Kira is on her junior year in college, meaning her third year living in New York by herself. Her parents still lived in Beacon Hills so she went back for summer vacation. She was happy to had been accepted into Columbia University but saying goodbye to the people she love was hard. She still kept in touch with them during the school year. She and Scott decided freshman year that the distance wasn't fair to each other and end it the relationship in good terms. It was hard at first but now they're just good friends who care a lot for one another.
Today is another day for Kira; she had a couple classes then went to work. Now she was on her way to her apartment which honestly was her favorite part of the day. Walking home with headphones the music all the way up, lost in her own thoughts not exactly paying attention forward. That's it until she walks into someone on their back. "OMG! I'm so sorry!" She apologizes to the man waiting for him to turn around. When the man finally turned around she looked up at his face. "Derek?!" She yells in a questioning tone, eyes wide in surprise.
"Kira, what are you...? Columbia right?" Derek remembered that the girl goes to Columbia, he had also gone his own way from the pack but still keeps in touch with them mostly with Scott.
"What are you doing here last thing I heard about you was that you left Beacon Hill to travel around." Kira too off her headphones in order to listen to him. Is been a couple of years since she has seen Derek due to the fact the when she went back he was never there.
"Well I used to lived with Laura here my apartment is a few blocks away. But how about we catch up in the dinner in the corner because I'm starving, that's of course if you don't have anywhere else to be right now." Derek hadn't eaten all day due to him renovating his apartment. He always wanted to make some changes but Laura never let him.
"Ahh... yeah sure." She answers hesitant because she was really tired but she doesn't want to be rude and is nice to see a familiar face around here. She has made friends and all but none who knew what she really is. They started walking towards the dinner making small conversation on the way. When they got there, they sat on a table for two in a corner. The waiter came to take their order right away.
"So how long have you been here" Kira asks Derek taking a sip of her soda.
"For about a week now, I forgot how noisy it was to lives in the city." Derek responds.
"Yeah you get used to it, but is weir that I hadn't seen you before. Are you here with Braeden?"
"yeah it is. No Braeden and I broke up about two years ago; she didn't want to be tide down in one place or to one person." Derek explains but voice normal like it didn't hurt.
"Ohh sorry to hear that" Kira mention but honestly she wasn't that sorry, for the first time in the whole she actually takes a look at Derek. He looks better than ever and that's saying something since he has always been this type of god of hotness.
"I guess it wasn't meant to be" Derek joke watching as Kira laughs. She is certainly not that innocent and shy 17 year old teenager who used to get embarrassed easily. No she is certainly not. "So how are things with Scott I guess the distance must be really hard?" He couldn't help himself he had to ask.
"Well we're not together anymore but we still friends." Kira answers as she stops laughing.
"Sorry to hear that." Derek lies.
"The distance didn't do us any good and it wasn't fair to either of us, so I guess it was for the best." Kira smile up at Derek. They talked and laughed, enjoying each other's company. When the finally decided to leave Derek insisted in walking Kira home due to the fact that it was late, that's what he told her when truthfully it is because he just wanted to. When they finally got to Kira's place, they exchange numbers then Derek took off.
Kira started taking off her clothes while recapturing the events of the night. She couldn't help the smile that appear on her face at the memory of Derek. "Oh no, nooo Kira you are not allowed to have any type of feelings for him. He probably just sees you as a stupid little girl, so don't even imagine anything with him except a friendship." She whispers to herself as she got in the shower.
After dropping Kira home Derek just went to his apartment, reliving the events of the night. He enjoyed Kira's company, it was refreshing and honestly she had brightened his night like none had in a really long time. He was having feelings for this girl and he likes that feeling but a when he remembers that Kira was Scott's girlfriend and that possibly the only reason they broke up was because of the distance, he couldn't help but feel guilty and a little sad. He couldn't do that to Scott and plus Kira probably only sees him as Beacon Hills sourwolf, she could never even see him as more than that.
