**Hey guys! Here's season two. I figured I should keep writing. Derek and Adaline never officially hooked up and got to be together in the first season. So, be prepared for a little more romance and drama. And, don't mind the Time line.. It's not really going with Season two all too much.

*I do not own Teen Wolf. I do however, own my OC's. Enjoy and as always, please review. I love reading what you have to say. =D Thank you!

Chapter 1:

Sunset.

*Adaline's POV*

I raised my camera to my eye and held my breath as I took a picture of a butterfly on a branch. I felt the sunlight on my skin as the wind blew and held my face to the sun. The air was different here. Much cleaner than Beacon Hills, and far less drama. You're probably wondering what happened right? To make a long story short, I fell in love, and couldn't handle it. So I moved away and left my family behind. I thought, that maybe if he loved me or cared about me in any way, that he'd stop me. Derek let me walk out the front door and never followed.

I felt this pain in my chest as I thought about him. The Derek I loved, and the one that let me leave were two different people. He had changed when he killed his uncle. I saw it instantly. I couldn't let my heart go through that. Not with the mental state I'm in. I sighed and began walking up the path to my home. My shabby little rented apartment in Ga. It was far enough from Derek, and close to my parents old home. I needed the time away. I needed this.

Upon walking in, I looked at the boxes and letter that hung on the fridge.

Addie!

I miss you terribly. School sucks. Anthony won't let me date. Scott is going through hell with Allison and Stiles is more annoying than ever. I wish you would come and visit. Derek is busy with his new pack. I'm sure he wouldn't come near here. None of us have really seen or kept in touch with him. So please, see me soon.

Love always.

Lana Boo.

I packed the rest of my things away and sighed. I guess I'd be going back. Something I didn't want to do, but couldn't avoid. After procrastinating for a few days, I sent my things off, and made the long drive back to Beacon Hills. When I crossed the county border, I felt the change. Things felt darker and smelled different. There were definitely a new pack of wolves running a mess here. And, something different. I couldn't quite place what.

"ADDIE! YOU CAME BACK!" I was tackled to the ground by my sister and we were a heap of giggles. "I did it for you Lana. It's only been a few months. 3? Right?" Anthony laughed and I felt as he grabbed us both and lifted us to our feet. "It's been half a year Addie." Elliot nodded and hugged me tightly. "Far too long. We're a pack. Remember that." I nodded and moved what had arrived to my old room.

It smelled like him. I hadn't been in here since I left, but I remembered what he smelled like. I felt as Lana wrapped her arms around my shoulders. "He doesn't stay at the Hale house anymore. New hunters have taken it over. He, trains in a warehouse. He didn't want to stay here." I nodded in understanding and began to put away my clothes. "Figures. He got what he wanted. I never have to see him again." I shot her a smile and tried to hide that I really didn't want to be here. "He trains them in the warehouse they kept you in."

I hid my shock and stared at my clothes. "It's secluded enough. I don't blame him." I grabbed my camera and took a candid of her. "You're back to your old ways." I smiled for her benefit and moved to my bed. "Fill me in on everything that's happened here?" Lana nodded and began to chatter away. I loved how she was so focused on filling me in, than trying to decipher how I was feeling. And as much as I tried to keep up, my thoughts were wondering.

When night fell, I felt like running off. Everyone in my house slept, while I was seated in my window, letting the breeze carry my mind to other places. I couldn't stand it. I jumped down and began running as soon as I felt the grass between my toes. I'd run until I grew tired. At least that was the plan. It didn't turn out that way. I ran until I came to a familiar building.

*Derek's POV*

Cinnamon and honeysuckle. I haven't smelt that scent in months. I was alone in the warehouse when the breeze came through an open window. Walking out, I saw her. Adaline stood in front of the building, out of breath and staring at me. It was pitch black outside, but that didn't matter. I could see her perfect form in the available light. My eyes trailed from her bare feet, to her smooth legs. She wore the smallest shorts and the tightest tank top that let me see every curve of her body. Her hair had grown longer, dyed with turquoise this time, instead of lavender. Those black orbs stared at me, innocently, spilling over with tears.

