Hey guys, I'm feeling a lot better so I decided to give you guys an update. Now I'm not sure how long it's going to be, because later on I have to leave to buy my friend a present for her Graduation party. (She just graduated from our high school) and then I have archery and then I have to cram for my exams because I have my last two finals tomorrow and I need to study. So please don't be mad if the chapter isn't that long. Here is chapter 6.

Disclaimer: I only own Shawn Richards as well as Mr. Allen and nothing else from Life with Derek. Also I do not own The Fault in Our Stars either.

Casey's P.o.v

I woke up to a loud buzzing sound and strong arms trying to shut it off. I opened my eyes and met them with chocolate brown ones that I knew belonged to Derek. The memories from last night flooded my mind and they seemed to click in Derek's mind as well as he quickly sat up and took his arms away from me. I felt cold.

"Hey Casey." Derek talked and I smiled at his nervous reaction.

"Derek. I know I said I wasn't ready for a relationship, but I'm fine if we cuddle in our sleep. We are still friends aren't we?" I asked an eyebrow raised and he nodded.

"Of course. I just didn't want to make you feel un-"

"Uncomfortable" I interrupted and he smiled.

"Yeah uncomfortable." He softly said and I smiled back at him. I wish we could hold that gaze all day, but unfortunately we couldn't because I realized that when Derek's alarm rung, that meant it was Monday and we had school today. I broke off the gaze.

"Well I wish we could stay in bed all day, but we have school today." I told him and he immediately groaned and fell back on the bed. I laughed at the behavior.

"Do we have to go?" Derek whined and I laughed again. I actually didn't want to go myself since Shawn will be there, but I doubt and hope nothing will happen today.

"Yes so get dressed so we can leave on time." I told him and I stood up from his bed and walked to door to go get dressed myself.

I left his room and decided to wear a sweatshirt or jacket because I still had bruises from Shawn. At the same time I decided to wear what I used to in Toronto. Derek was right, I feel more comfortable in these clothes than the ones I wear now. I decided to wear a black shirt quoting my favorite book The Fault in Our Stars "Some Infinites are bigger than other infinities" Some black studded short shorts, my black sandals, my black leather jacket and my black and gold rose pendant. I styled my hair down and my makeup like I did when I went to the movies last night. I ran down stairs and saw Derek sitting at the table wearing his usual style eating a bowl of cereal. There was a stack of blueberry pancakes sitting next to him with the maple syrup as well.

"Derek. Are those for me?" I asked softly.

"Yes they are. I know it's going to be a hard day so I decided to make you your favorite pancakes. I would have made me some, but we ran out of chocolate chips so I just made some cereal." He replied turning around and looked shocked at what I was wearing. I laughed at the action and kissed him on the cheek. Friends can kiss each other on the cheeks right?

"Thank you for the pancakes." I said and I dug into the pancakes like nothing else mattered. They were really good. Derek blushed and quietly went back to eating breakfast.

We finished eating breakfast and then grabbed our bags on the way out the door. I noticed Derek had his hockey bag and as we were driving I asked him if he had practice.

"Yeah. I'm sorry Casey, but I can call coach and say I have an emergency?" He asked and I shook my head.

"No that's ok. Really I will be fine, maybe I can come with you?" I asked and he looked surprised.

"I thought you hated hockey?" He questioned.

"That was another act. I actually love hockey." I confessed and he looked at me in awe.

"Well after practice can I get to know Toronto Casey a little more?" He asked me.

"I'd like that." I bit my lip and blushed. The rest of the ride was filled with glances and blushes.

Soon we made it to school and when we walked in, I saw Shawn waiting outside our classroom. That's right! Shawn and I have the first three periods together. Without Derek... I thought to myself in a panic and it seemed Derek realized the same thing as he hugged my waist from behind and whispered in my ear:

"If that bastard puts his hands on you, text me and I will get out of class and come find you ok." He whispered and I nodded. He released my waist and started walking to his class with a warning in his eyes reading to be safe. I gave him the same warning that I will be fine. At least I hope so. I walked toward Shawn and he smirked as rage and surprise filled his eyes. He grabbed my wrist tightly pulling it toward him and whispered

"Looking like a slut today are we?" He hissed and I pulled my wrist away from him.

