Hey Everyone! I'm back… remember me? Hopefully. Anyways, I decided to continue this fic, sorry for the long wait.
Disclaimer: If did own LWD, like I said before, these two would not be in the same family… but then again, where would the fun be in that?
Enjoy!
"Yeah, okay, yup, I understand. Bye." Casey hung up her cell phone. She looked out her window, when a tear escaped her eye.
Casey was brought out of her trance when she heard the familiar voice behind her.
"CASEY!" The girl threw her pillow at her. "You didn't wake me up! I wanted to say goodbye to you one last time!" She softened her face features.
Casey chuckled softly. "Sorry Vi." She walked toward her friend. "But what do you think of saying your final goodbye" The brunette put air quotes around the words 'final goodbye.' "At the airport?" She continued.
Vivian looked at her friend strangely. "You know I have an important term test today Case…. You also know I would LOVE to, but I can't miss this." Vivian grabbed Casey's hands in her own. "I thought Lizzie and Nora were going to drive you and say goodbye to you."
She couldn't hold it in anymore. Casey started to cry.
Vivian started to panic. "Casey, Case" She slapped her friend.
Casey's mouth was agape. She put her hand at her cheek. "What the hell was that for?" She giggled while trying to hit her back, but failing.
The red head had to calm down from laughing as well. "If you were just one mood and not switching all the time, I wouldn't have slapped you! Now tell me, what is wrong with you?" She was about to add a smug remark, but decided not to.
"Well, basically, my mom AND sister are on vacation and they couldn't get a flight out to here so they can't say goodbye to me, and I have no idea when I'll see them again, which also results in me not having a way to the airport." She said matter of factly and a little too fast.
Vivian's eyebrows scrunched. "Hmm." She had her thinking face on.
"Oh that helps a bunch Viv!" Casey stated sarcastically while rolling her eyes, smiling.
"Oh shut up butt face!"
Casey snorted. "Butt face?"
"You know I'm trying to stop swearing! Jeez, people these days…"
They both laughed again.
When calmed down from their laughter Casey spoke. "I really am going to miss you."
Vivian smiled sincerely and hugged her best friend. Vivian pulled back first. "We gotta stop with this mush, you're gonna make me cry." She said rubbing her finger under her eye.
"Now, you're gonna be late for your flight, you have to get going. Its not like Casey McDonald to be late, now is it?"
"Did you not just hear my whole story?" The blue eyes girl chuckled at her friend's stupidness.
"Hey!" The other girl pointed her finger at Casey. "For your information, I did. You just didn't let me finish!"
Casey held her hand up in defeat. "Okay, okay, by all means, finish."
Vivian got up, and went to her desk in our shared dorm. She opened the third drawer and rummaged through it, until she found a green box. She took it out for her friend to take it.
Casey looked up at her friend. "Uhh…. What's this Vi?" she said obviously confused.
"Just take it" Her friend urged her.
That's what she did. She took it. "Okay, whatever you say." She grabbed the box out her hand. When she opened it, she gasped.
"Vivian." She said in all seriousness. "I can't take this. I won't." She said sternly.
Vivian sighed. "Casey, please, just take it. For me. You need it, and you're my best friend." She gave a sad smile.
In front of them was a box full of cash. It must have been some of Vivian's savings. "This is YOUR money Vi, I can't take it."
"Pssh, when I become a millionaire, that'll be nothing" she tried joking to lighten the mood. "But really Case, take it, you need some spending money, and now you can use it to take a cab as well. Consider it a going away present."
Suddenly, Casey hugged her friend. "Thanks Vi, I love you, you know that." And, they decided that was the way they should say goodbye to each other.

Derek woke up to his phone ringing. He grunted and reached to his bed table to grab the phone. He looked at the screen: 23 missed calls and 7 texts. Before he could open even one, it started to ring again. SAM.
"What?" Derek said harshly.
"Whooaa there D, calm your ass down." His best friend said.
"Just tell me what you want, please." He said mockingly.
Sam decided he couldn't get his friend to get out of the mood he was in, so he went onto the reason on why he called. "Are you fudging ready now? Our flight is in an hour and a half, we were supposed to be there hours ago."
Derek's eyes widened. "Shit." He dropped his phone and rushed to his washroom. He took a quick shower and noticed he packed all his clothes in his suitcases. He hit the side of his head. He dressed in the same clothing, but he managed to meet his 2 friends at their meeting place.
"D, man, where the hell have you been? We're late! All thanks to you."
