this is my new idea for a story, i just really wanted to write my own version of a couple of scenes, probably wont be a long story but i hope you injoy it.
thank you for the support.
We ran along the side walk, passing oblivious bystanders to the world around us.
We kept on moving along the puddles in hopes that he would lose our scent and eventually get bored with Liam's little game, but I guess all I could do was hope.
I and Derek, after what felt like running for hours, stopped to catch our breath in an abandoned parking lot, just behind a row of shops that had closed for the night.
We both leaned against the brick wall behind us, trying to catch our breath.
"You wanted tips on self-defence?" Derek said, breathing hard.
I nodded.
"The first lesson our dad taught us? If we are up against a better fighter, the first chance you get, surprise him with your secret move…" he leaned down to my ear.
"Run like hell"
A laugh bubbled up, stopping my teeth from chattering.
I leaned against the wall, trying to get myself to relax as I caught my breath back.
"Look, well catch our breath, and then start moving again. I bet it wont take him long to figure out he lost and start to follow our trail"
I stood up straighter "im good, anytime you want to go-" a shadow moved above our heads and as I looked up I saw Liam jump down from the roof above us and land directly behind Derek. "Your boyfriend's not quite ready to leave yet cutie; he has some business to finish first"
Liam hit Derek with an upper cut, just as he turned his way, sending him reeling to the other side of the car park, towards the street lights. As soon as Derek was on the ground with blood dripping from him mouth. I saw red.
I grabbed for my knife in my back pocket. By the time I had it out; Derek had already hit Liam back and was know on top of him, punching him repeatedly, whilst also trying to block a few shots that were aimed his way.
As they rolled around trying to get a hold of each other, grunts and growls filed the air as more blood went flying from both attacker and victim. At one point Liam was able to grab a hold of Derek's throat and started to slowly twist it the wrong way, with the idea to kill him.
I knew that I couldn't just sit on the side lines anymore. As soon as I saw an opening I went for it. I ran towards Liam with a battle cry on my lips as I plunged the knife in to his thigh. For just a second everything froze, like time couldn't even believe that I had done that, just like I couldn't believe myself.
And then the night air was disturbed as a cry of pain shot passed his lips.
The hands that where still around Derek's throat, lifted up and threw him further away from us, as he hit the ground I herd a groan of pain before I saw slowly try to make it back to his feet.
Just showing how outmatched he was, as Derek always seemed to be indestructible, especially to me.
I turned my eyes back towards Liam, just in time to see him grab for my shoulders and pull me towards him.
For some reason I had the distinct impression that he was about to kiss me. Weird.
But no, instead his lips pulled back in a growl as I witnessed his teeth sharpen and start to glisten as venom dripped from his canines.
That was the only warning that I got as a second later, his teeth descended towards my neck and pierced my skin. The pain was unbearable, the smell of copper filled the air as warm liquid dripped down my neck and my scream filled the silent night.
It only lasted a second; he pulled his teeth out of my neck, and licked the wound making it become more painful. I couldn't stop screaming.
A growl sounded behind me just as I was flung through the air towards a brick wall.
Just my head hit the wall, I herd someone scream my name.
I must have blacked out for a, little while as the next thing I know, strong arms are wrapped around my waist and lifting me up of the ground.
"Chloe, Chloe can you hear me. Oh god, please be ok, are you ok?"
I lifted my head up towards Derek's face and gave a slight nod "yeah, im fine. We need to go" I looked passed his shoulder to see Liam on the ground, whimpering in pain every time he tried to move. "Yeah, come on. We need to get you to a bathroom, like now"
We both set out, walking back through the puddles and in a different direction to the star bucks café that we was heading to.
After about 10 minutes we finally made it to our destination. We walked through the doors and headed straight for the bathrooms, trying to draw as little attention as we could.
Derek grabbed hold of my arm and pulled me in to the men's bathroom and locked it behind us.
Before I could protest he hoisted me on to the counter and started to wash his hands.
The adrenalin in my system started to dull down allowing me to feel the full affect of the bite that I had received, the bite that was currently hidden by my jumper hood.
I rolled up my grey sleeves to wash my arms and kept my hood in place.
I didn't want Derek to see the bite as I didn't want him to worry about it; I wanted to be worried about the person that was actually in the fight.
I turned towards Derek.
