And here is the last and Final chapter to Thin! I hope all of you enjoy it!
Its was a year after her release and Casey hurried around frantically getting ready for the prom. Her and Derek had been together for the past year an a half. That night they would celebrate one of the biggest nights of the rest of their life's. Derek was with his friend Conner picking up their tux's. Casey was at the house with her friend Jordan adding the final touches to their make up. Casey's hair was pulled back into a ponytail, that consumed of long flowing curls. She had light make up except around her eyes, it was darker. Some black eyeliner and purple eye shadow. Her dress was a beautiful black ball gown with a purple bow that wrapped around the her waist.
Once Derek and Conner arrived back at the house they immediately got dressed and returned down stairs for pictures. Lizzie and Edwin took a few group pictures, then a couple of just the girls and a couple of just the guys. Then they had Casey and Derek pose for a couple pictures together. When they finished with pictures they hurried out to the limo and headed of to the prom.
"This is going to be a night to remember!" Casey cheered pulling out the camera she had brought. "I love you!" Derek whispered into her ear as she relaxed beside him. "I love you too!" She whispered back. Neither of them had been as happy as they were that past year they spent together. "Who's ready to PARTY!" Conner shouted as they pulled up to the hotel that the prom was being held at. It was known for its large ball room. They climbed out of the limo and headed into the building, where they spent the night dancing, laughing, and just having the best time of their lives.
After the prom both couples retreated to the limo, that was destined to take them home. "That was the greatest night ever!" Jordan cheered. "Hey we still have graduation." Casey reminded them. They all cheered together. "Can you believe Heidi and Pacey won prom king and king!" Casey complained to Jordan, for both guys were passed out. "I know! I so wanted Matalyn and Jared to get it!" Jordan replied, Casey nodded in agreement "Yea Mattie is like the prettiest slash nicest girl in the senior class."
The limo came to its first stop and Jordan and Conner climbed out. "See ya guys Saturday!" Conner said closing the door. Casey sat closer to Derek Resting her head on his shoulder. "Hi pretty girl" Derek whispered. "Hi cute guy" She replied. "I had a great time with you tonight!" Derek said wrapping his arm around her waist and kissing her forehead. "Me too!" she said snuggling her head farther into his chest.
"I love you!" he whispered, she just nodded in reply. She started to dose off when the limo came to its final stop. "Baby we're home!" He said shaking her awake.
Once they made it inside Casey kicked of her heels, and Derek tossed his jacket onto a chair. "I'm starving!" Casey complained. "Want to go grab something to eat?" Derek asked, hoping she would for he was starving too. "yea just give me a sec to change into something more... comfortable." she replied and ran up to her room. When she returned she wore a black t-shirt with something randomly printed across the chest and a pair of blue wind pants with white stripes down the leg. "ready!" She said grabbing his car keys and throwing them to him.
"Where to my love?" Derek joked as he started the car, the engine roaring. "Hmm MCDONALDS!" Casey laughed clapping her hands. It was her favorite place to eat. He didn't care where it was she chose, as long as she was eating he didn't care. "McDonalds for Miss McDonald it is!" He said with a smirk as he put the car in reverse and backed out of the driveway. They should have stayed in, and ordered something. Tonight just wasn't the night to be out driving. But they say everything happens for a reason.
Casey turned on the radio, Unbelievable by Kaci Brown. It was the song she use to turn on a blare to drown out all thoughts of Derek. She smiled as the song played. She reached over and took his hand in hers.
I Wish you didn't love me "I Love you" She said looking over at him. Not knowing it would be the last time she'd ever say it to him. He squeezed her hand.
I Wish you'd make this easy
It was love that caught me
Now it's fear that keeps with you
I wasnt to be by your side They pulled into the drive threw of the 24 hour McDonalds. "What do you want?" he asked. She told him and went back to looking out the window and listening to the song.
So I can close me eyes
To the growing emptiness inside that kills me
When I'm with you
You try to break me Try to hate me
So you can fall out of love
You want to make me believe that I'm crazy
That I'm nothing with out you
It's Unbelievable but I believe you He Paid for the food and pulled up to the next window. He glanced over at Casey, she seemed so deep in thought, he didn't want to disturb her. They should have just ate inside, just this once.
It's Unforgivable but i forgave you
Insane what love Can do
That keeps me coming back to you
You're irreplaceable but I'll replace you
Now I'm standing on my own
Alone
I feel you in my shadow
My heart feels cold and hollow
No matter where I run I see
Your eyes always follow me
Try to hold me
Try to own me
keeping something that's not yours
You want to make believe that I'm crazy
Make me think that your the cure
The girl handed him their food and drinks. He sat them down in the spot between them. And pulled around to the exit. "You okay?" he asked.
It's Unbelievable but I believe you "I'm just glad I got you back, and we didn't stay apart all this time!" He just smiled and mouth 'me too' and pulled out onto the road. He should have taken another way.
