Derek woke up to sound of his alarm clock; he rolled over, and smacked it. He lifted himself out of bed and onto his feet; he felt dizzy and stumbled to the bathroom. He started brushing his teeth, but started to feel nauseous, the room started to spin; he fell to the floor. After a few minutes, Derek came to and stood up, he was feeling a lot better; he looked down and noticed there was vomit on the floor. Derek cleaned the mess, got dressed, and went downstairs.

"Morning Derek." Nora said, she motioned to Derek asking him if wanted any eggs, he shook his head no.

"Not like you to turn down food. This has been happening for a while now."

"I'm just not hungry right now. I promise, I will eat tons at dinner to make up for it." He poured himself some coffee and started sipping on it.

Nora smiled and went to sink to start washing dishes.

"Casey left for school yet?"

Nora looked over her shoulder at him. "Yea, she left pretty early today. She said had some important things to care of, and was just going to jog there." Derek nodded. He looked at his watch, took one last sip of his coffee, and was out the door.

Derek was at his locker getting books, he could feel himself starting to feel sick again, but because of his attendance record, he couldn't afford to miss today, so he would have to suck it up and deal with it like he had been for the last month. He looked over, and saw Emily coming up. If anyone should know what is up with Casey, would be her.

"Hey Emily." Derek said walking up from behind her, he put his arm around her shoulders.

Emily blushed. "Hey Derek."

"So Emily I haven't seen you around the house lately, everything okay with you and Casey?"

"You noticed my absent?" She got excited. "Things with me and Casey are okay, I mean I think they are. I haven't really talked to her lately, she has been avoiding everyone she knows. I think that she is still not over Max."

"They broke up?" Derek said surprised stopping in mid walk.

Emily looked at Derek as if he were crazy. "Yea, for about three weeks now I would guess. Where have you been?"

"Good question."

Emily giggled. "Well I have to get to class." She waved goodbye.

Derek smiled and watched her walk down the hall; he turned and noticed Casey over in the corner. She wasn't looking like her usual perky preppiness, instead she was wearing black jeans with a gray long sleeved shirt, and hair pulled tightly into a ponytail. Derek decided to do some snooping in her room after school. She gets home late usually.

Derek synchronized his watch, after school operation, "Snoop on Mc C" would be ago, and as much as he was looking forward to school being over, he had to get to class. He groaned the whole way there.
