I park my Camaro on the side of the road, look over at Annja and softly smile at her. She's biting her lip and looking down at our hands. I squeeze her hand and she looks up startled.

She laughs nervously and I reach up and push a strand of hair away from her face. "Listen, I want you and Stiles to stay in this car. Lock the doors and if I don't come back with Scott in twenty minutes, drive to Stiles house okay?"

I ask them both but mostly looking at Annja. She swallows hard and looks away for a moment. "okay, please be careful." she says and looks back into my eyes. I nod, hop out of the car, pop the trunk and pull out Alison's jacket.

I sniff the air as I'm walking through the woods, yeah, Scott been here. I pull the draped jacket from my shoulder and hang it on a branch, but not before shaking it a little, letting the wind pick up the scent.

In the distance there's a frustrated howl, and I know Scott's picked up Alison's scent. I race behind some bushes and wait, hoping he'll come soon, I didn't like leaving those two alone in that car, Stiles might try something... I mean, the alpha might try something.

Finally after what seems like days, Scott runs toward the tree, grabbing the coat he yells frustrated. "Where are you?" he says. "Scott, you need to calm down." I say and step out from the brush.

He turns and growls at me, showcasing his fangs. "Scott," I growl out, giving him a warning. "what did you do to her?" he asks. I shake my head.

"Nothing Scott, she got a ride home with Lydia... she's fine. Now I think you should turn back, I don't want to hurt you." I said keeping my voice calm and even. A newly turned werewolf could be dangerous.

He seems like he is listening to me, but then the wind picks up and he catches Alison's scent from her jacket on my shirt. "your lying." he says and runs at me. He slams into me and ushes me into a tree.

I close my eyes, but feel the change coming on. I welcome it, and grab scott, hissing in his face. We fight for ten minutes or so it seems when all of a sudden, a arrow skims thorough the air pinning Scott to the tree. He screams in pain and changes back. I bend down and tear him free. "come on Scott, there coming."

im thankful that he listens to me this time and we run, hiding behind more brush. "I hit one." says a male voice. My eyes narrow. I motion for Scott to follow me, knowing if we don't leave now, surly they will egg one of us on.

"Derek." Annja's voice says as I open the car door. She's sitting in my seat, her hands on the wheel and somehow, that does something to me... my inner wolf howls to be let out. Mine. It growls.

I shake my head. "lead the way." I tell her climbing over her and into the passenger seat. I notice her heart rate speeds up as my face gets an inch from hers. She blushes and nod, starting the car up and speeding off. Looking completely content driving my car.

"are you alright Scott." she asks the boy breaking through the comfortable silence. Scott leans up and grabs her shoulder reassuringly. "yeah, I'm...a lot better." he says smiling at her. She smiles back and turns her attention back to the road.

Once were to Stiles house, the two boys run into the house, grumbling about getting something to eat. I shake my head. Boys, will be boys. I think and smile over at Annja whose, quiet. "are you hurt?"

she asks me as I turn wincing at the motion. When Scott threw me his claws dug into my shoulder. "yeah, I'm okay.. sore, but fine." she doesn't look convinced.

"Take off your shirt." she says pulling me into the house and up to the bathroom. My mouth falls open and I try to ignore just how, flustered... that gets me."wha...what."

I stutter out. She laughs. "you heard me, let me see what's wrong. Trust me, I know what I'm doing im a nurse. "

I pulled my jacket and shirt off, trying not to fantasize about her in a nurse outfit.

I swallow hard as her cold fingers brush against my skin, sending all these intoxicating feelings to the surface.

I wince as she runs a finger over the claw marks. "really, you don't have to do this, I heal pretty quick." I say.

She puts a finger to my lips and I can't help but lean into it and kiss it. She looks startled but smiles, her eyes closing a little as I keep kissing her fingers making my way up-to her bare shoulder.

I feel a shudder go through me as she accidentally touches my hurt shoulder. Her eyes snap open and the lustful look is gone.

"okay, we need to talk." she says after a few minutes. She puts the alcohol away and bandages my shoulder. I let her do it even thou, I know tomorrow it'll be completely healed.

"yeah, I think we do." I say looking at her shoulder, where my lips had just been merely moments ago."why did you send me that note." she says looking up into my eyes.

I frown, what note? "what are you talking about?" I ask. "you know, that note... the one where you basically tell me what a loser I am, and how dumb I am, for even thinking you liked me." I shake my head. "Annja, I never sent that note." I say.

