AN: So here's the conclusion... Why they chose to have the second wedding. :)

Disclaimer: Nothing owned.


"So what made you and Daddy decide to have the perfect and fancy wedding? I thought you didn't like them?"

Casey sat back down on the stool in front of Olivia, "To tell you the truth, your Daddy."

Olivia's face lit up, "Really? Aw."

"Yeah. You wanna hear the story, don't you?" Casey knew it. Olivia nodded, "You want me to get your Daddy again?"

Olivia shook her head, "No, it's okay." She assured Casey, "I wanna hear a story from just you."

Casey smiled brightly and nodded, "It just about started when you were born, actually."

--

"Hey, baby." Derek grinned at his newest daughter as he held her, "You are so adorable, you know?" He looked down at Casey, "She has your eyes, Case."

Casey laughed, "She has your hair color…"

Derek gave her blank stare, "Casey, she has like 3 hairs." Casey laughed. He looked at her seriously, "Our parents are gonna be here soon, Case."

She shrugged and let out a snort, "Well duh, genius. Their grandchild is here."

Derek rolled his eyes, "I know, dummy. I meant they'll probably ask about--"

Nora and George came in the room to see their grandchild. "Aw, Casey!" Nora started to cry, "My grandbaby."

Casey smiled sincerely, "This is Olivia."

Nora came over to Derek and held her grandchild, "Look George."

George got emotional, "Aw, she's perfect, you two." He looked at Derek and Casey.

Derek nodded rapidly, "Yeah, she is."

Nora smiled at the baby but looked up at Derek and Casey, "I know this is sort of out of the blue but weren't you two going to get married before you had Olivia?"

Derek sighed at Casey, "See. That's what I was trying to say."

She raised her arms in confusion, "Well how was I supposed to know that?" He rolled his eyes at her.

They looked at one another. Derek raising an eyebrow and Casey constantly shrugging. Then after a few minutes of eye contact conversation, she finally nodded at him. Derek looked at Nora and his Dad, "Um, we have something to tell you…"

Nora and George looked at them with reluctance, "What?"

Derek held Casey's hand, "We're actually married already." They smiled really big.

"What?!" Nora let out.

"When?!" George asked.

"About 4 months ago," Derek told him.

Nora arched her eyebrows, "And you didn't tell us?!"

Casey shrugged, "Sorry, Mom, but the planning was taking forever and we both just wanted to be married. We then both realized we didn't want the fancy and perfect wedding."

George stared at Derek with confusion, "But Derek didn't you tell me you wan--"

Derek cleared his throat really loudly and it was Casey's turn to raise an eyebrow at him, "I'm married now. That's all the matters."

Casey was confused yet again, "Derek, you wanted all th--"

"I'm here!! Where's my Goddaughter?!" Katie rushed into the room.

Casey stared at Katie like she was crazy, which we all know she was, "Katie? I called you on my way to the hospital. That was like yesterday morning."

Katie had guilt written all over her as she smiled innocently, "I know I'm sorry. I had to stop somewhere on my way down here."

Casey crossed her arms, "Let me guess. New York, huh?"

Katie didn't answer her, instead she just switched the subject onto the baby, "Aw, she is so adorable!"

Casey and Derek instantly smiled, "Yeah, she is."

"What's her name because I know a name that is perfect!" Katie grinned at the baby.

Casey let out a laugh; knowing this should be amusing, "What name?"

Katie looked up at them, "Katie." She said seriously. Derek, Casey, Nora and George all laughed at her. Katie frowned, "No?" Casey shook her head, "Fine… how about Katherine?!" She said seriously once more.

Casey laughed again, "That's the longer version of Katie."

Katie wrinkled her nose, "Fine. It was worth a try. People around her don't appreciate a good name with they have--"

"Her name is Olivia." Casey interrupted her.

Katie scoffed, "Well that's way better than Katie." She smiled at Olivia, "Aww."

--

Casey laughed, "Sorry, Liv. I know that has nothing to do with the wedding and stuff but I just needed to add that in there. It still makes me laugh."

Olivia was still laughing at the thought, "Aunt Katie, I swear…"

--

Nora handed Olivia over to Katie, "And apparently, Katie, Casey and Derek are married," Nora expressed with slight disappointment.

