Waking up was interesting. Why is it so hot in here? I found my answer as I rolled over, or tried, I rolled right into a sleeping Isaac. On my other side Erica was sound asleep as well, both curling up against me. I sighed and tried to get up only to be pulled back by a very strong asleep Isaac. Note to self: don't watch scary movies with the betas before bed.

And that's when I heard snickers. Great just when I thought this couldn't get worse, Hale walks in only to laugh at us, well me.

"I was looking for Erica and Isaac, but they weren't in their rooms. I thought I'd ask if you'd seen them, but no worries I found them."

I glared at Derek before snapping up, grabbing his arm and pulling him into the puppy pile too. He landed in between Erica and I and he glared at me. I smiled innocently before snickering at him myself. At that moment, Erica and Isaac decided to push us closer, and cuddle some more. I ended up pressed against Derek, with Isaac snuggled into my back and his arms around me, Erica was doing the same with Derek.

'I am so killing these pups once they wake up. Then I'll kill the Luna, it's her fault I'm in this mess to begin with!'

I smirked, "I prefer puppy pile personally, and it's your fault you're here. Karma's a bitch huh?"

He growled at me. Ok it's probably not the time or place, since we are being cuddled to death by the two betas but Derek is even more sexy when he growls at me. Yep, I'm falling for hottie Hale. My life got even more complicated, if that's possible. I drifted back to sleep with Derek's heartbeat lulling me. And with him being the kind alpha he is, he didn't wake his betas, and he didn't escape the puppy pile.

When I woke up again, I was surprised to find that it was already lunch time. Thank all that is good that its a weekend. My parents will find a way to kill me if I miss more school. I get up and get changed into jeans, and a semi-tight crop top that shows the bottom of my stomach when I move. As I leave my room to go downstairs I hear Erica and Isaac arguing about what show they should watch, and I hear Derek sigh. Huh, with werewolf hearing you can almost hear Derek's eyes roll. I smile at that thought as I enter the living room, and snatch the remote from Isaac and Erica. I change the channel to play cartoons. Not those new stupid ones that cause kids brains to explode from watching them, god I hate those, but those classics like Scooby Doo and the loony toons. Tom and Jerry was currently playing and the two betas stopped fighting to watch as Jerry got the cheese and the grand piano fell on Tom.

'I am thankful that the arguing is over, finally, but how is it that Brittney can control the betas? She almost seems like their mom, except for how she dresses.'

I roll my eyes at his thoughts and go to make sandwiches for my pack. "Hale, get in here and help carry lunch to your pack." I yelled to him as I finished prepping the food and drinks.

Derek came in after about a minute and I handed him 2 sandwiches, some chips, and 2 sodas.

I pointed to one then the other, "Erica's, Isaac's. Don't confuse them."

After an eye roll, and me sticking my tongue out at him, childish, maybe, entertaining, definitely, I gathered the other sandwiches, sodas and chips and took them to the living room. I handed Derek his food, Isaac and Erica both had theirs already, and I sat in between the two betas. Derek looks like he's gonna steal my recliner permanently. He sits in it often enough.

"So what's on the agenda for today?" I asked Derek curiously as we ate.

"Well I found another pack member, course you would already know that if you had bothered waking up before noon," he smirked at me.

I growled lowly at him, "let me guess, you think that Scott isn't going to be thrilled that you're building our pack, so you think that he's gonna go to the ice rink to talk Boyd out of getting the bite, which you already gave him, while his friend Stiles goes to Boyd's house to see if he's there. You plan on sending Erica to Boyd's place to take care of Stiles, while you, Isaac, and I wait for Scott to get to the rink before we fight him and meet back up with Erica."

Ha take that Hale! You look so confused right now :p . Derek studies me for a minute while Isaac and Erica watch me with an amazed look on their faces.

"I guess you really can read minds," he said in an unidentifiable tone.

I roll my eyes and clean up the now empty plates, soda cans, and chip bags while the two betas get back to their show.

Derek follows me into the kitchen, "hey, can Boyd crash here for a couple nights while he adjusts?"

I glance up, "of course he can. He's part of the pack, which makes him part of this very weird family. Family is always welcome here."

Derek looks unamused, "if this pack is family, and family is always welcome here then why were you saying just yesterday that you weren't sure if I was welcome here, even though I'm part of the pack too?"

Oh silly silly Hale. I was kidding of course , but this opportunity is to good to pass up. I have to mess with him at least a little.

"Well, you are family, but you're like that crazy cousin that you're not sure if you're related to or not. That one cousin that no one admits that they don't want to be at family reunions or weddings etc." I said it in a serious voice, with a serious face.

I ruined the act when his face looked disappointed, and angry, I just had to laugh at that face. Of course my laughing caused him to realize that it was a joke, and it made him look like he was about to murder me. Well this isn't good. I'd probably better run now.

I quickly ducked as he reached to grab me, and I took off into the living room diving onto the couch hiding behind the two betas. Isaac and Erica were both trying not to laugh as I hid, and Derek came in looking to kill me. They failed once they saw the look of anger on his face and the look of fear on mine. Derek darted over to me, pinned me down and started tickling me! He has some nerve to tickle me! This means war! I started squirming and laughing, and begging for mercy.

He wasn't having it, he tickled me relentlessly until I cried for help from Erica and Isaac. He glanced up at them for a second, letting me try and tickle him back. Damn Hale! Why aren't you ticklish! It so isn't fair! I gave up on that idea quickly and bridged my hips throwing him off balance enough so I could roll him off, and get away.

"Don't you think we ought to get to the ice rink before Scott does? I think I'll run over there. Erica I'll see you later, good luck in your adventures." I said quickly before grabbing shoes and darting out the door.
