"Der-ek! You are such a jerk!"

"You love it, Princess, don't lie to yourself." Derek was sprawled out on his bed, he barely looked up from his laptop as Casey stormed in, clearly pissed off.

"Oh, I most certainly do NOT love the fact that my roommate is bawling her eyes out because you wouldn't call her back! You are so heartless!"

"Heartless? You really feel that way? After all we've been through, Space Case?" The sarcasm practically dripped off his words.

"UGH! You are infuriating!"

"How? I told her I wasn't looking for anything serious, just a casual fling! Is it my fault that she went and got all emotional on me? No, it's not." He got up off the bed, frustrated that this conversation was even happening.

"I swear, sometimes I wonder if you even possess the natural inclination to feel any sort of emotion!"

Derek's brow furrowed in confusion, "Huh, didn't know professional hockey players needed that."

"One day, Venturi, you're going to meet some girl and you're going to want her. You'll want her bad, but she's just going to up and leave. Never forget that karma's a bitch."

"Casey, Casey, Casey, when will you learn that karma can't touch me? I get what I want. Always." Derek moved in dangerously close to her. Her eyes shifted, nervously looking up at him.

"What are you doing?"

"Getting what I want." His lips crashed onto hers as he wrapped his arms around her waist. Her body gave into the feeling, she was completely absorbed in the kiss.

"Casey..." Someone was trying to get her attention, trying to pull her away from Derek.

"Mmmph" She shrugged the person off, not wanting to leave

"Casey!" Wilson shook her shoulder and Casey bolted up in bed. Searching for Derek, it took her a minute to realize he wasn't there...it was only a dream. "You okay? You were sort of shouting in your sleep."

Her eyes widened, "Oh, God. What did I say?"

Wilson chuckled, "All I know is I wouldn't want to be whoever Derek is. You sounded like you were going to chop his head off."

"Oh, hah, that." Casey laughed nervously, "He's the guy I met at work today, we didn't get along too well. I guess I'm just nervous for tomorrow."

"You'll be fine, sweetheart." He kissed her cheek, "Go back to bed. You need your sleep." Casey smiled at him, but her face morphed to complete confusion as she turned away. She hadn't dreamt of their first kiss since she'd met Wilson. This can't be good. She fell back into a restless sleep, always seeing Derek, but never quite being able to reach him.

Just a short one for now. Review, my friends! I love knowing that people want to find out what happens :]

Also, if there's any direction or theories you have on what should or what you think will happen let me know. I may draw from that for inspiration :D
