The first few real chapters will focus on Danny and Matt and their interactions with each other, the rest of the pack, and the developing relationship between them. Some supernatural elements, but mostly drama/romance. Also, apparently Matt doesn't have a last name, so I'm giving him one.

Danny was ready for Lacrosse practice, for some reason he had been antsy and hyper all day and he needed to work out some energy on the field. Normally he played goalie but he switched with Scott for the day, goalie was great but he needed to be moving around the field. He wasn't even sure why he had the energy, just knew that he had woken up that morning feeling like the energizer bunny.

He immediately regretted comparing himself to a bunny after watching Jackson bite into one raw a fun nights before. Danny had been hanging out with Stiles and Allison outside the Lair as the pack went running and hunting, and much to his surprise Jackson had shown up, a dead rabbit hanging from his mouth, bloody dripping down his shirtless chest. Of course he had dropped the rabbit and come to his sense as soon as Stiles called him out on it. But the whole experience was making Danny consider going vegetarian like Lydia.

Jackson signaled Danny at the start of the next play and passed him the ball. Danny was by and large a pretty non-confrontational guy, but he plowed through several teammates today as he and Jackson made a play at the goal. He wasn't even paying attention to who he hit; he just knocked the last defender out of the way, and launched the ball straight into the net. He let out an excited whoop and laughed as Jackson pulled him into a headlock. He looked over at the last defender he had knocked over.

It was Matt, and immediately Danny felt bad about the play.

There was something about the soft spoken transfer student that made Danny smile, but seeing him sitting on the ground trying to catch his breath just made Danny's stomach turn. Danny had sunk his elbow into the other boy's gut while throwing him off, knowing it would wind him. He hadn't known it was Matt at the time but still, it was a low blow. He crouched beside the down player and took off his helmet.

"Hey sorry about that man. Guess I just got caught up in the play." he said, trying to look apologetic but finding himself smiling at the other boy. "You doing ok?"

Matt heaved another breath in and out but grinned at his Hawaiian teammate "I'm fine, just winded. That was a good play." He reached up and let Danny help him to his feet. "I'll be ready for that move next time though."

Danny pulled on his helmet and set up for the next play.

An hour and half later, Danny and Matt had found they were fairly well matched on the field. Giving and taking hit after hit, blocking each other's plays, stealing the ball from each other, and more than a few times knocking the other on their ass. They left the field tired but laughing at each other. Scott, Stiles, and Jackson had noticed the two and walked after them, keeping some distance.

"I didn't know Matt was into guys..." Scott said awkwardly.

"Well at least now you don't have to worry about him hitting on Allison, well maybe you do, you know if he swings both ways. Then again, I don't think Allison would go for a bi guy." Stiles' continue to ramble for a minute; neither Jackson nor Scott knew what about. "Wait does that mean that both the gay guys we know don't think I'm good looking? That's so not cool. I should ask Matt what he thinks."

Stiles would have taken off after Matt and Danny if not for a hand grabbing the back of his jersey. "Leave the two alone Stilinski." Jackson said, just a hint of a glare in his eyes. "Danny could use something normal in his life after all the wolf stuff" he added in a mumble.

Stiles looked over Jackson for a second "Wow you actually have a heart under all those designer clothes and hair gel...that's like news worthy, we should call a press conference.'Jackson Whitmore cares about other people', it'll be front page above the fold ne..." Stile would have continued but he found himself face down in a mud puddle.

"Careful where you walk Stilinski." Jackson said with a smirk before heading into the locker room.

Scott helped Stiles up and shrugged, as Stiles nodded. "Yeah I probably deserved that. Stupid wolf strength"

Matt had finished showering and changing, trying to make sure his eyes didn't stay on the young Hawaiian at the shower next to him for too long. Danny was all bronze skin, muscle, and hotness to Matt. He knew that Danny was gay, hell everyone knew that, but Matt wasn't sure what Danny thought of him. Sure they were friends but that had all started when they both joined the pack, and most of what they bonded over was the odd things the wolves tended to do. Maybe Matt was just Danny's only outlet.

Matt had transferred to Beacon Hill when his dad had gotten a job as a doctor at the hospital Scott's mom worked at. His mom was a photographer like him and taught him everything she knew. She had a studio in the back of their house, one that he got to use whenever he wanted. The transition from living in San Francisco to living in this small town hadn't been easy but it was at least interesting now that he was in on all the wolf drama.

Matt had dated boys and girls his whole life, and living in San Francisco that was pretty normal and fairly tame compared to what some of his friends were into. He wasn't sure he was ready to be out at Beacon Hill yet though, even though people like Danny made it look easy.

