Chapter 4
Derek POV
The next few days passed by in a blur. Casey was slowly warming up to me again, which made me happy. On Thursday we were having a great time on the ride to school, talking, laughing, and enjoying each other's company, the air felt electric. When we got to school we both had things to do, so we went our separate was.
A few hours later I was on my way to her locker to see if she wanted to each lunch with me. She looked so beautiful with her brown hair straightened and a nice sweater on, but who am I kidding, she looks beautiful all the time. I'm close to her locker when a guy I've never seen before walks to her. I stop and watch them from afar. They start talking and I feel the jealousy boiling inside me. What is she laughing at? She should be laughing at my jokes! He then touches her arm, whispers something in her ear and walks off, leaving Casey blushing. I then book it to her locker. "Hey Case, wanna grab lunch?" I ask quickly. "Sure" she replies with a smile. As we sit down I am dying to ask her about that guy but I don't want to seem jealous (even though I am). "Who was that guy you were talking to?" I blurt out quickly. Ugh get it together Derek! "His name is Truman French. He's new." Casey answered simply. "Well what did he want? To join the keener club?" I tease trying to cover up just how curious I am. She rolls her eyes at my joke then replies, "he was just introducing himself." I then take a bite of my sandwich when she finished, "..and he asked me out for tomorrow night." I literally choked on my sandwich. When I finished coughing I replied, "You said no right?" I asked nervously. "No I said yes. He seems nice." And just like that I realized one thing- I had to fight for Casey.
Casey POV
I was really excited for my date with Truman, he was cute and seemed nice. I pushed my thoughts of Derek aside and thought of Truman. It was Friday and he was going to be here in an hour. He told me where we were going for dinner so I knew how to dress. I curled my hair into loose waves, and put on a lilac colored sweater-dress with black tights and chestnut boots. 50 minutes later I was finished getting ready and was headed downstairs to wait for him when Lizzie knocked at my door. "Hey, you look great Case! Are you excited for your date?" "Thanks Liz! I am excited, he seems like he could be a good guy." I said with a smile.
Derek POV
I was mindlessly flipping through tv channels, unable to do anything but think about Casey, my casey, on a date with another guy. a minute later the bell rang- Truman. I opened the door and welcomed him in. "Hi Truman, how are ya?" I said, shaking his hand quite hard. "Um good and you?" He replied, very unsure. "I'm just great, so what are you two doing tonight?" I asked. Truman just started answering when Casey came down the stairs, Both of us stopped and looked at her, she was absolutely stunning, and I desperately wanted to run up to her, grab her, kiss her, and never let her go. My thoughts were interrupted by Truman saying, "Wow Casey, you look hot!" he said seductively. Jealousy intensified on me by the way he was looking at her, and the way he was so sensual with her. I wanted to punch him and throw him right out of Canada. "Th-thanks Truman." Casey replied nervously. "Bye Derek see you tonight!" Casey replied, then Truman and her walked out the door.
I knew that the rest of the night was going to be me waiting for Casey, so I returned to my recliner and sat restlessly, full of jealousy and a longing for Casey.
