I do not own life with Derek.

Derek turned to see Edwin and Lizzie standing in the doorway with their mouths open in shock. Smiling weakly Derek got off Casey and walked to his younger siblings. "What's up guys?" "What were you doing to my sister" When Casey heard Lizzie start screaming at Derek she threw on her shirt and shot off the bed. "Lizzie stop yelling. Where are mom and George?" "Outside with Marti. They wanted us to come get you, and check if you were getting along. Well I guess we can see you are." Lizzie muttered the last part bitterly. "Oh Lizzie. I was asleep. I always sleep in my bra when it's hot. Derek saw you guys coming so he came to wake me up. Sorry if you got the wrong impression.. I mean think about it Lizzie. Derek and me? How disgusting is that." "True. Plus your totally in love with Sam." Derek's head shot towards Casey and looked at her.

Casey grabbed Lizzie's hand and walked outside. "CASEY GET BACK IN HERE NOW!" the family sighed. As Casey walked back in she heard her mom say "George lets leave. We'll come back tomorrow. "Casey." Casey turned and saw Edwin and Lizzie standing there. "We know what you guys were doing" Edwin said. "it's wrong. If you don't stop I'll tell mom" Before Casey could reply Derek dragged her inside and slammed the door on their younger siblings. When he was sure they had left he pinned Casey to the door. "You're in love with Sam! My Sam?"

"I never said I was in love with him. Lizzie just thinks that. And if I was so in love with Sam I wouldn't have had sex you. Do you think I'm that big a slut?"

"Casey I don't think you're a slut. In fact I think you're the opposite. Casey…I …uh"

"You what?"

"I love you"

'Derek just said he loved me………so…I don't know if I love him…do you think about him more than Sam…yeah, but that's because I live with him…………..no…I think I love him………..tell him' Casey looked up and saw Derek looking at her anxiously. "Derek I love you too. I don't know how it happened but it did." "Are you serious?"

"Yeah. Were you?"

"Yeah. Are you going to break up with Sam?"

"Are we going to have a relationship?"

"Yeah I want everyone to know you're mine."

"There's just one problem"

"What's that?"

"Edwin and Lizzie are telling mom and George."

"What?"

"Yeah" just when Derek picked up the phone to call them they heard the van screech to a stop right out front. Derek watched as Nora and George ran out and into the RV.

"Casey! Derek! Stop whatever your doing." When they opened the door they were actually happy to see what they were doing. Casey was at the bathroom door and Derek was at the couch. They were screaming at each other, and didn't seem to notice that their parents had come back. "I hate you Derek."

"Yeah well I'm not much interested in you either."

"Well I don't care what you think of me."

"Yes you do. You do Care. Come on Case admit it. You want to know what I truly feel for you?" their parent held their breath. "You disgust me Casey your little good girl act. Your uncontrollable need to grub for grades. Case you could be popular, but no. to top it all off you're bringing your best friend on the down hill popularity bust too. Get a life case." With that said their parents left./ when he heard the van pull away he sighed and shot Casey a grin, but he stopped when he noticed the tears rolling down her face.

"Casey you can stop now."

"No. that's really how you feel isn't it. It didn't sound like you were acting. It sounded real."

"That's how I felt when ypu first moved in, but now I don't. I haven't felt that way in months." He went to pull Casey into a hug, but she pulled away. "Derek I lied. I don't love you. I love Sam. I was just trying to make the one month stay here easier. I'm sorry." She looked u and saw the wounded look on his face. She sobbed and ran into the bathroom. 'i'm so sorry Derek. I do love you, but I can't. I'm sorry. That argument was all too real for me. I'm so sorry. So sorry. I love you. I do. I really love you'

Derek sat on the couch in shock. 'she doesn't love me. She lied. I want to stop loving her, but something tells me to wait it out.' I want Casey. And what I want, I get. It's all just a matter of time.'

Nora looked at George and sighed. "Did you see the look on Casey's face? She looked so hurt. I think Derek really hurt her this time. Did you see her face? She was devastated."\

"Nora she'll be fine. Just let it go. We'll check on them tomorrow. Ok?"

"Ok"
