I Own Nothing
AN: This idea has been swarming in my head for two weeks now. Have give credit to TV Time for encouraging me to write it out. I tried to find one like it but haven't been able to. Please no flames for the idea. Takes place about year or so before the pack goes to Beacon Hills.
AN2: After who Deucalion was before he was blind and became again after he got his sight back is where I was coming from when writing this. The way he helped Scott in season 5 and 6 was great. I hated that he died in the series finale since he had said he wasn't worried about losing his sight again, it was his soul he didn't want to lose. Also thought Deucalion was good looking in season 3a premiere when was getting on elevator which is when thought of idea.
Title: I'm Saying Yes Now
Characters: Ethan/Deucalion, Aiden
Summary: Ethan just wants to celebrate his birthday with someone. That someone turned him down so he's sitting in a bar with his brother bored while Aiden's having fun. That is until that someone shows up to make it up to Ethan.
Chapter 1
Ethan was sitting on one of the stools at the bar that Aiden had dragged him to. They were seventeen and Aiden wanted to celebrate. Deucalion had told them to have fun, but don't get into too much trouble. It had been an okay year so far, even though he wasn't that happy about some things. He was just glad he wasn't stuck in some room barricade in with mountain ash. It was how he had celebrated his birthdays since he had been eleven before joining the alphas.
Aiden was dancing with some woman that looked about in her early thirties or late twenties. As long as his brother wasn't getting into trouble he was going to relax. The bar they were in so far didn't have anyone that was appealing to him. He'd known since he was twelve that he was gay. He had refused to hide it even though it might have saved him some grief in their last pack. He had Aiden to help him if he'd gotten into any problems.
The day that they had taken out their pack had felt wonderful. They had been monsters, torturing them every chance they had. He had always fought back so they had never taken what he knew the alpha had really wanted. He wouldn't be a warm body for the bastard and it had infuriated him. He had fought the order to lie there and take it. It had pissed him off every damn time and he'd tried fighting, but would always get beat down.
The idea of fucking him had left their alpha then, replaced with torturing him in other ways. The worst had been the time he had been buried alive. He'd come so close to death that night that he sometimes woke up thinking he was back there. Even though it had been three years and the sick freak was now dead. Some fears didn't die even when the one causing them did.
Ethan closed his eyes willing them not to shift at the anger he was feeling. He was still trying to control the hatred that he felt. He thought about the family that he had once, before they'd been murdered. It was probably stupid to think of them, but there were so many happy moments. Those memories kept him from losing it at times that the nightmares got the best of him at night.
Half the time he ended up in Aiden's bed because of them. Sometimes he just got up and watched TV or played online video games. The rest of the times he just went for runs and he ran until his lungs were burning from the pain. Once he had ran so far that it had taken him an hour to get back. There were also the nights he'd go to another's bed. He'd let the fear and anger be fucked from him. He was the one fucking some nights though needing that instead. The nights he needed so badly to have control.
He longed for the days that he was the ten year old celebrating his birthday with his family. Just being free in the back yard playing hide and seek with Aiden and their parents. His dad throwing the football to Aiden and him, while their mom made dinner. Going to the movies and some how pulling off that they weren't actual old enough to see the scary movie. Afterwards crawling into their parents' bed because they were scared, but claimed they just needed check on them. Aiden and he had even been in the boy scouts, something now he laughed at the idea. It had been wonderful though and having that made him long to have his own family. He just didn't think it would happen in this lifetime.

"You want something to drink?" Aiden asked coming up to the table putting two drinks down and two orders of fries. He knew they were his brother's favorite, he liked cheese and chili on them his self.
Ethan looked up not sure how long he had been lost in his memories if Aiden was here now. "Sure. What happened to the woman? Thought you'd take her to the bathroom or back room by now." he said taking the drink first washing the blood from his mouth. He had bitten down so hard on his inner jaw he'd drawn blood.
"Her fucking boyfriend showed up. I could have taken him easily, he's human," Aiden said glaring back at the couple on the dance floor. His eyes already shifted, but they changed back before anyone saw. "OW," Aiden about shouted when Ethan kicked him hard. "I said could have. You would have kicked my ass if I did it. Not to mention we promised to behave." he really hated following orders. He tried to fight them like Ethan did, but he still hadn't pulled it off.
"We have freedom to do what we want and go where we want to. Do you really want to fuck that up by picking a fight with a human just to get laid?" Ethan asked glaring at his twin. "So far they have been great to us. Not saying I agree with a lot of things we have to do, but we aren't locked in damn separate rooms with mountain ash. So behave, little brother," he finished holding Aiden's gaze until his brother looked down.
