes at the young girl.

'She is such a teacher's pet and, she always gets everything right. But she is really pretty, it is cool that she is smart, but no one can ever know that. Oh man, she just passed a not to me. I wonder what it says.' Derek opened the note and read it.

'Do you love me? Or want to be my friend? Check yes or no. Oh gosh, she likes me! I can't believe it, Casey actually likes me.' Thought Derek.

Do you love me do you want to be my friend

And if you do

Well then don't be afraid to take me by the hand

If you want to

I think this is how love goes

Check yes or no

20 years later…

Now we're grown up and she's my wife

Still like two kids with stars in our eyes

Ain't much changed I still chase Emmylou

Up and down the hall around the bed in our room

Last night I took her out in a white limousine

Twenty years together she still gets to me

Can't believe it's been that long ago

When we got started with just a little note

Derek's POV

I couldn't get to sleep, so I am now sitting up in bed watching my beautiful wife sleep. She is so perfect. I can still remember how we became boyfriend and girlfriend. I was so mean to her for a long time, I guess that whole "boys are mean when they are in love" thing at that age is true. The whole time I liked her, she liked me back, and I didn't even find out until she finally got the courage to write me a note asking if I liked her. To think, that little note twenty years ago led to a relationship stronger than we could ever comprehend.

Do you love me do you want to be my friend

And if you do

Well then don't be afraid to take me by the hand

If you want to

I think this is how love goes

Check yes or no

Do you love me do you want to be my friend

And if you do

Well then don't be afraid to take me by the hand

If you want to

I think this is how love goes

Check yes or no

Check yes or no

Check yes or no

A/N: The song I used is "Check Yes Or No" by George Strait. I think this one shot could have been better. But read and review and tell me what you think.
