Derek's POV—chapter 2

Today was such an awful day. First Kendra dumps me, then I flip out on Casey when all she was trying to do was be nice to me, and then I see Casey run out of the library crying thinking that I hate her.

I still can't get over the reason why Kendra broke up with me.

"Derek I know you have feelings for someone else and I just can't settle for half of you anymore."

"No Kendra I only like you, no one else."

"Derek its okay. I can see why you like her. She's beautiful, smart and you guys are meant to be together."

"Kendra who are you talking about?"

"Goodbye Derek."

Who was she talking about? Kendra was the only girl for him. He actually had a one-girl one-guy relationship. He was really starting to fall for her, why would she break up with him?

As I'm thinking about all this, the doorbell rings. I get up to answer it and Casey's there.

"Hey what's up?"

"Nothing, you left this in my car this morning."

"Oh thanks. Hey you okay?" As I looked at her, her eyes were all red and swollen. She looked like she had been crying for a long time and it really killed me to see her this way.

"Yeah fine."

"You sure?"

"Yeah. I'll see you tomorrow. I won't be late this time."

"Okay, bye!"

Something was definitely up and I am not going to give up on this.
