A/N: Okay so I would have had this in sooner but I had to go to the dentist and it seems I'm going to have to have the two wisdom teeth on the bottom surgically removed. Ouch. That really sounds painful. I hope when they do that they put me to sleep. I don't think I could go through that awake. I am a really big wimp. I'm not sure when it's going to take place but I'll keep you informed.

A/N 2: Special thanks to:

Idinakristinfan: I totally agree. The coolest kids are always Aunt Casey's. I know I love my Aunt's that are like Aunt Casey.

Javalover27: I love your ideas. Aww what am I saying I always love your ideas. I wouldn't be surprised if I use a few of them. I also love the names Ellie or Allie if I make it a girl. Oh and my aim is lildevilgrl8912. Im me if you have any ideas. That goes for all of you too. I don't mind if anyone IMs me randomly. Oh and I just may put her with Serena but I'll need you to IM to talk about that. 

RebelByrdie: You'll actually find out a little about it in this chapter. I'm just an evil writer I have to cause drama. And soon you're all gonna wanna kill Martin with a chain saw.

Red Lighting: I think I may go with Javalover27's idea and make it twins so one of them can be a girl.

Alexlivillia70: Thanks for all the name choices. I think my favorite girls name from your list is Alessa and my favorite boys name is Alejandro because they're original.

Color Esperanza: Well I could name Casey's so after Alex. Make it Alexander.

Omegia: I put Munch doing that. I just saw him doing that. I got the idea from when my Mom broke up with her prior boy friend. My neighbor offered to buy her a cake to celebrate. I just found that funny and had to use it. Anyway I love the names Serenity and Gavin. Oh you all are making it so hard for me to chose. I may just have to use them all. LOL. I really wish I could.

As always, Enjoy!

Chapter Three

No One

I am moving through the crowd

Trying to find myself

Feel like a guitar that's never played

Will someone strum away?

Casey walked through the mall the next day looking to find a store that would suit her son or daughter. She wanted only the best for her up coming baby. She needed to show it all the love that she knew Martin wouldn't. She watched as couples passed by with strollers. She saw their happy faces and wished that she could have found a man like that to be with instead of Martin. She had never imagined she would be having kids until she was married. She had never believed she would chose someone who would leave her at the first thing off their plan.

And I ask myself

Who do I wanna be?

Do I wanna throw away the key?

And invent a whole new me

And I tell myself

No one, no one

Don't wanna be

No one

But me

Casey knew who she was and wouldn't want to be anyone else. But the feeling that she wasn't good enough to raise this baby always was popping into her head. She was afraid that she would screw this kid up if she weren't with someone. But she remembered how she was with Serena. If she could make that child so happy even though she was not married couldn't she do the same for her own child? She knew she could, and she tried to tell herself that, but her rational side was always getting in the way of thinking.

You are moving through the crowd

Trying to find yourself

Feel like a doll left on a shelf

Will someone take you down?

When Martin left her it was as if she had been cast aside like a used doll. A toy a child no longer found interest in because they had had a birthday and had received far better toys than the ones the child had. Casey was the cast away toy that no one seemed to want. She wanted someone to pick her up off the dusty floor and prove that she was worthwhile. It was something she needed to know before she gave birth to her child. If she couldn't love herself how was she supposed to love her child? But she had already seen proof that her love for the baby growing inside of her was far greater than anything she had ever felt.

And I ask myself

Who do I wanna be?

Do I wanna throw away the key?

And invent a whole new me

And I tell myself

No one, no one

Don't wanna be

No one

But me

Casey decided that she needed to come to terms with the way her life was going to be soon before she really started getting out there in the world of dating. She didn't know what was going to happen when she put herself out there, but she knew nothing would until she came to terms with how she felt about herself and her pregnancy. She wouldn't allow herself to do anything until she had absolutely no doubts about becoming a Mother.

Your life plays out on the shadows of the wall

You turn on the light to erase it all

You wonder what it's like to not feel worthless

So open all the blinds and turn the curtains

Casey went back to her apartment after an hour of shopping. She had only bought a few pairs of pants and a few shirts that would go good for a boy and a girl. She tried to stick with the neutral colors. She still had no idea what the sex of the baby was and she didn't know if she would want to when the time came. But she knew that shopping experience had really opened her eyes to what lay ahead. She wasn't sure if she was ready yet, but she knew that she was coming to terms with it all. In time she would be able to turn to anyone and say in truth that she was going to be a great parent. She only hoped she could be as good of a mom as Alex and Olivia were to Serena.

We are moving through the crowd

A loud knock on her door brought her out of her deep thoughts. She padded across the living room and opened the front door with the chain still on it.

"Can I help you?" Casey asked the young boy standing on her doorstep.

"Are you Casey Novak?" the boy asked.

Casey nodded. The boy handed her the envelope and left before she could say anything. She took the large brown envelope and went over to the couch. She sat on her legs. She was sort of afraid to see what was inside. When she did she read through the papers carefully. What she found shocked her. She ran over to the phone nearly falling on her face when she leaped from the couch so fast. Olivia answered on the second ring.

"He's trying to take my baby."
