Chapter 10
Derek looked at the blonde sleeping peacefully curled up next to him. Her head was resting on his shoulder as that arm was draped around Gaby's small frame. His phone vibrated causing his attention to tear away from the sleeping girl. Erica texted him saying she was going to go pick up Jackson and would be at the abandoned station in thirty minutes.
He gently shifted the blonde off of him and onto the pillow he was leaning against. Hopefully testing Jackson wouldn't take too long and he could get back to her, but Derek needed to be sure the Kanima was in fact Jackson.
Twenty minutes later the alpha pulled into the desolate station and moved to prepare the test for Jackson. He sat down patiently while Isaac stood near the door waiting for Erica to arrive with Jackson. Derek didn't even glance up when Erica's heels clicked against the wooden stairs. "What happened to you on the night of the full moon?" Derek asked still looking down.
"What?" Jackson asked him "Nothing. Nothing happened."
Derek looked up at him "You're lying."
The alpha reached for the black leather gloves sitting next to him and grabbed a piece of broken mirror. "No…" Jackson told him "No wait…I can prove it." Jackson struggled against Isaac and Erica's holds "I taped myself."
The three werewolves laughed at him. "You taped yourself?" Isaac asked him.
"Yes. It was the full moon. And maybe while you were curled up in the corner having some existential crisis about turning into a monster…or while Gaby was being a damsel in distress causing Derek to run to her rescue per usual, I was preparing for the so-called gift your guys' big bad alpha promised me, but what did I get? Nothing. You want proof let me get the video."
The look on Derek's face made Jackson realize he hit a nerve when he mentioned Gaby. Derek continued to look at him then shook his head "No," he showed Jackson the broken mirror "No I have a better idea."
"What is that?" Jackson asked him.
Isaac and Erica forced him onto his knees while Derek slowly walked up to him. Isaac forced his mouth open as Derek began speaking "You know Jackson, you've always been kind of a snake…and everyone knows a snake can't be poisoned by its own venom." Derek walked up to him and dropped a little bit of venom onto Jackson's tongue. As soon as he was released Jackson fell to the ground unable to move. Derek saw this and let out a sigh He kneeled in front of the paralyzed boy "You're still a snake Jackson, just not the one we're looking for." The alpha stood up and carefully set the mirror down and tore off his gloves "I'll be back sometime tomorrow make sure he gets home without too many injuries."
Derek stormed up the stairs and sped off in his Camaro towards Gaby's house. He quickly climbed through the window causing the blonde to stir. "Derek?" she asked sleepily.
"I had to take care of something, but I'm staying here now."
"What did you need to take care of?"
He quickly slipped into her bed "I'll tell you in the morning, but for now go back to sleep."
Gaby didn't argue she just nodded and curled up next to him. As soon as her head was resting on his chest Derek wrapped his arms around her and quickly fell asleep.
Gaby bit her lip trying to decide what to wear. She had on a pair of skinny jeans, but couldn't make up her mind on a top. The blonde heard Derek shift in his sleep and turned her head to look at him. He was sleeping peacefully it seemed like this was the most sleep he'd gotten since becoming the alpha.
She quickly grabbed a black sweater and walked over to him. Gaby gently climbed onto her bed and straddled Derek. He stirred and ran his hands up her thighs. The blonde smiled when his green orbs came into view "Good morning."
"Mhm…morning. What time is it?" He asked yawning.
"Almost eight, I need to leave here in a few minutes."
Derek grabbed her waist and pulled her down so she was lying next to him and the two were facing each other "Can you skip today?"
Gaby gave him a quick peck "I can skip the first part of my day, but I've got to be there for chemistry, history, calculus, and Biology."
Derek nodded "Just stay here and sleep."
The blonde adjusted the two of them so she was slightly behind him. She ran her hands through his hair "I'm going to call the school and tell them I have a doctor's appointment and I'll be there by fourth period."
After hanging up the phone she noticed Derek was almost asleep on her and his phone had moved from her bedside table to his hand. Gaby ran her fingers through his hair causing him to nuzzle into her stomach. She grabbed his phone and placed it back onto the table and closed her eyes allowing herself extra time with her mate.
Gaby parked her car in the school parking lot and hurried into the building. "Good morning Miss Myers," the familiar voice of Victoria Argent greeted her.
The blonde smiled "Good morning Mrs. Argent how's everything going?"
"Fine, how was your doctor's appointment?"
Gaby handed the note forged by Deaton "The usual, blood drawn, them telling me my anemia is still at large, and of course my favorite them telling me to quit cheer."
"Well everyone just wants you healthy."
"I've never stopped doing what I love to do because of this so why stop now?"
Mrs. Argent nodded as the bell rang "Fourth period just began."
