#17 Sushi

Casey McDonald was excited for one of her first dates as a college student. A boy in her Literature class asked her out to dinner, and she was very excited. She decided on jeans, a red shirt, and a black cardigan. Derek was hanging out with some hockey friends and wouldn't be back at their apartment for a while.

Casey got dressed and waited on the couch in her living room where she was going to wait for John, her date, to arrive. John was supposed to be there at 8, currently it was 8:05 but Casey wasn't worried. Living with Derek, Edwin, and George all those years made Casey realize that boys aren't always the most punctual people.

By 8:30 Casey was a little annoyed, but also worried. She tried calling John multiple times but there was no answer. At 9, Casey gave up all hope, she went to change into some shorts and a sweatshirt. She then turned on the television, where her disappointment finally washed over her.

Derek came in the door at 9:30 and found Casey on the couch. He shrugged off his jacket and hung it up on the rack. "Hey how was your date? I thought you still would have been out." Derek said as he walked in. He sat down on the couch and then saw Casey's tear stained face. His tone immediately softened, "Case, what happened, what's wrong?" Casey sniffled and then replied, "He stood me up." She said looking down at her hands.

Derek's faced immediately hardened with anger. "What an asshole! How dare he stand you up." Casey then started crying again. Derek just tried to soothe her by rubbing her back. "Did you eat?" Derek asked quietly, and she shook her head. "I'm going to get you some food, and we can eat together okay?" She nodded her head in reply and he took off.

Twenty minutes later Derek walked back into the apartment with two boxes of food. He got two drinks and some silverware. He then handed Casey a box of sushi, her favorite food. As he handed her the food, Casey saw that his hands were all red and raw. "Derek what happened to your hands?" Casey asked, concerned. Derek chuckled to himself and rubbed the back of his neck, "Uhh I had a little run in with John from your lit class." He said uncertainly, not wanting to upset her.

The two ate in silence for a few minutes before she replied quietly, "Thanks Derek, for everything." The rest of the night the two enjoyed their sushi and watched movies together.
