Here I thought that Chemistry couldn't possibly get any worse, but I guess that God thought that it was a good time fuck up my life even more in a short period of time. I mean becoming a werewolf. Check. Learning to face my relationship with my brother. Okay, I can deal. That I am Isaac Lahey's 'mate' or something. I could definitely handle that. My purple eyes and freaky power wind thing. Okay, God, you are pushing it. Finally, with this Argent walking in and threatening my new found life before I could even began to enjoy it. God, you're asking for it now.
I pulled my phone out to text Scott and everyone else to warn them.
"Ms. Mccall, no phones in my classroom." Kate snapped maliciously before walking over and taking it out of my hand then setting it on her desk.
Now, there was no way I am going to pass chemistry; despite however much Isaac and I studied.
"I still can't believe she did that." Erica stressed standing next to me while I put my books into my locker.
"Well, believe it. Do you think with everything going on that-actually forget it." I ran a hand through my hair nervously as Isaac and Boyd approached us.
"We warned Scott. Ready to go?" Isaac beamed at me.
"Shouldn't we have a pack meeting or something?" I questioned alarmed about Kate's presence.
"We kind of just did," Boyd stated dryly.
Raising my eyebrows, I conveyed something along the lines of, 'Why wasn't I there?'.
Isaac let out a groan, "Please don't worry about it. I do believe we have a date which doesn't include arguing."
Reluctantly saying goodbye to Erica and Boyd, we departed outside to Derek's gorgeous Camaro sitting in the mostly vacant lot.
Letting out a mischievous laugh, Isaac smirked at me before dangling the keys in front of me.
"There is no way in hell that he lent it to you. Such a bad boy, I thought you lived for sucking up to your alpha. I didn't take you for the stealing type," I exclaimed shaking my head, a cheeky grin plastered my face.
"What can I say? I have someone that I need to suck up to more," He slipped the keys into my hand grinning, "Also, I have always wanted to steal his car."
Following Isaac's poor directions skills, I ended up pulling in the local graveyard.
"Uh, are you sure we are in the right place?" I asked while he pulled something from the back seat.
Sending me a foolish look, Isaac pulled me to the outer edge before setting down a blanket and pulling out a bag full of food. Cheetos, cheese sandwiches, and crème filled chocolate cupcakes. Laughing when Isaac put Cheetos on a cheese sandwich before handing it me.
"Why thank you fine, sir," I told Isaac taking a bite out of it.
"You're welcome, my lady," He replied eating his own.
Pulling out my notes and homework for Chemistry, Isaac groaned painfully, taking out his own in the process. After two hour of studying with conversations mixed in, we finished our assignment.
"If you don't mind me asking, why did you pick here of all places?" I laid on my back looking up at chiseled features.
"My father and I use to work here until he died. We weren't close, but my I feel at peace here for some reason."
"What happened to him?"
"To make it short, Jackson used to be a reptile killer called a kanima then he killed my father before becoming a werewolf."
"Do you miss him?"
"No." His mood cold and distant.
"I won't ask anymore questions. I don't want you to be upset." I reached for his hand, placing mine over his. His eyes softened grasping my hand.
"He was an abusive son of a bitch who had it coming to him."
"I'm sorry."
"I know, I can feel it right here." He places my palm over his heart.
Feeling the steady beat of his heart underneath my palm, my heart warmed staring back at his unwavering gaze.
I pulled away changing the subject as a brisk wind blew the blanket onto us.
"So what did you guys talk about at your pack meeting?" I asked innocently.
"It's our pack and nothing worth discussing." He answered placing a kiss on my hand.
My cheeks crimson, Isaac packed up to get out of the changing weather. We drove back to my house. Walking me to the door, my nerves grew wondering if he was expecting something more.
"Stop worrying, Erin, I'm not going to push you to do anything you aren't ready for," Isaac soothed leaning against the porch. I nodded slowly, pausing to take him in the rays of the setting sun make him glow. An unnamable feeling swelled in my chest.
