Derek had finally sat down to watch the game. He started eating his sandwich but grumbled when he heard someone lightly knocking on his apartment door. He only knew one person who does that.

Casey.

Every since she moved in with that ass of a guy Truman, she has been either crying at his doorstep or pissed off, but this time was different. He told her that the next time she came over at ten o'clock she better have either dumped his ass he dumped hers. Its been a month since he told her that.

Getting up he walked to the door and opened it.

"Its over. I broke it off when I caught him cheating. Again. But he kicked me out and this is the only place I had to go this late. I'm sorry." she was crying looking down at her feet.

"Come on." he threw his arm over her shoulders and led her over to the couch where he muted the game. He turned and watch Casey bury he head into her knees crying.

"Crying tears over that ass is not going to help make you feel any better. He isn't worth it."

"I'm crying because I don't get why I wasn't good enough. I thought I was a good girlfriend."

"Case. You are more then good enough. Any guy would be lucky to have you. I mean come on your Casey."

She looked up from her lap and looked over to him.

"Really?"

"Yes. Your perfect. Beautiful, smart, great dancer, passionate when needed, and you have a amazing smile that makes people go weak inside when you do smile."

She smiled slightly. "thanks Derek."

"No prob."

He un muted the game and they watched it together for about and hour before Casey finally spoke up.

"Did you mean all that or are you just saying it to make me happy?"

Muting the game again Derek turned to her.

"Space-Case I may lie about some things but I do not lie about stuff like that, if I could I would even date you but that's impossible so…" Derek's eyes widened when he realized what he just said.

"Why cant you?"

"Just drop pretend I didn't say anything."

"No tell me why!"

"No."

"De-rek! Tell me!"

"Cause you deserve better! Okay are you happy now!"

"Derek you shouldn't think like that…"

"But you do I'm not better then Truman, we are both womanizers and chase anything in a skirt." he stood up and walked into the kitchen. Casey following behind him.

"Derek you are way better then him! Don't you get it the reason I come to you when I have a problem! I know you will call me out on my shit! You also have never to my knowledge cheated on a girl four times saying 'she was the one all over me'."

"Case I might like you more then as a friend." Drerek turned to face her.

"I might like as more then a friend to."

She walked up to him and wrapped her arms around his waist.

"I think I love you." she whispered shyly.

"Yeah well I know I love you." he whispered back.

She looked up and kissed him lightly on the lips. He put his hand on her neck deepening the kiss.
