Author's Note: Hey everyone, sorry about not updating last night... I tried like four times, but it wouldn't let me update for some reason! Grr. Well maybe I can update twice today. We'll see ;-) Enjoy!

We were behind schedule thanks to Derek, who had fallen back to sleep. He was showering still while we waited for him in the minivan. Mom and George had decided that we hit the local amusement park today, as it was supposed to rain tomorrow.

Derek walked out of the house, his hair spiky and still wet from his shower. His hand brushed against mine as he sat down next to me, and I felt butterflies in my stomach again. How did he manage to make me feel like that from one simple touch?

"Everyone set?" George asked, looking back at his eldest son.

"Ay ay, Captain," Derek joked, saluting him. He pleasantly surprised me by unconsciously taking my hand in his. He really was a different person now that we were in a secret, sort-of-scandalous relationship. I had to admit I was truly liking the person he had become. He had even let me shower first this morning.

Wow. That's a big sacrifice on Derek's part.

Leave it to Mom to even ruin a concealed moment. "Casey, honey, Sam left you a message last night," she informed me.

I saw Derek's jaw instantly tense.

"Um, thanks, Mom," I said. "I'll call him tonight." I said that last part for Derek as well. I was going to break up with Sam tonight. I don't think that Derek really believed that I would. I'd show him.

I scooted closer to Derek until our bare legs were touching, his slightly hairy, tanner ones against my smooth, paler ones. I definitely had to get some more sun.

As soon as we got to the amusement park, everyone ran out of the van and it was like it was every man for himself. My jaw just dropped as I watched my whole family start running towards the park like it was some kind of Disney Land commercial.

To me, the park looked a bit on the dull side. It was rather small, and the rides looked rickety and old. There were mostly younger kids there, too.

"What, not amused by the amusement park, Case?" Derek walked back over to me after noticing that I hadn't moved.

I shook my head. "Nah."

"Yeah, it looks kind of lame," he said, and placed his hands on my waist, pulling me closer to him with an enticing look on his face. He grinned down at me. "How about we just hang out around here?"

I smiled up at him charmingly. "That might be more fun…"

"Oh, I can make sure it's definitely more fun," he promised playfully and kissed me.

I liked this whole new side of Derek. A lot. I moaned as his lips moved to the side and he began gently nibbling on my ear. Sam could never make my knees feel weak like they did now. I let my eyes flutter shut as Derek pushed me up against our family's minivan and moved his lips down my neck. He lifted me up slightly and I instantly wrapped my legs around him, letting him slide the strap of my tank-top down so he could kiss along the length of my shoulder.

"Ooh, Derek…" I gasped out in pleasure. I still couldn't believe that this was Derek that was making me feel this way. Stupid, annoying, stepbrother Derek.

I moaned as he slid his tongue into my mouth and kissed me deeply.

Definitely not stupid or annoying anymore.

Nope.