"Thanks Mrs. Argent," Gaby smiled and made her way to her calculus class.
Gaby ran her hands through her blonde curls when she walked into her last class of the day before her free period. The blonde knew she was a few minutes late because her biology lab group had to clean up their lab station and would get hell from Harris. When she walked into the classroom she immediately spotted Isaac and Erica sitting next to each other and every guy had their hands raised in the air. She shot Scott and Stiles a confused look, which Stiles ignored. "Glad you could join us Miss Myers," Harris scoffed "Erica start with Mr. McCall." He put his hands on the desk right in front of him "Miss Myers you'll be here, start with…" Harris scanned the room before landing on Isaac "Mr. Lahey."
Gaby quickly moved to the lab table. As soon as she set her stuff down Isaac plopped into the seat next to her. "I see you're back in school," Gaby said beginning the experiment "How did you manage that?"
Isaac smirked at her "I just convinced Jackson to tell the Sheriff he didn't see my dad and I arguing and now I'm here."
"Hmm…did you hurt him?"
"Not too much, why do you care any way? I thought you hated the guy?"
"It's kinda hard to explain. I just don't want to see anyone get hurt."
Isaac stopped and looked at her slightly sniffing the air "Why do you smell like him?"
Gaby's eyes widened "What do you mean?"
The other werewolf's eyes narrowed "Derek…why do you smell like Derek?"
She watched as Scott and Erica's head snap over towards her. "I…" Gaby started before she was interrupted by Harris ringing a bell.
"Switch," Harris called out.
Gaby quickly gathered her materials and moved to the next station. She groaned when she saw it was Erica that she was sitting next to. "Huh," Erica said a second after the other blonde sat down "you do smell like Derek."
"Weird…" Gaby sighed "What are you guys doing here?"
"Well we go to school here…"
"I meant why is everyone on edge? What did you guys do?"
"We need to find out who the Kanima is. We tested Jackson last night and turns out he wasn't it."
Gaby nodded already knowing that piece of information. Derek had filled her in when she was getting ready for school the second time that morning. "So what's the problem? Who do you think it is now?"
"You're BFF Lydia."
Gaby froze "You're testing her? Why?"
"According to Derek she got bit by an Alpha and nothing happened to her so we're testing her to find out if it's true."
"And if it is?"
"We kill her," Erica smirked.
Gaby looked at her wide-eyed. Harris rang the bell again ending the session "And switch." The smaller blonde scurried over to the three person lab table next to Scott and Stiles.
"Why the hell are Erica and Isaac trying to kill Lydia?" she whispered finishing the experiment.
"You tell us," Stiles snapped.
"How should I know?" Gaby retorted.
"I just find it odd that you seemed pretty cozy with him at the beginning of the semester and now…you claim you can't even be in the same room as him, but two of his werewolves think you smell like him," Stiles scoffed.
Gaby shot Stiles a hurt look. Scott tilted his head in confusion "Isaac and Erica are right you do smell like Derek."
"Not here I'll tell you everything after school, but please not here," Gaby pleaded.
"Does this have something to do with Derek?" The blonde nodded. "Are you two like…together?" he whispered the last word so only the two of them could hear. Again, Gaby nodded her head.
"I promise," the blonde sighed "I will explain everything after school, but right now let's focus on keeping Lydia safe."
"How do we know you're not with them?" Stiles asked her.
"I'm not…I didn't know about him testing Jackson until after he had already done it and I certainly don't know about them testing Lydia especially the part about killing her." There was an awkward silence between the three of them, something that had never happened before. "I swear I had no idea about Lydia and if I knew about Jackson I would have stopped him before he did it. I want to protect Lydia."
"Time…" Harris called out "if you catalyzed the reaction correctly, you should now be looking at a crystal." The three looked into the beaker and looked at the perfectly formed crystal. "Now for the part of that last experiment I'm sure you'll all enjoy…you can eat it."
Scott pulled it out of the beaker and handed it to Gaby "Let's face it you're the only reason this was formed."
Gaby shook her head "Don't worry about it."
They turned towards Lydia and Isaac. Gaby and Scott squinted their eyes as a liquid substance dripped from the crystal. Lydia put it to her mouth, but before she could actually bite it Scott stood up yelling "Lydia!"
"What?" the redhead asked looking at him.
Scott sat back down "Nothing."
Everyone held their breath as Lydia took a bite of the crystal. Nothing happened to her as she finished eating the crystal. Scott gently nudged Gaby and nodded towards the window. The blonde locked eyes with Derek and for a brief second she felt fear run through her veins before he broke their contact and tilted his head towards the lacrosse field. Scott looked at her and she shook her head "I have no idea."
