Disclaimer: I do not own Life with Derek

A/N I don't know if I mention that they are 18

Then the door opened Casey jumped of Derek's lap and went to the other side of the couch.

Chapter 4

Then Emily came through the door with boxes of something. They were pilled so high that she couldn't see over them. Casey was relieved in a way. She didn't want Emily to see them but she wanted to tell someone. And if Emily would have seen then Casey could tell her that she loved Derek.

Casey slapped Derek in the arm and told him to help her. He grabbed some, well all of the boxes Emily had. He put them down and said "Emily what the hell is in theses boxes?"

"Its stuff for the home coming dance that's coming up." Emily answered.

"Oh Emily I forgot that we were helping with the decorations." Casey said.

"Oh its ok we have 100 dollars for the decorations so that means we can go…"Casey interrupted her and said,

"SHOPPING." Derek walked into the kitchen to get a drink.

"Yeah so do you want to go today, well now?" Emily asked.

"Yeah." Casey replied.

"Oh crap, I left my purse next door I'll be right back." Emily said then she left and Casey went in to the kitchen and saw Derek standing by the window looking outside. Casey went behind him and hugged him. He turned and kissed her on her forehead. Casey asked "Are you ok that I'm leaving you here?"

"Yeah go have fun with Emily but by the time you come home our family will be back." Derek informed Casey.

"Well then we will have to have a signal so we can hang out later." She smiled at him and they kissed. They heard the front door and knew Emily was here so they pulled away. Casey went to the living room and said "Okay are you ready?"

"Yeah let's go." Emily replied.

"Umm hold on Em I'm going to get some water." Casey said.

"Okay, I'll be in the car." Emily said. Casey ran to the kitchen, kissed Derek and said "Hey can you make sure Sam is not at the mall?"

"Sure Casey." Derek said. She was about to walk away until he pulled her back, kissed her and whispered in her ear "You forgot your water."

"Oh yeah, thanks." Casey said. Then she walked outside and got in Emily's car and they were on the way to the mall.

At the Venturi/MacDonald House

After Casey left Derek went upstairs and called Sam. He was on his way to the mall he needs a new cord to charge his cell phone. Derek freaked and told him to pick him up because he needed a gift for his new girlfriend. Sam did and they were on their way to the mall.

In The Car with Derek and Sam

"Hey Derek I need your help with something"

"Sure Sam, what?" Derek asked.

"I love Casey and I need her back. So what can I do to get her back?" Sam asked.

"Sam I hate to say this but she is seeing someone" Derek replied.

"Yeah I know but come on you're the man how do I get her back?"

"I don't know. She is not like other girls. And she really loves her new boyfriend, Julien."

"Come on boyfriends never stopped you." Sam said with a little chuckle.

"That's true, but even you know what Derek wants Derek gets"

"Ha Ha Ha your real funny." Sam said. Then they got to the mall. They went straight to the gift shop.

In The Car with Casey and Emily

"So when are you going to tell me his name?" Emily asked.

"What whose name?" Casey asked a little confused.

"The guy that is making you so happy right now. You know the one you're thinking of right now." Emily replied.

"Well umm it's kind of complicated" Casey said.

"Okay well don't tell me his name, tell me about him." Emily said.

"Well okay, he's cute and nice and I've never felt this way about anyone before. He makes me smile when I want to cry. He tells me stuff that he would never tell anyone. He's my boyfriend but acts like my best friend, besides the making out part."

"Aww, Case I'm so happy for you now that you have, eh, him because now you can help me get my guy." Emily said with a cheerful voice.

"Okay well who is he?" Casey asked.

"Duh Case, it's Derek." Emily said.

"Oh right." Casey said 'shit she likes Derek, still' Casey thought in her head "What happened to umm…"

"Sheldon, we broke up because I still have feelings for Derek. It's not Sam is it?" Emily asked.

"No it's not Sam what do you like him?" Casey asked.

"Well if I can't have Derek then I want Sam." Emily said.

"Emily I think you should find someone new like the new guy on the hockey team…umm Bryan."

"Well he is hotter than Sam. Do you happen to have his number?" Emily asked.

"Yeah I do we studied together last week. It's in my computer so we'll get it when we get back to my house." Casey said sounding pleased at the fact she got Emily to forget about Derek, her boyfriend whom she loves. And Sam, her ex whom had beaten her. And might do the same to Emily if she starts dating him.

"Okay were here." Emily said. They walked in the mall and went to the decorations store. They got some and then went to the food court. Then Emily saw Derek and Sam and said, "Look my two favorite hotties. She got up and walked over to Derek and Sam.

Derek and Sam

They had gotten Sam's charger and they went to the jewelry store. Derek wanted to get something that said I love you, Casey but he couldn't with Sam here. So he told him to go by a new watch or something. He did and left. Derek found a locket and on the back would say Casey, I love always and forever with a heart next the words. He got a watch to cover up what he really got.

Then he and Sam went to the food court and then he saw Casey and Emily. Emily came running over. She distracted Sam long enough for Derek and Casey to sneak in to the movie theater next door. They watched the movie and Derek called Sam and told him he was going to be staying for a while longer. So since Casey and he didn't have cars they were stuck with walking home. They didn't mind because they held hands and when they got home they saw someone making out. It was SAM and EMILY.

They went passed quietly and went inside the house. Every one was home and they were watching a family movie. After the movie was over everyone went to bed. Casey got an i.m. from Hockeystar808. She didn't know who it was. The message said:

Hockeystar808: I see someone is still up I'll be there in 5 minutes.

Alleyewantishimmxxx: wait what who r u?

Hockeystar808 has signed off.

Casey thought that was scary so she shut down her computer and then laid in her bed. Then her door opened and she heard footsteps coming closer to her bed. Then he said "Casey it's me wake up"

"Oh my gosh. That was you on the computer?" Casey asked.

"Yeah." Derek said.

"You scared me."

"Oh sorry." Derek kissed her and then said "I have something for you." He pulled out the locket and she almost screamed. She opened it and there was a picture of her and him kissing. She started to cry. She thought the locket was the cutest thing ever.

"Derek it's…beautiful I love it."

"Good now look at the back."

She turned it over and it read: Casey,I love always and forever it had a little heart next to it. She loved it. Then Derek went back to his room and she was lying there holding the locket. She was happy for the first time in months and she wasn't scared anymore. She was a little mad that this weekend was over. But her new life stared tomorrow.

It was midnight Casey was in her bed and she heard that her window broke. Someone was breaking in. She didn't know who it was. She was scared out of her mind. She heard the person walk to her bed and she pretended she was asleep they walked over to her and put there hand over her mouth and she looked at them and realized it was…
