"Damn. Look at the new guy. He is hot!" Emily said looking over Casey

s shoulder down the hallway.

Casey turned around and looked at the new kid.

"Yeah, he is really cute." Casey said looking him up and down.

The new guy had black hair, with a slight build but the shirt he was wearing hinted that he probably had a good body.

"OO. Look, Casey!" Emily squealed. "He's totally checking you out."

Casey looked back at him and he was staring at her.

"He's probably just wondering why I was staring at him. He's not checking me out."

"Who's not checking you out?"

Casey looked up and saw Derek standing next to her with an amused grin on his face.

"Nobody-"She started but Emily cut her off.

"The new kid! He was totally staring at her." She rushed on.

"Really?" Derek asked looking at Casey.

"No he wasn't. Emily and I were staring at him, and he must have noticed because he started staring back."

"oh, please Casey." Emily said looking annoyed.

"No, I think Casey's right. I really doubt he was checking her out. I mean, who would check her out?" Derek said winking at Casey.

"Whatever Derek. I don't Care. Common Em, we should get to class." Casey said taking her arm and leading her away.

"But-" Emily started. "Fine." She continued and let Casey pull her along.

"Bye Sis!" Derek called after them.

As soon as they were gone he looked at the new kid.

Derek shook his head 'Nah, I don't need to worry about him.' He thought to himself.

Later..

"So Em, what did you get for number 8?" Casey asked at the beginning of History.



Emily looked sheepishly at her. "I, didn't do it." She looked pleadingly at Casey.

"Fine, you can copy." Casey said rolling her eyes.

"Thank you, Thank you!" Emily squealed as she took Casey's homework.

"Oh my gosh, Casey look! The new kid is in our class!." Emily said looking at the door.

Casey looked up and saw him coming in. He went over to the teacher and started talking to her.

"Class. I'd like to introduce you to a new student. This is Connor Haven." The teacher said motioning to Connor.

Connor just smiled.

"Okay, Connor, you can sit…"she paused and looked around the room for a seat "Next to Casey. Casey raise your hand."

Casey slowly raised her hand and Connor looked at her and smiled. Casey hesitantly smiled back as Connor sat next to her.

"Hey." He said to her.

"Hi, I'm Casey."

"Connor."

"So…where did you move from?" Casey asked

"London." He replied

"That's nice. How do you like our school?"

"It's okay."

"What other classes do you have?"

Connor handed her his schedule.

"Oh. We have the same lunch. Next period."

"Cool." He said looking pleased

"Yeah." She smiled uncertainly.

"Well, we should probably get to work." Casey said

Connor just looked at her and smiled.

'Oh boy.' Casey thought.



At lunch.

"So Connor, what do you like to do? Are you in any sports?" Emily asked excitedly at their lunch table.

"Well I…." But Casey started zoning out when she saw Derek walk into the cafeteria. His eyes immediately went to Caseys table. His eyes narrowed when he saw who was sitting there.

'Uh oh.' Casey thought as Derek walked over to their table.

"Hello, everybody. Why who is this?" Derek said looking at Connor.

"This is Connor." Casey said motioning to him. "Connor, this is Derek."

Connor looked from Casey to Derek.

"Oh. Are you two going out?" He asked a little disappointed.

Emily started laughing.

Connor confusedly looked at her.

Casey shot her a glare and said: "No, Derek's my stepbrother."

"oh, Okay." Connor looked considerably happier.

Derek looked at him annoyed.

"Yes, I'm her stepbrother, and I'm also the captain on the hockey team." Derek looked at Connor furiously.

Connor looked confused again.

"Derek." Casey said shooting him a look.

"What?" He said giving her the same look.

"Can I talk to you?" Casey said as she stood up and took Derek by the arm. "Excuse us." Casey said to the table.

Casey marched Derek out of the cafeteria and into the empty hallway.

"What was that?" Casey said raising her voice.

"What?" Derek said trying to look innocent.

"Oh, please! The way you were treating Connor. You looked like you wanted to punch him."

Derek glared at her.

"Well what did you expect Casey? That guy was hitting on you! And nobody hits on Derek Venturis Girlfriend."
