i slipped out of caseys arms, careful not to wake him up. he yawned and stretched.

"hey sam."

"oh casey im sorry i didnt mean to wake you up!"

"its fine." he smiled and pulled me back down to him. he pressed his lips to mine for a kiss and about a half hour later we finally pulled away and made our way downstairs. everyone else was already awake...including mark?

"whats he still doing here?" i whispered to casey, he shrugged. marissa walked over to us.

"hes still here because the repairman never came last night so he just spent the night in the guest room. and man, you guys sleep for a long time." she whispered, we both sorta blushed and she smirked knowingly. casey slid his arms around my waist from behind and rested chin on my head.

"are you guys hungry?" marissa asked.

"duh!" i exclaimed. casey ran his fingers through my hair. i took both his hands and pulled him towards the kitchen where i found a stack of chocolate chip pancakes, i grabbed 2 and put them on a plate with a touch of syrup. casey did the same and stood beside me from where i was sitting on the counter. everyone else went to take showers or get dressed. so mark, casey and i were left in the kitchen.

casey and i finished our pancakes and i slid off the counter and put my arms around his neck. his he rested his forhead on mine and kissed my nose lightly. i pushed up on my toes and kissed his lips, he pressed his lips harder to my kiss.

"sammy! casey! get a room!" i pulled away from the kiss and found my 3 best friends standing next to me with their hands on their hips. casey grabbed my hand and led me upstairs.

"ok. fine. we will get our own room!" casey exclaimed, he led me straight to my room where he pushed me down onto my back and lie on top of me. his phone buzzed, and he pulled out his cell phone. a funny look overtook his face.

"guess what. were going to egypt...with my parents...for...1 week."

"your kidding."

"nope. our plane leaves tomorrow at midnight, tomorrow. we need to leave now so that we can get packing." he kissed my lips lightly, "we'll save this for later i guess." i laughed as he pulled me up.

"hey marissa!" i called on our way downstairs,

"yeah sammy?"

"casey and i have to get going. apparently we're going to egypt with caseys parents for a week."

"you are! have fun!" mark appeared from behind marissa,

"you're leaving?" he sounded...sad... weird.

"yeah." i hugged my friends goodbye. casey whispered in my ear,

"you know, if we told her now, we could escape all of the screaming and squealing."

"hey thats not half bad an idea..." i said outloud.

"what isnt?" marissa asked.

"thats what im going to tell you. but as soon as i do, we have to leave...ok?"

"yes ok what is it?" i looked at casey,

"shes your best friend! dont look at me." i groaned. marissa grabbed my hand and pointed to my ring, uh oh. i thought.

"OMG OMG OMG SAMMY IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU!" she screamed jumping up and down squeezing me in a hug.

"marissa...have to...breathe.." she blushed and let go. "we have to go marissa ill call you later ok?"

"YES OK!" she continued her squealing and screaming and gave me a death-squeaze hug again. casey pried her off of me before she could suffocate me, and we started toward the door.

"are you sure you have to leave?" mark asked.

"um, yeah. why? whats it matter to you weather or not we stay?" i snapped. casey tugged on my arm towards the door and i followed along,

"ill see you later marissa!" i called as casey tugged me out the door and to the car, where he opened the car door for me. he drove us back, and when we got there anna and warren were standing in the lobby waiting for us.

"ah sammy casey!" warren exclaimed. "your back! finally." he muttered the 'finally' part. "this lady is crazy!" he whispered, but loud enough so that anna could hear. she wacked his shoulder and we laughed and walked upstairs to 'my' apartment. it was a mess. to think casey was horribly messy. i gasped,

"what happened?"

"that would be his fault." anna stated, "boys can be so messy." i walked around the apartment with casey. the whole thing looked like a tornado had came through.

"dont worry samantha, we'll clean it up before we leave."

"uh huh..." i whispered. casey laughed,

"whats so funny acosta? this isnt- wasnt your apartment!" i exclaimed, he laughed again and wrapped his arms around my waist from behind me,

"sheesh sammy, just chill ok? theyll clean it up. come on lets go pack," he tugged on my hand and led me to our apartment where we packed until midnight, when i fell asleep, the last think i remeber was casey picking me up off the ground where clothes surrounded me and lie me down in our bed.

the next morning when i woke up, casey was laying next to me, he looked exahusted. our room was clean from the clothes. he mustve stayed up to clean up the mess. our clothes were packed in 2 seperate suitcases. i lie back down next to casey and rested my head against his chest, and pulled the blankets back over us. there was a knock on the door. i sighed and stood to answer the door.

i opened it, and mark stood there holding my green sweatshirt. casey bought it for me, hed said it was perfect because it matched my eyes.

"what are you doing here?" i asked him.

"i came to give you your sweatshirt. you left it there, and since you guys helped me so much i promised marissa id come over and give it to you. he smiled and stepped closer. i stepped back and suddenly he lurched himself forward and kissed me. i pushed him away, grabbing my sweatshirt as i did.

