Chapter 7

Casey's POV

Ok, today is both odd and great. Not only did Derek kick Max's ass, well more like punch his nose, but we also made out in the elevator. It was exciting and he is a really great kisser! Much better than Sam or Max. Not that they weren't good kissers, Derek was just better…way better. As I walked down to ask the manager if they had a bag of ice, I couldn't help the smile that was spread across my face.

"Excuse me, Mr. Venice?"

"Yes…Casey." He replied with a smile.

"Derek, the guy I came here with, hurt his hand. Do you have a bag of ice?"

"Yes…I will be right back."

I stood there waiting patiently. As I waited a girl, about my age, walked in. She had straight blonde hair that went just below her shoulders. I could tell she wasn't naturally blonde because I could see the brown roots. She wore a black dress that had cleavage, and that hugged her curves. Immediately, I was jealous. She clanked in with her black leather boots and turned to me with a smile.

"Um…he-llo." She said slowly.

"I speak English."

"Oh. Good, well I'd look to book a room please. Preferably on the second floor." She said sweetly.

"I don't work here. I'm just waiting for the manager to come back." I replied with a smile. I didn't like her, but I had no reason to hate her. There was just something fishy with her. But I didn't want to seem impolite or plain mean.

"Oh. Well then I'll come back down later, when he is back." She said putting her cell phone back in her black purse. She looked up and gave me the fakest smile ever. "Tootles."

As she walked away, I shot daggers at her with my eyes.

Derek's POV

I waited in my room for Casey to come back with ice. My hand was throbbing, but it was completely worth it to punch him. Not only did he insult Casey, but he insulted my entire family. I heard a knock on the door, and I quickly rushed to answer it. When I opened the door, it wasn't Casey. Instead was my ex-girlfriend, Kelly. Oh crap, I thought.

"Kelly, how did you…uh…find me?" I stuttered. "And why are you here?"

She smiled, showing all of her perfectly straight and white teeth.

"Well Derry…" she giggled. "My dad's job transferred back to Canada, and so I came to come find you again. I went to your school but they said all the seniors had gone to Europe. So I did some research, got a plane ticket, took a cab, and bam I'm here…Aren't you excited to see me, Derry?"

"Yeah…sure." I lied.

"Since I'm back, we can get back together. We only broke up because I had to move, and now that I'm back…we can start where we left off. Unless you already have a girlfriend. Do you Derry?"

"Well you see…" I said scratching the back of my neck.

"Great!" she shouted cutting me off. "I'm so happy."

Before she left, she gave me a 5 second kiss on the lips, which completely caught me off guard.

"Bye Derry." She giggled.

Casey's POV

As I walked up the stairs, I had a little spring in my step. I couldn't help it. Finally, Derek and I shared our feelings for each other and I feel both relieved and happy. As I turned the corner I saw that obnoxious blonde girl talking to some guy. I looked closer and saw that it was Derek. She kissed him on the lips, turned and left. My heart broke in two. How could he? It wouldn't have bothered me so much, but he didn't even try to pull away. As she walked passed me she gave me one of her annoying fake smiles. I dropped the ice bag on the floor, and ran back downstairs.

Derek's POV

Where the hell is Casey? It's been thirty minutes since she's left. It doesn't take this long to get ice. I got up and walked to Sam's room. I knocked on his door, and he answered it.

"Have you seen Casey? She left to get ice and has been gone for a half an hour." I asked desperately hoping he knew.

"Yeah…I saw her about fifteen minutes ago."

"Where is she?"

He gave me a 'you don't know?' look.

"She left. She's going home."

"WHAT?"

"Yeah, she seemed really upset. She and Emily left to go to the airport. Her flight leaves in a half an hour."

"Why didn't you tell me?" I shouted.

"I thought you knew. Sorry, dude."

"Did she say why?" I asked quickly.

"She said something about you and some blonde chick. I don't know…she was in a hurry."

I sighed and ran down the stairs. As I was running through the lobby, Kelly stopped me.

"Hey sweetie. Where are you off to?"

"Look psycho, we're not back together, I have a girlfriend which because of you is leaving. And I have to catch her before she leaves." I said quickly.

"I thought we only broke up because I moved. You even told me you loved me." She said holding me back.

"I only said that to get you to sleep with me. Which you didn't, thank god! Now leave me alone you possessive, life ruining witch!" I screamed. She dropped her jaw and I ran out of the hotel.

Casey's POV

As I sat in front of my gate, I found myself constantly glancing at the doors. I sighed and tapped my foot impatiently.

"Looking for someone?" Emily asked which made me look at her. I smiled and said, "No."

"Ok."

"Thanks for breaking your date with Trevor to come with me here."

"No problem. Besides how could I not say good-bye to my best friend?" she said sweetly.

"Awe, Em. You're the greatest."

"We are now boarding Flight 286 to Canada at Gate 16." A woman said over the intercom. I checked my boarding pass and got up.

"Well that's my flight."

"I'm going to miss you Casey." Emily said as she gave me a hug. Suddenly, I heard someone screeching my name. I look up and see Derek running towards me.

"Derek, what are you doing here?"

"Sam told me everything, so I ran all the way over here."

"You ran the whole way?" I asked both confused and impressed.

"No, I took a cab and then ran. But I need you to listen." He said taking my hands in his. "I love you."

"That's my cue to go. I'll be in the car. Later." Emily said. My heart raced and raced. It was pounding against my chest, and I found my self taking deep and heavy breaths.

"But what about that girl?" I asked with a look of hate on my face. He rolled his eyes and smiled.

"She's my psycho ex, who insisted us getting back together. I told her to step off…and that she was psycho but she doesn't matter. I love you, and I don't want you to go."

"I love you too." I said with a smile. I saw his face light up.

"So you'll stay?"

I took my hands out of his and took out my boarding pass. He watched me closely. I smiled and tore the piece of paper apart. He laughed and scooped me in a hug. As he set my down, his smile faded.

"What's wrong?"

"We have to leave…like…now!" he said pulling me in a run. I made sure I grabbed the bag packed with my new stuff.

"Why are we running?"

"Security guards."

"What did you do?" I screamed.

"Ran past security."

I laughed and we ran all the way to the car. We told Emily to drive quickly, and she obeyed, no questions asked. Thankfully, we lost them. I looked to Derek who was still trying to catch his breath. Only Derek would call his hot ex-girlfriend a psycho, dodge airport security, and run like crazy to tell me he loves me.
