As I walked into school that morning with the most annoying step sister anyone could ask for, I saw Sam waiting for me at my locker with some kid I never even saw before. "Ooh, who's that? He's kinda cute, don't you think?" Casey said crossing her books closer to her chest as she was biting her lip. I looked over at her with a crazed expression, "How am I suppose to answer that?"

Sam and the new kid walked up to us just then. Casey looked at him like she was in love with him. She didn't even know the dude and she already has the look of love in her eyes? Gross. I didn't like the kid, he looked too…perfect. With his beach blonde hair, his tan skin, light blue eyes, and he had the whitest teeth I have ever literally seen in my entire life. The dude smiled over at us, "No, don't do that," I said waving my hand back and forth in disapproval. "It scares me."

Sam and Casey looked at me with disapproving looks. While the guy with the scary teeth just looked confused. "Anyways," Sam said trying to change out the conversation. "This is Brett. Brett, this is Casey. And…this is Derek." Brett smiled at the two of us, which scared me again. I looked at Casey in disgust as she fluttered her eyelashes to Brett, "Hi, Brett." I rolled my eyes. Who names their kid Brett?

He looked like a Brett alright. He wore a light navy blue polo shirt, with tan pants. He looked like his family owned a damn country club or something. I patted his back in a friendly way, "Nice to meet ya, Brett." Brett's smile turned into a frown when I touched him. He easily pretended to dust off the place where I patted him friendly at.

I looked over at starry eyed Casey who didn't even care that Brett was obviously being ruder that ever. I rolled my eyes and mouthed at Sam when Brett looked in another direction, "I want him to leave!" Sam shook his head no, "Brett is my cousin, he is from California." Casey smiled, "Oh my gosh! I always wanted to visit California!" Brett smiled at her, "It was amazing living down there."

Then I, with my amazing motives, butted in another question. "Then why did you move up here?" Brett looked over at me with his cold blue eyes, "My dad's business. I didn't want to move here, but once I was knew Sam was going to my school, I was just fine." AGAIN, Casey smiled over at the blonde fake dude. "That is so cool, Brett."

Why was I so against her being romantically involved with Brett? Is it because of…feelings? Feelings? What the hell, I don't feel anything. I'm the bad ass at this school who only wants people to feel pain or humor. That was my motto. And maybe my senior quote, I'll have to make a note of that. I shook the thought off.

I need to stop freaking out. Brett is just a jerk who isn't the right guy for Casey. But then again, I felt the same way about Sam. I smiled to myself thinking how I rhymed in my head. Casey, Brett, and Sam looked at me with confusion on their faces. Brett tried to change the direction of the conversation, "Well, it's different here all right." I smirked at him, "Welcome to Canada, Brett."

In third period, I sat down beside a hot blonde who wasn't afraid to show off her cleavage. Yeah, I liked that stuff. My view was messed up when Casey stood in front of my entire view. "Do you think it's funny to be rude to nice people, Derek?" She said putting her hands on her hips. I smirked, not at her but at my thoughts. You wanna know what my thoughts were? I thought that she looked cute today. Her hair was wavy, she had that new lip gloss on she bought with Nora and Lizzie last week I think. She had a light blue skirt on with a short sleeved pink blouse. Casey blushed when she realized I was kind of checking her out. I smiled at her embarrassment, "Is it a crime that I don't like the dude? He looks like he popped out of a parent's dream goal."

Casey smiled at me mysteriously. I liked it when she did that, that gave me the chance to smile mysteriously back at her. I winked at her, then she went back to her seat as class was beginning to start. I looked back at Casey, who was smiling. I turned around with my face feeling all warm. I felt great. No, I felt amazing. "Class," Mr. Parker announced. "We have a new student with us today. Class, this is Brett Firkins." No, I felt horrible. Absolutely horrible.

Brett smiled and waved to the class, then winked at Casey. Right when he did it, I quickly turned around to see what her reaction would be. She smiled and looked down at her desk as if she was some stupid seventh grader who met eyes with a ninth grader. Stupid. I rolled my eyes as I slumped back into my chair. "Mr. Firkins, how about you take a seat next to that young lady in the back? Casey MacDonald."

I groaned a little too loud in annoyance. Everyone looked at me, I just held my hands up and smiled awkwardly. "Is there a problem, Derek?" Mr. Parker said turning around from the chalk board. I faked a smile, "No, not at all, sir." He could tell I was being sarcastic. The kids in the class laughed as he turned around.

When class was over, I headed for my locker. Four girls came up to me with all smiles, and I have to admit, all boobs. "Hey, girls." I said with my famous smile that charmed the ladies. "Hi, Derek." They all chorused together. Just as I was about to say something, something caught my eye. Casey and Brett were laughing together. Talking together. Flirting together. At that moment there seemed to be no one else but Casey and Brett talking and laughing with each other. For the first time in a long time, my heart sank.
