Chapter 37

Derek rolled over and was surprised to find an empty bed.

"Casey?" he said sleepily. When he got no answer he sat up and looked around the room while blinking as he tried to wake up. He looked at the clock and saw that it was only 7 in the morning. It was the late July and Casey was 32 weeks pregnant (almost 8 months). He got up and walked around the house and couldn't find her when he realized he hadn't looked in one room. He went back upstairs quickly and went into the baby's nursery where he found Casey sitting on the floor up against the wall.

"Hey babe," he said to her as he went and sat down next to her.

"Hi," she said her voice low.

"You okay," he asked her and she smiled at him lightly as she leaned her head on his shoulder. He wrapped an arm around her shoulders and pulled her close up against him.

"I couldn't sleep because your child was kicking me," Casey said and he laughed softly.

"My child," he said.

"When she does something bad she is your daughter," Casey said softly.

"Well I see how it is now," Derek said as he watched her fall asleep. After a few minutes she was fully asleep and he watched her until he noticed her phone next to her vibrating. He reached over and quietly opened it to see she had received a new text message. He didn't read it but he saw who it was from. It was from Andrew and as soon as he saw this he started to frown. As far as he knew Casey and Andrew weren't talking. He went to her recent messages and saw this wasn't the first that she had gotten and that she had responded to most of them that he had sent. It bothered him that Casey had been talking to someone who obviously didn't like Derek but he decided to push that aside for now and instead picked her up as gently as possible and brought her to their bed. He got her in and covered her with the blankets before leaving the room. He hung out for about two hours before Casey woke up again and came downstairs.

"Hi," she said brightly.

"Hey," he said watching her closely as she opened the refrigerator door. She stood there for a few minutes humming to herself before she closed it and turned back to look at him.

"I'm not really hungry," she said and he smiled even though he was upset with her.

"That's unusual," he remarked.

"I know kind of freaky actually," she said.

"So I noticed something earlier," Derek said finally deciding to bring up Andrew.

"What?" she asked him smiling.

"Well it seems like Andrew just won't go away will he? I mean I noticed that you two have been talking to at least someone was talking to him using your phone," Derek said and Casey's smiled faded.

"What are you going through my stuff now?" she asked him annoyed.

"Well he text messaged you when you fell asleep and I couldn't help but notice he had before and that you replied," Derek told her.

"What am I not allowed to have friends," Casey said defensively.

"Oh you can have friends but I would like it if you generally stayed away from people who hate me," Derek commented and she rolled her eyes.

"He doesn't hate you," she said annoyed.

"Yes he does Casey," Derek said.

"Well that doesn't mean I am going to stop talking to him," Casey stated.

"Are you serious? This is the guy who tried to kiss you as soon as I was out of the way," Derek said.

"Well he won't do it again," she said.

"Says who?" Derek asked.

"Says me," Casey answered.

"You are being ridiculous you realize this right," Derek responded and she rolled her eyes again.

"Stop rolling your eyes," he demanded.

"No," she said rolling her eyes again.

"Do you realize how childish you are being," he asked her.

"I'm being childish? You are, you are the one telling me who I can talk to," she yelled.

"I am not going to argue with you," he said calmly.

"Because you know I am right," Casey said.

"No, you are wrong. What if I talked to Amber all the time?" he asked her.

"I don't care talk to your little whore all you want," Casey yelled leaving the kitchen. He followed her.

"Amber is not a whore," he said.

"Well of course you would say that," Casey exclaimed as she walked up the stairs.

"Yeah because she isn't whore," Derek yelled after her. Moments later he heard a door upstairs slam shut and he rolled his eyes.

"And I am childish," he mumbled to himself.

DASEY

"He drives me crazy," Casey said to Jill who was sitting next to her on Casey and Derek's bed. Jill had come over an hour after the huge fight and was sitting with Casey as Casey ate the food Jill had brought up for her because Casey refused to leave the room.

"He is just being Derek," Jill said.

"No, he is being an ass," Casey remarked.

"I hate to say this but I agree with him," Jill said.

"Excuse me," Casey said.

"Well Casey I mean Andrew is a jerk and he does hate Derek. I can see where Derek would be upset because Andrew is always putting Derek down when Derek loves you more than air. It's almost like you are taking Andrew's side over Derek's," Jill explained and Casey frowned.

"I'm not taking anyone's side," Casey stated simply.

"Yes you are whether you realize it or not," Jill told her. They sat in silence for a few minutes before Casey sighed.

"Great so I am wrong," Casey exclaimed.

"Yep," Jill said. Casey got up and was walking across the room when suddenly she stopped.

"What's up?" Jill said and Casey didn't say anything. As she walked Casey had felt a sudden sharp pain across her stomach and it was spreading fast until she had to bend in pain.

"Oh my god Casey what's wrong," Jill said as she got up and walked over to her quickly.

"I think something is wrong," Casey said her voice so soft Jill could barely hear it.

"Hold on I will go get Derek okay," Jill said.

"No, please don't leave me. I'm scared," she said as she fell slowly to the floor.

"Okay I won't go. Derek! Derek come here!" Jill yelled. It took only a couple minutes before he appeared at the door hearing the fear and desperation in Jill's voice.

"Casey," he said breathless as he went to sit next to her.

"Something's wrong," Jill told him.

"Well apparently," Derek said.

"Hey don't be rude with me," Jill said as Derek picked Casey up in his arms.

"Call her mom and mine," Derek told Jill as he carried Casey out of the room.

"I don't have their numbers," Jill told him following behind him.

"Get Casey's phone," Derek told her. Jill went back to the room and quickly grabbed Casey's phone and ran back out going to Derek's car. Derek put Casey in the back seat and Jill sat next to her calling their mothers. Derek drove going at least 10 over the speed limit the whole time while looking back at Casey every chance he got who was holding her stomach in pain. Her eyes showed how much pain she was in as Jill held her hand squeezing it.

"It's going to be okay Casey," Jill said softly but Casey didn't say anything back.
