I do not own Scott McCall, or any of the other characters taken from Teen Wolf. I also do not own the idea of a school of mutants. Everything else in this story including any original characters and the plot line all belong to me.
Lucy tilted her head appreciatively from her place in the Starbucks line. The cashier was a cute girl-an Asian with a constellation of freckles spread across her cheeks. 'Izzy' her name tag read.
Lucy wondered if she could slip her number to the cute cashier before her tutoring session with Belle. But she decided against it when she thought about the disappointed look she would get if she was late to tutoring again, and Belle could make you feel terrible when she was disappointed.
Lucy looked up and gave Izzy a dazzling smile, causing Izzy's cheeks to bloom bright red.
"Uh, 3.25$ is your change." Izzy stuttered out.
"Thanks, sweetie." Lucy replied, stretching out her hand to receive the money. Izzy blushed darker again, flooding Lucy's senses with a cinnamon feel.
Lucy moved to leave but turned around at last second to send the blushing cashier one last wry smile.
Belle tapped her foot and sighed. If Lucy was late again she was going to kill her. She loved the girl, but she wished she would focus more on her studies. Stiles looked up at the sound of Belle sighing again, her long brown hair was currently being wrapped and unwrapped from around her finger.
"You're too nice to her, y'know. She doesn't deserve it." Stiles said, giving Belle a look.
"Stop it! She's been my friend since forever. I'm not going to give up on her because she's a little discombobulated." Belle replied, giving Stiles a stern look. "And stop bad mouthing her to me. Just because she doesn't get along with you doesn't make her a bad person."
"Wha-I-Just because I don't get along with her?!" Stiles cried incredulously. "She barely gets along with most people!"
Belle was about to retort when Lucy herself walked in with two cups of coffee. The smile on her face dimmed at the muggy and dark aura of the room.
"Sorry... I'm late again, but I got you coffee-your favorite kind too!" Lucy sighed hopefully.
Belle narrowed her eyes at Lucy and sighed "Bribing me with coffee won't change your math grade."
Lucy flinched and sighed. "I know, but I did better this test than I did on the last one." She replied setting her backpack down.
"A 67 isn't much better than a 66, Lucy." Belle answered.
Stiles snickered, and Lucy shot him a glare shutting him up.
"I don't see why we have to take math anyways." Lucy sighed. "We're mutants. It's not like we'll get normal jobs anyways."
Belle gave Lucy a tired look "I've told you this a million times before, I don't control what we are required to learn. I just have to teach it to you."
"No, I actually agree with her for once." Stiles stated, making Lucy look over at him in shock.
"This is pointless. Why aren't we focusing more on our actual mutations?"
"Alright the both of you are too much for me. Both of you just sit down and do your math work." Belle said with her head in her hands.
Stiles shared a look with Lucy before picking his pencil back up and working on the assignment at hand.
Kate was sitting in the courtyard, outside of the castle the school was run in. Well, she was always angry but right now she was really angry. Those stupid girls had taken her stuff and hidden it around campus again. But she had to cool off if she didn't want things to heat up again. 'Screw those girls' Kate thought. They just wanted her to explode again so she would get in trouble. She wouldn't give them the satisfaction.
Kate took one last cooling breath before pushing up off the ground and entering the castle with a determined stride.
She was still so stuck seething in her own thoughts that she didn't notice the girl in front of her until it was too late. She had rammed right into her causing all of the books in her hand to scatter across the floor.
"Oh, crap. I'm really sorry." Kate grumbled in frustration.
The girl in front of her was oddly gorgeous-in an outer space kind of way. She had long black hair, and violet-blue eyes hidden behind her thick, coke bottle glasses.
"That's okay, I wasn't looking where I was going, I was, somewhere else. I tend to do that a lot, get a little lost..." The girl trailed off looking up at Kate with a lazy smile.
"Right...okay anyways, I'm Kate by the way. Have you happened to have seen any-" Kate hesitated before sighing and continuing. "Have you seen any articles of clothing around the campus lately? A couple of girls stole my clothes and hid them around the grounds."
"No, sorry. I think I would have remembered something like that." The girl admitted looking at Kate in pity. "Oh, and my name's Elena."
Kate sighed. "That's alright, thanks anyways."
"Well it was nice to meet you Kate, maybe I'll see you around later? But I'm missing my art class so I have to go." Elena said.
Kate smiled at the girl and waved, the girl was a little weird, but she seemed nice.
Elena acknowledged Kate one last time before she turned around, and much to Kate's surprise her books drifted off the ground and fell into place behind her. Following her down the hall, in the direction of her next class.
Elena walked into her art class twenty minutes late. No one even looked up as she entered. She figured they were all used to it by now. Elena let her stuff drift to the floor next to her friends Des and Isaac.
Isaac was a tall curly haired blonde who was currently trying, and failing to paint a tree. Des, the gorgeous brunette next to him had just dipped the end of her paintbrush in the paint and flicking it at the canvas.
"Wow you guys, I'm impressed! You're both such amazing artists." Elena proclaimed sarcastically.
Des looked over at Elena, who had sat down next to her, and gave her a playful glare. "I see you're on time as usual, Lena."
"I got lost again." Elena admitted, embarrassed.
"Again?! That's the third time this week, El." Isaac said, joining the conversation.
"I should hear paintbrushes, not mouths. One cannot paint fully and talk at the same time." Their teacher, Ms. Fern announced from the front of the classroom.
Elena smirked and her paintbrush picked itself up and started to paint by itself. Mixing purples and blues in swirls across the canvas.
"Look Ms. Fern, I'm doing both!' Elena called out.
The teacher looked over at her before sighing and grumbling to herself.
Elena grinned over at Des who shook her head.
"Have you guys seen the new kid yet?" Isaac inquired. "I've heard he's really cute."
"Isaac buddy, no matter how hard you try to distract us, we all know the only one you have eyes for is that empath Belle." Des deadpanned.
"What-no-I. I wasn't saying for me." Isaac babbled. "I was thinking one of you two might be interested."
"Good, or else I'll tell your girlfriend on you." Des teased.
"She's not my girlfriend!" Isaac exclaimed sullenly.
"But... you want her to be?" Elena questioned with a quirk of her eyebrow.
Isaac blushed even harder and started to shove all of his art supplies back into his backpack. "Whatever Elena, you're one to talk. You have a new obsession practically every week."
"At least I admit it." Elena defended.
The bell rang signaling the end of class, causing the three friends to hurriedly say goodbye and disperse.
Mollie smiled brightly at the new boy. It was Mollie's job to show him around the castle. She understood how frightening the school full of "special kids" could be to a new mutant.
"Right now most classes are done for the day, but I can show you to your dorm if you want? Your room is right across the hall from my friends Lydia and Kate." Mollie explained gently.
"Uh, yeah sure that would be nice." Scott, the anxious looking boy, replied.
Mollie smiled and led the way down the nearest hallway.
Scott was amazed when they passed by a window and the sunlight seemed to make Mollie glow. The sunshine was directly following her in a concentrated movement seeming to set her whole body ablaze.
Mollie glanced back at Scott to see him looking amazed. She giggled and said "Don't worry, it surprises everyone at first. It's part of my mutation, ya know? The whole sunlight thing?"
Scott didn't know but he nodded his head anyway.
Mollie stopped abruptly pulling Scott out of his thoughts. They had arrived at Scott's dorm. Mollie smiled broadly at Scott and twisted the doorknob, letting the door swing open to reveal a cozy looking room.
"Welcome to our school, Scott McCall."
