Author's note: Sorry it took so long to update I went away to a place where there was no internet. Anyways I hope you enjoy and I'll try to be quicker with writing it next time.
It was Eleven o'clock and Casey was getting tired. She crawled into Derek's bed and pulled the blankets over herself. Derek Climbed in too they turned to face each other. Mostly so that they would remember that they were in the same bed when they woke up and neither of them would scream. Casey started to fall asleep and just when she was at that last moment between sleep and awake she felt Derek place his arm on her side. Honestly she didn't mind. She pulled him closer because she didn't have her favorite stuffed animal with her anymore. It was ruined now anyway. Derek realized that so he let her hug him.
Casey's Dream
They both woke up around the same time. Derek woke up first but he just lay there so he didn't disturb his sleeping step sister who was now clinging him very close. Not that he minded at all. He closed his eyes until he heard her moan then he opened them just in time to hear a very loud scream. It took a moment to register what was going on in Casey's mind. Especially after the dream she had just had. The memories flowed back in slowly. About her room and about why she was in bed with Derek. Derek leaned in close to her.
"Good morning sleeping beauty. You were moaning my name in your sleep." He taunted. Casey leaned in so their lips were almost touching.
"Yeah, so? You know you want me" Casey said. She knew she wanted him.
"Yeah I do." He replied. Casey was surprised and frankly, so was he. He knew he should have made some smart comment but he didn't. No he couldn't. Casey leaned in and kissed him. After the dream that she had, had all she wanted was him. They continued to kiss until they heard the door open down stairs. They pretended to be asleep when Nora and George came up they were holding each other and Casey's head was snuggled into Derek's chest.
"Awe Georgie lets let them sleep. Casey and Derek have never acted so much like sister and brother before." Nora said. George nodded and Marti came running upstairs.
"Ewe Smerek and Casey are sleeping together!" She screamed. "Smerek! Casey! Get up!" She screamed again. Casey got up first and screamed again.
"WHY AM I IN DEREK'S BED?" Casey screamed. Derek faked a moan.
"Why is Klutzilla in my bed?" He moaned.
"Casey is in there because something happened to her room." Nora said to the now very confused Marti. George, Nora, and Marti Left Derek's room.
End of the dream
Casey woke up to Derek beside her and slipped away quietly. She went to her room and figured out that the sticky stuff must have come from outside because her Window was open with no screen. She went down stairs to look out in the back yard. Sure enough most of it was covered in the stuff that was in her room. She grabbed some ingredients and started making pancakes. She thought that making Derek breakfast was the least she could do seeing as she was imposing. He came down just as Casey was finishing up with the frying pan making the last pancake.
"So first you move into my room and now you're eating my favorite breakfast in front of me how nice of you." He teased. He knew that part of it was for him. Casey gave him a glare and ignored him. He started to think that maybe some wasn't for him. Casey poured a glass of orange juice and picked up one of the plates. She brought both of them over to him and sat them down without saying anything. She went and got her own and sat down across from him. He started eating and pretended to choke. Casey smiled and walked into the living room and sat in Derek's chair. She flicked through the channels and stopped at a foot ball game. Her memory faded back to Max how Derek seemed annoyed and felt bad at prom. She flicked the channel and put Derek out of her mind. She walked over to her back pack and got her Violet and her Diary pen. She went up to Derek's room and sat on his bed.
Dear Violet,
My room has been destroyed! It's covered in gross sticky black stuff. It almost looks like tar. I slept with Derek last night, No not as in sex. Just in the same bed with him as in sleeping. He let me use him as a stuffed animal.
Your
Casey
She put Violet down under Derek's pillow and slid down so she was laying there. She slowly fell asleep. Derek came up and walked in. He'd forgotten that they were sharing a room. He sat down on the other side of the bed and swung his feet up. Looking over at his sleeping step sister he put a hand on her face then she rolled over to face him. Casey opened her eyes and moved up so her head was resting on his chest. She was still half asleep so she didn't realize it was Derek. She thought he was just one of her teddy bears. She woke up around one in the afternoon. There was a note next to her on the bed. It read:
Casey,
I've gone out with Sam and Ralph I'll be back around ten. Don't touch my stuff while I'm gone.
-Derek
Casey went downstairs and flicked on the TV. She couldn't figure out what to watch so she got up to get some work when the phone rang.
"Hey Em. You wan to go for a walk and talk? Yeah I'll be right over" Casey said as she answered then hung up the phone. She out the door and met up with Emily half way between the two houses which wasn't far considering the live next to one another. Emily looked Casey over. Casey was still in her Pajama pants and with out brushed hair.
"Case... Why do you look like DEREK?" Emily questioned.
"What do you mean? I look normal" Casey looked down at herself.
