Chapter 4

Disclaimer: Apologies for those still interested in this fic for taking so long to update it. This is also going to be the final chapter. Sorry to those who would have liked to see a longer fic.

"I can't believe this! Those assholes locked us in your room with Mountain Ash!" Ranted Cora Hale angrily.

"Eh, its not too bad since I'm stuck with you and you're all kinds of hot, my little Three Tail Hale."

Cora narrowed her eyes at Scott and walked over and punched him in the shoulder. "OW! No need to get violent now!" He protested while giving her a fake pouty look that she just rolled her eyes over.

For the past month and a half since Cora's return to Beacon Hills, California, her and Scott's old rivalry had been reborn with a sight more intensity to it then in their younger years. At first, the whole thing had been rather entertaining to watch as the two pranked one another. Even getting the others involved to help with the pranks. But eventually, the entertainment value had waned as everyone figured the two would have gotten it out of their systems as they entered the second month of Cora's return. Which was sadly not the case as neither one would back down even if both were checking one another out when the other wasn't looking. Though there had been a time or two when Scott would fluster the Hell out of her by flirting until she left in a huff with suspiciously red cheeks. Anything said on the matter would get shut down rather quickly by the lovely Brunette as well. Giving Lydia and Erica reason to believe their friend was developing something for Scott.

Or perhaps already had developed it back when they were kids and it was just resurging thanks to being around him again. Allison had shown jealousy towards the whole thing since she still felt a great deal for Scott but had yet to do or say anything. Some thought it had to do with Isaac walking around shirtless outside of school and being unusually flirty with her while others just thought it had to do with her dad not wanting her to date Werewolves. The fact he hadn't heard about what Isaac was doing was probably a good thing as well. And so, the group, including a somewhat annoyed Derek and an exasperated Melissa, decided to do something about the rivalry between Scott and Cora. Especially before it drove them all nuts! Early attempts to resolve the matter had failed and if it hadn't of been for Jackson jokingly saying they should lock the two up in a room somewhere to finally deal with their issues, they more then likely would have kept doing all they could until they ran out of ideas. Jackson felt a little smug about them using his idea and gained eye rolls for it.

Deaton surprisingly had been the one to suggest Mountain Ash to be used for Scott's room where his windows and doorway was concerned. And with a little clever lying on everyone's parts, they were able to get the two warring teens into Scott's room by claiming the other wanted to talk peace with one another. Naturally, neither had been real pleased by the turn of events and even less so when they realized they had been locked in with Mountain Ash and had things explained to them! "Seriously though, that's how wars happen you know thanks to unnecessary violence"

"You saying unnecessary violence starts wars? Which by the way, my kind of violence is VERY necessary." Cora told him with narrowed eyes while privately admitting to herself that the green Henley he had on looked great on him.

"Yep! History has taught me that much. And nah, yours isn't. I mean… I've been the less violent of the two of us after all."

Damn, she looks great in yellow. And those pants…

He had to force down the shudder of pleasure the sight of Cora in those tight jeans gave him. Not thinking about the fact that she could probably smell the interest from him if she bothered to use her senses. A doubtful look came his way from the Brunette. "Uh-huh. And… I suppose you have been the less violent of the two of us. Shows I'm the superior of the two of us."

Scott rolled his eyes at that. "Whatever helps you sleep at night. But seriously, our friends have a point though, you know? Our war has gotten a bit of out hand."

A sigh came from her as she thought about that and saw that there was a point to the words from their friends. Bradley Coop had been an unfortunate victim caught in the crossfire of their war. A war that saw him end up without his eyebrows for that matter and he was just one example! But what would they do if they stopped? It just seemed odd to her that they would be at odds with one another! "Are you proposing to surrender to me then?" She asked with raised eyebrows while crossing her arms under her breasts.

Which caught his attention some until he had to snap himself out of it. Though she had noticed and secretly liked it. "Of course not! That would disappoint that Brett kid a lot and I can't have my number one fan disappointed." He told her with a grin and Cora had to roll her eyes as she thought of Aunt Satomi's Beta, Brett Talbot and how much of a fanboy he seemed to be of Scott's.

A fact she had laughed her ass off over as Scott's reaction had been priceless to see that day! "Well, I'm not gonna surrender cause then you'd lord it over my head."

"How about a mutual surrender on both sides then?"

Cora thought about that for a moment while nibbling on her lower lip, earning a small growl from Scott that he hadn't meant to let out and it thrilled her. Even gave her ideas that she could get him all kinds of worked up in their post mutual surrender. Of course he could probably easily do the same but she'd cross that bridge when she got to it. She smirked at him as he grimaced at having been heard growling. "I'll accept the mutual surrender, but on one condition." She told him with a smirk and a mischievous glint in her eyes as she walked up to him.

"Yeah? What's that?" He asked a bit warily while trying NOT to look down her shirt or deeply into her eyes.

"You… Take me out on a date." Came the reply as Cora put a finger on his chest and dragged it about lazily in a circle and inwardly feeling pleased at what her senses was telling her as she did that.

Repressing a growl, Scott boldly wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close to him. Causing her to let out a little gasp as she hadn't expected that! But wasn't going to complain any! "Deal." Came the growl from Scott that she found absolutely hot.

"Then mutual surrender it is."

Feeling pleased by that, he decided to seal the deal with a kiss. A kiss she happily returned as she clasped her hands behind his head. "FINALLY!" Could be heard from the other side of Scott's door.

Causing the two to break up the kiss and chuckle. "Leave us in here awhile you guys. Scott and I need to work on a few things!"

"Just don't have any babies you two! I don't want to end up on tv!"

Scott groaned as snickers came from Cora and she could tell the others were doing the same. "We won't, Mrs. McCall!"

"Good enough for me!"

Chuckling, Cora put her lips near Scott's ear and whispered. "I won't say no to any practice though." Purred the girl as she nibbled on his ear as he groaned while she could hear everyone leaving the second level of the house.

"I think you've found a new way to have fun with me."

Reaching back to look him in the eyes, the She Wolf merely wiggled her eyebrows. "Maybe, maybe not. Have to wait and see."

"I guess I can live with that." He replied with a mock sigh.

"Good boy."

Grinning, he kissed her again and it wasn't long before the kiss deepened and both had a thought that if things had been different, they could have already been past this point and into a Hell of a relationship. But with life having given them an opportunity, they could still have that and were going to run with it as best they could.

Author's Notes: I hope folks will have enjoyed this despite it probably feeling rushed. Had I decided to keep going to show all of what they would have done in their little war, it would have reached this point regardless. R and R!
