Hey guys, so I know that it has been beyond long enough for me to have updated, but I have been having writers block. I tend to write my chapters out of sequence then put them together, that seems kinda silly, but its sometimes the only way I can get anything written down.
So this is a bit from the Formality episode, I have written the rest but don't want to give it all away.
Thank you so much for still being here.
Please just bear with me and I will link all of this together.
I do not own Teen Wolf. Only Del :D
Del finally was back at school, but as soon as she got there she wanted to leave. A large banner hung up as you walked into the school that read 'Beacon Hills High Formal'. This was not high on her to do list. Firstly, being there was not what she thought of as a good time and secondly, finding a date to this thing would prove to be difficult. Due to her whole love experience in Beacon Hills was rather sketchy, Derek was still missing and Stiles, well that was a whole other story she didn't want to confront.
She then saw Stiles talking off Scott's ear as he looked across the hall to Alison, who he was clearly pining for. She made her way over to them.
"Hey", she snapped Scott out of his daydream.
"Hey", they both said.
"So the formal, huh?" She said to break the silence.
"Yeah, who are you going with?" Scott questioned looking back and forth between her and Alison.
"I'm not going" Stiles looked at her.
"Why not?" He tried to sound uninterested, even though he had thought of asking her.
"I don't really want to and as far as taking someone, Derek isn't exactly around, plus I don't think he would go for it." She said with strong gestures.
"Right" Stiles listened tentatively.
"Who are you going with?" She finally asked, even though the thought of Stiles going with someone else to the formal make her sick.
"…Lydia" He said, but he didn't want to because he only said yes because Alison organised it, and he didn't want her to know about his feelings toward Del, when he wasn't sure if they would be reciprocated.
"Really? How did that happen?" She raised her eyebrows in complete surprise.
"Manipulation…mostly" He and Del chuckled.
Scott was still staring at Alison ignoring their conversation. Del looked at him and rolled her eyes.
"Come on Romeo, we have Chemistry" pulling Scott while he tried to get one last look at her.
Even though Del was trying not to think about the formal, the constant flyers, banners and ticket stands were an annoying reminder. Also, the fact that Stiles was going with Lydia was messing with her, she knew that if Lydia actually spent time with him, maybe she would realise how amazing Stiles really was.
SKIP TO AFTER SCHOOL – MCCALL HOUSE
Del is sitting in her room reading a book, when her Aunt Mel comes in, carrying something that shocked her.
"Sweetheart, what is this?" Aunt Mel held up a dry cleaning bag. Del looked silent.
"Where did you get that"? She said wide eyed.
"I was looking in your trunk for motor oil and I found this" Mel opened up the bag to reveal a beautiful black dress. It was one shouldered that began from the centre, the waist was tight and the bottom flared out slightly.
"Is this Angela's"? Mel spoke referring to her sister who was Del's mother.
"Yeah, it was the only thing I couldn't throw away"
"You should wear it to that formal tonight"
"I'm not going and even if I was I wouldn't wear it" She zipped up the bag and hung it up carefully. She sat back down; Mel sat next to her to comfort her.
"Del, it's not going to hurt her memory if you wear it. If anything it will show yourself that you are trying to move on." Del looked up at Mel with the most thankful eyes. What she had said resonated with her.
"I don't have a ticket anyway" Del said defeated, she was actually upset she couldn't go.
"Well…maybe I can fix that" Mel pulled out a formal ticket from her jacket.
"Stiles dropped it off today. He said 'just in case'"
Del sighed. Stiles hadn't given up, which made her fall even more in love with him.
THE WHOLE BIT WITH SCOTT AND HIS MUM
Del walked into the room adjusting her bracelet and dress. She looked up to see Scott and Mel staring at her in disbelief.
"What? ...I know, I look ridiculous" She became embarrassed.
"No!" They both yelled.'
"You look…beautiful" Scott smiled.
Del returned the smile. They booth stood.
"We should go" Scott broke the silence.
They arrive at the school but park a little away, so no one would see Scott.
"So I'm guessing you didn't tell your mum that you weren't exactly allowed to come?" She said sarcastically.
"Not exactly" Scott exited the car as Del laughed off his remark and watched him scale the building. She proceeded to drive to the parking lot. She sat in the car for a minute, collecting herself, finally stepping out. Stiles drove by in his jeep and became distracted by Del and swerved to avoid the kerb he was about to hit. Del looked over at Stiles with confusion and panic. She rushed over to the car.
"Oh my god! Are you guys okay?" Del asked as they exited the car.
"Yeah, yeah…We're fine. I just got…distracted"
"Oh…okay." They stood silent for a moment. "So I'll see you guys in there." Del rushed off to avoid a rather awkward encounter.
Del entered the hall…alone. It was the standard type of dance. Streamers, balloons, pop music and Jackson spiking the punch. She was Lydia and Stiles walking in, she was in need of a drink.
LATER THAT NIGHT
Del is sitting at her table by herself drinking the very spiked punch. Stiles approached her and sat in the vacant chair next to her.
"You know that's spiked right?" He said referring to the drink.
Del then finished the remaining drink in one gulp. "Yep"
"So you're not having a good time?"
"It's not as bad as I thought…Where's Lydia?"
"She went to look for Jackson" He said rather upset. Stiles had feeling for Del, but he couldn't just turn off what he had felt for Lydia since third grade.
"I'm sorry." She placed her hand of his shoulder.
"Do you want to dance?" He perked up.
"Not exactly" She was hesitant.
"Come on!" He stood up quickly holding out his hand.
"Fine" She grabbed his hand and was led to the dance floor that was playing an upbeat pop song. Del began to enjoy herself. The song finished and E.T by Tyler Ward echoed in the gym. Stiles and Del both looked at each other awkwardly. Couples began to pair up.
"We should probably…" Stiles was cut off before he tried to leave the dance floor.
"Just dance with me Stiles" She placed her hands on his shoulder, he rather awkwardly put his hands on her waist. The song made an atmosphere that allowed Del to relax into Stiles' shoulder. She felt safe.
"Are you really okay? I mean…Derek." He looked into her navy blue eyes and beautiful brown hair that lightly caressed her face.
"I don't know. With the way we left things. I think it might be over. For good."
They stared into each other's eyes. Their lips met. It seemed as though their kissed lasted forever. Del ran her hand over his buzz cut and down his neck. He let out a gasp. They finally broke apart. Del looked up to Stiles, he wasn't looking at her. She followed his line of sight to Lydia. She was standing, staring. She looked back to Stiles. How could he be looking at her when they were kissing? Del ripped her hands from his shoulders, she tried to run off but Stiles grabbed her hand.
"Del, wait." He begged.
"Leave…me…alone" Her voice cracked and tears filled her eyes. She ran from the gym barely holding back her tears.
