Premonition

Chapter three: Space Case, Dear Bear, and Hockey.

Casey huffed, clearly annoyed. She was waiting by Derek's car after school, for Derek and he hadn't even shown up yet! She was getting irritated by now, assuming that he was probably with his girlfriend Cassie. Casey didn't like that girl. There was something…off about her. She had a weird vibe about her.

The looks Cassie sometimes gave Derek crept her out. It was like…lust? She didn't know. But it freaked her out. Derek washer stepbrother, so it was normal to feel that way, to feel disgusted by that. However, it wasn't for the right reason.

Casey didn't know how to describe it. It was a weird feeling that she had been feeling towards Derek lately. She didn't know what it was. She had never felt it before. And it kind of…scared her. Sure Derek still annoyed her to the max, but it didn't mean the way it meant before- before this feeling came upon her, into her thoughts. Casey tried to ignore it, but it wasn't working.

One thing about Cassie was that she always seemed to have this certain, evil air about her. Weird thought, yes, but she did. Casey was always good at observing people. And that popped out at her, like a balloon.

"Yo, Space Case, wake up and get in the car," a voice snapped at Casey.

Casey jumped, and noticed Derek standing there with his arm around Cassie's waist. Casey wanted to shake her head in disgust but didn't.

She rolled her eyes and opened the back door, knowing Cassie would be sitting up front today.

Turning to him, she said, "Shut up Derek."

Derek smirked at her, "Someone's grouchy today."

In response, Casey shut the door in his face. She folded her arms and waited for the two lovebirdsto get in the car.

Once they did, they took off, radio blasting and Casey now getting a headache.

"Derek, turn it down!"

Looking in the rearview mirror, Derek smirked and just turned the radio louder. Casey could have sworn she heard Cassie giggling. She wanted to strangle her, oh and Derek too.

"DEREK!"

Derek looked up for a split second and then turned back to the road. That just angered Casey even more. She knew Derek had heard her, seeing as he looked up.

"DEREK!" Casey yelled louder.

Derek turned the radio down, immediately after Casey yelled his name and shouted back-smirking slightly, "WHAT?"

His voice sounded awkward against the silence. Cassie however, broke the silence by bursting out laughing, touching his shoulder lightly as he drove. He was grinning at her and for some reason that made Casey mad.

"Nothing," she finally said back, turning to the window, missing the weird look Derek was giving her.

Silence filtered into the car once more; the radio was finally turned down- thankfully, and Casey rested her head against the window, the cool glass decreasing her pain a little bit.

Soon, her eyelids were starting to droop, as Derek came close to Cassie's house. It wasn't long before she finally drifted off to sleep.

Derek parked right outside Cassie's house. Turning to her, he gave her a grin.

"See you tomorrow."

She smiled back and drew him into a kiss, "Kay, bye."

She got out of the car and waved. He waved back before driving away; missing the dirty look she was giving Casey, who was still sleeping in the back seat.

When Derek arrived back at the house, he contemplated on whether he should just leave Casey in the car, or take her inside so that he didn't get in trouble. Finally deciding that grounding didn't sound appealing at all, Derek reluctantly got out of the car and turned to Casey's door. Casey's face was still leaning against it.

Shaking his head at her, he opened the door, making Casey jolt awake immediately, nearly falling in the process.

"Derek!" she yelled angrily, trying to gather her self together.

He looked at her, clearly amused, "What? I was waking you up."

"Ugh!" Was her response back.

She grabbed her bag and headed towards the house, Derek following lazily behind her.

"Have a nice nap Space Case?"

Casey looked over her shoulder and gave him a dirty look before stomping inside, slamming the door in Derek's face.

Derek scowled and threw the door open, slamming it into the wall.

"Now was that reallynecessary?"

"Yes!" Casey yelled, stomping into the family room.

"Okay, seriously, not that I care or anything, but what the heck is your problem? You've been moody all day!"

