'Ello, all! This is a story I thought of a while ago and just now started writing. I hope you like it!

Prologue

We've all seen Derek and Casey. We all know how much they despise each other, how much they fight. It's one of those things that are understood, something rhetorical, like how you don't ask a woman's age or assume a man can do more than one thing at a time. (Just look at Nora and George.) They've never gotten along. They never will. End of story.

But… what if the situation had been a little different? What if, for example, George and Nora never got married? What if Derek and Casey had met differently? Would it have changed their relationship? Would it have made everything different? Or would it have been the same way?

I've always wondered why things happen the way they do. Why does the glass fall off the table instead of the person catching it? Is it because their reflexes weren't fast enough, or because that way, it set off a chain reaction and the night ended with… I don't know, an ambulance? Or a kiss? (Okay, yes, I am a hopeless romantic deep down.)

My point is that things could happen one way or another with completely different results. If Nora and George had never gotten married, things would've been completely different. Yes, we've established this. The thing is, how would this have affected us? And more importantly, Derek and Casey?

This is the story you'll hear now.

So, prologue with mystery girl narrator. :) Review and I'll update as soon as I can! I'm going to have more time from now on to write, so I'll have updates more often.
