CHAPTER 1. Get back

An Alpha. That was all required to survive in a town like that. It had been months since Ethan decided to disappear, and let things go easier. Stepping out of Scott McCall, aka The New Beacon Hills' Alpha, had been a good call...but just for weeks.

His open hands shoke of rage, and he got even more furious. Why was he mad? Aiden wasn't really worried about his moods...even after they found Danny with that guy in the school's boiler room. The surprise hadn't been what could be said nice, and neither was a good experience for the wall. His fists were trying to pierce two tons of pure brick, and the building was dealing with his anger. It was stupid, though. He ought to know if they were kind of dating, so in a weak moment, he agreed with his evil twin to get back in high school. And he flew.

Being an Alpha had been great, but now he knew something was coming. There was a threaten in every shatter of the trees along Danny's street, and, of course, he thought, on all the people's street, it wasn't like he was thinking of...him.

That was the part that pissed him off. Power was over love, and he had been taught that since he discovered his inner wolf, but why did he wanted to become an Alpha so badly, and why IN that moment? Was that a werewolf feeling? Or being just an Omega made him go so nuts, knowing that, if something occurred to Danny, he wouldn't be as powerful as one of his could? Again, that name. Ugh. He hated being reminded that he hadn't called what once had been his boyfriend, and now had just became a stranger...Ethan didn't even remember the first time he knew he had been his boyfriend.

"What are you doing here?" as clumsy as someone could be, the roof felt quite slippery. There was a sound, and he knew he had fallen from a second floor. Danny got out of his bedroom, and hold onto the window frame. Crawling back to him again with a simple jump, he smiled. He didn't know why, but he had. Vanity. Oh yeah, that could turn Danny easily on, although he wasn't showing any kind of expressions. He was wearing some jeans, a simple yellow T-shirt, and his always faceless smile.

"I was passing through your str..." Danny knew him better than that.

"What are you really doing here Ethan?" His name. Letting the window guy see his

sharpened and white teeth when he smiled to him. There was no glowing in Danny's dark eyes. Bad sign. He should retire, but the fact was he didn't want to.

"I saw you" maybe his face was poker, but his flushing wouldn't go unnoticed.

"Yeah. And I saw you" he was fighting back. Not a good sign for Danny. Ethan kinda liked those games they used to play when they were together. Danny had first acted disinterested, but it was just a matter of time that he would finally fall into his arms. He still reminded the first time...

"And you came here to give me moral advice on safe sex in high school?" Ethan's smile shifted. "We're not together, okay." it shouldn't have felt that way though. Perhaps a confirmation before wouldn't have hurt him everywhere and anywhere at the same time. But Danny wasn't fully sure about his words, and Ethan recognized that, insecurity in him wasn't a good thing. He wasn't telling the truth.

"I know that right" he insinuated, refering to the boiler room scene.

"Then, goodbye Ethan." he got into his bedroom again, but, with Ethan's presence still untouched on the roof, he wouldn't.

"Why are you doing this?" the question got out with no permission. He regretted it. It would have been better to step away, just to look stronger in front of him. But there was something, something holding him right there, only metres away from Danny. He belonged there, and he was being anchored to that boy. Was it a good thing...now that everything seemed that it was over?

"You didn't call me for two weeks! Guess that's a break-up call, isn't it?" he said ironically. Ethan would have been pissed off if that conversation had occurred someday before, but not that day. Not with those feelings surrounding, and creating lumps in his throat. Something would go on that night.

"Can you at least promise me something? Shut down all your windows." with that, he finally got out of his sight, without seeing his expression. For the first time in days, he felt it again: Danny's eyes were glowing, really glowing. He cares. And his heart jumped again for Ethan.
