Chapter Three

An hour later the family was at the beach. It was 95 degrees out, so everyone was in the water. They had a water front camp site, to go swimming privitely, but Derek insisted they go to the beach. Manly, so he and Sam could check out the hot girls. Casey laid a poka dotted towel down, pulled off her shorts and shirt, and laid down. She was a wearing orange bikini with little care bears all over the place. She decided to change into a bikini...not for any perticular reason... except for the ONLY reason, SAM! Her and Sam had kissed, she knew he liked her. So giving him a little treat sounded about right. Sam sat in the sand next to her in the sand,stretching his legs out, and getting comfortble. He quickly looked at her bathing suit, but then went to her face, and flashed a smile. They knew they couldn't talk about the kiss, or actaully kisses, they shared earlier. Everyone was around.

"Casey? Your not swimming? Its so hot out here." Nora breathed as she wiped her forehead.

"I'm good for now mom." she smiled. Nora, George, Lizzy, and Edwin went into the water right away. Derek came now, a couple minutes after everyone else. He'd taken longer because on the walk to the beach, he'd seen a really hot girl working at the ice cream shop, and decided to stop by with Marty. Show the girl he had a cute little sister he was buying ice cream for.

"Derek got a phone numberrrrrrr!" Marty sang as she did a twirl.

"Oh really? Well I'm sure the ghonirra infected ice cream girl will love him." she gave a fake smile.

"Well Casey, if she has that, atleast I know she'll blow me." He gave a huge grin. He loved making Casey feel uncomfortable and defeated.

"Ew." was how she replied, and then closed her eyes.

"So, Sam. I got a number. Lets go find you some ladies." his shirt came off, along with his shoes.

"Nah. I just feel like sitting for while." he gazed off into the lake of people swimming around.

"What? I don't think so. We need to find you," Derek paused for a moment, looking off into the distance, down the beach, then finished his sentence,"a hot mama..." he was still starring.

"Are you okay?" Sam asked, knowing it would be something ridiculous.

"Yeah, yeah I'm great. Be right back buddy." Derek waved him off, and with out looking back, ran down the beach.

"I WANNA SWIM!" Marty yelled running into the water, where George was holding out his hands to get her. And then, they were alone. It was that easy. Casey and Sam were now with no annoying parents, siblings, or Derek's.

"Its hot huh?" Sam let out, starring into the sand, letting it sift through his fingers.

"Yeah." Casey put her hand up to shield her eyes from the sun. "But is that really what you want to talk about? The heat? The buring hotness?" she gave a small smirk.

"Ha. No. Not really." he looked over to her. "I mean, unless we talk about your hottness." he smirked, as Casey sat up.

"Or your hottness." she playfully said back.

"Or, how hot the making out was." a grin taking over his adorable face.

"Huh. That was pretty hot." they both smiled as their hands touched each other in the sand. "Oh. look at that. That girl actaully fell for Derek's sweet talk." she was looking over to where Derek and the 'hot mama' were talking in the water. The girl giggling, falling for his shit.

"Good. Maybe they'll go on a date or something later. Give us time to... hang out or whatever."

"Yeah. Hopefully." she smiled, and hold on to his hand under the small sand pile between them.

"Casey. I think your awesome," he said with a slight smile. "and I think... I mean... it'd be cool if me and you. You and I...were...ya know..." he looked to the small sand pile.

"A couple?" Casey said cooly, but bursting inside. He looked up at her.

"Yeah."

"Well yeah. Definitely." she almost kissed him, and he noticed and pulled away. "Oh. right."

"Yeah. Derek will... hate me. Not like I care about that. But I gotta tell him. He can't just see us kissing."

"Right... but um... maybe...we shouldn't tell him for a while. Be kind'a...a secret. Well, a secret from Derek. You know he'll be a pain in the ass."

"I know." he smiled, she smiled, and it was agreed. They were now boyfriend and girlfriend...secretly. Until the right time came to tell the public, or more important and nerve racking, Derek.

