'Your son displays threatening behaviours around some of the other children.' Mrs Yapp said, her disapproving glasses sitting on the end of her disapproving nose, doing nothing to hide her disapproving stare.
'I apologise for that, he's just turned six and he's a handful, I'll have a talk with-' Stiles started but he was cut off.
'What kind of threatening behaviours?' Derek demanded with a scowl. Unfortunately it wasn't enough to frighten the principle who dealt with up to sixty children at a time.
'Well verbal threats for one, and I quote "if you don't shut up and let me work in peace I'll rip your throat out. With my teeth." Very inappropriate don't you think Mr Hale.' Mrs Yapp said. What an unfortunate name for a teacher, Stiles decided, Mrs Yapp.
'At least he wants to get on with his schoolwork. Have you thought that perhaps the other kids are-' Stiles said hopefully.
'Mr Hale. I will not tolerate this kind of behaviour.' Mrs Yapp snapped.
'You're right of course.' Derek said. Stiles looked around so fast he almost got whiplash. 'I'll speak to my son. We'll discuss his use of threats.'
'See that you do.' Mrs Yapp said standing up. Stiles stood and offered her a hand, but she sniffed at it and turned her head. Stiles peered down at his skin; it looked clean enough, washed recently. There was no dirt or child goo on it.
'At least we know who his Daddy is for definite.' Stiles muttered to Derek but Derek was busy ignoring him. He knelt down in front of the little boy and Stiles couldn't help but compare dark hair, green eyes, perfect scowl. The boy even had a leather jacket to match Derek's.
'What have I told you about using my threats on other kids?' Derek asked raising an eyebrow.
The boy huffed out a puff of air. 'Find my own threats because they're your ones.'
'Good boy.' Derek said standing and sticking his hand out. 'You're suspended for the rest of the week for violent behaviour.' Derek grinned. Stiles wondered, deep down, if Derek was proud of his boy. He certainly seemed so when he bought the boy a large ice cream cone, dripping with chocolate.
'Daddy you're the best!'
