Derek's POV

I realize what I said to my father a minute ago was real. I wasn't joking...it actually came from my heart.
I love Casey, I do...I don't know when it happens or if I can do anything to stop it. I love her even though that little girl she was carrying wasn't mine, but deep inside my heart and soul I'm willing to sacrifice everything I have to see both happy.

I don't believe that will be easy since that stupid bastard I had for a friend shows up when he wants to, not when Casey needs him that is. Like now for example...where the hell is he now that Casey is giving birth to their first child? He is...

Here.

"What are you doing here?" I stand up as quickly as I can, my dad does the same.

"Where is she? Is the baby okay?"

"The baby is fine" my father answers since I can't say any reasonable word to him. "We just have to wait"

"Can I see her?" he asks

"No!" I answer immediately, anger taking all over my body.

"Derek..."

my dad and his lame attempt to calm me down...doesn't he know that the only thing I want to do is kill this bastard?

"who the hell does he think he is?" I ignore Sam for a minute as I speak to my father

"I'm her dad" Sam says clearly talking about the baby

"for now you are" I speak angrily "but the minute you see her I bet my ass you're going to walk away"

"I won't"

"I don't believe you..."

"I didn't ask you to"

I walk closer to him, with all my intention of kicking his ass...my dad, once again, stops me from doing it

"Ok guys, this isn't the right time for fight over this" he is right. "Casey needs all the support and love we can give her...she doesn't need to hear you to arguing about who is right or wrong"

"You know I am" I say.

"No you're not" Sam says "I know I ran away, I know I left Casey when she needed me the most but I was scared...you have to understand I wasn't ready to be a dad"

"And now you are?" I ask not believing any single word he said.

"Maybe not...but I need time"

"There isn't time for you to think if you're ready or not" I speak as calm as I can, trying to make him understand "she is coming now, Sam...Casey needs you"

I don't know if are my wise words or maybe the air of the hospital, but Sam is either pale or scared as hell. He tries to speak, to say at least a few words to me or my dad but nothing is coming...suddenly he walks backwards, slowly towards the exit.

"Where are you going?" I ask in a very naive way, because I know exactly where he's going.

"I need some fresh air" he says

"What about Casey?" my dad asks, Sam shakes his head.

"Tell her that I'm..." he sighs "tell her that I'm sorry...I really am"

I make no attempt to stop him, it won't make any sense if I force him to love his own child, neither can make him love Casey...so I let him walk, I let him leave her life for good.

TBC!
