Sorry it's a day late. Also sorry I didn't do any SUPRISE early updates. Crazy long week and grandfather in hospital leaves you a little whacked in the head. I had to do a little re-writing on it, cause it was written like around the time season 3 was ending. I wanted to be a little more up to date. I hope this chapter isn't confusing,haha, cause it might be just a tad. not to me of course, cause I know where it's going and how it ends. REVIEWS3

Casey had been pacing around her room for hours, well more like Twenty minutes or so, but it felt like hours. She couldn't help but be a little crazy acting. Emily needed to get there soon so they could figure out Derek's new dream girl.

She heard the door bell ring and then heard Edwin's voice yell out that Emily had arrived.

Finally! She thought to herself.

"Hey Case," Emily said coming in, behind her back she was carrying the hideous dress. Casey's eyes widen in shock. It was more ugly then words could describe. She felt sick just looking at it. No doubt this "ugly" would give her nightmares. Nightmares of just her trapped in a room with that dress and its matching shoes.

No matter though, if housing that abomination would give her the help she needed to bring down Derek, then well, it was worth it. She would just cram it behind a corner or under the mattress. Out of sight out of mind. Keep it secret keep it safe.

She took the dress and neatly laid aside; even though she wanted to throw it out the window.

"Alright," Emily said sitting down on the bed. "I check all the available blonde, big boobed girl at school that are in the same classes as well as friend with him."

"Show me the hotties," she said sitting next to her.

"Well there is Miranda Clark, her and Derek have two classes together but their not very social. Then there is Cassie Grace, they have all classes and lunch together, also she is a friend of Derek, but she's not very busty in the chest. Kendra would be on the list but she dyed her hair brunette. So I think it's safe to say his new crush might be Karen Williams. Their classmates, friends, and she's blonde and busty."

"Karen Williams," Casey said smirking. "Has she been asked to the prom yet."

Emily flipped open her notebook and went down a list of names till she got to Karen. "Yes, many times actually, but she has turned them all down."

"Saving herself for Derek perhaps?" Casey said, still smirking.

"Perhaps. Have you been asked to prom yet?"

Emily's questions brought Casey back from the land of evil and sabotage. Had she been asked to the prom? She quickly thought about it. The answer was no.

"No, not yet at least. I mean, I haven't really thought about it."

"Well you need to start thinking about it. Prom is in one week Casey. According to my records the men at St. Thompson Sparrow High School are pretty much taken, except for the select few for obvious reasons."

Casey exhaled and laid back on her bed.

"I don't know if I want a date-date for prom. I mean after my break-up with Max and that crazy thing with Truman, I just don't know about guys."

Emily joined Casey and lied back.

"What you had with Truman is called Stockholm syndrome."

"Come again?" Casey asked confused.

"He'd stalked you and you fell in love with him. Classic Stockholm syndrome."

"Stockholm is when you sympathize and fall in love with your capture Em, I don't recall Truman ever holding me hostage."

"Whatever," Emily said rolling her eyes. "I never did like Truman."

"Yeah, yeah. Maybe I could ask Sam or Noel, but it be just a friend date."

"Sounds good, but I wouldn't try Noel."

"Why?"

"Because," Emily said getting a big smile on her. "Noel is my date."

"Really? How? When?" Casey asked in one complete sentence. "I guess that means you can't" be my date either." She let out a pathetic whimper.

"Yes really. I don't know how really, we just kind of started hanging out and he asked me last Saturday," She said sitting up. "and yeah, sorry." She looked down at Casey, who was now covering he face with a pillow.

"How lame is this, one week before prom and I can't even get a date with my best friend. Now I'm going to be stressing until I get a date, thanks a lot Em."

"Sorry," Emily said, hopping off the bed. "I got to go, see you at school tomorrow." Casey gave a small hand wave of acknowledgement. Emily shook her head and laughed. She walked out into the hallway and saw Derek leaning against his door.

"Evening Emily," Derek said, giving a nod

"Evening Derek," She responded, returning the nod.

Emily turned toward the stairs and saw Edwin and Lizzie coming up. They both gave her nod as they walked passed her, she responded back with a nod. Edwin and Lizzie look toward Derek; he gave them both a nod and they responded back with a nod. A grin appeared on Derek's face and he slid back into his room.