"Hey Matt, how about I make up for that last play with some food?" Danny asked, shocking Matt out of his brain as he pulled on his shirt.

"You don't have to do that man. I probably own you for the stick to the dick though." Matt said as they both winced and laughed "Sorry again about that."

Danny laughed and shrugged "Ok then, let's get food. I'll let you buy mine and I'll pay for yours."

Matt wasn't sure if this was just two teammates hanging out or if Danny was asking him out. Either way Matt was in. "Yeah that sounds great. My cars in the shop though so you'll have to drive."

"Sounds like a plan. I gotta talk to Jackson for a second but I'll meet up with you outside." Danny said as he grabbed his bag.

Matt finished getting ready and looked in the mirror, only to realize he'd pulled his shirt on inside out. Frustrated he quickly reversed it and headed outside to wait for Danny.

Jackson was leaning on his locker in a towel talking to Isaac about something when Danny walked up. Jackson tended to always been in some state of undress whenever he could away with it. Danny was used to it by now but he saw Isaac keep looking at the pile of clothes on the bench next time obviously wondering when the other boy was going to get dressed.

Danny grabbed the boxers from the top of the pile and threw them at Jackson's face. "Get dressed, this isn't some porn. No one wants to see you naked."

"Well that's a lie; even if I couldn't hear heartbeats I know that everyone wants to see me naked." Jackson said but he started getting dressed.

"Whatever, can you do me a favor?" Danny asked "I was supposed to help Stiles and Derek with some research tonight. They needed get into the library computer system. Just give them this flash drive and tell them to run the program. I can't make it and Stiles already left with Scott."

Jackson took the drive and stuck it in the pocket of the jeans...jeans he had yet to button or zip. Danny rolled his eyes.

"Yeah no problem. Why can't you make it?" Jackson asked, his mouth a slightly wicked grin

"Yeah, Derek isn't gonna be happy your skipping pack time." Isaac added, his own face was full of amusement.

"I have something to do," mumbled Danny.

"No you have a date with Matt" Jackson said as Danny's head snapped up. "Wolves have enhanced hearing remember?" He pointed to his head.

"It's not a date; we are just grabbing some food." Danny started to say but was cut off.

"Yeah, that is so not what it sounded or smelled like" said Isaac, and continued when Danny gave him an odd look "Both of you smell like you need a cold shower."

Danny sputtered "Wait, he's into guys? He didn't set off my Gaydar at all."

Jackson laughed "Well he set something off in you. Now get out of here and have fun on your date."

Danny walked away from his two laughing friends, a smile slowly splitting his face. 'Well so much for this just being food' though Danny as he made his way to his car where Matt was already waiting.

Matt has asked to stop by his house before grabbing food, so Danny followed his directions to a house a couple blocks from where Jackson lived. This was the nice part of town; Danny hadn't realized that Matt's family had money like this. While Danny and Matt had spent a significant amount of time together that last few months, it had all been at school, lacrosse, or dealing with the wolves, so Danny didn't know that much about the boy he was possibly on a date with.

They entered the house and Danny was overwhelmed by the number of photos hanging on the walls. Pictures of Matt and his parents and other family, friends, what looked like vacations and birthdays, every occasion in Matt's family's life was documented on the wall of the entry way and up the staircase. The women in many pictures who must have been Matt's mother appeared at a door that looked like it led to the kitchen, flour cover her jeans and t-shirt and finding its way into her hair.

"Hey Mom" Matt said, giving her a kiss on the check. "This is Danny, we're going to get some food, I just want to change." With that Matt made his way up the stairs, leaving Danny with his mother.

"Hello Danny, I'm Alex" she said while extending her hand to Danny, who took it gently and gave her his best parent smile.

"Nice to meet you Mrs. Logan."

"Please call me Alex. Now I am baking, or trying to, come into the kitchen and wait for Matt. I have some cookies that are ready." Alex was a striking woman, slender, with light brown hair that was pulled back in a ponytail. She had kind eyes and her lips seem to constantly smiling. The flour covering her made her look more like an overgrown kindergartener then anyone's mother. Danny instantly liked her and followed her into the large and flour covered kitchen.

He found a stool that wasn't completely covered in baking ingredients and helped himself to a cookie from the plate in front of him.

"So how do you know my soon Danny?" Alex asked as she scanned a recipe and measured ingredients. Danny wasn't sure what she was making, but it seemed complicated.

"Well we go to school together, but mostly from Lacrosse I guess." Danny said as he took a bite, the cookie peanut butter, Danny's favorite.

"Oh, so you play? What position?"

Their conversation continued for a few minutes as she asked about school and lacrosse and he asked about her work. It was much more comfortable than Danny would have expected, and he was glad he had a chance to meet her.

