Walking into my living room I saw that everyone was sitting down, ready for me to give them my news. Standing in the doorway I took a deep breath and faced everyone, wanting to get this over with.
"I'm leaving for England to go to school there in a week or two." That was easier than I thought. Well at least I thought so until all hell broke out.
"You can't be serious."
"Why? How?"
"Finally!" Guess who sad that.
"No." Looking at Derek after he said his one word, I knew that I had hurt him again. His face was like stone, staring at the ground with determination.
"I have to Derek. Scott don't say a word. Look, I have to go because I found something out lately and if I don't a lot of bad stuff could happen." That got everyone's attention. With all eyes on me I decided to continue. "My dad got a letter recently from someone in England who knew my mom. She said there is a war going on and if I don't get trained, I could be in danger."
"Ok, and the million dollar question is going to be, if you don't get trained for what?" Erica, is once again, a very smart girl.
"That is the reason Allison, Lydia and I were gone today and why I was driving around last night. I wanted to be sure that it was real before,"
"Big head! Stop babbling and answer." I decided to just stare at Jackson for interrupting me. He had no right, even though he was right, it still wasn't right to call me a big head. Derek growled for Jackson to stop and looked at me to continue.
"I'm a wizard." Blank stares.

"Still in shock mode?" I looked over to Allison and Lydia hoping they could help. Instead of saying anything Allison hit Scott's head and Lydia did the same to Jackson. That got Jackson to react.
"This is just great! You are horrible with jokes." With that Jackson started laughing. Slowly all of the wolves broke out into laughter.
Not wanting to keep them from their good time, I turned around and started to walk outside. It was almost midnight, so of course, it was dark outside. Walking down the street I made sure I was under the light post so I would be able to see. Not expecting anyone to follow me, I screamed when an arm reached out and grabbed me. Turning around I stared at my attackers eyes waiting for words to come.

Staring down at me Derek finally said, "You're serious aren't you? How the hell did you become a wizard?"
"Well I guess I always was, but my powers were bond and I had to claim a wand for my full powers to come into effect. Do you actually believe me or is this just some game of 'let's just go along with everything Stiles says until we get him into a mental institution' thing?" Smiling, Derek leaned down to kiss me.
"If anything, I should be in an institution, not you. Also, I know you couldn't make up something like this. The truth can always be told by looking at your eyes." He reached up and placed his hand on my cheek. "Your eyes speak more than anything."
"Aww, Derek, bad wolf Alpha with no emotions, likes my eyes…" I had more fun making to say but Derek crushed my lips with his. We stayed like that under the lamp post for a few minutes, just making out. Derek taking the lead placed his hand back to his normal spot behind my neck to pull me closer, while the other was place on my back. He slowly started to move his hand under my shirt touching my skin, keeping it moving up and down, wanting to feel more. Emotions were on high. I didn't even remember where we were until Derek howled angrily at something. I opened my eyes, not realizing I had closed them, and saw I was standing behind Derek with him covering me completely. Moving slightly to the side I looked at Derek and saw him holding an arrow that was aimed for his heart.
"You must be Hale." A man came from the shadows, walking towards us with a bow in his hand. He was wearing all black with a baseball cap on. "I never knew you had yourself a mate. This could make things interesting." With a smirk on his face, the man took another step forward. He was about to take another, until growling from all around us kept him frozen on the spot. I looked behind me and saw the pack watching the man as they moved to flank Derek. Getting annoyed, I looked at the man, watching for any movement as I tried to take the only one step Derek will allow me.
"Who are you?" I asked, wanting to get this over with so I can go home and get to bed. Oh crap, it's a school night. Life can't get any worse.
"Allison Argent? Is that really you?" I shouldn't say these things. I turned and saw Allison glaring at the man in front of us. She definitely knew him. "I never knew you would turn out to be a traitor to humans by running around with abominations."
"Travis, just get out of here now before I kill you myself." Allison took her place in front of the pack, staring the man down, daring him to move forward. The man, Travis, just turned around and headed back to his SUV. Stopping at the driver's side door, the man said, "I hope you know what you are doing. With a mate, things are going to get out of hand. I'll see you at home." He got in his vehicle and took off with a screeched down the road.
Allison turned around to face us, red face full of anger. "I am soo sorry I didn't tell you guys about this. I didn't know it was going to happen so fast." Derek made a low snarl that had Allison answering the unasked question. "Gerard spoke about the possibility of having a new family of hunters move into town to help out with the werewolf situation. I didn't know they were going to move into town today. I thought it would be a few months before anything would happen."
Derek moved forward so he could face everyone, but he still didn't want to let me go, so we settled with holding hands. Pinching the bridge of his nose, such a Derek move, he began to order everyone around. "Allison, your family is going to know you are helping us now. Either you be very convincing or you get yourself to safety at Lydia's. Scott, stay over at Jacksons tonight and Boyd and Isaac go to Erica's. I will stay with Stiles. No one is to be by themselves at all no matter what. If a new pack is in town, then we can expect a fight." Turing towards me Derek asked, "Is there any way you can get to the new school now so you stay out of trouble?"
"I have no idea, but I can mail them and ask, but are you sure you want me to leave right away? I could help."
Jackson stated to laugh beside me. "You help? What can you actually do? If you go, then the real men can handle this situation. You can go to your make believe"
"It is not a make believe school Jackson! Hogwarts is real and I am a wizard. I might not be able to fight like you can, but I can help. I am not a useless person in a pack of fairy tale creatures!" With that, once again, I took off away from the pack. After a few steps, I stopped and realized I forgot something. How can I be so stupid? I went back to the group and grabbed Derek's hand. Getting what I needed, I turned back around and marched off with Derek following in step. I might not be the Alpha, but Derek is going to be with me tonight, no matter what anyone else says. I have made up my mind, and he is staying tonight, end of discussion.
Walking through my front door I saw my dad standing off into the kitchen. "Son, Derek can't"
"He is staying end of discussion." I continued my march with Derek in hand until I closed my door to my bedroom. I stopped dead in my tracks and looked up to meet Derek's eyes. "Did I really just say that to my dad?" Derek just nodded with a smirk on his face.
"Stiles Stilinski, get your ass down here now!" And now I am grounded.
