Dasey (Derek and Casey) Life With Derek

I'm Home.

I found Derek on the couch playing guitar and strumming to the song we sang from the high school talent show. I started to hum the song and soon he started to sing the lyrics to me.

"We said it was over and it was not over,I never want it to end".

"Nana na na yeah".

I sat beside him and he put down the guitar and gave me a quick hug but I clung to him,I needed to comfort of his scent because our family's faces popped into my mind seeing the girls get picked up by mother's and remembering what we've sacrificed. Derek could understand something was up with me.

"What's wrong Case?".

"Saw girls and their moms and...".

"I get you but we knew what we were doing risking everyone for this...selfish love".

"Did we?".

"Casey...".

"I don't know Derek,we have sliced off parts of ourselves....I feel like a huge half of me is missing. Don't you?".

"Of course I do but we didn't do anything wrong except admit what was ALWAYS there".

"It's not getting easier...".

"Did you think it would Case?".

"No but I hoped it would lessen over time".

"Time doesn't heal all wounds but I am here".

"I love you Derek Venturi".

"I love me to".

"DEREK!".

"Kidding,I love you Casey MacDonald".

Derek just cuddled with me as he strummed our song and I never noticed how it sounded like a break up song. It seemed to be just a one note kind of song but there was something there. Looking back it was intimate and preforming it together was a moment that we shared.

"How was work for you?".

"I got adjusted and luckily things went well so I'm happy".

"Anything noteworthy happen".

"Nope I was nervous if that counts".

"Haha so was I,wanna watch a movie?".

"Sure".

We looked through Netflix and picked a fun old movie that was dumb but funny. Derek looked surprised at my choice.

"White chicks?".

"What?".

"You continue to surprise me".

"Haha good".

I kissed him on the lips as we watched the Wayne brothers get themselves into a tricky situation. Derek puts his arm around me like we are in a theatre and I snuggle into him. But somewhere between Marlon going on a date with Terry Cruz's character I start to struggle to stay awake and start to doze off with my head bobbing and swaying.

"Tired case?".

"I am okay....super good".

"Hahaha okay you didn't have diner so are you hungry?".

"Not completely....Derek I love you".

"We established that".

That's when things went black and all I remember was Derek asking if I was alright. I didn't know how long I would end up sleeping but I never slept better. In my dreams our family's accepted us and we had a beautiful wedding on a cruise ship,yes I am a titanic fan but don't judge, we are so happy so why can't reality be as beautiful as dreams.
