She looked into his eyes, and he could see the pain as she spoke, "isn't it funny how you used to be the one fighting to keep us together when I tried to keep us apart, and now the roles are reversed." She looked up at him and he saw her eyes filling with tears and she said in such a quite whisper that he could barely hear her "just leave; please this is too hard for me." He slowly got up and headed towards the door, when he looked behind him, he saw her curled up in her bed sobbing…..

Derek's POV

"Der-ek, would you turn that damn music off I'm trying to read!" Casey bellowed from her bedroom. Almost immediately her room door burst open.

I looked around Casey's room, I've always hated how girly it was, her walls were pink with a lace type border at the top, and she had pictures of ballerina's in neat wooden frames. Everything in Casey's room had its place. All her clothes were hung in her closet; they were all in order of color. It's like she has OCD or something thought to himself. All her books in her bookshelf were placed in alphabetical or, by author and then title. How did she do it? How could she manage to keep everything in her life so perfect? I can't do anything without messing it up.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN HERE?" Casey yelled witch completely broke my concentration. Wait what was I here for again? Oh yeah,

"Casey it's the last couple weeks of summer before we start college, don't you think you should be doing something fun with your friends instead of sitting here reading a book?" Derek said annoyed.

"For you information Derek, I have a party to attend tomorrow night." Casey shot back.

"This wouldn't be Sam's party would it?" He asked worriedly. Stepping near her bed and slapping her book out of her hands.

"Der-ek! Great now I lost my page thanks to you. And yeah it is Sam's party. Do you have a problem with that? He's my friend too you know." She replied noticeably angry by this point.

Why did she always have to go to MY friends parties, she always ruins everything for me. If she's their I feel uncomfortable trying to pick up chicks, she gives me those looks, the ones that make me feel terrible. Why couldn't she just understand I'm a teenager, we don't all need serious relationships like her and her precious Truman. I hate that guy!

"Whatever Casey just stay out of my way!" I said as harshly as I could, and then stormed out of her room.

Casey's POV

The look in his eyes told me that he wasn't pleased that I was going to same party as he was. But Sam was my friend too, just because I dated him over a year ago, didn't mean we couldn't be friends. I wasn't stupid; I knew that Sam still had feelings for me. But still he knew that all we would ever be were friends, and I loved Sam he was like a brother to me. I could tell him anything, well almost everything; I tend to keep my boy drama for my other best friend Emily. I looked down at my book and decided that it was rather pointless to try finding the spot I was at, considering supper would be ready any…

"Casey, Derek, Supper's ready!" I heard Lizzie yell. I got of my bed and as I opened my door Derek ran passed me I could hear him say under his breath "Finally, I'm starving!" I giggled; all Derek ever thought about was food, hockey and girls, not in that particular order mind you. As I got to the table I realized we were having pizza. Didn't this family know how to eat at least remotely healthy! I got up and was going to get some tofu, and then my mom called after me,

"Casey I got us a vegetarian pizza on whole wheat crust" my mom said sheepishly.

"Awe, thanks mom! At least someone's considerate of our health and not mention our waist lines!"

"Casey I hardly think you should be watching your weight, you're a dancer and you've got a great body sweetie."

"Thanks mom, but I want to keep it that way!"

Then Derek burst into laughter "Seriously Case, look at me I eat anything, and I've still got a body of a god!"

"I'm trying to eat here don't make me vomit!" I said quite proud of my comeback. I've never really been good at comebacks but this one left Derek with nothing to say except a groan. That in itself was rewarding, it was rare that Derek had nothing to say, which actually surprised me at the moment because I'm sure there were a million things he could have said. He must be still pretty pissed off at me for going to the party.

After dinner I decided to continue reading Breaking Dawn, it was the last book of the Twilight saga, and I couldn't wait to finish it. I already watch the movie Twilight, and boy was I impressed, not only with the story, but mainly the actors, boy were they ever cute!