"I hate you." Derek announced, as he shot a basket. They were at the camp ground basketball court.

"Why now?" Sam got the ball and dribbled.

"I was with a hot girl all day. And you were...I dunno. What were you doing sitting and talking to a very unattractive, annoying girl all day?" he brought his shirt to his head to wipe away the continuous sweat beads.

"If you're talking about about Casey, then yeah. I was talking with her. It was cool." He took a shot and missed.

"Of course I'm talking about Casey. Didn't you hear the description?" he ran for the ball.

"She's okay. I mean, we talked about tv and shit."

"Okay-" Derek went infront of Sam, and they both stayed still. "Casey watches the god damn Discovery channel. What'd you talk about? War? Dying animals? Presidents? Fuck, your weird."

"No. She watches noraml stuff. We talked about the new Real World episode. MTV buddy." he took the ball from him. "And plus, haven't you ever heard that song by Bloodhound Gang?" Sam began to sing "You and me baby ain't nothing but mammals," Derek finished the next part, speaking, not using a tune. "So lets do it like they do on the Discovery Channel. Yeah I know it. And to think you just sang it, when talking about Casey. Are you Oh fuckin kay?"

"Whatever." Sam threw the ball and made a 3 pointer.

"I'm not letting you ruin this camping trip, by spending it with... her...or him... too hard to tell. But, I got a date tonight. With the hot hot hottie Isabelle." he smirked.

"Nice man." he gave him a high five.

"And, I have this gut feeling, well, more of a dick feeling, that she'll do alot of things with me." Derek grinned, he loved bragging to his best friend about the hot girls he can get with.

"Sweet." Sam smirked, feeling happy for Derek.

"Lets get back. I need to shower. Oh, and you are not leaving this trip, without getting to atleast 3rd base." Derek nudged him, and they walked back. As they walked, Sam thought about Casey. He did think she was awesome, and sweet, funny, kind, smart, hot, but, would she go to third base with him? He knew she wouldn't do that this week, plus, when would they get the time, but... how long would it take with her? Was she strickly kissing only? Could he feel her up ever? He wanted to find out...

A few hours later, Derek had left his friend with his family, telling Sam to forgive him for the torture. Sam was fine. Nora and Lizzy went to beach again. George and Edwin went the rec room. Marty was at the camping site, under Casey's supervision, and well, Sam's too. The three of them sat around the picnic table playing candy land. Marty begged them to play, and they gave in. It was better then constint whinning.

"I win! I win!" Marty chanted.

"Yes. You win. Again. I think thats enough candy land." Casey started putting the game back.

"I think its enough too." Sam agreed.

"Well. We can play truth or dare!" Marty gave them a pleading grin.

"Truth or dare? What?..." Casey rolled her eyes, Sam laughed.

"Yeah. Derek plays it. So I want to."

"No." Casey said.

"No, no. Wait. I want to." Sam smirked.

"You do?" Casey asked, confused, but saw his smirk.

"Yay!"

"Me first." he said to Marty. "I dare you Marty...to go in your tent and count to 500."

"Easy peasy..." she half whinned, by the easy dare, and ran for her tent.

"Ya know, that dare, it only lasts like 500 seconds. And she could hear and see us. So, it wasn't as smart as you think Sammy." she smirked.

"Have you seen her lately? She tired as hell. She'll be alseep in a minute. Laying in there, counting. You watch."

"I don't know...maybe." she smiled, thinking about how smart Sam was. Getting them time alone again. Around 356 Marty's voice started to fade. A few minutes later, after Casey and Sam stopped making eyes at each other, Casey looked in the tent to find Marty fast asleep.

"Alright Sam. Good plan." she smiled.

"I know." he returned the smile, and walked over to her and gave her a quick kiss.

"I want a better kiss then that." she playfully complained, and kissed him longer and harder.

"OooOoooOo. I like yours better." he said, and kissed her back, not so quick this time.

"Lets go in my tent. No one will even be back for an hour or so." she took hand. "Wanna?" she smiled.

"Oh yeah." they both grinned and entered her tent.
