#28 One Night

Casey McDonald-Venturi was cleaning and organizing her house one day when something caught her eye. It was a photo album, and once Casey picked it up she realized that it was a scrapbook from when she was in school.

She brought the scrapbook with her and plopped down on the couch. As she flipped through the pages, nostalgia and memories hit her full force. Pictures of her and Lizzie, Emily, the family, graduation, then her college years. She finally saw the first picture Derek and her had taken as a couple, it was at the end of freshman year party, but the two had been involved for some time before then. Casey then started to think about their first night together…

"Are you sure you don't want to go to the Frat party with us?" Sadie, Casey's roommate asked. Casey shook her head, and replied, "No, I'm okay. Thanks for asking though, and have fun!" She said trying to look cheerful. Sadie and Casey's other friends gave her one last look before heading out the door. Casey loved her friends; she just wasn't in the mood to party. Casey was really homesick and just wanted to see her family.

Casey decided to put on some comfortable clothes so she put on leggings, a sweatshirt, and let her hair out loose from the braid it was in. She then decided to just watch a movie in peace.

On the other side of campus Derek was at the same Frat party that Casey's friends were at. Derek was hanging with his hockey buds and a gorgeous group of girls. Derek usually lived for these parties but tonight Derek didn't really feel there, he just wanted to be at home.

After and hour or so, Derek decided to leave and head back to his dorm. On his way back he decided to head to the café for something to drink and eat. At the same time Casey was on her way to the café just to get out for a while. The two both made it to the café at the same time, and for once Casey was actually grateful to see Derek, She was so homesick that any reminder of home gave her just the slightest bit of comfort.

Derek held the door open and gestured for her to go in first. "Thanks Derek." Casey said quietly, and Derek just nodded. "What are you doing out Spacey, I figured you would have been doing next week's work tonight." He said sarcastically. Casey rolled her eyes and ignored him. The two were the only ones in the café and when Casey went to pay for her order, Derek stopped her, "I'll pay." He said, handing money over to the barista for both of their orders. Casey was stunned, she ha no idea who this guy was. "You wanna walk with me?" Derek asked, and Casey just nodded.

The night was a very nice one, warm and comfortable. The two walked in silence for a few minutes before Derek finally spoke up. "So why are you all alone tonight? I mean I know you're a keener but I've seen you with people I can assume are your friends." Casey sighed and looked down, "They all went to that Sigma Pi Fraternity Party, and I guess I just wasn't really in the mood to party." She said somewhat sadly. "What's wrong?" Derek asked concerned. "Just homesick." Casey replied simply before asking, "What about you? You live for parties, why aren't you there hanging out with girls?" Derek replied, "I just didn't feel like it tonight. Do you wanna hang in my dorm and play some Babe Raider? My roommate isn't going to be home tonight." "Sure." Casey replied.

Casey shuddered excitedly, remembering very well what had happened next between the two.

The two played Babe Raider for a while, when they realized the time; 1 A.M. Casey stood up and said, "It's late, I don't want to make you stay up. I should go." She said, walking to the door. Derek stood up quickly and replied, "You don't have to go." Casey turned around to him and he was bashfully looking at the floor.

"What would happen if I stayed?" Casey asked quietly after a few moments. Derek shifted his weight on his feet and replied, "I don't know, we could do anything, we have the whole room to ourselves." Casey blushed and stepped closer towards him, and she grabbed his shoulders and pulled him into a deep, in which Derek kissed back, equally as deep. They deepened the kiss and Derek pulled her onto the bed.

Derek broke away for a minute and asked, "Are you sure?" Casey nodded quickly, and Derek grinned kissing her again. The two stood up to undress. Casey quickly pulled off her sweatshirt and leggings, leaving her exposed in a red bra and matching panties. Derek's eyes widened, as he looked her up and down, her body was perfect. Derek then unzipped his jeans and unbuttoned his shirt, his newly gained abs coming into Casey's view for the first time. She was impressed with his body and suddenly felt super self conscious.

Derek then inched closer to her, and started kissing her again. They then moved to the bed, never breaking the kiss. They got under the covers and got comfortable with each other. Derek slowly rocked with Casey, kissing her face all over. He then pressed kisses to her neck and collarbone, and she moaned happily.

Casey played with his hair, while pressing gentle kisses on and behind his ears in a way that drove Derek wild.

Once they were done, the two just laid together in silence, Derek with his arms wrapped protectively around Casey who was snuggled up to him.

In the morning the two woke up at the same time, and Derek just smiled and whispered, "Gosh you're beautiful." Casey blushed and smiled, then kissed is nose in reply.

The two spent many more nights, and days eventually, like this. Both of them fell in love with each other, and Derek eventually asked her out on a first official date, though both considered their café meet and walk to be their first date. The two quickly became public and spent a great deal of time together.

After college they moved in together, and a year later got married.

It was now ten years later, and Casey still fell in love with him more and more everyday. He was still that boy who bought her coffee all those years ago, and it would stay that way forever.

Casey's thoughts were then broke by the sound of the front door opening and closing. Derek soon found Casey on the couch, and his face still lit up the way it did years ago when he first fell in love with her. "Hello love, what are you looking at?" He asked as he sat down right beside her, pressing a kiss to her cheek. "Just looking at this scrapbook from our school years." She replied, then pointed to the picture she had been staring at, "Do you remember that?" She asked. "Sure do," Derek replied, pulling Casey onto his lap, "Our first picture together out as an official couple." Casey's face lit up lovingly, "Do you remember that first night?" She asked softly. "I could never forget it. Best night of my life." Derek said, and the two kissed. "In fact, I remember it so well that I could recreate it if you wanted." He said suggestively and Casey nodded.

In one swift move, Derek picked her up bridal style and carried a giggling Casey to their bedroom to recreate what was the best moment in both of their lives.