"then why didn't you show up for our date. My eyes narrow." your friend called me and said you changed your mind and that you didn't go out with loners like me." I say. "she said that, and I quote 'Annja said to tell you, that she doesn't associate herself with class creeps. And then she hung up on me."

I tell her taking her hand. "Annja, I would never say anything like that about you. Don't you know that?" she nods. "well, I do now.. and you realize I never said that right." I smile."i had really hoped you wouldn't." I say. She smiles up at me and grabs a hold of me, hugging me.

I let inhale her scent, wanting to memorize everything about her. She smells like honeysuckle, and sandalwood. It's not overpowering at all... I can't help but pull her even closer.

"Annja." I say. She looks up, her warm amber colored eyes bore through me and I forget what I was about to say. "yes?" she asks, a smile tugging on her lips. I glance down at her lips and I realize that I want to be close with someone again. I hadn't felt that in a long time, and it, scared me.

"Are, are you okay Derek?" she ask, looking confused and worried. "Cause if I did something, I'm so-" I shake my head and pull her face to mine, silencing her with my lips.

I realize I'm rambling but when I'm nervous, I can't help to- I stop thinking completely as Derek's warm soft lips capture mine. I wrap my arms around him, desperately needing to get closer to him.

He smiles into the kiss and pushes me against the wall, this kiss becoming increasingly more passionate as our lips continue to move as one.

Soon he's holding my hands above my head and he's nibbling against my throat getting closer and closer to my breast.

He growls in his throat as one hand escapes his iron grip and racks down his back. He arches against me, groaning against my throat. I gasp as he puts his hands behind my thighs and pulls me up against him, my legs wrapping around his waist. He takes advantage of my gasp and slips his tongue into my mouth. He breaks the kiss after a few minutes and looks at me.

"your so beautiful." he tells me, slipping a finger under my shirt making little circles on my hip bone. I blush and shyly plunge mine under his letting my hand flutter around on his skin, I almost groan as I feel his stomach, his muscles constricting at my touch.

"i smile up at him. "i think we better stop before this gets outta hand." I say laughing as he groans and throws his head down on my shoulder. He kisses it once and nods. "yeah, your right... at this rate, we'll never leave this bathroom if we don't." he smirks as I blush redder.

He sets me down and lets me fix myself before we walk out and downstairs, before we reach the bottom, he stops me and kisses me gently on the lips.

"Finally, we thought you two had ran off and eloped or something." Stiles said with a laugh. Derek glares at him. "Shut up." he says. "yes sir." Stiles says looking down wide eyed. I laugh softly. "So, food?" I ask the two boys. They point toward the Taco bell bag on the dining room table. "i think I'll skip.. I've got some stuff to do." Derek says behind me. I frown..but say nothing. "here, I'll walk you out. " I say.

"Hey sis, we went and got your car while you were, helping Derek." Scott said, the last part he said blushing. I laughed. "Well, aren't you a good doggie." I said snickering. Everyone laughed except for Scott, he glared and threw the closest thing to him, a pillow but I ran out the door before it could hit me.

Derek smiled as he caught me in his arms. "whoa there," he said as I slammed into him. We both laughed. He stopped and just stared at me for the longest time.

"I'm really glad I got to talk to you again." he said then, leaning down and brushing his lips against mine. This kiss was sweet and gentle, it wasn't lustful or passionate,

just nice... and I liked this a lot better. "i am too." I mumbled against his lips. He rose up and cupped my cheek caressing my face.

"I'll see you tomorrow?" he asked, although I got the feeling it was meant as a statement. "of-course." I said then. He nodded and I watched him walk-glided more like it- to his car.

With a wave and a smile he sped off into the night, taking all the warmth with him. I sighed and went inside, "I'm going to bed.."

I called going upstairs to the guest bedroom, Stiles's dad wouldn't be back til morning and I'd be long gone by then. "goodnight" they called. I smiled, it had been a very good night.

Did anyone see last-night's episode, crazy huh? I can't believe Derek had turned to the bad side... I knew before too long he'd be back to his normal moody self thou. If only he had Annja to straighten him out... and I really hope he sticks around for season two, if they kill him off, I may quit watching teen-wolf all together. I'd much rather Kate get took off, she's annoying. Oh well, guess we'll have to wait and see. Please keep reviewing, and favorite-ing. thanks again for everything.

Much love, Rhi.
