"Casey. Can we talk?" Lizzie said through my door. "Let me unlock it," I answered and went to unlock it. Lizzie walked in and sat on my bed. "What is going on with you and Derek? He is downstairs with Sam and he doesn't look very happy. I think I heard you're name mentioned," Lizzie said slowly. I looked at her before going to listen in on Sam and Derek's conversation.
"Sam. What did I do? Casey seems very pissed off but I don't remember what I did," Derek said while pacing the room. Sam thought a while before saying," Well you said she first avoided you when that one girl was talking to her. Do you know what they said to each other?" Sam asked. Derek stopped and shook his head. "Dude. I don't know how to tell her but...I'm in love with her," Derek told Sam and threw his hand over his hair. I gasped. It was louder than I intended it to be. "Who's there? CASEY! How long have you been there," Derek asked. "Long enough," I said before running over to him and kissing him before I said, "I'm in love with you too!" Sam just laughed. "I think that was my cue to leave," he said and with a smile left.
"So can we interrupt this or do you need us to come back?" Nora asked from the kitchen door. We tore apart to look at George and Nora. "You can come in. What this about?" Derek said after looking at their faces. "We wanted to understand something you said earlier about you and Casey," George said. "Oh," I said. "No it's not like that. We just want to say that we will be behind you all of the way just as long as no one gets pregnant on purpose and you guys don't break hearts. Derek," they said. Derek was about to say hey but I tickled him before he could say anything. "It's ok. Nothing bad will happen," I said and wrapped my arms around Derek's waist. "All right. We will be on our way," Nora said and they left. "Let's go up to my room and talk," Derek said. He picked me up and I was giggling the whole way there. He laid me on the bed so he could go lock the door. I ended up spending the night there.