"You never stopped me. You just let me go. Like I didn't matter." Her voice was soft, and much sweeter than I remembered. She brought her hands to her face to wipe away her tears. "How did you find me?" I wanted to take her into my arms, but I knew this dance we had. "I followed your scent. It's everywhere here." She remembered how I smelled? Adaline's sad eyes looked at me and I remembered how she told her sister I was lonely. I could never admit to her that she was right. I was lonely. I needed someone. Now I want to be alone.

"Come inside." She nodded and followed me in. I seated her where I slept and noticed that her eyes never stopped following me. "Why didn't you stop me Derek?" I brushed the hair from her face and pulled her into my arms. "After everything that happened, after killing my uncle, after seeing you so shaken and more broken that before, I thought it was best for you. To get out of here. To be away from all the sadness." Adaline's arms went around me and she shook her head. "I wanted you to stop me." She took a deep breath and held me tighter. "I wanted you to tell me it was ok to stay."

I laid my head on top of hers and sat there silently. "It wasn't ok for you Adaline." We sat there for what seemed like hours. Adaline's heart was beating fast against my chest, and it made me nervous. When she pulled away, her face said it all. "I have to go back. I don't want them to worry about me. Again." She gave me this, sad laugh that didn't suit her. "Take care of yourself Derek. And that new pack. Especially the girl." I stood up and tried to reach out for her as she backed away. "I have to go. Good bye Derek." The way she said goodbye ripped at my heart, worse than watching her run away. I couldn't move my feet to go after her, and I couldn't move my lips to speak and stop her. She always did this to me. Left me dumbfounded as to what I was supposed to do next.

"Derek? Are we training or not?" I snapped out of my daze and looked at Isaac. "Yeah, you guys go at it." I moved from where I stood to sit on a crate. Boyd laughed. "Girl troubles?" I shoot my head up to look at him, all of them staring back at me. "What makes you think that?" Erica looked at me with slightly narrowed eyes and spoke quietly. "It smells like her in here. We all noticed when we came in." I sighed and leaned my head back. "It's not really troubles. Someone just came back from running away." I realized I had just opened up to them and got to my feet. "Train. I'm going to-" I stopped and turned to a soft sound.

*=D POV*

Adaline stood there, bare foot, dressed in black skinny jeans and a tank top. Her hair was pulled back into a pony tail and a camera hung from her neck. "Adaline. I thought you wouldn't come back." Derek took a few steps towards her and she scratched the back of her head. "I wasn't planning on it. But Elliot, he told me to do what makes me happy." She pulled her camera up to her face and clicked the button. "Getting candids of you always made me smile." Adaline looked down and smiled softly. "You look surprised in this. It's a keeper." She looked at the others as the cleared their throats. Isaac stepped forward. "I'm Isaac." Adaline glanced at him and extended her hand. "Adaline. Derek trained me a little. So be sure to take in everything he has to teach you. Knowing how to defend yourself against the hunters really is the key to survival."

Boyed looked at her and then glanced at Derek. "You seem, small." Adaline laughed and Derek glared at him. "Really? Well, I'm a different breed of werewolf. I'll explain one day. Um..?" She trailed off and watched the way he eyed her. "Boyd. That's Erica." Adaline trailed her eyes towards where the other girl stood and smiled. "Erica. Wow, you're beautiful." Derek spoke up before Erica could. "There's nothing there. She's just a beta." Derek was stumbling over his words and explaining things that didn't need to be explained. "Oh, beta or not, she's beautiful Derek." She clicked a picture and frowned. "It's hard to really get a good picture without the help of the sun. But I can work with this. So please, train. I just want to watch." They all did as they were told and Adaline sat on the crate with Derek beside her. "Elliot reads you like a book. Doesn't he?" Adaline nodded and leaned into him a little. "I was hoping he wouldn't notice but, I came home smelling like you." Erica twitched but no one really noticed. "Were you happy out there? Alone?" Adaline looked at him and Derek could see her answer before she spoke. "No. I needed the time alone, but I wasn't happy. Not until I saw-" She stopped and shook her head. "You should be watching them, not me." Derek nodded and looked at the others. "We won't train today. I've got other things to do." He took Adaline's hand and stood up.