It's Unforgivable but i forgave you
Insane what love love Can do
That keeps me coming back to you
You're irreplaceable but I'll replace you
Now I'm standing on my own
Alone
You're still haunting me They came to a stop light and he took a drink of his pop. "You look so tired." He said looking over at her. She smiled, "I am, but I'm not to tired to stay up with you and eat, then maybe we can relax on the couch and watch some movie!" She replied.
In my sleep
You're all I see
But I can't go back
Cause I know it's wrong
For us to go on
And I'm growing strong
to confront my fears
It's Unbelievable but I believe you The song came to a stop, then another started to play. It was Untitled by Simple Plan. The light turned green and Derek started to drive again. Casey knowing the song sung along. It meant more than either of them could have imagined.
It's Unforgivable but i forgave you
Insane what love can do
That keeps me coming back to you
You're irreplaceable but I'll replace you
Now I'm standing on my own
Alone
open my eyes And I can't stand the pain
I try to see but I'm blinded by the white light
I can't remember how
I can't remember why
I'm lying here tonight
And I can't make it go away
No I can't stand the pain
Derek turned onto another street. He should have taken another way. It was to late now, the choice had been made and he was taking the wrong way. They were almost home, so close it was sad they wouldn't have ever made it.
How could this happen to me "Geesh this is a sad enough song isn't it?" Derek said looking over to Casey, who Screamed "Derek look out!" All he saw was a bright light coming straight for them. He swerved to the right causing the truck to plow straight into his side.
I made my mistakes
I've got no where to run
The night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me
Casey opens her eyes, The pain is to much for her to move. She looks over there's Derek. His head is busted open. His face is pale. She grows scared that he might be dead. "Der...Derek" she chokes out. But nothing, Tears start to pour down her face.
Everybody's screaming The Ambulance comes, But its all to late. Casey trys to scream, but no one can hear her. They rush to Derek, That's when she hears them say it. "He's gone!" Her he's gone her eyes grow more heavy. She tries to fight from passing out but its too hard. If only they hadn't come out, she thinks. She thinks back to the prom, when they were the happiest they've been. When nothing but them mattered. She can't fight it no more. She slips of into the darkness.
I try to make a sound but no one hears me
I'm slipping off the edge
I'm hanging by a thread
I wanna start this over again
So I try to hold onto a time when nothing mattered
And I can't explain what happened
And I can't erase the things that I've done
No I can't
How could this happen to me
I made my mistakes
I've got no where to run
The night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me
"She's got a pulse!" The Medic Yells towards the ambulance. They load her into the Squad and rush her to the hospital. She's fading now, her breathings slower. How can she live with out him? What kind of life would that been. The machines start to beep. "We're loosing her! Come on stay with us!" The Doctor pleads as he works frantically to save her life.
made my mistakes
I've got no where to run
The night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me
"Call it!" the doctor says. "Time of death... 3:48 am May 29th, 2006" A nurse replys, and the machines come to a stop and turn off.
Around 4am the phone rang, No one could have guessed what was awaiting on the other line. "Hello?" Lizzie answered still half asleep. "Yes this is the McDonald-Venturi Residence. Why what's going on?" She questioned starting to get a little worried. "What?.. No that... that cant be possible!" she cried. "Tonight was their prom, How could this happen?" She grew more upset and took the phone to George and Nora. She then went to Edwin's room, waking him up and telling him the news. He took it pretty hard. Neither knew how to tell Marti, for she was still young and probably wouldn't understand.
The Next day they all loaded up and headed to the hospital. Their parents had to identify the bodies, and collect all their personal belongings. Ray and Austin sat in the waiting area, while they waited on a nurse to bring out their stuff. George and Nora followed slowly behind a doctor, to the morgue part of the hospital. They walked into a large room, and headed over to the back wall. The Doctor pulled out two metal slabs, The first being Derek. When George saw his son, lying there cold, pale, and still his head was covered blood, he Flinch. Neither Parent cried, but both looked both upset and Guilty. Guilty they never cared enough, Guilty they didn't give their kids the attention they disserved. Next came Casey, She looked more peaceful. She to was pale and cold. After both teens were identified, they headed back to Lizzie and Edwin.
A tall thin nurse walked up to where Lizzie and Edwin were sitting. She held two large plastic bags filled with cloths, and other odds and ends. "Sign Here please?" The nurse said handing a clipboard to Edwin. After the nurse left they opened to bags and began going threw the stuff. Edwin had just reached into the pocket of Derek pants, when He felt something. He pulled out a small black box, He handed it to Lizzie. Tears now pouring down their cheeks. She opened it and there was a small, yet beautiful ring. "He must of have been planning on purposing." Edwin said taking the box and closing it. "I we should put it on Casey at the funeral." Edwin cried, Lizzie Agreed. Its what Derek wanted, for her to have it. They both sat in silence, grieving, until their parents arrived.
A night that started off so great and ended so tragically. A couple who still had thier lives a head of them, only to have it all cut short. All because one person decided drinking and driving was harmless and fun.
