"Mom, what is Vicky doing here?" asked Casey.
"My sister called and told me that she was going on a second honeymoon with her husband considering that they didn't have much of a first one. So Vicky needs a place to stay while they're gone", said Nora.
"Why are they having their second honeymoon now? They've only been married a little over a year!" exclaimed Casey.
"Yeah I know, but it was Vicky's idea. She wanted her mom and step-dad to have real honeymoon and she also wanted some time to spend with her favorite cousin", said Nora.
"But Vicky hates me and Derek. This is going to be the worst", said Casey.
"Casey, Vicky doesn't hate you or Derek. Don't be so dramatic. Give her a chance and I'm sure you'll have the best time with her", said Nora.
"Yeah right", mumbled Casey.
"Casey, I think you should go help your cousin unpack", said Nora.
"Do I have to?" whined Casey.
"Yes!" snapped Nora immediately.
Casey then stomped upstairs. She couldn't believe that Vicky would be staying and to make things worse she would be sharing a room with Vicky.
"Hey cuz, just in time to help me unpack", said Vicky.
"Whatever Vicky, let's just get this over with", said Casey.
"You know, since we will be roommates and will be spending so much time together I feel we should establish some ground rules," said Vicky as she smirked at Casey evilly.
"Ok here's one, don't even try to come between me and Derek!" yelled Casey.
"What's with the yelling? Do you have to be so uptight all the time?" asked Vicky.
"Stay away from Derek!" yelled Casey.
"What makes you think that I want to break you two up?" asked Vicky who's still wearing that evil grin.
"I don't know, maybe because you've been out to get me forever and you've been flirting with Derek since he moved here!" yelled Vicky.
"Oh right! Don't worry cuz, I think much bigger than breaking you two up. Much bigger", said Vicky confidently.
Casey then stormed out of the room and barged into Derek's room. Casey started pacing around.
"Space Case what's wrong", asked Derek.
"Icky-Vicky of course. That girl has manipulated her way here just to make us miserable this week. Me in particular!" yelled Casey.
"Casey babe, breathe. In. Out. In. Out", said Derek.
"Derek I have an evil cousin in my room, I'm not pregnant! What should we do?" asked Casey.
"I think we should first just calm down. If we freak out too much, only bad things will happen", said Derek.
"Easy for you to say, you don't have to sleep in the same room as her. Who knows what will be sticking to me when I wake up!" yelled Casey.
"That's right Casey, freak out. It'll only makes my week of fun better", said a voice from behind the door. It wasn't loud enough for either Derek or Casey to hear.
The next morning Casey woke up after a restless night to find nothing stuck, attached, or dripping from her. Good start, she thought. The alarm clock rang on its usual time and Vicky was out of the room. Still good, but there has to be something wrong, she thought.
She headed downstairs and found Vicky at the table.
"Morning Cuz. Sorry about yesterday. I made eggs, do you want some?" asked Vicky.
"No thanks, I always have cereal", said Casey suspiciously.
"Ok, do you need a ride to school?" asked Vicky.
"No, besides you go to Derek's school. Let's not forget, you don't have the best driving record", said Casey.
"Right, so do want to see a movie after school today?" asked Vicky.
"Not really. I think I'm going to get dressed and leave early. See you later Vicky", said Casey.
"Have a good day, cuz", said Vicky.
Casey leaves the house, confused about what Vicky is up to. She figures that a day in school would clear her head. Meanwhile Derek made his way downstairs about 5 minutes after Casey left.
"Where's Casey? She's always the first one up", commented a half-asleep Derek.
"She went to school early today", said Vicky with an evil grin on her face.
"But it's Saturday", said Derek.
"I know! I took a page out of the Derek Venturi book! She's so out of it, that she didn't realize it!" exclaimed Vicky.
"Morning Vicky, morning Derek. Where's Casey?" asked Nora.
"School", said Vicky proudly.
"But she doesn't ha…", started Nora.
"Don't worry, she'll figure it out soon enough", said Vicky as she looked up at Derek who was just giving her a death glare.
"So Derek, you never told me about how hockey try-outs went", said Vicky.
"I'm going to get Edwin up", said Derek, not wanted to continue the conversation.
Casey didn't realize what Vicky did until she reached the school. When it did hit her, she was furious. It was much worse than when Derek did it to her. Much worse.
She immediately stormed back to her house and practically tore the front door off its hinges when she came in.
"VIC-KY!" yelled Casey.
"Yes cuz. Did you have a good day in school?" teased Vicky.
"UGH!!" groaned Casey as she stomped up the stairs.
"I can't believe Vicky did that. No scratch that, I can. I can't believe I fell for it!" yelled Casey.
"Calm down Case, it was just a petty prank. Don't let Vicky get under your skin", said Derek.
"What are we going to do Derek? I'm not just going to ignore it because she'll interpret it as a sign to push harder!" yelled Casey.
"I agree. That's why I think we need to keep Vicky in check by taking the fight to her", suggested Derek.
"Derek, you know I don't believe in stooping to her level", said Casey.
"Yeah and how has that worked out for you?" asked Derek giving her a playful smirk.
"Ok you win. What's the plan?" asked Casey.
"Well first I thought it would be a good idea to get Vicky out of the house. She's the most dangerous here", said Derek.
"Ok, how do you propose you we do that?" asked Casey.
"Remember the wedding movie had an extra scene not featured in the main movie?" asked Derek.
"You mean you're kissing scene with Vicky?" asked Casey.
"Exactly! How would her mom feel if her daughter was staying in a house with a guy she has made out with?" asked Derek.
"So how are you going to get it to her?" asked Casey.
"Simple. Vicky used my computer yesterday to email her mom and I remember her email address. I just have to send Icky's mother a copy of the video. Next thing we know, her mom and step-dad are on the next flight back here", said Derek.
"Derek I love you!" exclaimed Casey.
"I know Case. I have the video attached to the email already. Would you like to do the honor of sending the email?" asked Derek.
"Yes! Yes I would", responded Casey as she clicked the mouse to send the video.
"Now that step one is finished, it's time for step two", said Derek giving his infamous smirk.
"Oh step two!" exclaimed Casey.
"Yes step two. Something I like to call Operation Sticky Vicky", said Derek.
"That sounds, immature. Reminds me of someone I know. Eric? No. Lerek? No. Terek? No", said Casey.
"I get it", said Derek.
"But I love it, just like someone I know. I'm in!" exclaimed Casey.