"Ok, where are you hurt?" as I stretched my arms out towards him he pushed my hands away and gave me a scowl "im fine" and without saying another word, he grabbed a hold of my arms and started to rub my skin clean with a wet paper towel I didn't know he had.
He stood in front of my slightly between my legs as he concentrated on my arms.
I got a good look at his face that was full of worry and also anger.
"Next time, don't get involved" I looked up into his eyes in shock, what had I done now?
"Excuse me?" I asked.
"You know what I mean, stay out of my fights, before you get yourself killed for it"
He face was stony and distant. I could hear him murmuring angry curses under his breath while he scrubbed my arms even more with a clean paper towel, taking off the first layer of skin.
"Derek" he ignored me and carried on cleaning.
"Derek, look at me" he still did nothing.
My temper snapped.
"What did you expect me to do, just stand their whilst he killed you? Watched as he snapped you neck like it was a twig? Well im sorry im not some obedient dog that you can order to sit and roll over, but I am not gonna stand there whilst you get hurt. You hear me?"
The shock in his eyes showed how he didn't expect me to snap back, well neither did I to be honest.
I completely snapped at him without even stuttering once. I took his frozen state to my own advantage and hopped down off the counter and started to lift up his own shirt to check his injuries. This seemed to bring him out of his reverie as he quickly grabbed a hold of my wrists and gave me a weird look. "Oh don't worry, im not trying to get you naked, I just need to check the injuries of the guy who was actually in the fight" I turned away from him and grabbed a few paper towels, I went to the sink and soaked them in the water before turning back to Derek, my neck completely forgotten.
"Shirt off" he gave me one last withering look before lifting up his shirt off and placing it on the side of the counter.
His stomach was covered in bruising and blood splatters, like he had been kicked in the chest multiple times by Liam. Stepped forward and gently placed my fingers against his chest, watching as he winced slightly every time I would touch a certain spot over his ribs.
"You have at least two broken ribs and a lot of bruising on your chest so that will be sore for a while" I got the wet towel and started to gently rub it against his chest.
After I was done I threw the paper in the bin and grabbed a couple more, grabbed hold of his chin and started to wipe at his face, allowing me to see the damage under the blood and grime.
I could feel Derek's eyes burn in to me but I ignored him and carried on my exploration.
What he said next put me on edge.
"Chloe….why can I smell your blood?"
I chose to ignore him.
"You have blood in the corner of your eye, but that could just heal up so I won't worry too much about that-
"Chloe?"
"The bruising on your cheek doesn't look too bad and will go within a few days" I gave a short forced laugh" well, you're a werewolf so that might speed up the process a little"
At this point I started to feel a little sick, my stomach was churning and I could feel a thin layer of sweat cover my forehead.
I quickly turned away from him, pretending that I was getting another paper towel and kept on babbling when really I was making sure that he didn't see my face, in fear that he would see my pain.
"Chloe" his voice sounded more worried and sharp than before.
"Where did he hurt you?" I became light headed and my arms grew weak.
What was happening to me? I started to panic a little as I didn't even know what this would mean, being bitten by a werewolf. I didn't really trust the movies.
I was facing away from Derek, towards the wall with the paper towel dispenser, so I had to turn around.
Bad idea.
I felt my self start to fall as my knees just collapsed on me. I new something was seriously wrong.
Before I could hit the ground two strong arms grabbed hold of me and cradled me in to their chest. I herd my name being called a few times but it sounded far away, like I was being called from underwater.
Gentle fingers pressed against my cheek and brushed my hair away from my forehead.
"Come on Chloe. Look at me, open your eyes" I felt so tired suddenly but I pushed my eyes open searching for the green ones I knew so well.
As soon as I opened my eyes I could see the devastation in his as I felt him gently pull the side of my collar away from my neck, getting a good glance at my neck.
He gave a gasp before he stood up quickly with me still in his arms and placed me lying down across the counter. He grabbed the zipper of my jumper and pulled it down as he started to undress me to get a better look.
The pain around my neck slowly started to become unbearable as it pushed its way through to the front of my brain, making its self noticeable.
The last thing that I remember before everything went dark was Derek's voice as he gently started swiping away at my neck, cleaning it of any excess blood and grime,
"Oh god Chloe, I am so sorry…why didn't you just tell me? Im so sorry" I felt something soft brush against my forehead as I herd the panic rise in his voice.
"Why did it have to happen to you? Why you? You stupid girl"
