Bbbzzzz Bbbzzzz BBBBbbbbzzzzzz Darn alarm. Wait, why is my alarm going off? I turned toward my nightstand to shut it off and looked around my room. The first thing I noticed was how quiet it was. Next I realized I was alone. I tried to remember everything that happened last night. The last thing I remember was feeling nauseous. Oh, I must have pasted out. That means I never got the full conversation in with Derek. Derek! Was that even real? It had to of been a dream. Right?

"Stiles man, how was your beauty sleep?" Scott laughed when he walked into my room. He must have taken a shower since his hair was still wet.

"Dude, what happened last night?" I was not going to give any hints about my conversation with Derek, seeing if I just dreamt it all.

"After Derek told you about being his mate you kind of past out, but don't worry it was a manly passing out you did," smiled Scott.

"So everything actually happened last night? I am Derek Hale's mate and because of that I am in the same kind of danger I am always in? Great." I have no idea what is going to happen in the future, but I do know I want to give Derek a chance. If he has already agreed to be my mate, boyfriend, I can at least meet him half way.

"Stiles, are you okay with all of this?" Scott was concerned about me, and that I am grateful for, but I so many things happening and now Jackson's words are coming back into mind. 'You don't belong. You can't do anything right..just in the way.' What happens if he was right? "By the way, Allison told me what happened between you and Jackson. He's an ass. One day he will realize how important you are to the pack. So, don't let him get to you. Plus, after Derek found out, I bet the lizard will not be too confrontational with you anymore. He got pissed off, and pulled Derek downstairs to have a 'talk'." Great, so now I have an Alpha werewolf not just as a boyfriend, but as a protector. Another reason for Mr. Lizard to make fun of me about. I turned around and headed to my closet to get ready for school.

At school, everything went as it usually did. Allison and Scott snuck around campus to meet one another but to make sure they are out of the way of the cameras. Boyd, Erica, and Isaac are walking around with their heads held up high wearing their new leather. And Jackson is pushing me into lockers saying my tough boyfriend can't protect me at school. Right now the only person who I can talk to is Lydia. I filled her in on what has been going on since the last pack meeting.

"You and Derek are together now?"

"Yes, Lydia, didn't you hear anything I just said?" I love Lydia, but she can get distracted almost as easily as I can.

"Well, Mr. Rude, I was just thinking of what that means. Since Derek is the Alpha of our pack, in a way you are know the 'pack mom'. I just thought you may want to know." Lydia stared off toward something behind me. I was about to ask but she beat me to it. "Gerard put up a new camera in the library. It has the view of the back stacks. He is starting to be a little controlling. Anyhow, how is it dating Derek now?"

"Lydia, I don't even now! I mean I just found out about this last night….."

"Do you at least like him?"

"Well, um, I guess I always have but I didn't want to think about it too much because I knew I would have been rejected."

"He's not rejecting you now Stiles. If what I have learned is correct, Derek will always love you. Yes, you both can still bicker and try to hate each other, but in the end your love will never fade. It's like science, you chemical makeup calls for each other even if you both don't want to believe it."

"Lydia, I just think everything is going too fast. I mean I have never been one to judge the neediness of physical touch and all and I know I am only a teenager with certain needs, but we haven't even kissed. Hell we haven't even touched each other. Well, only if you count the numerous times he has pushed me into a wall!"

"When he pushed you into a wall, was it an affectionate touch? I mean, did he ever hurt you or was it to keep you still so he could scent you without you knowing about it."

"Wait, he can scent me? So I smell like Derek to other abnormal things all the time! Why didn't anyone tell me about this? I so could have used the smell to my advantage when Peter kidnapped me to get Scott on his side!"

"Stiles stay calm, you're making a scene!" I looked around the library and sure enough, people were staring at me. I was a little too riled up to think straight, so the next thing I knew, I was standing on top of a table and yelling, "I am dating Derek Hale, so stop staring at me or I will sick him on all of you. Now leave me alone!" Lydia's eyes were wide with shock while the student body had their jaws drop. At first I didn't know what was going on, and then I realized what I just said. OOpps! Bad Stiles!

Authors note: I just wanted to say thanks for reading! Do not worry, many chapters will be coming up. I have so many things I want for this story and I will finish it. I know it seems slow right now, but it will be speeding up to the point where Hogwarts will be in effect in the next few chapters.

I will try to update at least once a week. I am heading off for college in a week, so I will be busy, but I promise I will update weekly.

Last thing, please leave reviews. This is my first story I have ever written, so the more comments I get the better I will learn. Thanks.