They walked out of the warehouse and to his car, driving to some secluded location that Adaline knew nothing about. Derek glanced at her as he drove, watching her take pictures of random things that they passed. When they got to the edge of the woods, he parked, and led her further in on foot. "What's out here Derek?" Derek looked at her and shook his head. "Nothing important. Just get your camera ready." She did as she was told and gasped when they came to a clearing. Right in middle, there was a weeping willow tree. "Oh this is beautiful." Just beyond that, you could see the hills and lights. Adaline began to snap photo's while Derek stood and watched.

When she was done, they sat under the tree. "How can you say there's nothing between you and Erica? She's obviously beyond beautiful." Adaline's voice dropped lower. "She's not damaged." She leaned her head against the tree as she looked at Derek. His eyes looked over her as if he were in deep thought. Adaline sat there, expecting an answer, but never received one. "Derek?" That shook him out of his thoughts and he sighed. "She was an escape for me. At first it was ok. Now, it's just ridiculous. She's not my type." Adaline looked at him and sat up a little. "What is your type Derek Hale?" He smiled and Adaline captured that moment. "I like them classy. Big hearts and big eyes. Lots of hair." He motioned to his head like a mane and Adaline burst out laughing. "Oh, you want a lion? I don't think cats and dogs get along that great." She held her sides and he just stared at her.

"I like them smart. Unafraid. Beautiful. I like a girl, that is confusing, and makes me feel things, I can't feel on my own." He looked off into the distance as he spoke, and she stopped laughing. "What about you? What's the type of guy that catches those doe eyes of yours?" She blushed and Derek smiled at her. He found himself doing that a lot today. "I don't have a type really. I just want someone to accept me for me. Accept that I won't change. That I'm doomed. Someone who, doesn't care that I love pictures. Some one that loves me, as much as I love them." Adaline fell silent and looked down at her camera. "Someone that makes me forget where I am, and what I've done." A smile formed on her lips. "I want to feel love in my belly button." Derek shot her a confused look as she glanced back up.

"Did you find anyone while you were gone?" When she shook her head ,he sighed in relief. "You'll find him one day." They spoke for hours, until the sun began to go down. Adaline smiled to herself and glanced at him. "I remembered you loved sunsets. It was your favorite time of the day. I couldn't think of a better way to welcome you back to Beacon Hills." She took a few photos and one with him in the frame. "Thank you Derek. Today, wasn't what I expected. It was much better than I could've hoped for." She threw her arms around him in a hug, and he carried her to the car on his back, talking along the way. Derek always imagined himself being alone. He thought that he deserved it since everyone in his family was dead. Adaline laid her head closer to his as he walked. She felt comfort, and relaxed more with every step he took. Neither wanted to admit the time between them meant something. Derek was afraid she'd run, and Adaline was afraid of the rejection.

The drive home was silent again, and Derek parked in front of her house, walking her to the door. "You should come train with us sometime. You can show them how it's done. Maybe show them a few of the hunters tricks?" Adaline looked up at him and he couldn't help but reach over and moved the bangs away from her eyes. "I'll see what I can do." She spoke quietly and Derek sighed. "Don't hide behind these bangs of yours. Everyone loves those doe eyes." Adaline nodded and took a step back from him. "Don't hide behind your anger." There was silence and she spoke softly after some time. "Thank you, for the sunset." Derek nodded and watched as she opened her door before taking a step towards him. Placing her hand on his shoulder, she stood on her tip toes and tried to kiss his cheek. He chuckled and took her tiny waist, lifting her up off the ground. Her arms instantly went around him, her nose buried in his neck. "Be here when I wake up. Please?" He nodded and held her tightly against his body. "Anything." When they let go, she smiled and walked inside.

When Derek drove back to his ware house, he found the others there. Isaac looked at him with curious eyes. "Is she going to help us with the Kanima? Or are we going to have to find others?" Derek shook his head and growled. "We're going to keep them in the dark about that. I can't have them involved in our affairs." Erica growled back, not caring that he was the alpha. "You're just trying to keep her safe. We need the help." Derek glared at her and bared his canines. She was right. He just couldn't have her running away again.

**Sooo, yesh, The next one will be better. I never get the first chapters right. XD So, leave a review and I'll update soon! I hope you enjoyed!
