Ch.11-Morning Sickness and Ideas

The next morning everyone was in the kitchen when Casey came in. The second that Casey smelled pancakes though she instintently felt sick and ran to the bathroom. Derek quickly followed her. All eyes were now on Jamine.

"Ah… well Casey hasn't been feeling so well lately. I think I'll go check up on her."

"Jazz is my sister alright?"

"Of course princess. She probably just ate something bad at school, that's all."

"You're using my old name again." Lizzie said happily.

"Well it suites you, princess. Now I better go help Casey."

Meanwhile in the bather room. As Derek walked in the bath room he saw a throwing up Casey. He quickly went to her side and pulled her hair back. After Casey was done she went over to the sink to wash her mouth.

"You ok baby?"

"Yeah just morning sickness. One of the many joys of being pregnant."

"Case I want to be there for you. I don't want you to have to go through this by yourself."

"She won't have to cause we'll all help her." Jazmine said as she walked into the bathroom. Casey was glad that she had such a good friend as Jazmine.

"Well I'm glad but I still think I should be there fore you."

"Derek there's nothing you can do. I'll be fine."

"Wait a minute! Yes there is. Next week is spring break, we can all stay over at my guest house in the California." Jazmine was now smiling triumphantly.

"Jazz you're a genius!" At this point both girls were jumping and hugging each other.

"Well it wont be to hard for me to come up with an excuse to get out of the house, but how do we get to California and what will your dads say." Derek loved the idea of going to California but he wasn't rich like Casey or her friends so he didn't have the money to just go out and buy a plane ticket.

"Well our dad's always let us go to one of our guest houses for spring break so that shouldn't be a problem. As for your ticket I can always just ask my dad for an extra one, I'm sure he wont mind. If he does me and Casey can come up with something."

"Ok well with that settled we better go back downstairs." Jazmine walked down but Casey noticed Derek wasn't as happy as he should have been.

"Baby what's wrong I thought you'd be thrilled about going to California?"

"I am it's just…who else is going."

"Ah well probably the rest of the girls and some of our guy friends." Casey didn't know what was going on but she new that something was troubling Derek.

"Their all rich aren't they?" It was more of a statement then a question and that's when it hit Casey.

"Yeah but you know I don't care about those things."

"Case how can you say that. Look at what you wear. I mean you and your friends are able to go anywhere in the world as if you were going to the mall…Now we're having a kid and I cant afford things for him like one of the guys in your school can…"

"Derek listen to me. I do not care about that. I'm rich fine, but you know me better then that. I love you." Derek was now smiling and Casey felt relaxed again. " Plus who else has such a great body?" Casey was answered by Derek's lips pressing against hers. Casey loved when Derek kissed her. He made her feel like she could do anything. She could feel his grip tighten on her waist and him lifting her onto the bathroom counter. As Derek proceeded to kiss lower and lower Casey knew what would happen soon if they didn't stop. "Derek we cant."

"Why…not…pray tell?" Derek said in between kisses.

"Because Derek I'm pregnant. We can't just go at it in the bathroom." Casey said while gently pushing Derek off of her.

"Fine…Hey Case, about earlier you know I …"

"I know Derek. Just think about it this way. If we go to California it'll give yus some time to figure what we're gonna do now." Casey looked down at her stomach and Derek could see a tear run down her cheek. Derek wiped her tear away and pulled her into a hug.

"Case don't worry. We'll get through this. The baby will be fine… We'll be fine."
