"Smerek, Smerek open the door right now!" Marti cried outside Derek's door.

Derek got up from his computer chair where he was just twirling around in his chair trying to clear out his mind. He opened the door to find Marti jumping up and down with a picture she had drew at kindergarten.

"Hey Smarti, what are you doing home so early" Derek said to his little sister, lifting her up in his arms.

"The school broke down!" Marti said cheerfully.

"It broke down? Don't you mean the lights went out?" Derek said sarcastically.

"Whatever, look at the picture I drew Smerek!" Marti said happily, waving the picture in Derek's face.

"Wow, who are the people in the picture?" Derek asked. Seeing a girl and a boy who where holding each hand's of a little girl who was in the middle and was swinging her. The boy and the girl were smiling at each other.

"That's you, that Casey and that's me" Marti said, pointing at each figure as she spoke proudly.

Derek looked at the picture in shock, he looked from the picture, to Marti and then back to the picture.

'Does Marti think of me and Casey as best friends?...Why do I even care shes just a little kid, she probably thinks even a dog and a fish could be best friends'

Derek shook his head.

"Uh, its nice Marti, why don't you go show someone else" Derek said putting her down.

"Ok Smerek, I'm going to show Casey" Marti said excitedly, skipping towards Casey's room.

Casey sat on her bed listening to 'A little too late' by Jojo. She felt tears rundown her face as she hugged her pillow tightly as she let the words absorb into her mind.

Come with me
stay the night
you say the words but boy it don't feel right
what do you expect me to say?
You know it's just too little too late
You take my hand and you say you've changed
but boy you know your begging don't fool me
because to you it's just a game
You know it's just too little too late

So let me on down
cause time has made me strong
I'm starting to move on
I'm gonna say this now
your chance has come and gone
and you know

It's just too little too late
a little too wrong
and I can't wait
boy you know all the right things to say
you know it's just too little too late
You say you dream of my face
but you don't like me
you just like the chase
to be real it doesn't matter anyways
You know it's just too little too late

yeah yeah it's just too little too late

I was young and in love
I gave you everything but it wasn't enough
and now you wanna communicate
You know it's just too little too late

Go find someone else
in letting you go I'm loving myself
you got a problem
but don't come asking me for help
Cause you know

It's just too little too late
a little too wrong
and I can't wait
boy you know all the right things to say
you know it's just too little too late
You say you dream of my face
but you don't like me
you just like the chase
to be real it doesn't matter anyways
You know it's just too little too late

I can love with all of my heart baby
I know I have so much to give(I have so much to give)
with a player like you I don't have a prayer
That's the way to live

Oooh no it's just too little too late yeah

'Damn you Derek, DAMN YOU!'

"Casey, Casey" Marti cried, banging on Casey's door. Casey quickly wiped away the tears and took off her ipod and went to go answer the door.

"Casey look what I drew!" Marti said with a huge smile on her face, handing Casey the paper.

"Wow its beautiful Marti, is this you, Lizzie and Edwin?" Casey said noticing the smile on the boy and the girl. It was as if the two shared a secret that no one knew.

"No, its me, you and Derek" Marti said.

"Oh…" Casey said staring at the picture.

The picture looked like it held so many thoughts and secrets. But it came from a 6 year old, who had no intentions of what those secrets were. The picture was just meant to be a drawing that everyone would be proud of her for.

"Uh did you show this to everyone else" Casey asked putting on the best smile she could to fool a 6 year old.

"No, I'm going to show Dad and Nora now, bye Casey" Marti said taking the picture back from Casey and skipping away down the stairs.

Casey's stomach felt squirmy and she didn't know why, she ran into the bathroom.

"Kids dinner!" Nora yelled from the kitchen.

Derek opened his door and went downstairs.

When he go there he saw Edwin on the couch still watching TV and Nora trying to get him to get up and sit at the dinning table.

"You can't get him to move like that, you have to do this…" Derek said smirking and punched Edwin in the left arm.

"Oww! Fine I'm going!" Edwin said rubbing the place where Derek had punched him and getting up.

"Well, thank you Derek" Nora said taking a quick glance at him and then went to the dinning table and took a seat.

Derek followed and sat in his usual spot between Edwin and Nora.

"Where's Casey" George asked noticing Casey's absence.

"I think she's still upstairs, I'll go get her" Nora said getting up from her seat.

Nobody else really noticed Casey's absence other than Lizzie of course.

"Do you guys really not care that you sister isn't here?" George asked his kids.

"Step" Derek said through a mouthful of spaghetti.

George gave Derek an annoyed look, but before he could say anything Nora had returned to her seat.

"She said she's not feeling well" Nora said.

