Heaven Sent

Chapter 1

He climbed down from his jeep, grabbed his cell phone and locked the doors before turning to head towards the school. He couldn't believe that he and Scott were finally seniors.

He was walking down the hall when he heard his best friend, Scott McCall call out his name. "Stiles, this is our senior year man. How can you be late today of all days?" Scott asked.

"I had to stop and get gas or I wouldn't have made it at all." They were walking towards the gym for orientation when the twins walked up to them.

"Hello girls." Said Aiden. "What are y'all doing?"

"What does it look like you meathead? We're going to the gym for orientation. What do you want?"

"Guess who we saw on our way here." Ethan finally spoke up while he watched Danny from a far.

"Why would we care who you saw this morning?" Stiles asked.

"Because you have the hots for him punk." Ethan said before he headed over to talk to Danny.

"Is he serious Aiden?"

"Yeah, he is. We saw him at the four way stop just before you get to the school."

"I didn't think he was coming back to town." Stiles was thinking about the last time he had seen Derek Hale.

They stood facing each other in what used to be Derek's loft before he decided to sell it and leave town. "Why do you have to leave?" Stiles asked.

"Because there are too many memories here in Beacon Hills and I just can't live here when I know I can't have what I want."

Stiles knew that Derek was talking about him but he wanted to hear the words come from Derek's mouth so he forced the issue.

"And what do you want that you can't have Derek?" he asked while he walked towards Derek.

"You know what I want Stiles so why do you have to act like this?"

"Because I want to hear the words straight from you." Finally, Stiles was standing right in front of Derek. He could smell his unique scent and it turned him on.

"Fine. I have to leave because I want you and I know that I can't have you." Stiles smiled at Derek's frustration.

"Why can't you have me?"

"Because you're human and I'm a werewolf."

"So it's not because you're straight but because you're a werewolf?" Stiles could see the discomfort all over Derek's face.

"Hell yes! Now I have to go." And with that, Derek left everything behind as he ran away from Beacon Hills and Stiles.

"Earth to Stiles, come in Stiles." Stiles was brought back to the present by Scott. "What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing important."

"I think you were thinking about Derek Hale being back in town." Stiles turned to Aiden and wanted to slap the taste out of the hot stud's mouth.

"Why don't you mind your own business. Don't you have some unsuspecting female to flex in front of?"

"Don't bite my head off just because you have the hots for Derek and he won't give you the time of day." Before Stiles could deny any of what Aiden said, he was off looking for someone to flirt with.

Throughout the rest of the day, Stiles ignored the feelings he felt deep in his gut at the idea of Derek being back in town. Little did Aiden know, Derek did want to give him the time of day but he was just as afraid of them hooking up as Stiles was.

At the end of the day, Stiles headed out of the school without waiting for Scott. Instead, he headed straight for his jeep. When he was about ten feet from his jeep, he looked up and saw Derek leaning against the driver's side.

"What are you doing here?"

"I need to talk to you."

"Isn't that what I said when I came to the loft the night you left town? And what did you say to me?" Stiles refused to look at him because he was afraid Derek would be able to read his feelings all over his face.

"Stiles,"

"Don't Derek. I don't have time to talk to you. You wouldn't make time to talk to me three months ago so why would I make time to talk to you now. I'm finally a senior and once I graduate, I'm leaving this town for good." Stiles unlocked his jeep and started to get in when Derek grabbed him by the hand.

"Don't run away from me. I'm sorry for the way I treated you. I was scared Stiles."

Finally, Stiles turned around to face Derek. "And you don't think I'm scared of the feelings I have for you. Do you think I want to have to tell my dad that I'm gay and I'm falling for the bad boy in town? I'm terrified of my feelings but I was willing to throw caution to the wind and tell you how I felt. But what did you do? You ran away like the coward that you are. I don't need that in my life right now." Stiles shook Derek's hand off his arm and climbed into his jeep.

Stiles was standing at the stove cooking supper for him and his dad when the doorbell rang. "Dad, can you see who that is?" he called out to his dad who was sitting on the couch reading the paper.

"Sure."

"Thanks dad." Stiles was taking out the vegetarian lasagna when his dad and their company stepped into the kitchen. "Hello. Who are you?" Stiles asked the woman.

"My name is Eden Sharp. This is my daughter Erika." Stiles looked down at the little girl who was hiding in her mother's skirts. "I'm sorry. She's shy around strangers."

"That's okay. I understand. Would y'all like to stay for supper? It's only vegetarian lasagna and salad but there's plenty." Then he thought about his taste buds when he was Erika's age and thought about offering something she would like to eat. "And I can fix some chicken nuggets and French fries if somebody doesn't want lasagna." The moment she heard chicken nuggets, Erika's eyes lit up.

"Thank you for inviting us when you don't even know us."

"That's what my son does. He's kind to everybody. He gets that from his mother."

"Supper will be ready in about fifteen minutes." He went to the freezer, pulled out the nuggets and fries and started putting them in the oven. "So Ms. Sharp, what brings you here?" he asked as he pulled out a chair for her to sit down in.

"Please call me Eden. Do you think Erika can go into the living room with your dad so I can talk to you in private?"

"Sure." Stiles reached out for Erika to take his hand. After several hesitant seconds, she took his hand and together they walked into the living room. "Dad, do you think Erika can watch cartoons in here while her mom and I talk?"

"Sure. Have a seat little lady and I'll put it on whatever you want to watch." As soon as Erika was comfortable with his dad, Stiles joined Eden back in the kitchen.

"Okay, what did you want to talk to me about?" he asked as he poured him and Eden a glass of tea. "I hope tea is okay."

"It's fine. I was kind of dreading coming here when I learned about you but I knew that Erika had to meet you." Stiles was confused.

"Why does your daughter have to meet me?" he watched as Eden pulled an envelope out of her purse.

"This explains it all." She gave him the letter and he tore it open. Ten minutes later, he laid the letter on the table in disbelief.

"Are you kidding me? How do you know this is true? I don't understand." He was at a loss after reading the letter. "She can't be. I'm only eighteen and she's what, five?"

"She just turned five last month. Her birthday is July 5th. Isn't your birthday July 21st?"

"Yes, it is. Just because she was born around my birthday doesn't make it true."

"I know but having her biological mother say it is and have documentation to back it up makes it true."

"So there has been a DNA test done to prove that I'm her father?" he was so confused when Eden nodded. "How?"

"Apparently, her mom had some of your blood and as soon as Erika was born, she had her tested."

"Okay. If I'm her biological dad, who is her biological mom?" he finally asked because he didn't remember ever sleeping with a girl from school.

"Her name is Kate Argent." As soon as he heard the name of Erika's mom, he passed out and fell out of the chair.
