Chapter Six: Why?

Casey sat in the minivan, the tears still sliding down her cheek. The were only three miles away from her Aunt's home in Montreal, where they would be staying until school started. They would have to move back to her hometown to go to school. But the question was who would they move with?

Derek used his freehand to find on of Casey's free ones. He embraced it in his hand and squeezed, giving her the confront she needed. He knew that if Nora would do something along the lines of this Casey would be heart broken. She was her mother. He didn't know how one woman can be so cruel to her own daughter. It just wasn't down.

"Tell me you still love me.", Casey said, almost in a whisper.

"Casey McDonald, you are the love of my life. I would do anything for you. And if we were older I'd ask you to marry me right now.", Derek smiled as he glanced at Casey's face.

"Thank you Derek. I love you too.", she grinned. Even though they went through all these horrible events they still loved each other and were never leaving each other's side.

Meanwhile at the Venturi-McDonald residents there was a large meeting going on. Mostly about the broken window but almost all of it was about Casey and Derek.

"It's not done. George. They are step siblings.", Nora sighed.

"Nora, did you even ask Casey and Lizzie if they wanted a new family?", George asked sternly.

"Well, no but-", she started.

"And did you even think about the possibilities of Derek and Casey ending up together? They're two stunning young adults that always fight and bicker. What did you think would happen. The truth is they loved each other way before they even knew so it's only right that we except them.", he said as he looked his wife straight in the eye.

"I guess your right. When they call they them they can come back and stay together.", she sighed as she walked into the kitchen. Nora looked at the picture on the refrigerator of Casey when she was a young girl. Nora laughed quietly to herself. She didn't know why she wasn't happy for Casey and Derek. Maybe she was scared that she loved him so much that she'd forget about her.

"Nice job, Nora.", she sighed to herself. After her little get out the house event Casey couldn't stand to look at her.

George walked up the stairs. It was time to tell the younger children about their older siblings. He didn't want them to be scared of Casey and Derek when they walked in. He decided to start of with Lizzie. He knocked softly on her door as he waited for permission to enter.

"Come in!", Lizzie called. She looked up to see her step father entering her room.

"What's up?", she smiled as she sat up straight, giving George some room to sit.

"Hey Lizzie. Can I talk to you about something?", he smiled as he sat next to her.

"If it's about Casey and Derek I already know.", she added quickly, causing George's jaw to drop to the floor.

"W-w-w-what? How?", he stumbled.

"Well the way Casey always used to come in here and complain about Derek I figured out that she liked him.", she confessed.

George sighed as he got off the bed. "Okay wow, one down. Hope it's that easy with Edwin. Bye."

"Bye!", Lizzie called before she went back to practicing for her soccer game.

George sighed before knocking on his son's door. Edwin looked up to Derek for having so many girls. He had no idea on how he would react whenever he told him that Derek only wanted one.

"Hey dad.", Edwin called from his computer. He was playing a game of Babe Raider from his computer.

"Hey son, do you by any chances know about Casey and Derek?", he asked.

"Uh yea, Lizzie told me to be happy for them, so I'm all good.", Edwin shrugged.

George smiled as he clapped his hands together. This was going to be easier than he thought. He waved as he walked down the hall towards Marti's bedroom.

"Hey daddy.", she smiled as she moved her Barbie doll.

"Hey Marti, listen Smerek has a new girlfriend. His new girlfriend is Casey.", he smiled at his youngest child.

"Casey? Smerek and Casey sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-ING. First comes love then comes marriage, here comes Marti in the baby carriage.", she sung as she laughed and giggled. George leaned over and gave her a kiss on the forehead before walked out into the hallway. His whole family was happy for his to eldest children.

Casey hugged her Aunt as she walked inside her brick home. Aunt Fiona had a lovely home. It reminding Casey of her old home, before she moved into the Venturi's home. But right now anything would feel like a home.

"Casey, even more beautiful than I remembered and Derek, even more handsome.", she smiled as she hugged them once more. Casey smiled as she walked over to Derek.

"Thanks Aunt Fiona. You look very beautiful yourself. Umm can I take a shower?", Casey asked as she looked down at her soaked clothes.

"Sure you can use Vicki's clothes. You remember her room right?", Fiona answered.

"Yea, the first one on the right.", Casey called as she head off to the back hall. She walked into Vicki's purple room as she swept down into her clothes. Casey pulled out a pair of black shorts with the words Cutie on the back of them with a light blue t-shirt. She grabbed a pair of clean underwear as she jogged into the bathroom. She closed the door and locked it before she begin her shower.

"So Derek, how's your life been doing?", Fiona asked as she sat on the couch.

"Not so well, Mrs. Fiona. When Nora kicked Casey and me out it became a nightmare. Seeing Casey upset made me so frustrated.", he sighed.

"You really love her, don't you?", she smiled.

"More than anything in the world.", he confessed. Derek's eyes slowly found a shadow on the ground. His eyes traveled up the shadow to see Casey.

"Wow, Case. You look hot.", he smirked as he walked over to her. He begin placing kissing down her neck.

"Derek.", Casey giggled as she pushed him away. Fiona laughed as she left the room, giving the two some privacy.

Derek sat on the couch as he pulled Casey on his lap. He kissed each side of her mouth as he teased her. She grabbed his face and placed her lips onto his. Without even asking Derek's tongue found it's way inside of Casey's. Casey giggled as Derek's mouth moved down to her neck, gently sucking on it. His mouth moved down as he pushed her shirt up slightly as he kissed all over her stomach. He looked at Casey's face to see her laughing. He smirked as his hand slowly climbed up her shirt, but was stopped by her smooth hands.

"No.", she said sternly. He sighed as he embraced Casey into a hug. He felt her rest her head on his shoulder. Casey smirked as she nibbled on Derek's ear, causing his eyes to flutter close.

"Case.", he moaned.

"You like that Derek?", she laughed. Casey slowly climbed off of Derek.

"A lot.", he smirked. He cleared his throat to see Fiona entering the room.

"Hey you two. Your parents just called. They said that you can go back home and still be together.", she smiled happily.

Casey grinned as she faced Derek. "This is great!" Derek nodded as he hugged Casey.

"So shall we get going?", he asked. Casey nodded as she stood up.

"I'm going to return Vicki's clothes as soon as we come back.", Casey smiled.

"Oh don't worry about it. Vicki doesn't wear those anymore. Have fun.", she waved as Casey climbed into the minivan. She was going home with Derek. They could be together and hopefully stay together. Casey leaned over a gave Derek a quick peck on the lips before he pulled out of the driveway.
