History (From Birth to High School Grad):To start telling the biography of Derek one would need to start first with his parents.
Sarah and Mike, the mother and father of Derek, were the IT couple at Pineview Ridge during their high school years. The captain of the football team and the head cheerleader. Prom King and Queen and the most popular kids in town. Yet, as a lot of kids their age, they were young, stupid, and careless. A few weeks after prom Sarah realized she was pregnant. Her parents were furious but did nothing to punish the girl. Mike also promised he would stick by her side forever and that a baby wouldn't change anything, and she believed him. How unfortunately naive.
Only a few days before the due date and Mike disappeared without a trace. Even the boys family and closest friends had no idea where he went other than a note that basically said screw everyone and that he was skipping town forever. To add onto Sarah's grief her mother passed away the day that Derek was born. How could someone be happy in these horrible circumstances? However, the moment she looked at the tiny bundle she only felt happiness. Sarah was overjoyed to have the baby in her arms.
The joy didn't last long and she knew it wouldn't. Her father was an extremely strict man. He told her she would work to get a place for her and her baby despite having the money and living space to support them. He would give them money anytime they ultimately needed it, but other than that all the man did was watch Derek while Sarah was working or taking classes.
Skip a few years to while Derek is in elementary school. He is a kind quiet sort. Helps his classmates and has a few friends. Then a specific kid moves into town. Starts bullying Derek calling him all sorts of things and pestering him. Derek took it and never responded. Until one day the boy attacked one of Derek's friends. Derek couldn't stand by and watch. He stood up to the bully and in the process got beat up for it. Then his 'friend' didn't even help him.
This basically broke Derek. He switched schools because his mother didn't want him to get hurt again. When he started at the new school he was different. No longer the sweet boy. Now, he despised anyone who looked down on others or had it in any sorts of the way easy. No one other than Sarah remembered the kind boy that Derek used to be.
Starting high school was basically the same deal. By this time he had his lackeys and easily became one of the top dogs of his grade. He was basically just a jerk and bully to anyone who didn't stand behind him. Being one of the best football players in the state didn't help much either. By his junior year, some considered him the most popular guy on campus, and he absolutely hated it.
Over the summer between his junior and senior year, something unexpected happened. Mike Harris had returned to town with two children tagging along. The story was he ran away with some college girl and was only now coming back because his wife died and he wanted to introduce his children to their family. Derek wanted nothing to the three and neither did Sarah really, but when Risteard suggested she try to reconnect since he was fairly well off and Mike asked her out she agreed. One thing led to another and Mike had Sarah move in with him. They tried to get Derek to move in as well but he refused to move opting to stay at the apartment he had called home for years. His mother was able to at least get Derek to let Mike pay for the apartment, but the teenager still hated the man.
It didn't take Derek long to realize that Mike was not as kind as he was pretending to be. Noticing the faint signs of his mother's diminishing physical strength and freedom. During his Senior year, all the stress caused Derek to somewhat reflect on who he was. He never wanted to be anything like Mike and felt that the path he was on was turning him into that man. At first, he started by trying to apologize to some of those he had terrorized in the school eventually even doing various favors for them. No one faulted him for trying, but he still hadn't 100% changed and was still aggressive and hot-headed letting his mean streak bleed through every now and then.
Reaching the end of his Senior year he has at least somewhat made up for a little bit of the trouble he caused to others. He also formed at least somewhat of a relationship with his two half-siblings only because of his mother. However, he still despises the man known as his father and it's likely that fact will never change.
