Disclaimer: I do not own Life With Derek
A/N: I'm sure you don't really want to see ANOTHER ending to this story lol. But I make this specially for JennyKim319.
The next day after Lizzie and Edwin got home, the later went up to his room to do homework and the former went to the kitchen. Finally finding what she was looking for, Lizzie climbed the stairs and paused at Derek's door. Finally she lifted her hand and knocked,
"What?"
"I have something for you Derek."
"Go away."
"It's peanut butter and strawberry ice cream. I know it's yours and C-"
"I said go away!"
Lizzie took a deep breath to keep the tears in, "Fine! Be that way. I'm sure Casey's so proud of you!"
Dropping the food at his door, Lizzie ran to her room and slammed the door.
Lizzie heard Derek's door open and close a few minutes later. Gathering up her courage again she went out into the hallway and knocked on his door. She heard his guitar stop and him walk across the floor. A few seconds later he opened the door, and Lizzie almost gasped at the sight of him. His hair was now way past his shoulders, and he had a bit of facial hair.
"Derek" Lizzie whispered.
Derek sighed deeply, "Just...leave me alone Lizzie...Please."
He shut the door and left Lizzie standing all alone.
Lizzie lay in her bed, staring up at the ceiling. Derek's words playing over and over again in her head.
"Just leave me alone Lizzie."
Lizzie rolled over to her side, hot tears running down her face. It was so unfair. He acted like he was the only one who lost Casey. Like he was the only one who was hurting.
Lizzie choked back a sob. She was hurting too. More then anyone thought. Even Edwin didn't understand the thoughts that went through her head.
No matter what anyone said, or did. Lizzie felt herself falling father and father. A downward spiral that just wouldn't stop. When it first happened, she thought she would have Derek to helpt her through it. She never told anyone, but she looked up to him, and even loved her big brother. But he was never there. And now...
Slowly Lizzie pushed herself off her bed and opened her door.
The pain just wasn't worth it anymore.
It was nearly 3 in the morning when Derek opened his door. He looked out into the hallway to make sure it was clear before quitely making his way to the bathroom.
Swining the door open, he gasped and his face paled.
Lizzie lay on the floor, laying in a pool of blood.
"NO!!!"
Edwin jerked awake at the sound of Derek's scream. Knowing Derek never made a sound at night, Edwin quickly jumped out of his bed and hurried down the downstaris attic.
"Derek?" Edwin called "Are you okay?"
As he pased Lizzie room, Edwin was surprised to see she wasn't in there.
"What the hell is going on?"
Edwin looked towards the bathroom and saw Derek sitting on the floor.
"Derek?"
Edwin stopped short when he saw what laying in Derek's arms. Lizzie's, covered in blood and her face grey.
Derek was holding her and rocking back and forth, sobbing like a child.
"Wha-wha-..." Edwin couldn't seem to catch his breath.
Derek looked over his shoulder, his eyes bloodshot "Go call 911."
When Edwin didn't move, Derek shouted, "NOW!"
Edwin jumped then ran down the staris; screaming for George and Nora.
Derek buried his face in Lizzie's hair.
"I'm so sorry Lizzie" he whispered, "Oh God I am so sorry."
Derek stood next to two graves. Two yellow roses in his hand.
The yellow ones were their favorite.
A tear made it's way down his cheek.
He had killed them both.
Two of the most amazing women he had ever known, and grown to love. And he killed them.
Edwin came up and stood next to his brother, "Derek?"
Derek nodded his head slightly, to show he was listening.
"Are you..." Edwin took a deep breath, his eyes red, "Are you going to be okay?"
Derek crouched down and gently placed a rose on each grave. Straightening he turned to look at Edwin. His eyes dead.
"No"