Matt reappeared at the kitchen door wearing clean clothes and obviously having fixed his hair. He had been wearing jeans and a t-shirt after practice, and while he had retained the jeans, a blue Henley and brown vest now covered his slim but muscular frame. Danny caught himself smiling and staring and looked away as he stood.

"Thanks for the cookie Mr. Lo…Alex" Danny said polite.

"No problem Danny, you're welcome here any time" she gave her son a kiss on the check and surprised Danny by giving him one as well.

"See ya later Mom, try not to blow up the house please" Matt teased as they walked out.

"I'll try Matt; you two have fun on your date." She said, all of her attention back on the cooking.

Danny and Matt looked at each other, eyes a little wider, but neither corrected her as they walked out. A smile broke out over Danny's face.

"So this is a date?" he asked the lighter skinned boy.

"Um, I don't know…maybe?" Matt replied a little unsure of himself.

"Maybe? I can live with maybe." Danny said as he slid into the car.

Dinner was fun, just pizza at a local place and some soda, but Danny and Matt had easy and interesting conversation about school, Matt's life in San Francisco, computers and camera's, lacrosse, the pack. Everything really. They paid for each other's food while laughing at the silliness of it and made their way back to Danny's car.

Before Danny started the car, Matt put his hand over Danny's.

"So tonight was a date right?" he asked of his Hawaiian teammate.

"Yeah, and a pretty good one at that" Danny said with a smile.

Matt laughed and nodded "Good. I wasn't sure you liked me like that actually."

Danny laughed this time "Dude, I didn't even know you liked guys. So we'll just say we were both wrong and move on."

Matt grinned "Can I show you something?"

Danny raised an eyebrow questioningly "Sure where to?"

"Head back to my house, but pull into the alley behind it."

Danny did as directed, one hand on the steering wheel, the other being held by Matt the whole way. Mumford and Sons, The Decemberist, and Adele filling the comfortable silence.

As Danny pulled over behind Matt's house, the shorter teen let out a breath. "My mom is the only person I've ever shown this too, just so you know…" his voice was little more than a whisper, and had a vulnerable edge to it.

Danny squeezed the boys hand reassuringly, and they got out of the car. Matt unlocked a door to a building on the back of his parent's property and led Danny in. He hit a switch and a few hundred Christmas lights came on, illuminating the space. Hanging on the walls were pictures that Matt had taken; landscapes, portraits, artistic pieces and candid shots. There were pictures of all the member of the pack, Danny included, a few pictures of the wolves fully transformer, thankfully they just looked like large wolves.

Danny could place when and where a lot of the shots had been taken, but hadn't remembered Matt taking them. Matt had caught intimate moments between Scott and Allison, Stiles being goofy, Jackson and Lydia looking like models. He had photos of Boyd, Erica, and Isaac training, but also individual pictures of the three. None seemed to know that they were being photographed. There were even photos of Derek that made him look like less of a complete psycho. Danny was surprised when he saw a picture of himself, smiling softly and sitting on the steps of the Lair. That had been just a week or so ago.

"These are amazing Matt" he reached out and touch a large print out of Jackson. The boy looked like he was about to cry and was sitting on the back steps of his house. "Wow, he looks so sad."

"Yeah that was from back before I joined the pack, back when he was still that creepy lizard thing that kept killing things. I think he knew he was doing something even if not what" Matt said, his voice soft.

Danny turned to Matt, who stood only a few inches from his side. "Thanks for showing me this."

"Thanks for not thinking I'm and stalker" Matt said with a smile.

"Well, you could still be a stalker, but at least you're a cute one." Danny said as he placed a hand against Matt's cheek.

Matt leaned in the hand, his own hand reaching out to rest against Danny's chest. "So you think I'm cute?"

Danny rolled his eyes and leaned into the other boy. "Well duh" he whispered as his lips pressed against Matt's.

The kiss was soft, and gentle, and didn't last long enough for either of the boys. But when they pulled away both panted slightly and leaned into each other.

"I should really get going" Danny said softly, "My parents are gonna wonder where I am."

"You could call them you know?" Matt replied with a laugh

Danny smiled into the other boys hair "yeah but then I'd be tempted to stay and I like taking things slow."

"Slow sucks," Matt said with a sigh. He raised his head and kissed the Hawaiian again. "Walk me to the door?"

"Of course, I'm a gentleman" Danny said with a smile that made Matt feel warm inside.

As they walked to the back door, hands tangled together, they were both smiling. A final kiss on the back porch and a quick goodnight and Danny headed back to his car.

He sent a text to Jackson when he got home. "You were right…was a date…I'll kill you if you make fun of this"

Jackson's reply was three words "Told you so"