"I'm still wearing my PJ's!" She yelled.
"Let's go inside, so you can change" Emily laughed. They walked up the stairs and when Casey stopped at Derek's door Emily Gasped. She thought that Casey was going to do something to Derek's room. Casey walked in and picked up one of her tank tops and a Jean skirt. She went into the bathroom, brushed her teeth and hair and changed.
"My room got ruined. Some how Tar or something got all over the back yard and my window was open so in my room too." Casey said.
"So you're sleeping in Derek's room?" Emily asked.
"Yup. I know Em I can't stand living in the same house as him how can I stand sleeping in the same bed as him. Well it's not really that bad." Casey replied.
"Hold on! SAME BED!" Emily yelled.
"Yeah... It's great... I mean no it's not its terrible I didn't say that" Casey hit her self in the head and Emily looked at her Funny. They walked around the neighborhood for a while and Emily talked about Sheldon. Casey Mostly stayed quiet until they went back to Emily's.
"Last night Derek did the sweetest thing..."Casey said out loud.
"Case... Are you alright you've been talking about Derek an awful lot..." Emily Said. It was true and Casey knew it she HAD been talking about Derek A LOT. She didn't know why but he was ALL she wanted to talk about. Emily sat back in her bed and listened to Casey's stories about this new weird acting Derek. They sat and talked for a few hours then had supper at Emily's. Then at around ten o'clock Casey left Emily's and walked in about five minutes before Derek. When Derek entered she walked back over to the door.
"Welcome home!" She said with a big smile on her face.
"What are you doing coming to the door for me" Derek raised an eyebrow.
"Well I was just over there-"She was cut off by Derek's lips connecting with hers. She lowered her arms as he wrapped his around her. She slipped her tongue through his lips and felt the inside cavern of his sweet tasting mouth. He lifted her up wrapping her legs around his waist and carried her upstairs to his bed.
He slowly slipped his hand up her shirt as he kissed. He massaged her breast through her bra. Their shirts didn't stay on for very long. They continued to make out until they heard a door slam downstairs. They both grabbed the closest shirts as Nora came up the stairs. They sat up pretending to fight over a pillow.
"Oh mom you're home early!" Casey said. She knew if her mother found out about what she and Derek were just doing Derek would be sent away and she would be murdered.
"The conference ended early so we came home. I see you two haven't killed each other. That's good" Nora said. George came up behind Nora.
"Casey we're going to have to replace EVERYTHING in you're room. That's tar it fell from a plane that crashed not to far from here. So you'll have to stay in here until we can get everything replaced." He said.
"WHAT SHE'S STAYING IN MY ROOM!" Derek yelled.
"I can't believe I have to stay with HIM" Casey said. Nora and George gave both of them a strange look, then went downstairs. Casey and Derek looked at each other for a moment then Derek wrapped his arms around her. She looked at him questioningly.
"Don't worry it's not wrong. We're only STEP sibs." Derek said as he softly kissed her cheek. They lay there looking at each other for a while until Nora came back up. Casey pretended to be asleep. Derek looked up at Nora who was giving Casey a soft look. Derek made a look like he didn't know what to do. Nora gave him a comforting look and he slid his arm over Casey to the blanket which he moved over her and himself. Nora left and turned out the light.
"You're a good brother Derek" She said leaving. Derek Moved down and Casey opened her eyes. The Door was now shut so it was okay to continue their discovering one another. Casey kissed him again. She couldn't resist him every time she touched him she felt amazing. Like she had been starving for days and he was her food taking her hunger away. They kept on kissing until they heard Edwin's voice calling out to Derek. Edwin came in and Casey and Derek pretended to be asleep. Edwin was shocked when he saw Derek holding on to Casey like she was a prize that was going to go away. He just closed the door and left. Casey and Derek eventually fell asleep.
Casey woke up to a frantic Marti running around looking for sir munks-alot. Casey sat up and looked next to her at the still sleeping Derek. She bent down and kissed his cheek before climbing out of bed. She went downstairs to where Nora was making breakfast and George was reading the paper. Nora just smiled and pointed to the sofa on which sat a stuffed bear. The bear had a Tag around its neck and was sitting on a piece of paper. Casey picked it up. The bear was dressed in a skirt and a little shirt with Hello Kitty on it with angel wings. The tag read:
Dear Casey,
I know all of your stuff got ruined so I went out today and made you this at that store Build-A-bear. I hope you like it... And don't get all weepy when you read this.
Derek.
Casey started to tear up as she looked at the piece of paper. It was a birth certificate for the bear. Its name was Derbear. Casey was really happy and took her bear and its stuff up to Derek's room. He was just waking up. She put the bear down on the bed and gave him a kiss. Derek liked the kiss but he didn't like the tears quite as much. They both got up and left the room to find Edwin standing there and not moving.
