Derek's POV
I was still sitting on the couch when my dad entered the room. He seemed a little more calm than before.
"I've done a lot of thinking." He said. That was never a good thing. "And since you think that the rules don't apply to you while you live here, then you're moving out."
"What?" There was no way my dad just said he was kicking me out.
"You heard me. Nora and I have already decided it would be best." He seemed serious, but this had to be a joke.
"How am I suppose to pay for a place with the job I have?" I asked. I had used the last three months pay check for the trip with Casey.
"We will help you get started, but only for the first two moths." He explained.
"Casey isn't going to want to move though, she's going to throw a fit." I said.
"Casey isn't going." He told me with a straight face. He really had to be joking now.
"What, why?" I was so confused.
"Because she didn't do anything, and Nora doesn't want her to move out right before the baby is due."
"This is cruel." I said giving my best Casey death glare.
"Sure it is, but you have to learn your lesson somehow." He shrugged.
"Where will I live?" I wasn't moving out of a twenty mile radius, there was no way they could make me.
"We will look for apartments next weekend, but for now you need to start packing." He then left me alone.
I sighed heavily and headed upstairs. I didn't go to my room, instead I went next door to Casey's room. I had to tell her what happened. I knew she was mad at me for lying, but this was bad. No, it was more than bad, it was horrible.
"Come in." She said after I knocked on her door. I entered the room and sat beside her on the bed. "How bad is the punishment?" She asked without looking at me. I could tell she was pissed.
"Their kicking me out." I said in a soft voice.
"What? How can they do that to us?" Her eyes were huge with horror.
"Dad said I have to learn my lesson somehow." I told her the words my father had uttered just five minutes before.
Casey's POV
This was insane, they were kicking us out right before I was about to give birth. There were to many questions going off inside my head.
"where are we going to live? How are we going to support our daughter?" I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes.
"Casey," Derek began calmly. I wondered how he could keep it together, or did he even care? "you can't come."
"WHAT?" This made no since to me. "Why not?"
"Your mom doesn't want you to leave." He said dropping his head into his hands. "And I'm the one who screwed things up big time by deceiving them." It sounded like he was crying, but I had never heard him cry before. "I'm so sorry Casey, you deserve better than me.
"What do you mean I deserve better?" I asked.
"I mean that I'm a crappy boyfriend." He lifted his head up so I could see his face, he had tears running down his cheeks. This angered me, no body should ever make him cry.
"I will be right back." I said getting up. I made my way down the stairs and into the kitchen where my mother was sitting.
I just thought I would let you know I'm moving out with Derek." I said while crossing my arms over my chest.
"No you're not." She said in her 'motherly' voice.
"Yes. I. Am." There was no way she could tell me what to do at that moment.
"Casey, lets sit down and talk about this." She patted the stool next to her. "Like rational adults." Did she just call me an irrational teenager?
"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't move out with Derek." I ignored her offer.
"Because there is no way he could support both of you and a baby." She said in her usual calming voice.
"I can get a job!" I practically yelled. I had planned on getting one once the baby was born anyway.
"Who is going to watch the baby?" My mom asked with raised eyebrows.
"I thought you were going to keep her after school, and during school there is daycare." I explained.
"I can't do that Case, not if you move out." She was so calm about all of this. It was driving me mad.
"This isn't fair! Sure what Derek done was wrong, but you don't have to kick him out!' the hormones were rally kicking in.
"This is just to teach him a lesson, everything will be fine." It irked me at how calm she was.
"No it's not! Nothing is ever going to be fine! I'm going to be a teen mom and you're kicking my boyfriend out! If this is your definition of fine I sure would hate to see your version of hell!" I was yelling and tears were starting to come out.
"Oh Casey, I'm so sorry." She was still calm, what was in that tea she was drinking?
"Whatever." I left her and her stupid tea to go back to my boyfriend. I knew that somehow, someway, I was going to keep us together. No matter what it takes.
A/N: What do you think? Is there something in Nora's tea? What will Casey do, will she go to far?? Review!
