True Love?
! Disclaimer: I do not own Life With Derek! I do own the characters that are not on the show. !
Meeting
George and Nora never met. Derek and Casey meet when they are in the eighth grade, when Casey and her family move to Montreal and she ends up going to his jr. high. Will they fall in love, or hate each other like on the show? Derek and Casey will be slightly OOC in this story.
Casey walked into her new room to get her backpack. She had woken up early for some reason, so she got all of her stuff ready for school early. While Casey was putting her shoes on, her younger sister, Lizzie, walked in and told her that their mother, Nora, said that she was going to be late for school if she didn't hurry up. Casey told Lizzie to tell her mom that she would be down in a second and Lizzie left. Nora drove Casey to school first, because it was closer to the house than Lizzie's school was.
"Are you sure you don't need me to come in and help you get settled?", asked Nora.
"No Mom, I am in the eighth grade, I can handle it.", said Casey, trying to assure her mother that she would be fine.
Casey got out of the car and walked up the front steps of the school. A boy who seemed to be her age stopped her.
"Are you new here?", he asked.
"Yes, um…could you tell me where the office is?, Casey asked.
"Yeah, come on, I'll show you.", the brown eyed boy said, leading Casey to the office.
"I'm Derek, Derek Venturi.", the boy said.
"I'm Casey MacDonald.", she replied.
Derek showed her to the office and waited for her to get all checked in. The principal asked Derek if he wouldn't mind showing Casey around for first period. Since he didn't particularly like class, he happily agreed. He led Casey out of the office and down the hall. He showed her where the bathrooms, gym, lunch room, nurse's room, the stairs, and where her locker was (which happened to be a few lockers down from his.)
"What is your next class?", Derek asked Casey.
"Um, English. You?", she asked.
"I have English too. Let me see what other classes we have together.", Derek said.
"Ok, here's my schedule.", Casey said as she handed him her schedule.
"Oh, cool, we have almost all of our classes together.", Derek said. "The only class we don't have is gym, which is separated anyway."
"Great, I'll have someone I know!", Casey chirped. At this, Derek smiled. He was never really this nice to a girl if he didn't want to make out, but when he saw her, he couldn't think of anything to do but be as nice as he could be, she had that effect on him apparently.
A/N: I know it moved a little fast, but I had to have them meet and at least stand each other really soon for what I want from the story to well, happen. Please tell me what you think and give me a few ideas on what should happen next!! R&R!!!!
