a/n: Sorry guys i didn't really explain. When Casey heard pounding in his room she thought he was getting it on but it was weird to her. Derek was acually pleasing himself. Or at least was trying to. it sounded too weird to Casey becasue derek never really needs to do that because he has girls that would please him willingly. And she was wondering why she didn't hear a girl in there. And thats sort of the reason why he needed Casey. He knew it was sick but he just needed to see her and then he'd be able to please himself better. There were no other girls around. I hope I ended your confusion.

disclaimer: I don't own anything.


Chapter 2: Wait It can't be, is he really Hockey4life?

Casey woke up to a beautiful Saturday morning. She opened up her blinds welcoming the sun. She felt so great about her conversation. She went online again checking her email and saw a new email from Hockey4life. Blackcorset101. I had a really great conversation with you last night. I actually couldn't sleep after I was talking to you. I stayed up basically. I don't want to seem like some freak even though we just met but for some reason I feel like I no you already. So I decided to write you this email because I couldn't stop thinking. So hit me back when you get this.

-Hockey4life

Casey couldn't help but smile. She turned on her radio and started dancing, really getting into it. She didn't even hear Edwin calling her. He was calling her name 10 times until he decided to just walk in. And there he saw the hottest thing a 13 year old boy could see. Casey in her black corset dancing. She had a feeling that someone was watching and turned around to see Edwin with his jaw on the floor. Casey screamed too scared to move trying to cover herself with her hands. Derek had heard Casey screaming and rushed beside Edwin wondering what was going on until he saw Casey as well. Boy the Venturi brothers do have a lot in common because both their jaws were on the floor. Derek thought that Casey looked even better this morning than last night, well because he could actually see her. Lizzie saw what was going on and shook her head. She pushed Edwin and Derek out the way and went into Casey's room locking the door.

"Thank you so much Lizzie I was just freaked. I couldn't move. But once again you saved the day." Casey said hugging Lizzie.

"You know it's weird with you hugging me wearing that. So Paul still has you wearing it? Doesn't it seem weird to you?" Lizzie asked

"Yeah, but it helps sometimes. I mean after the break up with Sam I felt terrible you know that. And I really hadn't had a boyfriend since then, well except for Max." Casey said.

"What ever happened to you two?" Lizzie asked taking a seat at Casey's computer. She wasn't really listening to what Casey had to say, something had just caught her attention. An email from a Hockey4life. Where did she hear that email from? Its was so familiar.

"Well, Max and I are kinda still going out but not really. It's complicated. We had to take a break because the relationship was getting too intense for a week. I felt pressured. Not by him no way, just like we're moving too fast. And we both agreed and thought that we could get to know each other just a little bit more. So just in case we ever got to that big step in our relationship, it won't be weird. You know Liz?" Casey asked. She was changing out of her clothes she didn't care if Lizzie had seen her naked, they were family. She looked over at Liz who wasn't answering to see her, preoccupied in Casey's email.

"So Casey, whose hockey4life?" Lizzie asked in a mocking way.

Casey blushed and walked over to Lizzie. "Well, he's this guy that I just started talking to last night who is completely cool. He's into sports just like the other guys that I've liked but he's not weird like most of them. Or conceded. He seems smart." Casey said

"Right, well I guess you're gonna continue to talk to him right?" Lizzie asked?

"Well I guess so… I mean he seems great." Casey said.

"Casey you know what mom said about guys from the internet. They're perverts and I was in school and they had this assembly on teens online and I-"Lizzie was cut off.

"Lizzie you have nothing to worry about. You know who your sister is. A huge control freak, I'm not going to let some perverted old guy mess with me. I'm fine." Casey said assuring her younger sister.

"You know you're right, I shouldn't worry okay I completely trust you Case.' Lizzie said with relief.

"Good, now lets go downstairs and eat, I'm starving." Casey said on her way down with Lizzie.

When they got downstairs Nora wasn't there and neither was George. Its was just Marti, Derek and Edwin who were around the island eating cereal. Edwin looked up from his cereal smiling at Casey.

"You know Casey I don't know why you freaked out." Edwin said nudging Derek in the ribs.

"Well, because I didn't want anyone looking at me half naked!" Casey exclaimed.

"You let Lizzie come in the room with you! I was safely in the door frame that's not bad." Edwin said.

"Ed, there's a difference, Lizzie is family." Casey said not believing that Edwin could be so much like Derek.

"Well, Casey last time I checked, we are you're family." Derek stated. Casey shrugged it off and grabbed some cereal and sat there in a seat next to Derek smiling.

"What's got you all cheered up Spacey?" Derek asked.