"There problem solved" Edwin said before shoving spaghetti into his mouth.

….

Casey sat on her bed with her cell phone, the only present Derek had ever given her, and dialed in a number.

"Hi…I would like to make an appointment for tomorrow….11am…yeah that's fine…Casey Macdonald…Ok thank you, bye" with that Casey clicked the end button.

Casey put her cell phone on her night table and laid down on her bed, and cried herself to sleep.

Downstairs, Derek was watching a movie with Edwin, Lizzie and Marti. They were watching A Cinderella Story. Lizzie chose it since it was her turn to choose a movie.

They were at the part where a girl named Sam was on the internet talking to a guy name Austin who was the most popular guy in the whole school. They had met once at a Halloween party a couple days earlier. Though Sam was wearing a mask and was dressed like Cinderella, Austin wasn't able to tell that Cinderella was non other than diner girl Sam. Sam was easily able to see that prince charming was Austin. So right now they were talking to each other on the internet and Austin was trying to find out Sam's name. Sam was too scared to tell him because she was afraid that once he found out who she was, he wouldn't care for her anymore.

'Why the hell is Edwin enjoying this move? Its not his type…Well its not my type either…Urgh why is this movie bothering me soo much? Whatever, I think I'll go to bed early'

Derek tried getting up off the couch as slowly as possible. Lizzie was to attached to the movie to notice, Edwin was just staring at the screen, Derek figured he was staring at the girls in the movie. But of course Marti had her attention to everything in the room.

"Smerek, where are you going" Marti asked in an annoyed voice. Everyone turned their attention to Derek.

'Damn it'

"Uh I was just gonna go to bed early, this movie's boring" Derek said coolly.

"Ok Smerek, good night" Marti said standing up on the couch to give Derek a hug. Edwin and Lizzie both turned their attention back to the TV.

"Good night Smarti" Derek said returning the hug.

Derek went up the stairs and into his room. He closed the door behind him and went under the covers. Tomorrow was Saturday. It would be a perfect day to sleep in.

Casey woke up the next morning at her usual 9:00am. She went to the bathroom and took a nice warm bath to relax her. When she got out, she wrapped a towel around her body tightly and brushed her teeth. She then went into her room and put a pair of jeans and a black fitting tank top.

She went downstairs to get some breakfast. Her Mom was in the kitchen making scrambled eggs.

"Hey sweetheart, would you like some eggs?" Nora asked.

"No thanks Mom, I think I'm just going to have cereal. I'm going shopping with Emily soon" Casey lied. Grabbing a box of cereal, a bowl, a spoon and poured some milk into the bowl.

"Alright have fun" Nora said before leaving the kitchen to do her laundry.

Casey quickly ate her cereal. She put the dishes in the dishwasher and left the house.

"Smerek Smerek wake up!" Marti said, jumping on Derek's bed.

"Mmmmm" Derek mumbled, turning to face an over active Marti.

'God, how does she wake up so early'

"Hey Smarti" Derek said tiredly, tickling Marti.

"DERREEK!" Marti said through laughter.

Derek got up and guided Marti out of his room. He went into the bathroom and took a shower.

"Casey Macdonald" The doctor said.

"Yeah that's me" Casey said looking up from a magazine, and standing up.

"Finaly up Derek" Edwin said seeing Derek come into the kitchen.

"Yep, what do you expect, its Saturday, good old sleep in Saturdays" Derek said, taking a seat and shoving a mouth full of scrambled eggs into his mouth.

"Aww Derek that's disgusting" Lizzie said.

"Derek, how many times have I told you that you don't eat right from the spatula, theres other people living in this house now remember, show some respect" George said, handing Derek a spoon and a plate.

"Oh, right, sorry" Derek said carelessly. Taking the plate and spoon that were offered.

So, what are everyone's plans for the day? Seeing me and George have to work at the office today and Casey is out with Emily" Nora asked, taking her usual seat beside Derek.

"I'm going to Kayla's house" Lizzie said, finishing off the last of her eggs.

"Yeah, well, I'm going to Michael's house" Edwin said finishing off his eggs too.

"And you Derek?" Nora said.

"Meh, I think I'm just gonna stay home" Derek said through a mouthful of eggs.

Casey sat in the waiting room, she was flipping through a magazine carelessly. A little girl with brown hair had caught her attention. She was playing with a white stuffed bear and was pretending it was her baby.

The little girl's mother was reading a book and every now and then she would look up from her book and glance at her daughter with a smile.

"Casey Macdonald" The doctor said standing in front of Casey.

Casey quickly turned her attention to the doctor.

"I have some 'positive' news" The doctor said with a serious smile.
