Chapter Six:
Diana's POV
"Ugh, I hate rock climbing." Sami groans from beside me.
"Gym's not even an hour." I tell her. "You can make it."
"Yeah, by the way, when am I getting the key?" She asks me.
"Oh, I don't know." I tell her. "My mom's been working on this case with Mr. Whittemore."
Sami nods, "Right."
We snap our heads towards the rock wall as a rope begins dropping fast. I see Scott land on the mat with a thud.
The class starts laughing and Coach Finstock sits beside him laughing, "Your pain gives me a special kind of joy, right here." He tells him, pointing to his chest.
I smirk at him and he rolls off the mat, undoing his harness. Allison climbs down from the wall next to him.
"Stilinski! Erica!" Yells Finstock, gesturing for the two to climb.
"So, what did you think of the movie?" Sami asks me, turning away from them and looking at me.
"It wasn't half bad." I tell her. "Bella's kind of a brick, though."
"A brick?" She asks me, giving me a half-confused, half-amused look.
"Yeah, like a lego brick." I finish. "She needs more emotion."
Sami shakes her head. "Well, she's desperately in love with a vampire. How much more emotional can she get?"
"See, that's not realistic." I tell her. "Vampires don't sparkle. But I didn't mind the werewolves."
"That's because they were shirtless half the time." Sami tells me. "But, I didn't mind them either."
I smile at her and we snap our heads towards Erica on the rock wall. She's starting to hyperventilate and she starts gasping for breath. Sami and I look at each other, getting closer to the wall to see what's up.
"Erica? Feeling sick?" Coach taunts. "What is this? Vertigo?"
Lydia gives him a sharp look and then adds, "Vertigo's a dysfunction of the vestibular system of the inner ear. She's just freaking out."
Sami gives me a look and says, "Did you understand any of what she just said?"
"Freaking out, I believe." I mutter to her. She nods.
"Coach," Allison tells him, "Maybe it's not safe. You know she's epileptic."
"What?" Coach asks, obviously not having known this before. "Why doesn't anybody tell me any of this stuff?"
"Just kick down!" Sami says, trying to be gentle about it. "There's a mat."
Erica looks down uncertainly, embarrassed. She nods, then kicks off and floats to the mat, unbuckling her harness and walking away, ashamed. The students laugh at her as she leaves and Sami shoots one of them a death glare and she immediately shut up.
"Okay, that's it for today!" Coach says. "You're dismissed!"
The students flow from the room and into the locker rooms.
"You think she'll be okay?" Sami asks me.
I nod. "Yeah, I guess."
We change into our school clothes again and then talk more about werewolves in the Twilight movie.
"Okay, question number uno," Sami says, sliding her belt through the loops in her jeans. "If there was a werewolf in our town, would you go out with him?" Sami asks me.
"The hell kind of question is that?" I ask her. She shrugs.
"Ill take that as a no." Sami murmurs. "Question number two."
"Erica's having a seizure!" A girl shouts.
The girls run out to see the while Sami and I look at each other.
"Should we go check?" I ask her. She sighs, not knowing what we should do.
The sirens from an ambulance echo through the room and Sami sighs again.
"Just give her some room." Sami says, "She'll be fine, the paramedics are here."
I nod and grab my bag.
After school, I sit in Sami's room with her, watching the sappiest movie of all time.
Titanic.
"Why is she making him paint her naked?" Sami asks me.
"Because they didn't have porn, duh." I tell her. We laugh at our own horrible joke.
"Well, true." Sami says.
We get to the Titanic sinking and Sami starts to tear up as Dicaprio starts to die.
"Why doesn't she share?" Sami asks, throwing popcorn at the screen. "She's such a stupid bitch, such a stupid, selfish bitch." Sami whines.
"Sami, just relax." I tell her, eating some more popcorn.
"No," Sami says, shoving a handful of popcorn into my mouth. I spit it back at her and she wipes it off of her face with a disgusted look.
"You asked for it!" I tell her.
Sami rolls her eyes, punching my shoulder.
"Ow!" I moan.
"You asked for it." She says.
"Fine, whatever!" I say. I check my watch and see it's almost seven.
"Hey, uh, I gotta run." I say. "My mom wants me home at seven thirty."
"No!" Sami whines, grabbing my ankle. I think she intends for it to be as not to let me leave, but she ends up making me flop off the bed, instead.
"Sami!"
"That didn't go as planned." She says, leaning over and staring down at me sprawled out on the floor.
I huff and stand up, getting whiplash from the fall. I rub my neck and get a headache.
"Bye, Sami." I tell her, leaving from her room.
"Bye, Diana!" She yells to me.
I go down the stairs and find Mrs. Rayne in the kitchen.
"Don't you want to stay here for dinner?" She asks.
"Uh, thank you, Mrs. Rayne. But I have to go have dinner with my mom." I tell her.
"Have a good night!" She says, flipping her blonde hair to the side.
"You, too!" I say, closing the door behind me.
I fumble around with my purse, looking for the keys to the motorcycle.
"Diana." Says a voice form behind me. I turn and see the man from before smiling at me.
"Hi." I say, setting my purse on my side. "Uh, Derek, right?"
He smiles at me again and I know its his name.
"Are you stalking me?" I ask, jokingly, putting my hands on my hips. He takes a step closer.
"I can see how that would be flattering, but no." He says.
I smile at him. "So, what are you doing around here?"
"Looking for someone." He tells me, looking around as if to prove his point. "But it seems I've lost them."
"Hope you find who you're looking for." I say.
He nods and walks over to my motorcycle. "Yours?"
"My brother's." I say.
"It's nice." He tells me.
"You know how to ride?" I ask him. He smiles up at me.
"Yes, I do." He says.
"Well, would you like to demonstrate?" I ask, waving my arms around the motorcycle like a showgirl.
He smirks. "You have the keys?"
"Trying to find them." I say, fumbling through my purse again. He takes a step towards me and puts his hand in the pocket of my red coat, taking out my keys.
"Are these it?" He asks.
I nod, feeling a bit unsteady with him so close. I don't show it though.
"Yes," I say, taking them from his fingers.
"Still want me to demonstrate?" He asks. I smile at him politely and shake my head.
"I'm already late for family dinner." I tell him. "But thank you."
He nods and backs away from the motorcycle, which I'm grateful for. Him being so close when I don't know him is giving me an instinct to leave.
"Maybe I'll see you later." I tell him, putting my helmet on and starting the engine.
"Maybe." He murmurs to himself, smiling at me before disappearing into the shadows.
I kick the stand up and drive away, feeling slightly scared.
Derek's POV
I walk away from her, feeling awfully stupid about myself.
I've been told that your mate is supposed to feel about you as you feel about them. Wanting to get closer. But I could feel the stress coming from her, feeling intimidated.
I watch her drive away and shake my head.
Mate, not my mate. What the hell was going on?
Ugh, did anyone else watch Monday's episode? Allison's mom just makes me...mad. Anyways, I kind of hope she dies, but again i want her to be a werewolf! How cool of a twist would that be?
And Jackson! Whoa, did not see that coming when the puppeteer said that he was killed. i think that if he's dead, he was a tormented teenager and a prank went wrong.
If you have any ideas of your own about it, PM me. i want to know what you guys think.
Review!
