Chapter 38

"When are they going to tell us something," Derek asked no one in particular. He was pacing in front of his mother, Jill, and Nora in the waiting room of the hospital emergency room. They had been there for almost two hours and the doctors had given them little information.

"Derek I am sure everything is fine," Abby said.

"Trust me nothing is fine right now. If everything was fine we would be at home with Casey still in the room being stubborn," Derek exclaimed.

"What happened," Abby asked.

"We had a fight," Derek said.

"About?" Nora asked.

"About something extremely stupid and I should have just shut my mouth," Derek told them.

"It was because Casey has been talking to Andrew who hates Derek so Derek said he didn't think it was a good idea for them to be talking and she got all defensive. Then they called each other childish and she locked herself in their bedroom and refused to come out," Jill explained.

"You two can't just be normal can you," Abby quipped.

"We are normal or at least I am," Derek joked smirking.

"She is going to be fine," Jill stated.

"Yeah of course she is…I mean she's Casey," Nora chimed in trying to smile but failing.

"They are both going to be okay," Derek added and Nora nodded her head.

"So where's my dad?" Derek casually inquired.

"Well I told him what was going on but he well he didn't want to come," Nora informed them blushing.

"Typical," Derek said.

"I've tried to talk to him but he just doesn't want to listen," Nora told them.

"Whatever I don't care," Derek mumbled as he started to pace again. Jill who was shaking her foot in impatience jumped when she felt Casey's phone vibrate in her pocket. She took it out and saw that Casey had received a text message from Andrew. She looked over and saw that Derek wasn't paying attention. She got up and walked away quietly only Abby noticing. Abby got up and followed the girl as quietly as she could to and watched as Jill leaned on the wall and dialed a number.

"Casey?" Andrew said.

"No, it's the big bad bitch and I've come to set some things straight," Jill replied.

"Jill? What is your problem," Andrew asked annoyed.

"You are my problem," she answered matter of factly.

"What the hell did I do to you," he responded.

"You keep trying to screw up my best friend's life that's what. I am going to warn you once stay away from Casey from now on," Jill warned him.

"Excuse me," Andrew said.

"Last time I checked you weren't hearing impaired. Stay away from Casey. I know what you want Andrew and guess what sucks to be you but you aren't getting it. Casey is not interested you okay. She pities you that is why she talks to you but guess what that pity has been used up," Jill told him.

"Oh really," Andrew answered.

"Yes really. You have screwed up things for Derek and Casey enough and what you did this time tops it all. You made them fight and of all things over you but guess what she made her choice and she chose him. So stay away. If I find out you have called her I swear to god I will find you and stomp on your throat," Jill threatened.

"Is that a threat," Andrew asked angrily.

"No, it's a promise," Jill said before she hung up. Jill sighed and turned around to be face to face with Abby who had a smirk on her face.

"Well I see you took care of that," Abby commented.

"Well someone had to and I never liked him anyway," Jill said and she walked by Abby who watched her shaking her head.

DASEY

It turned out that Casey was okay or okay as someone could be when they went into false labor. The doctors had stopped the baby from coming but Casey was now going to be confined to bed for the rest of her pregnancy although she would be able to be on bed rest at home. Everyone was in talking to her expect Derek. He was sitting in the waiting room unsure of what to do. He wanted to go talk to her but he didn't know what to say. Really what was there to say? He blamed himself for this, if he hadn't picked a fight with her things would be fine. But he had picked a fight with her and now she was in the hospital and he could have lost her and the baby. The doctor said they were lucky to stop it because the baby might not have made it and Casey might have suffered greatly because her body was so fragile and not quite ready for the arrival of the baby.

"Derek," a voice said a few feet away. Derek looked up to see her father standing there uncertainly.

"What are you doing here?" Derek asked his father alarmed.

"No one called I got worried," George muttered putting his hands in his pockets.

"Yeah well we've been busy and it's not like you care anyway," Derek pointed out. George shifted uncomfortable in his spot and looked away as he cleared his throat.

"How are they…the baby and Casey I mean?" George asked obviously uncomfortable.

"Their fine or as good as they can be at this point," Derek sighed as he leaned back in his chair.

"What about you?" George asked and Derek looked at him surprised.

"I'm not sure," Derek answered truthfully.

"Why aren't you in seeing Casey?" George asked.

"Because dad I did exactly what you said and hoped I would do. I screwed this up, too. I messed up and also lost everything. If I hadn't been an idiot she would be fine and in our room still being mad at me," Derek said.

"Couples fight Derek and I am sure this wasn't your fault," George said and Derek looked up at him stunned.

"You are kidding right? You didn't just say that did you? Have you gone crazy or lost it?" Derek asked surprised.

"No, I haven't gone crazy. Derek, when Nora left to come here I had a lot of time to think. Something I haven't been doing clearly for awhile now. You are my son and I know we haven't seen eye to eye on a lot of things but you have to understand that when I said those things I was thinking about the Derek I knew. My son who managed to get himself in almost every bad situation possible without even really trying and I realize thinking of that Derek and just assuming that is who you are now was wrong. I think Casey was really the one who set me straight though I have to say I was surprised when she showed up-," George said before Derek cut him off.

"Wait Casey showed up where," Derek said.

"At the house about three days ago. She was with a friend umm Jill I think," George told Derek.

"She couldn't have…she wouldn't do that without telling me," Derek said refusing to believe that Casey would go behind his back like that. George didn't say anything instead stood there silently. Derek got up then after thinking and went to Casey's hospital room and marched in. Abby, Nora, Jill, and Casey all looked at him surprised.

"I need to talk to her now," Derek stated.

"Yes sir," Jill joked as she stood up squeezing Casey's hand before she left the room. Nora gave her daughter a quick hug while Abby gave Derek a look warning him to be easy with her.

"We need to talk," Derek said and Casey looked down at her lap.

(A/N-Okay that was it hopefully you liked it. Nothing really happened. A couple of you guessed that it would be Jill so congrats. None of you suspected the Casey talking to George thing which is okay there was no hints. Hope you liked it. Please review!!)