"I used to wear this in Toronto so leave me alone. I want nothing to do with you Shawn." I hissed back and walked quickly to my seat.

I got a lot of stares, mostly because of my outfit and got a few call me's and catcalls. Pigs. I thought to myself and sat at the back of the class. I looked at my wrist to see it turning a dark purple. Great now Derek is going to have a conniption. Soon Mr. Allen came in and started the lesson on the military of Canada. I was sitting here bored out of mind for the first time ever in school when I noticed Shawn smirking at someone at the door. I followed his gaze and saw a kid I had never seen before give Shawn a thumbs up and walked away. I was confused and suspicious of what was going on. Mr. Allen interrupted my thoughts however with asking us a question.

"What was the Quebec Act?" He asked, but before he could get an answer a loud bell starting ringing otherwise known as the fire alarm.

"OK EVERYONE OUT NOW!" Mr. Allen shouted and everyone got up and pretended to care. We have these fire drills every month, but when the first kid looked outside she screamed.

"He's serious there's a real fire!" She screamed and everyone quickly gathered their things and ran out the door. I grabbed my bag and was about to leave when Shawn grabbed my arm and pulled me back toward the classroom closet.

"You're not going anywhere McDonald." He sneered and pushed me back into the open door, sliding the lock in place. I widened my eyes in panic and started banging on the door.

"SHAWN LET ME OUT! WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?!" I screamed in horror.

"If I can't have you, no one can. That's why I had my friend start the fire. It was all part of my plan to get back at you. Goodbye Casey." He smirked and ran out of the door. I was shocked that he would stoop this low to get back at me. I started banging on the door, hoping someone was in the school to come help me, but no one was there. I then realized that I had a cell phone and called Derek. He would help me.

Derek's P.o.v

After the building was evacuated, I tried to find Casey, but I couldn't find her anywhere. I started to get worried and I was so deep in thought I almost didn't hear my phone my phone ring. I looked at the caller I.D and saw it was Casey. I immediately answered.

Casey/Derek

"Casey? Where are you?"

"Derek. Shawn is the one who started the fire. He wanted to get rid of me. He locked me in the classroom closet and I can't get out. Please help me." She begged and I was mortified.She was still stuck in the building.

"Casey! Sit tight ok, I'm going to get you out." I told her.

"Hurry." She coughed and hung up the phone. I looked around for the firefighters and one of them standing around. I ran to him as fast as I could and he looked up alarmed by my arrival.

"What's up kid?" He asked.

"Please you have to go in the building. My step-sister is still in there!" I told him and his eyes widened.

"Do you know where she is?" He asked again in a more serious manner and I nodded my head.

"Yes. She called me and told me she was in Mr. Allen's room in the classroom closet. Room 1506." I uttered the information and he immediately picked up his walkie-talkie and relayed the info.

"John! Search room 1506 we have word that a girl is stuck in the closet." He barked and the machine relayed back.

"Copy that." John said and we waited a few minutes before the front doors of the school finally slammed open and we saw five firefighters with someone in their arms running over to a gurney. I saw it was Casey and we both ran over to scene. She was unconscious.

"Is she ok?" I asked and they all looked grim.

"We don't know kid. We have to take her to the hospital." One of them said and soon an ambulance arrived and they started to load her up.

"Can I go get my car and meet you guys to the hospital?" I asked the driver and he nodded.

"What is your relation to her sir? " The driver asked.

"I'm her step-brother. Derek." I told him and he nodded.

"Ok well we are taking her to Road-Runner hospital. See you there Derek." He said. He and his partner got into the ambulance and started driving to the hospital.

I ran toward my car and started the engine, then rushed toward Road-Runner. Soon enough I got there and saw the ambulance starting to load her off. We all ran inside and they took her in the back. I had to stay in the front when the driver said I had to relay her information to the front desk. I ran to the front desk.

"Sir I need to know the patient's full name, age, date of birth and her relation to you." She asked and I nodded.

"That was Cassandra Ashley McDonald, she is 17 and was born on September 26, 1996 and she is my step-sister." I told her and she nodded typing the info into the computer.

"Ok and what is your name so we can call you when we have information?" She questioned.

"Derek Venturi." I told her and she nodded.

"Ok. I will let you know when I have information sweetheart." She pitied and I nodded.

"Thank you." I sighed and walked to a seat. Now all I have to do is wait…
