Disclaimer: I do NOT own anything except my characters and I think you can tell who they are. So anyone who gave me reviews thank you! I love reading them. Once I get up to Chapter 7 I'm going to start responding to you readers who review. And I'll start doing polls and prizes.

Chapter 4: Derek's POV

I wake up the next morning to Hella Good by No Doubt. I remember last night and smile. Casey looked hot wearing nothing. But when her white shirt got soaked, that was hotter. Ever since we met I've liked her so-o-o-o-o much. So I just decided to pick fights with her so she wouldn't know. I was scared she'd not like me back.

I got up and stretched. I got down on the floor and did 25 push ups and 50 sit ups. Then I proceeded to do 25 pull ups. Those burn, but it's how I got these awesome looks. I laughed at myself and put on my clothes and went downstairs. I grabbed the closest cereal which happened to be Coco Puffs. Aw, finally food. I'm so hungry I could eat a cow. I start shoveling food in my mouth.

"God, Derek. Could you please stop eating like a pig? It's revolting to see", Casey said with a look of disgust.

I smirked and said, "Why Casey. Either ask nicely or I might spill about what you did last night."

Nothing really bad happened. Actually, with her on top of me, that kinda happened. Even thinking about it gets me aroused. I shift uncomfortably so no one notices. I hear Marti upstairs screaming about being a Princess. Marti comes down galloping on her toy horse. That's when Edwin and Lizzie came down.

"Hey Ed. What's happening?" I ask.

"Uh, nothing. Why?" asks Ed slightly confused.

"Nothing, we just haven't been talking much." I answer with my mouth filled with food.

"Okay", says Edwin giving me a weird look.

Lizzie groans and I turn and look at her. "What's wrong Lizzie? Not feeling well", I ask.

"I have a major migraine and Marti is just making it worse", said Lizzie closing her eyes and rubbing her temples.

"Take some medicine for it. It'll make it better", I tell her.

"I already took some Tylenol", said Lizzie.

"Oh, well I hope it gets better", I said giving her s sympathetic smile. I don't want Casey to give me one of those glares.

I look up at the clock and see that it's already 7:10. Wait, what!

"Casey, time to go. So if your not in the car in 2 minutes I'm leaving without you", I say.

"Okay", Casey says giving me a weird look.

I go out to the garage and hop in my Honda Accord. It takes Casey 4 minutes to get out here. I look up at her as she puts her seat belt on. I turn the car on and we're on our way. I put the radio on 99.5 and Rascal Flatts comes on singing "Me and My Gang". We got to the school and I bolt it to my locker. I really need to talk to Sam. I'm about to turn the corner when I hear Sam, Tom, Brad, and Jay talking about...me!

"He's so not going to do that. Dude, I know him, He won't", says Sam emphasizing the won't.

"Why not? Cause it's Casey?", says Jay.

I perk up hearing Casey's name. I lean against the lockers more and slide more to the corner to hear better.

"Yea, but he would only kiss Casey if he was...probably died or wicked drunk. He hates Casey", says Sam.

Kiss Casey! Oh my God. I would love to do that but I can't. I stop thinking and pay attention to what their saying.

"Yea but what if we dare him to kiss her at lunch?", Tom pipes up.

I stop listening and start thinking. Should I g up to them? If I do would I do it? If I did it, what would Casey think? Actually I wonder what she would do to me. She'd probably slap me. No, I shouldn't do it. I'll be able to kiss her in Cinderella. Since we're bound to kiss...I hope. I start walking to home room and ignore them. Unfortunately they saw me and called me over.

"Hey man. What's up?" I ask Sam.

"Nothing just talking to the guys", says Sam.

I nod my head at them and say, "What's up?"

They look at each other and nod at Jay.

"Well, we have a dare for you." He begins and pauses to see my reaction. I just stand there looking at him emotionless.

"At lunch where everyone is. We want you to um...kiss Casey MacDonald", Jay finished.

"Okay", I say.

They look at me lik ei had two heads. "What's with the looks? I said I'd do it." I laugh inside my head at them. Their still looking at me dumbfounded.

"Okay. Be there or be square", says Sam.

That is the lamest and oldest line ever. I walk towards my home room class to see Casey talking to Emily. The late bell rings and Mrs. O starts taking attendance. I hear Casey and Emily come in whispering to each other. I hear Casey say, "No, no no. I will not do it."

"But you have to. He said he would. That means he actually likes you", says Emily

I feel their eyes on me and that's when I realize their talking about me. So they probably heard the whole entire conversation I had with my buddies. Lovely, now she night not come to lunch and I really want to kiss her. I mean a kiss really tells you if you like that person or not. That's why I date almost every girl. I want to find "the one". I look back at Casey and smile at her.

I'm walking to Biology when someone grabs me and shoves me into a closet. Ah, the janitor's closet. I've seen this closet a couple of times. I look up to see...Casey! She's chewing her bottom lip which means she's nervous.

"Waa-", I begin but I'm cut off by her lips crashing on mine.

It feels sensational. I suck on her bottom lip before breaking for air. I rest my forehead on hers and look at her eyes. I bring my lips to hers and stick my tongue in and start massages hers with mine. I turn her body against the wall where I was. I put my hands on her hips and move circles on her lower back.

Casey groans and says, "that didn't happen." She runs out the door and goes to God knows where.

I stand there against the wall thinking. Why did Casey leave? Now I know that I love her. That kiss was fantastic!

AN: I was thinking of stopping here for a cliffy for once but I won't be mean to you.

On with the story!

I'm late for auditions. That's all I'm thinking about. Mrs. Ceta is going to kill me! I run towards the auditorium and open the door slightly and walk in. I sit nest to Casey even though she's not supposed to be here.

"Did people audition for the Prince yet?", I ask.

"No, not yet. Why?" Casey whispers.

"I was just wondering. She did say she would yesterday."

"True but people are auditioning for the step-sisters. You cannot believe how hilarious it is to watch. She's making them sing "Oh Sing Sweet Nightingale", as horrible as possible. Some are pretty good at it to. I don't think their even trying", laughs Casey.

I smile. Thank God she's happy again. This afternoon was so-o-o-o-o confusing for me. I hope she liked me still.

"Casey, um about today. I've been think that..."

AN: Hey, sorry guys about the late update. How long was it? A month that I haven't written? Sorry, I had camp for a month and then school started. Then last weekend I went to CT. Sorry that this isn't has long. But hopefully the next one well be bigger! So review ,review, review!