"What?!" Katie stared at Casey in disbelief, "And you didn't tell me?!"

"Sor-ry!" Casey raised her arms in defense, "And if it's anything my mom and George just found out too."

Katie scoffed, "Yeah, but usually I know all the secrets before these two." She nodded her head toward Nora and George, who instantly raised an eyebrow at her with a slight bit of glaring. Katie immediately stopped, "I mean. No I don't know anything, usually."

--

Olivia laughed, "She is too hilarious. And she went to see Uncle Tyler in New York right?"

Casey nodded, "How did you know?"

"She told me."

Casey smirked with a raised eyebrow, "Everyone tells you everything don't they?"

Olivia shrugged, "I ask and they tell." Casey laughed. Olivia waved her hands for Casey to continue, "So Daddy…wedding…planning…"

Casey realized she was going off subject, "Right. So after your Grandys left, I tried to talk to your Daddy. He kept avoiding me. Every time I wanted to bring up the subject or just talk to him he'd leave the room then come back when I fell asleep.

Olivia raised her eyebrow, "Why was he acting like that?"

"We'll get there. So we finally were able to bring you home and one night…"

--

"Case, I just put Olivia to sleep." He told her while she was in the bathroom brushing her teeth.

She finished and came out, "Thanks, Derek." She got into bed and cuddled with him, "Derek?"

"Yeah?"

--

"I finally got to ask him."

--

"What was George saying you wanted?"

"It's nothing, Casey."

"Derek…" she chided.

He groaned, "Case, it doesn't matter now."

"We won't know until you tell me. So tell me, pweaseeeee." She used a baby voice.

He laughed then quickly quieted down, "Um, okay, don't laugh at me, alright?"

"I won't laugh. I promise."

He sighed as he hugged her tighter, "I did want all that stuff, Casey. I wanted the wedding. I wanted to see you walk down the aisle. I wanted a reception afterwards… where we had our first dance." He was quiet, "I wanted to show the world that I was going to be married to the woman I loved."

--

Olivia smiled happily, "Oh, wow. That was incredibly sweet."

Casey nodded, "It really was." She blushed and looked at Olivia, "You're Daddy would kill me for telling you this."

--

Casey sat up and looked at him seriously, "Derek, why didn't you just tell me that?"

He shrugged, "Because I wanted to give you what you wanted, Casey. You wanted to elope and get married and not have the fancy wedding. I knew being with you I was going to have to give you the things you wanted."

She shook her head, "Derek, it's not just me in this relationship. It's us. Together. We make decisions together." He nodded while looking down, "Derek I only went along with this elopement thing because I thought it's what you wanted too."

He shrugged then looked up to smile at her, "It's okay, Casey. We're married now. I love the fact that we're married now." She nodded and he laughed to himself, "It's funny…"

She looked at him confused, "What's funny?"

He sat up straighter, "The whole time we were in Vegas and everything was going wrong, it gave me time to think. I kept thinking about how this should happen instead and what I wished happened instead. Then I ended up planning our wedding."

She raised an eyebrow as she let out a laugh, "Really, now?" He nodded. "Well don't leave me in the dark. Tell me."

"Alright, it's cheesy though." He warned her.

"It's okay." She nodded along for him to continue.

"We had our wedding during a summer afternoon. It was going to be at 'our pond'," he laughed to himself, staring past her to avoid her eyes, "We'd say our vows in front of the water, you know? Then we would be married. Then also have our reception there underneath a huge tent and it would be night time and we'd have our first dance to our song just 'cause it's fitting with the lyrics." He laughed then finally looked up at Casey, who was crying, "It'd just be perfect." He reached over and wiped her tears, "Don't cry."

"That's not cheesy at all. That's so romantic." She expressed brightly.

"Casey…" He whined.

--

"Don't cry, Mommy." Olivia told her.

Casey sniffled, "No, I'm not really crying." She smiled as she sighed, "It's just your Daddy really knows the right time to say the sweetest things and they always take me by surprise. It just makes me happy thinking back…"

--

She wiped her tears. "Derek, I want that."

"But we're already married, Casey."

