Got a couple favourite and follows so i'll continue :)
Dani's p.o.v
Monday
"Uh..hi" a somewhat shy but strong voice says from behind me. I turn around and find a pretty, thin, brown-haired girl. She looks familiar..this must be Cora.
"Cora? Cora Hale?" I ask her. She nods, looking a little confused. "I talked to your brother Derek, he said you'd find me"
"Oh..well, yeah"
"What is it you need help with?" I ask her, sensing she feels a little awkward asking for help.
"Like every other teenager, English" she says. I chuckle at her answer, it's why I tutor Boyd and Isaac too. "Do you have other kids..you know..like me?" she asks shyly.
"Yeah. Isaac and Boyd, both your age, do you know them?" I ask her, hoping to have her feel more comfortable once she's over at my house.
"Yeah..they're in my English class" she says, a small smile tugging at her lips.
"Good, we can all work on the same things then" I tell her with a smile of my own. "Well I actually have both of them coming over this evening if you want to join right away?" I ask her.
"I just have to check with Derek but i'm sure he won't mind" she says. I exchange numbers with her and give her my address, she'll come over if she can.
..
I smile at Isaac as he nods and goes to sit with Boyd at the table. I roll my eyes when I turn to see Camden.
"Isaac will see you later" I say, trying to close the door. His hand shoots out and stops it. I sigh heavily, i'm really not in the mood for his 'I can get any girl I want with a simple pick-up line' attitude.
"Why don't you give me a goodbye kiss first?" he teases, puckering his lips. Someone behind him clears his throat. He spins around and his face drops when he sees it's Derek Hale.
"I came to drop off Cora" he gruffs, Cora beside him, glancing between Camden and I.
"I'll-i'll be 'round to pick up Isaac later" Camden says quietly, squeezing past Derek to get to his car. I let out a sigh of relief, one Derek doesn't miss.
"The other two are inside already, why don't you go on through Cora?" she nods and gives Derek a small smile and wave before going inside.
"Um..boyfriend giving you trouble?" Derek asks awkwardly.
"More like 'stupid jock who can't take a hint'" I scoff. There's a silence between us bordering on awkward. "We'll be finished by 8..will you be picking Cora up?" I ask him, breaking it.
"Yeah..i'll swing by then" he says. It feels like the converation is over so I move to go back inside when Derek catches my arm. The action makes me jump, i'm still not used to stranger's touches yet. Especially on that arm that close to my scar. "I-i'm sorry" he mumbles, letting go.
"Um.." I clear my throat. "It-it's fine" I try to cover-up.
"I just wanted to apologise for how I acted the other day.." he starts, suprising me. "Alot of people associate our family name with..with the fire" he admits quietly.
"I didn't intend for it to be like that" I tell him softly.
"I know that now.." he says.
"I'm glad" I say, giving him a soft smile.
"I'll be around later to pick up Cora" he says again.
"Okay, see you later Derek" I say as he leaves.
"Bye Dani" he says, getting into his sleek and probably extremely expensive black camaro and taking off.
..
The tutor session goes by in a flash. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't looking forward to the end though. I'm really tired and I just want to be left alone so I can eat dinner and go to sleep. Cora, Boyd and Isaac are talking, waiting to be picked up. I sit back down in the one seater, resting my chin on the arm and letting my eyes slip closed.
..
I must have fallen asleep because when I wake up to someone pulling me out of the chair, it's really dark. I make a 'mmm?' noise in my sleepy state.
"It's me Dani" Stiles says. I open my eyes as much as my heavy eyelids will let me and sure enough, Stiles is carrying me up to the room. I hate to make him haul my ass up the stairs but i'm too tired to do anything about it. When I feel my soft mattress underneth me, I snuggle into my blankets. "Don't get up to read them now but they left you a couple notes, just thank yous I think. They're on the desk" Stiles says, tucking my blankets around me. "Goodnight D"
"Night Sti" I mumble, slipping back into unconciousness.
