I do not own Teen Wolf. I only own Tiffani.

Story Start

"What happened?" Tiffani asked as she just in time caught Derek before he face planted in the hallway. "Derek," she said softly when she heard how pained his breathing was.

"We have to get him out of here, people are staring," Stiles said as she fidgeted beside the pair.

"Fine, give me your keys," she said as she held out a free hand, while holding Derek up against her with the other.

"I'm not giving you my keys," Stiles immediately said as he remembered how she enjoyed driving fast.

"Then you're coming with us," she snapped as she started helping Derek out of the school and to Stiles' jeep. She rolled her eyes as she heard her cousin protesting the whole time even though he got in the driver's seat after helping her put Derek in the back seat of his jeep.

The drive to Stiles' house was not short enough as Tiffani kept wondering if Derek was going to drop dead any second or not. She didn't want him to die, even though she was sure Stiles had other feelings on the matter. She made Stiles help her take Derek to the couch before she made him let her see his arm. She flinched at the sight of the black veins underneath the skin.

"Is there any way to relieve the pain?" she asked quietly as she used a rag that Stiles gave her to get the sweat off his brow.

"Wait, Scott can do this weird thing where he takes away the pain from someone else and takes it into himself," Stiles said with a snap of his fingers. He pulled out his cell phone to call Scott and scowled when Scott didn't answer right away.

"So I'm guessing that's a werewolf thing," Tiffani muttered as she wiped more sweat off of Derek's forehead. "Is he not answering?" she snapped when she saw Derek cringing more and more, he was even starting to bare his teeth and growl from the pain. "Give me just a moment," she snapped as she pulled out her own phone and called Allison. "Hey Allison, please give Scott the phone, I have something important to talk to him about and he's being a jerk and ignoring Stiles," she said as soon as Allison answered the phone.

"Hey Scott, glad you're ignoring us when we really need you. Derek was shot by a silver bullet and he's dying in our living room. We need you to steal one of the bullets from Allison's house tonight during your date because Derek said Allison's aunt was the one who shot him. He told us this when we were driving back home from school. Don't tell me you can't or give me any backtalk. Derek is dying and just because you and Stiles don't trust him, does not mean he is a bad guy. You are going to be brave, find that bullet, and get back here in time to save him or so help me, I will do something worse than just making Allison think you use male enhancement," Tiffani growled into the phone before hanging up and looking around the room to see Stiles and Derek both looking at her shocked.

"What?" she asked as she put away her phone. "He needs to get his head out of the clouds and help," she finished as she noticed Derek give a small smirk before the pain distracted him again.

"Scott just texted me that we should take him to the animal hospital, where he works, and wait for him there," Stiles said after reading a text message.

"If all else fails, what is your plan?" Tiffani asked Derek as they were helping him into the car.

"I'm going to cut my arm off," Derek said and he cursed when Stiles almost crashed the car because the news shocked him so much.

"All right, what about another option then?" Tiffani prompted and sighed when Derek gave her a look that said there were no other options. "Fine, you'll bleed to death from cutting off your arm, and then I'm going to become a murderer for killing Allison's aunt," she started ranting.

Her ranting was abruptly cut off when Derek grabbed her wrist and pulled her close to his face. "Stay away from Kate Argent and that family," he growled as his eyes flashed bright blue.

"Stay alive and I will, but if you die because of that bitch, then she's going to die or I'm going to die trying to kill her," Tiffani said back moving closer to his face and surprised him with another kiss before sitting back in her seat and ignoring the shocked looks from Stiles and Derek.

"Why did you kiss him again?" Stiles shouted as he pulled into a parking spot behind the animal hospital.

"Once again, same answer, because I wanted to," Tiffani said and smiled when she heard Derek give a small chuckle even though it was pained. She and Stiles helped him into the animal hospital with the key that Scott told them where it was hidden. Stiles was busy texting Scott while Tiffani just tried to keep Derek as comfortable as he could be. However, he wasn't too happy with her last joke. "If the alpha had bitten me, then I could at least help take away some of the pain," she said and yelped as he trapped her between him and the counter.

"Don't even joke about that beast biting you," he growled and he couldn't help but smirk a bit when she shivered because of his growl and how close they were.

"Guys, he got the bullet," Stiles shouted before yelping when he saw how close they were. "Don't you dare kiss him again," he yelped when he saw the look his cousin was giving Derek.

"Ruin the fun," Tiffani said with a pout and smiled again when she heard Derek chuckle.