"Derek, I have some questions for you if you'll step into my office." Edwin said. His latest obsession being police work. Derek looked at him then fallowed shooting Casey a be-right-back glance. They parted ways as Casey went down stairs and Derek went up with Edwin.
"What is it Ed, I have stuff I need to do today." Derek said annoyed with his little brother. Lizzie was sitting on Edwin's bed when they entered.
"There is some evidence..."Lizzie said and paused so Edwin could finish.
"That there is something going on between you and Casey." Edwin said. Derek got a surprised look about his face until he thought of something to say.
"Like there would be anything between me and little Miss Klutzilla." Derek said slyly. Edwin and Lizzie looked at one another then whispered some stuff that Derek couldn't hear.
"Derek, we will need to do further investigation. We're watching you." Lizzie warned. Derek left the room and put his hand on his head. He went down stairs and sat at the table. Edwin and Lizzie came down and sat down staring intently at Derek and Casey.
"Edwin. Cereal. Now" Derek said. Edwin got up and got Derek's cereal Lizzie giving him Dirty looks the whole time. Derek poured the cereal and spilled the milk as he saw Casey walk through the door wearing a short Mini skirt and a small tank top. His jaw dropped until he noticed Edwin looking. Edwin looked away shaking his head. Derek prayed that Edwin and Lizzie wouldn't ask Casey about it because Casey's a really bad liar. Casey was carrying bags in from the car. "Those are most likely full of clothes because of her room... clothes that she'll look hot in" Derek thought. He got up from his half eaten bowl of cereal to help Casey bring her bags up to his room.
After dinner Casey went up to Derek's room to do her home work that being unlike her self neglected to do on Friday night. Derek was out with Ralph and Sam playing hockey. Edwin and Lizzie were watching cartoons and Marti was playing with her monkey. Everything was pretty quiet until there was the sound of a smash that came from the next room over. Casey got up to see what was going on in her room. George had cleaned up what he could of the Tar and was now trying to get everything out. The smash was him falling backwards and throwing his hammer out the window. Casey shook her head hopelessly; she was never going to get her room back at this rate. Not that she minded staying with Derek. It let her unleash a whole new side of herself.
Derek slammed the puck into the net then went over to get a drink of his water bottle as the game finished. Sam came over and joined him. They sat there in silence for a while until Sam looked up at the ceiling.
"Derek do you know if Casey still likes Max?" Sam asked.
"I think she's over him. Why?" Derek replied.
"Well I have this friend who wants to meet her. Since I got over her I told him it was cool. If she was over Max." Sam said. Derek looked at him then skated over to the little door so he could get out of his skates. He didn't want to hear anymore about Sam setting up HIS Casey.
"Does she have a new boyfriend?" Sam asked.
"As a matter of fact she does. Now can we please stop talking about Casey I get enough of her at home!" Derek said.
"Dude whets your problem. You seem on edge tonight" Sam replied.
"Dude's let's go out and grab a burger on the way home" Ralph interrupted.
"Yeah. I don't really want to get home so soon. I have to share my room with Casey until hers is fixed." Derek replied grabbing his hockey bag.
"Dude you get to share a room with your babe of a sister!" Ralph shouted.
"She's not my sister and I am being FORCED to share a room with her. There is nothing good about it." Derek lied. They all left and went to get food before returning home after a long game of hockey. The ride home was quiet especially after Derek dropped off Ralph. Sam and Derek didn't talk. Derek was mad that he didn't know what was going on between him and Casey also that if there was something he couldn't tell to keep Sam and his friends away from her. Sam was mad that Casey didn't tell anyone about her new boyfriend and Derek had to break the news. Sam had really wanted another chance with Casey.
Casey was reading when Derek walked through the bedroom door. She looked up and smiled as he walked in. He sat down on the bed and waited for her to put her book down.
"Case what's going on between us?" He asked.
"Well I like you. As you know more than a friend kind of thing and you?" Casey replied with a question.
"I feel the same way. So what would you do if I told Sam you had a boyfriend and by boyfriend I meant me but he didn't know I meant me?" Derek tried to make that sentence make sense.
"Well I'd be flattered and hope that this is you're way of asking me out" Casey replied. Derek thought for a second then looked at Casey.
"Will you?" Derek looked at Casey with honest eyes.
"Will I what?" Casey raised an eyebrow. She wanted to hear him say Casey will you be my girlfriend.
"Casey McDonald, will you be my girlfriend?" Derek asked formally.
"As a matter of fact yes I will" Casey replied as she kissed him. Right at the moment they kissed George walked through the door.