"Shut it Ralph, I'm here now, and that's what matters." Derek snapped. After a couple of seconds Derek faced his friend. "Crap, sorry Ralph, just not my day."
Ralph approached Derek and patted his back. "It's alright man."
Sam cut in. "I'm glad you guys are good, but how bajeezie are we going to make it to the airport?"
"No choice than to take a cab, Sammie. You boys got cash on you?" Derek said with his hand out. They all sighed and pulled out everything in their pockets.
x.x.x
"Over there! Hail it Derek!" Sam said pointing his finger toward the cab coming to them.
x.x.x
Casey let out her breath in relief. She waved her hand for the cab driver to stop.
x.x.x
"Thank YOU" Derek and the brunette said at the same time, opening the door of the cab. They turned to each other in surprise.
"Um, excuse me, but I got this cab first. Now, if you wouldn't mind, I'm late and need to get going." Her blue eyes were hard, but he didn't notice, since Casey didn't bother turning around.
Derek frowned. If she wasn't pissing him off, he would totally go for her, but considering he didn't even see her face, got him even more mad.
"Well, your highness, we are too, so just wait until there's another cab, kay?" He pushed her aside.
"Hey!" She was so close to hitting him when Sam cut in.
"D, let it go, we'll get another alright?" Derek shrugged off Sam's hand off his shoulder and backed away.
Casey smirked to herself and entered the cab, making sure they didn't see her face. When she was fully inside, another thought came running in her mind- the day she FIRST met the boy she made the promise to.
FLASHBACK
"Why hello gorgeous, how are you doing?" He winked at me smiling.
I laughed. "Is that your way of flirting, cause you, sir, are a sad, sad boy." I laughed again.
Surprisingly, he looked hurt. I felt bad. "Aww, I'm sorry, did I hurt your pretty boy feelings?" I said jokingly.
His mood seemed to change. "Oh, so you think I'm pretty huh?" he had a smirk on his face.
I couldn't help but smile.
"Eyy! I knew you had a beautiful smile." He said smiling.
I felt my cheeks redden, and I noticed he noticed, but thankful he didn't point it out.
"Turns out you're not that bad yourself." I said looking up at him in the place I was on the sand.
He shrugged. "Haven't seen all of me yet." He smiled and I giggled.
"So, what's your name?" He asked me.
I wanted to play games so I did. "My mom said not to talk to strangers, especially give them my name."
His eyes were wide and his mouth was agape. But, it vanished as quickly as it came. He got the game I was playing.
"Oh, I see. You're a goody goody. Well, turns out, I'm bad ass." He had his hand on his heart, pretending to sound convincing.
"Hahah, alright, sure. Let's go with that…" I rolled my eyes with a smile, and this time, he laughed.
"Since you won't tell me your name, I won't tell you mine."
"aww, that's too bad." I said sarcastically.
"pffft. You wish you knew this rockin' guys name." He pointed a finger at himself.
"Okay, fine, since you're decent" he said dramatically adding some humor, "I will give you a nickname that I'll call you from now on, until you're comfortable with telling me the real one. Deal?"
I shrugged, knowing there was no harm in it and shook his hand. "So, what you gonna call me. You know I'm the one and only awesome person right?"
"You're funny." He said unconvincing. But quickly continued. "Princess."
"What?" I asked astonished.
"You heard me, Princess."
"Why Princess?"
"I don't know, just feels right, you know?"
"Hm, okay, fine. I'm calling you choco. I beamed.
"What kind of name is THAT?" he replied.
"What kind of name is princess?"
"Touché, princess."
I smiled at my small victory.
"But why Choco?" He asked after a while.
"Your eyes." I said quietly. But yet he heard.

Eventually, Derek, Sam, and Ralph got a cab, and made it to the airport. They were relieved when they reach their destination. Just a couple more procedures and they would be living their dream.
x.x.x
Casey entered the doors of the big airport. Around her were millions of people. She smiled at the thought of finally being able to expand her education. She gave all the right things, and sat until she had to go through security. She pulled out her book, but was abruptly disturbed.
"Princess!" She heard behind her.
Casey's heart started to pound.
And…. FIN! Sorry again for the late update! But I made it pretty long to make up for it. Anyways, I want to apologize for the swearing, I don't usually do, and I don't like doing, but I had to get in character of Derek, plus they're college kids, so you know how they are LOL. And yup, hopefully that was a good ending for you guys! Let me know what you thought. The more reviews, the quicker I update.
Review? :D