She shook her head, "We can still do that, Derek. It doesn't matter if we're married. We can have that wedding. I want that wedding, Derek."

His face lit up, "Really?"

She nodded her head rapidly, "Yes. And it'll be better than the first time. You know, I didn't really want it but after hearing you actually talk about it…" she sighed as thought about it, "I can picture it, Derek. It'd would really be perfect."

He smiled brightly at her, "Thanks, Casey." He hugged her tightly, "I love you so much," he whispered and gave her a kiss on the side of the head.

"I love you too." She sniffled, "And this time I won't fall asleep, I promise."

He pulled back and looked at her seriously. Eyes full of begging, "Please don't." She nodded while laughing. "Um, also one more thing, Casey."

"Anything."

"How do you feel about moving back to Canada?"

She smiled, "I would love to move back to Canada but what changed your mind?"

He shrugged, "We're building a family now and it's only fair if our family gets to see them often without having to fly or drive down here."

She snorted, "You just want a place to drop off our child or future children so we could have alone time."

He smirked, "So you read minds now?"

She shook her head and mirrored his smirk, "I know because it's the same thing I was thinking."

They both laughed for a good minute or two. Then Derek took a deep breath, "We have a lot of stuff to do."

"Yeah, we do. Starting with that one over there," She nodded toward the crib in the room.

Derek smiled and gave Casey a kiss, "Our baby." Sincerity written in his eyes.

"Our baby," Casey repeated as she cuddled with him again where they were finally able to sleep.

--

"Yeah, kiddo, so that's how we ended up here back in Canada. Then we got really married, which you know already."

"Wow." Olivia expressed.

Casey let out a laugh, "So you satisfied, Curious George?"

She nodded, "Yeah. It was way better than I imagined it would be. You and Daddy aren't boring at all."

Casey laughed again, "Well thanks, I'm glad."

"Thanks for telling me, Mom." She got up off her stool and hugged her.

"No problem. I'm always here to talk." Casey told her. She nodded and left the kitchen. Casey went over to the sink; about to start on the dishes until she felt arms wrap around her waist, "I'm never going to be able to wash these dishes, Derek."

"Do 'em later." He gave her a kiss on the side of the neck, "So I really know the right time to say the sweetest things?"

Casey chuckled, "Were you listening?"

He nodded, "Yup--"

"Because you lost to your son, huh?" Casey laughed at him.

Derek wrinkled his nose, "Yeah. Dang kid and his skills," he rested his chin on her shoulder, "I heard you cry," Derek teased, "Because you love me. You love love love me." He kissed her neck again.

"Shut up."

"Make me." She turned and wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him a kiss to shut him up, "So that thing you whispered earlier…" He breathed with his eyes still closed.

She gave him a quick peck and went closer to his ear, "Still happening," she whispered. He instantly grinned and picked her up, "Derek! What are you doing?!" He brought her over his shoulder

"We're going to go do that thing, baby." He smacked her butt as they walked out of the kitchen. They saw Xander still playing video games, "Xander, come on buddy. Sleep now." Derek told him.

"But I'm not fin--"

Casey groaned from Derek's shoulder, "Alexand--"

"I'm going. I'm going." He shut off his game and followed them up the stairs, "Mommy why is Daddy carrying you like that?"

"Her legs aren't working, Xander." Derek answered for Casey.

"Oh," he shrugged, "That was a cool story earlier."

Derek was kind of excited that his son found something he did interesting, "Really? You thought it was cool?" Derek said as he, Casey, and Xander stood in front of their bedroom door. Xander nodded, "Well, if you ask, we'll tell you a bunch of cool stories. Right Case?"

"Mhmm," Casey let out uncomfortably.

Xander opened up his door, "Yeah. I kinda wanna know how you guys met. Night," he went in his room to sleep.

"Night," he let out blankly. Derek brought Casey into their bedroom. He put her on the bed, "If he ever asks that, you're going to tell him."

She shook her head, "No. You are, Mr. 'Well, if you ask, we'll tell you'" she mocked him.

"You know what?" He grinned.

"No. What?" She mirrored his grin.

He crawled on the bed and they did that thing Casey whispered in his ear.
