A/N: I AM SOOO SORRY! School started and then I got caught up in some of my other stories. Please don't hate me! I do not own the song used in this chapter. Hope you enjoy all my wonderful fans! Oh and I give credit to Zuzzero (hope I spelled that right) to the whole romantic idea. Thanks.

Chapter 9

Casey's POV

After confessing his love for me, Derek decided to take me out on a real date. He took me to a nice restaurant. He wore a pair of jeans and the best shirt he could find. I decided to go buy a dress. Emily helped me pick it out. It was a strapless, flowing, black dress. He really surprised me. I haven't seen the soft, sweet, and romantic side of him yet. So this was a nice treat.

"You didn't have to do all of this." I said smiling.

"I'd do anything for you." He said with a genuine smile and a twinkle in his eyes.

"Cheesy." I said blushing and rolling my eyes.

"Yes, but you have to admit its better than taking you to a Taco Bell."

"Do they even have Taco Bells near here?" I giggled. Derek shrugged.

The two of us broke our eye contact when the waiter came to take our order. Once she left, Derek excused himself to the bathroom. I sat there looking at my hands, when someone took a seat in Derek's chair. I looked up to see Kelly.

"What do you want?" I asked rolling my eyes.

"Only one simple thing, Derek."

"Look, you've had your chance. Derek obviously chose me and not you. Get over it." I say calmly.

"Fine, but don't think this is over." Kelly said narrowing her eyes at me. Suddenly, she stuck her foot out as a waiter went by which caused all the food to fall on me. She walked away smiling as my mouth was wide open looking at my dress. I looked up at the waiter who was saying 'sorry' so many times I wanted to slap him.

"It's not your fault. You have nothing to be sorry for." I said trying to calm down. That's when Derek comes back. He looks confused when he sees the waiter and me standing up and me with an angry expression. He looked at my dress then at the waiter. He put two and two together and figured out what happened. If only he knew the whole story.

"What did you do? You ruined her dress!" Derek said starting to shout. I gave the waiter an apologetic look and turned to Derek.

"Derek, it wasn't his fault." He looked at me confused. "I went to get up to go to the bathroom when he came by and we collided. It was nobody's fault. It was an accident." His face softened. I couldn't tell him about Kelly. I needed to handle her on my own. She's my battle now. The waiter looked at me confused, knowing that it wasn't true but he just apologized once more and left. We decided to leave early. We paid for the food, but the manager gave us a discount for the accident. Kelly managed to do one thing, ruin my first real date with Derek. She can ruin a thousand of our dates, but I will always have what she wants: the key to Derek's heart.

When Derek shut the hotel room door behind us he looked at me intensely.

"Change." He simply said. I nodded and asked him to unzip my dress. I felt his warm hand against my bare skin as he unzipped the dress. He stopped mid-way and kissed my neck and then down to my shoulder. I felt my legs slowly turning to Jello. He finished unzipping the dress, and I turned around to face him. I dropped the dress, and it landed as a circle around my feet. I saw his mouth drop and I smiled. Yeah, there I was in nothing but my bra and underwear. I held his head in my hands and gave him a kiss. I broke apart the kiss and walked into the bathroom to change into shorts and a T-shirt. That should have gotten his attention. I smiled as I climbed into bed. Derek climbed in next to me. He wrapped an arm around my waist and I felt my heart do a somersault. I should probably get an extra key to my room before we do anything we…shouldn't. I closed my eyes and smiled as I drifted to sleep.

Derek's POV

When I woke up this morning, I couldn't help but smile to see Casey in my arms. And then I remembered last night. I don't know what came over Casey, but I liked it. I suddenly don't remember why I was woken up. I laid there confused until I heard another knock on the door. I got up and opened the door to see Sam and Ralph.

"What are you guys doing here?"

"We got the gig, its tonight."

My face lit up.

"SERIOUSLY!?" I shouted, and then I realized Casey was still asleep. I looked over at the bed to see her stirring in her sleep until she finally opened her eyes. She yawned and looked towards the door.

"Derek?" she asked sleepily. She's so cute when she says my name that way.

"Sorry, babe."

"It's ok." She sat up. "Sam? Ralph?"

"Hey Casey. Good morning."

Casey glanced at the clock to see it was close to noon.

"What's going on? And why were you guys shouting?"

"We got the gig!" I said excitedly. Her face broke into a smile and she ran up to give all of us a hug and an extra kiss for me. Oh yeah, it felt awesome.

"Oh my god! We need to practice." She said.

"Yeah, so what song are we going to sing?" Sam asked. I turned to Casey and she smiled.

"The only one we know, boys."

XOX

We went to go shop for our outfits. I got a pair of dark jeans, with my black shirt with the white words "D-Rock" printed on them. Sam wore a pair of faded jeans, and a regular black T-shirt. Ralph wore leather pants, god only knows why, and a black shirt. Casey looked stunning in her outfit. She had on a red and black plaid skirt that was mid-thigh length, with a black shirt, and black boots. She had her hair just let down, red eye shadow, black eye liner, and red lip gloss. I must say, she looked pretty damn hot. I took a seat next to her on the couch in my room. She looked very nervous. I took her hand and put it in mine.

"You're going to do great."

She looked at me and smiled.

"You too. I'd kiss you but I don't want to ruin my make-up."

I laughed and we both stood up and made our way to the door. Sam and Ralph said they'd meet us there. We made our way to the stage and waited anxiously. The crowd was filing in, and there were a lot more people than they expected. A man took the stage and the crowd went silent.

"Hey everyone! Performing tonight is a band from another country we know as the United States. Give it up for D-Rock!"

The crowd went wild and Casey's eyes widened.

Casey's POV

The sound of the crowd cheering made the whole thing more real to me. I felt a hand take mine and I looked up to meet Derek's eyes. He smiled and I nodded my head. The four of us took the stage. I walked to the microphone and smiled out at the crowd. I looked to Ralph, then Sam, and then Derek. I nodded. The music started to play, and as I sang the first line, my heart was pounding like crazy.

[Slowly

"You said it was over

But I never wanted it to end

We said it was over

Now it's hard to be your friend."

The audience booed, and that was music to our ears.

"Come on, let's rock! The D-rock way!" I shouted and everyone cheered. I nodded to Derek and we started over.

[Fast and upbeat

I took the mike of its stand and danced throughout the stage as Derek and Sam rocked on their guitars and Ralph banged on the drums.

"You said it was over and it was not over

You said it was over and it was not over

You said it was over and it was not over

Nah nah nah nah nah nah

You said it was over and it was not over

Oooooooh

You said it was over and it was not over

Nah nah nah nah nah nah

Nah nah nah nah nah nah!"

When the song ended I looked out at the audience and smiled. That is, until I saw Kelly, Max, and Mrs. Johnson, one of the chaperones. I looked to Derek, Sam, and Ralph who all looked the same as I did. One hundred percent caught.