"what are you doing?" i screeched, he started to protest but i beat him to it,

"you cant just do that! its...its...its just wrong!"

"sammy whats wrong?" casey appeared from the door to our room,

"i was just dropping off her sweatshirt because she forgot it at marissas house. i really must go now, so goodbye!" he smirked at me, and i could feel my blood boiling as casey lightly closed the door and yawned,

"sammy what happened? why are you so mad? all he did was drop off your sweatshirt...shouldnt you be grateful?" he asked.

"casey he- he- he kissed me!" i screamed. he sighed, and pulled me into his arms,

"ok ok. just relax ok? besides, its not like we'll ever see him again...so just relax... ok?" he soothed. i relaxed a little and my sweatshirt dropped out of my hand as tears poured out of my eyes. he picked me up and walked us to our room where he lie us back down and let me cry into his shirt.

"im sorry casey. i really didnt mean to scream and wake you up but... well you know...what time did you go to sleep last night anyway? you looked exahusted!" he shrugged,

"you were tired so i put you to sleep and i finished packing and cleaned up and went to sleep...took a few hours." he tried to stifle a yawn but failed, "i got a call last night...i have to go into work for a few hours ok?" i gave him a pleading look and he laughed, "its either i go in today, or i never go in again." he planted a kiss on my lips and walked to the bathroom to take a shower and get dressed.

so while he was gone at work, i double-checked our packing, went to work for a few hours and cleaned our apartment and anna and warrens (mine!) by the time i finished all of this, it was 10:00. we had to leave for the airport in a half hour. 5 minutes later, casey walked through the door.

"where have you been? we have to leave in 25 minutes!" i exclaimed.

"sorry. morgon was subing for the boss so he decided to give me a bunch of unnececisary tasks." he changed into a pair of jeans and a tight tshirt. then he grabbed my hand and one of the suitcases, while i grabbed the other and he walked us downstairs to wait for anna and warren. we were 15 minutes early, but we didnt care. we loaded the suitcases into caseys car and waited for his parents on his car.

"whatd you do today?" he asked me, breaking the silence,

"lets see...i double-checked that we packed everything... cleaned our apartment and the one that anna and warren are staying in...and i went into the office for a few hours... thats pretty much it. so pretty much not much."

"not much? what are you talking about? thats like, 3 times the amount of work i did!" he exclaimed. i shrugged, and earned myself a kiss, when he began to pull away, i pushed my arms around his waist and continued the kiss until someone cleared their throat, we pulled away to find anna and warren standing in front of us shaking their heads, we both blushed and packed their things too.

"i call driving." i told them,

"no way!" warren exclaimed, "i call it!"

"fine. whoever gets into the front seat first gets to drive. oh would ya look at that? im already in the drivers seat! pass over the keys acosta." casey sighed and handed them to me.

"what are you doing? why dont you fight for it?" warren exclaimed to his son, preparing to wack him in the head. i reached over and stopped him,

"he doesnt fight me because he knows its just bad news. oh, and anna gets the passenger seat." i added. the boys groaned as anna smiled in the passenger seat. we got to the airport in 10 minutes.

"who taught this girl to drive?" warren groaned,

"we think it might've been marissa." casey informed his dad. "you dont ever want to let marissa drive. its horrible!" he exclaimed.

"you know normal drivers take at least 45 minutes to get to the airport," warren opened the trunk of the car, "but you take 10 minutes." casey rolled his eyes,

"dad, sammy is most definatly not normal! you should know that by now."

"thanks...i think..."i said not sure weather it was a compliment or insult. we walked through the airport. finally, after we paused to get some ice cream for casey and warren (they insisted that theyd die of starvation) we sat down in the black leather seats. casey swung an arm around my shoulders, i melted into him and he gently stroked my hair. i reached over took his milkshake from his hand, and took a few sips. casey frowned and i tilted it towards him to offer him a sip. he shook his head and pushed it back towards me,

"you can finish it." i took another sip and curled up next to him.

"whens our plane leave?" i asked anna,

"45 minutes. thats what we get for letting you drive samantha."

"well is there anything to do? because 45 minutes is a long time when you just sit there the WHOLE ENTIRE TIME!" i exclaimed. they laughed,

"well if i had driven...we wouldve gotten here on time and not to early...and we wouldnt be sitting here." warren informed me. i reached over, and wacked him on the back of his head. he rubbed the back of his head,

"ow! what was that for?"

"for insulting my driving." so for the last 43 minurtes, we talked about stuff that made no sense...i think casey has been spending a bit too much time with billy pratt. finally, our plane was called. casey grabbed my hand and we handed our tickets to the lady who smiled at casey and ushered us on. i tsked and after glaring at the lady, i followed casey and his parents to our seats, where we sat down, and immeadiatly fell asleep.