Derek's POV

"Oh c'mon! Oh did he miss that, that shot was perfect! Jeez why do the maple leafs have to suck so much this year!" I was watching the leafs play against Dallas and were they ever getting their asses handed to them. I'm a diehard leafs fan, but I could admit when they were playing horribly and when they deserved defeat. It was somewhere near 1am, the game finally ended and I was heading upstairs. As I walked by Casey's room I noticed her door open and her bedroom light was still on, but I could see her lying sprawled out on her bed with her book lying across her stomach. I quietly went in, placed her book on her desk making sure not to lose her page, and then put her blankets over top of her, then I turned off the light and went to my room, I was exhausted and almost immediately after I lied in bed I feel asleep.

Casey's POV

As I woke up I looked over at my clock, 11:23 am, holly shit, I never slept in this late. I jumped out of bed and headed towards the bathroom, I opened the door, looked at myself in the mirror, and then it was as if my ears just started to work. I heard the shower, SHIT! Derek's in the shower! I ran out of the bathroom and almost immediately Derek walked out laughing.

"Did you get a good look Spacey." He said holding his towel to his waist. "Or should I give you another peak?"

"Ew Derek, seriously I'm going to need therapy for the rest of my life because of what I just witnessed." I said, clearly he could tell I was embarrassed. I could feel my cheeks turning bright red, when did Derek's body become so…beautiful. Wait what am thinking that's Derek he's a disgusting, annoying, egotistical, masterpiece. Forget the last one.

"Keep telling yourself that Casey." And then he walked into his bedroom.

After I took my shower and tried to forget what I had just witnessed, I went to my room and tried picking out an outfit for tonight, but for some reason there was nothing in my closet that I wanted to wear tonight.

I barged into Derek's room; hopefully he would be fully clothed by this time. "Derek I need the Prince, I have to go buy something to wear for the party tonight. He looked at me and I could he was amused. "Really Casey? You think I'm going to let you drive MY car, don't forget I know the way you drive, it's a little scary. I got to go to the mall anyways, so be ready in five."

"Fine!" I was not pleased, I was a perfectly fine driver, I was just a little too cautious. I went 10 below the speed limit at all times, I wouldn't switch lanes unless there were absolutely no cars in sight that meant having to drive around the block a few times before I could pull into anywhere. But besides that I was a good driver.

Derek's POV

"Casey I'm leaving whether you're ready or not!" The truth was I didn't really want Casey to come to the mall with me, I was planning on buying some booze for the party tonight. Sure I was only eighteen, but that's where my handy dandy fake I.D comes in. And if she finds out I have a fake, she's going to lose her mind! She came down the stairs and walked passed me, I don't know why but for some reason that perfume she always wears makes me crazy! I stood there for a minute until Casey spoke, clearly she was annoyed "Der, are we going or what!" "Yeah, yeah, let's go princess." The look on her face was priceless, wait what was that I saw, was that a smirk! "Don't call me princess Derek!" Then we both walked over to the car, we were barely out of the drive way when Casey asked me, "What do you need at the mall?" Now I was nervous, I knew I had to tell her, but I didn't want to deal with the screaming.

"Okay, don't get mad. I have a fake I.D and I'm going to the liquor to get some alcohol." She looked up at me grinning that was not the reaction I was anticipating.

"No way! You have a fake I.D! Can you get me some of that, Raspberry sour puss and some blue cuoroco so I can make some holly waters?" I was confused how did Casey know what holly water was? She didn't drink. Or at least I didn't think so.

"Since when do you drink?" She laughed at me

"Seriously Derek? I'm a teenager too, I drink occasionally, when I, Emily, Sally and Kendra have our girl's nights, and holly water is usually our drink of choice."

I was dumbfounded for the first time in my life Casey surprised my yeah she was a teenager, but she was also klutzilla, a keener and a grad-grubber. Well I guess everyone has their surprises. I did as she asked and picked up her alcohol, along with a bottle of tequila and some beer.

Let me know what you think so far, it's my first story.