"Casey's in love!" Marti shouted.

"So who's the unlucky guy?" Derek asked laughing at his joke.

"I don't know, she said.

"Wow, can you say slut?" He said slapping hands withEdwin.

"Oh yeah, well at least I'm not the sick perv who uses his sister to jerk off!" She yelled. Derek looked embarrassed and turned red.

"Derek you did that? That is soo gross!" Edwin said.

"What are you talking about Casey what…why…uhh…why would I do that I mean that's gross, Edwin upstairs." Derek grabbed Edwin and dragged him upstairs and closed his room door.

"What does jerk off mean?" Marti asked. Casey and Lizzie looked at Marti. What if Marti mentions that to George? She would be in deep trouble. NO, No, NO, Derek would be in trouble. He's the one that does it.

"Umm, Mari please don't say that or Derek will get in trouble. It's a really bad word." Casey said.

"But, Casey you're the one that said it." Marti stated.

"Yeah Marti, but Derek's the one that does it.

Marti took it into deep thought then galloped off like a pony. Casey sighed and then went back upstairs. It left Lizzie alone to do a little thinking with herself. She was becoming suspicious of this Hockey4life dude. Even though she promised her sister that she would trust her, she had to protect the one that she loved. She knew she heard that screen name from somewhere, just didn't' know where.

Upstairs Casey went online and found Hockey4life again. He was on. She sent him an IM asking what he was up to. He said nothing much, just hanging out in his room. Listening to A Static Lullaby. Derek was in his room listening to this weird song over and over and it was blasting. Casey practically knew the words from the song. There was one line that stuck out to her that she thought was cool. "And with the night pressing on, she weakens behind his eyes, she yearns for him inside her collapsing by the bedside". Yeah it was a heavy metal song but she started falling for it. It was deep a song.

Blackcorset101: I can't get this song out of my head, but I don't know who it's by or what the name of the song is. It goes. "And with the night pressing on, she weakens behind his eyes, she years for him inside her collapsing by the bedside."

Hockey4life: That's A Static Lullaby the song is called Eagar Cannibals. That's the song I'm listening to.

The world went black and white to her. She slowly looked at the wall that was shared with Derek's. Could it be? Could the sweet guy be Derek Venturi…her step brother? She was pissed. The guy kept sending IMs asking if she's okay why isn't she answering back but Casey just sat there. She tried to go in her mind. It can't be Derek, that's soo gross. She signed off and turned off the computer. Just then she heard the song come off but still heard a guitar part. Casey got up and went into Derek's room to see if he was on the computer. When she saw him he was on his bed playing the guitar.

"So you were playing the guitar part for Eagar Cannibals this whole time?" Casey asked.

"I don't talk to people who can't keep their promises Spacey." Derek said not even looking up at Casey. He was still playing and doing a great job at it. He almost nailed the guitar solo.

"I'm sorry Derek, I was just pissed because you're an ass! And what else would I think. You were in your room thumping around and then drag me in, look me over then push me out again. And then you went back to the thumping around. " Casey exclaimed.

"Wow you really think that I'm that a perv? You're the sick freak that actually thought that I was doing that. And that's who I am, Derek Venturi the ass I get it. You act like I never heard that before. Now be gone I have stuff to do." Derek said looking back at his guitar. Casey left and went into her room. She was so relieved that it wasn't Derek. If she had caught him on the computer she would have torn him to shreds. She needed a break all this stress was killing her. She decided to call Emily and go to another party. It was weird though. When hockey4life described his sister it was Casey on the inside, she did actually sneak out a couple of times. But while watching Life With Jared, Monica's character described Casey if someone was watching her. No on really knows who she is. It was time to do a little changing. She didn't want to be misread. If she were to ever meet Hockey4life, she would want him to see her as who she was, not the stuck up princess who she was pretending to be. I mean she really isn't a bad person. She just thought that she had to change when she moved in with the Venturi family last year. She wanted to be different and accepted. Little did she know that now a days, people accept slackers, not nerds. How did Casey end up being like Hockey4life's sister? I guess it's something to think about while at Emily's house. She went down stairs and put on her coat about to leave when Lizzie came in through the kitchen.

"Casey now I know whose screen name that is. I knew that I heard it from somewhere but then I remembered!" Lizzie shouted.

Casey turned around. "I really don't care anymore I think it's cool that it's a mystery to me." She was on her way out when Lizzie shouted the name and Casey closed the door. She stopped right as she was leaving the first step. Wait…did Lizzie say Edwin? Casey walked back in the house slamming the door.

"What!?!" Casey yelled.