Derek was following Casey, both not noticing Edwin and Lizzie upstairs, watching them with amused expressions, enjoying this immensely.

Casey hastily turned around; causing Derek to come to a halt- they were both so close to each other now that they could feel the beats of each other's heart.

Angrily, she yelled, "You are my problem!"

Derek rolled his eyes at her, "Yeah, yeah, what else is knew? I can't be the only reason can I?"

Casey shook her head, "No, your not. Just one of them."

Derek shrugged, deciding not to care anymore. It was Casey's life, not his.

"Okaaaay, now if you'll excuse me, I'ma go watch TV now. See ya Spacey."

Casey rolled her eyes at Derek; the whole 'Space Case' and Spacey thing was getting rather old.

"And quite calling me Space Case, Dear bear!" She spat out.

Derek stopped and turned back around, smirking. He folded his arms.

"You honestly think 'Dear Bear' affects me anymore? Pleaseee. Talk about old schoool."

Casey huffed, "Whatever. Just stop calling me it!"

Derek raised his eyebrow, "Why, does it bother you?"

He stepped closer to her, she noticed, "No! Now leave me alone, I have things to do," with that, she pushed him, though she didn't noticed one of Marti's toys lying on the ground by Derek's foot for he suddenly lost his footing.

He tried to grab onto Casey to stop himself, only to send her down with him. Together, they fell to the floor. Casey (screaming slightly) landing hard on Derek and Derek landing hard on the floor. His vision suddenly blurred and then went black. A few seconds later, it came back, only he was now seeing something totally different.

He was at a hockey stadium, full of people. He was looking as if from a bird's eye view and then as if it were a camera directing a movie, it switched scenes and his eyes landed on Casey -who was reading a book (typical) and his family sitting in the seventh row. They were shouting something, though Derek couldn't hear them. They looked excited and they were cheering. Then the scene changed again, this time it showed him the ice. He immediately recognized the players on the team. They were all racing towards the goal, one in the lead.

Derek couldn't see the one in the lead's face for the scene changed again and now he was looking at Cassie, who was a few rows above the Venturi-Macdonald family. She looked to be in some kind of trance, muttering something under her breath. Derek didn't know quite what to think of her…she looked kind of crazy. Derek shook his head, and suddenly as if the volume turned up on a radio, cheers and screams filled Derek's ears. But then the cheers drifted away and screams of terror filled the stadium.

Derek was forced back into reality with the sound of his name being called over and over; the voice sounded panicked? Derek's eyes snapped open and he stared into the concerned/worried face of Casey. He groaned and snapped his eyes shut. His head was pounding.

"Derek! Are you okay?" Casey's voice went through his mind.

Derek slowly opened his eyes again, and focused on Casey instead of the headache.

"Yeah. Just give me a minute. My head is killing me."

"Want some aspirin?"

"Sure."

"Be right back," Casey said, she gave Derek one last concerned look (which is rare) before going into the kitchen.

"Derek, you okay?"

Derek turned his head and looked at Edwin and Lizzie, both had seen what had happened.

"Uh, yeah."

Rubbing his head, he slowly got up and rested the palm of his hand against his forehead, which had started to pound a bit more.

Derek, for one, couldn't figure out why he was getting all of these headaches. It was ridiculous! It's not like he was stressed, so that wasn't it. Maybe it was the whole sticking to one girl thing…he didn't know but it was getting extremely annoying.

"Here you go Derek," Casey said, tossing Derek the pills and handing him the water.

"Thanks," Derek said, he swallowed the pills right when Nora and George came in.

"You okay honey?" Nora asked, concerned.

She put a hand on Derek's head and then took it away, seeing that he didn't have a fever.

"Yeah, I think I'm just overtired or something and the fall probably caused my headache."

"You sure Derek?" George asked.

"Yeah. I'm gonna go take a nap, get some rest before the game."

"You think you can still go? With that headache?" Nora asked.