"Thank you for tonight." I kissed his cheek swiftly, glancing back to see his surprised expression before I shut the door.
Arriving at my locker the following morning, I found Erica standing there waiting for me.
"Good morning," She chirped smirking. I could see the question she was asking in her eyes.
"Fine and yourself?" I asked grabbing my stuff for my next class.
"Peachy, how did your date with Isaac go?"
"Sh, not so loud."
"Geez, don't worry about people overhearing they can already tell by the way he looks at you."
Rolling my eyes, I began walking to class. Erica huffed matching my pace.
"He doesn't, okay he does, but it's-it's weird staring."
"I take that you are inexperienced in the dating field."
I winced, uncomfortable about the subject matter.
"Hey, chill, okay. I'll drop it. See you at lunch?" She stopped me outside my classroom.
I nodded thankfully.
"Hey, Erin, have an extra pencil by chance?"
Catapulting a pencil off my desk it hit him in the side and he caught it with ease.
"Trying to stab me?" He challenged sarcastic.
"You know it."
"I heard you studied with Lahey last night," Aiden deadpanned tapping his fingers on his desk with his head on the surface looking up at me.
"Gosh, I never knew that a person could make doing chemistry homework sound dirty," I admitted flipping my notebook open.
He laughed shaking his head.
After class, Aiden walked along side of me walking to get in line for what looked overcooked mystery meat. Lydia with Jackson in tow lined up behind us. I looked straight forward and not turning to converse with them like Aiden did. I had nothing against Lydia since I had never spoken to her in my life, but Jackson on the other hand I had a problem with. It might have been years ago when he sought me out to pick on me and push me around. When Jackson's best friend moved away I became invisible to him oddly. I was relieved that I never confronted him.
"So, Erin, how was your date with Isaac?" Lydia pressed trying to bring me into the conversation.
My heart raced, turning to them I stammered that it was fine. Lydia pushed for more details.
"I think I left something in my last class, excuse me," I stated fleeing the cafeteria.
Wandering aimlessly, I ended up in the empty art room with my sketchbook and the edible contents from my backpack. Opening a fresh page, sitting there with a pencil in my hand, I was hesitant of what to draw. Usually, I didn't have to think about it, my hand moved before my head could catch up. Frustrated that the one thing that was had been simple for me was now complicated, I blamed everything that was going on in my life now. My head on the table, I couldn't clear my head of worried thoughts.
Sensing her before I could smell her, Kate entered the room.
3rd POV
Isaac could feel her discomfort as his own. Picking up his pace, Boyd noticed the pained look on his face. Boyd was a man of few words to everyone excluding Erica of course, but he could easily identify Isaac's newfound anxiety when he wasn't around Erin. Boyd grabbed Isaac's arm bring him to a stop.
"Man, you've got to relax. If you want this to work you have to give her space and not crowd her. Remember she's new to this, all of it. Give it time, she'll come to you," Boyd suggested letting go of his friend.
"I know, but if I could do something to make her feel better. I have to, I can't ignore it. If it makes her happy for me to leave her alone, I will, but until she tells me herself, I won't stop, I can't," Isaac confessed continuing his way to his Erin.
Isaac's new primal urges had been set in stone when he had looked in her eyes. Now, she was all that he thought about, he hoped one day the same would go for her too. Isaac eased slightly when he felt her mood eased, but she was absent from the cafeteria. He could smell her sweet scent on Jackson, Lydia, and Aiden. Isaac held back a growl. God, he hated Aiden. His interest in his Erin is intolerable in Isaac's eyes.
"Geez, I could smell the testosterone from the hallway," Erica chimed in before greeting Boyd with a quick kiss on the cheek.
Isaac ignored her getting in line with the expression of a kicked puppy.
Sitting down farthest from Aiden, Isaac picked at his food listening to Stiles outlandish theories of what Kate's evil plans are. Feeling Erin's current frustration slowly turn in fear, he shot up alarmed.
Isaac stormed out of the cafeteria towards Erin, leaving the pack and the rest of the student body wondering what just happened.