"Fine, whatever," Aiden said in a low voice, but he knew Ethan heard him. "Seen any guys that float your boat?" he asked changing the subject. He didn't want to make his brother unhappy tonight. It was his birthday, three hours it would be his own. "We could go to that gay club you mentioned was one town over," he offered.
"I'm not in the mood to find some stranger and fuck them tonight. I already had someone in mind. Got no chance in hell for that ever happening tonight," Ethan said taking some of the fries. He hadn't wanted to really go out tonight, but Aiden had and he couldn't let his brother go alone. It was their birthday after all and they spent them together. He'd been shot down cold by the one he'd really wanted. It sucked too because he hadn't to ask since the first time.
"Come on tell me who you want. I'll talk them into it, I've done it before." Aiden was looking around, but he didn't see anyone that even looked his brother's type. "You've seemed down all night even though you came here with me. We don't hide anything from each other," he knew exactly where Ethan went at night some times.
It wasn't hard to figure it out, plus he was a werewolf. He could hear and smell what was going on, but they never talked about it. Ethan wasn't hurt when he came back and his brother went there of his own free will. He wasn't forced into it so Aiden left it alone. If Ethan wasn't complaining he wasn't going to get involved.
"It's nobody in here and you know that. Go find some woman and get laid," Ethan knew that his brother knew.
He just didn't want to talk about it since there wasn't really anything to say. It wasn't like he went there every night. Yet, he went there more often these days than he had six months ago, a year ago. They had never said they were even together. He'd like to think maybe he had a chance. A year tonight, it was why being rejected had hurt so much. He should have just said fuck it and found someone.
He just had hoped he meant something even if the words were never said. He had wanted it to be more than a quick fuck. He tried not to let his emotions get involved. It had been the rules when it started, never get emotional attached. It was too late for that because he did care. It wasn't love, but it was the closest thing he knew to that kind.
"Don't forget a damn condom either," Ethan added after a minute. He had to stop feeling so down. It wasn't something he wanted to feel on his birthday.
"We can't get or give anything bro," Aiden grinned downing the rest of his drink. He was watching someone, but he wasn't sure if he was going over yet.
"You are the straight one remember, suit up or you aren't fucking. I don't need you getting somebody pregnant." Ethan knew Aiden's mind had already lost the blood if he was forgetting that part. He reached into his pocket before putting two on the table. "Go before I get tired of waiting."
"Thanks," Aiden smiled pocketing the condoms before going to the bar where the blonde was standing. He wasn't going to pass up a chance to have sex.

Ethan pulled his phone out bringing up one of the games he had on it. He didn't want to get bored and he knew that Aiden was going to be a while. He was about to start it when he got text from Ennis. He had become like an older brother because he was nothing like Kali was or even when Deucalion got pissed off.
Ennis was the only one that had actually said happy birthday to him. He'd even given them a cup cake ignoring Kali complaining about it being lame. They were seventeen year olds they didn't need something that was for a baby. It had been after that when Aiden asked if they could do what they wanted tonight. Deucalion hadn't objected, he'd just said do whatever and left.
He sent a text back to what bar they were at. He didn't know if Ennis would actually show up since they were lame as Kali said. He knew that Ennis and Kali were together, but he wondered how at times. They were the complete opposite of each other; then again, Ennis made Kali seem human at times.
"Hi, you seem lonely by yourself. You wouldn't be up for a dance would you?" Some guy asked that had walked up to the table. Ethan looked up not sure what to think. "Your brother said you'd say no, but I had to ask."
"Um," Ethan was trying to think if he wanted to or not. He was about to say yes when he picked up a scent. It was familiar, but it wasn't Aiden's. He knew exactly whose it was though, but when he looked passed the guy he didn't see anyone.
"Turn him down," a voice that only Ethan and any other werewolf in the place could hear said. He knew it was an order, but he didn't mind.
"I'm sorry, you're cute, but my brother was right," Ethan said, "I'm not in the mood to dance tonight," he gave the guy a smile before moving off the stool. He wasn't sure where the owner of the voice was at, but he was trying to pin point him.
"You find me you get what you really wanted," the voice said knowing that Ethan was looking for him.
Ethan took his phone out sending Aiden a text he'd be back in a few. He knew the voice was echoing, but he honed in his scenes finding the actual location. He walked to one of the side exits that led to the back alley. It was the door that Aiden had broken the lock on so they could get in. They hadn't wanted to go through the ID check at the door.