"Yeah, I'll be uh, fine," Derek said, stumbling slightly as he headed to the stairs.

Seeing this, Nora turned to Casey and said, "Casey why don't you help Derek upstairs."

Casey normally would have argued. Though right now, her concern was showing for Derek. He never got headaches before, and he shouldn't have passed out when he fell. That wasn't right.

"Okay," she said and took long strides to get to Derek. She helped him up, and for once neither of them argued.

When they made it to his room, Derek turned to Casey, and attempted to smile, "Thanks."

Casey nodded, Derek walked into his room.

Just as he was about to close the door, she spoke up and said, "Derek you sure you're okay?"

Derek looked her straight in the eye and said, "Yeah."

He closed the door just as she smiled and turned to leave.

Derek went towards his bed and sat down. Glancing over at the clock, he saw that the game didn't start for a while. His headache was slowly starting to fade. By the time they left for the hockey game his headache was completely gone.

"Alright everyone, lets give them hell out there on that ice tonight," yelled the coach. He was in the middle of giving his pre-game inspirational speech. Everyone was pumped and chanting, everyone but Derek. His mind was wandering.

"So will Cassie be here?" Derek came out of space at the sound of Sam's voice.

"Yeah. Only in support of me though, she thinks hockey is violent, and well, she is anti-violence."

"You really plan on keeping her for a while, don't you?" Sam crossed his arms.

Derek shuddered at the thought of commitment, however, there was something about Cassie, she had him spell bound.

"Yeah man, we have something pretty good."

"Alright ladies," shouted the coach, "quite you're chatting! It's game time."

Derek was the first to head out; it was only right considering he was the star player. He looked around the stadium. The place was packed with a cheering audience. He was quickly able to spot out his family in the seventh row. They were cheering, and waving while Casey sat there reading her book. Derek turned to look for Cassie but then did a double take. Casey...family, seventh row, Casey was reading a book. He had some serious dejavu right now. But he couldn't quite put his finger on why.

Shaking his head, Derek went back to looking for Cassie. He looked around to see if she had already arrived. She hadn't.

"Yo, D! You all right?" Sam yelled over the crowd.

Derek turned to him and nodded, "Yeah, was looking for Cassie!"

"Is she here?"

Derek shook his head, feeling slightly disappointed that she wasn't here yet.

"No, must be running late."

Sam shrugged, just then the coach called for Derek to come forward and start the game. Derek skated up to him, determined.

It was game time.

The crowd watched eagerly as Derek raced towards the goal. He was skating along the side of the wall, occasionally bumping into it as he tried to skate faster, away from the other guy who was trying to desperately catch up with him.

The skater was a few sizes bigger then him. Derek motioned to move away from the wall, but the other skater was too quick. Next thing Derek new, he was being slammed into the wall. The pain immediately erupted through his entire body. He slid to the ground. The whistle blew, and everyone on the ice stopped moving. The audience watched, concern written in most of their faces. Some people skated over to him. He looked up at them and nodded that he was all right. His eyes drifted and he caught a blurry glimpse of Cassie in the stands. And then suddenly, he was seeing something completely different, however, his eyes were still open to those in the stadium.

A forest clouded his vision. It was nightfall and the wind was blowing fiercely against his skin. He shivered. It was freezing. And then suddenly, he heard a blood-curtailing scream.

Derek jolted awake. Someone was calling his name; his vision was still blurry. He shook his head and it became clear. He was now looking at the worried faces of his teammates.

"Dude, you all right? You looked like you were in some kind of trance!" Sam's voice reached his ears.

Derek turned to him, "Sorry I guess I blacked out for a second. I'm fine now though."

Coach put a hand on his shoulder, "You sure Derek? Do you think you can still play?"

Derek nodded, and tried standing up. The team took a few steps back and Derek smirked at them.

"Yeah I can! What are you all waiting for? Come on!" Then, as if nothing had ever happened, he skated out into the open and the crowd erupted into cheers.

The game was on.
