Okay this is it Meg reminded herself mentally. It was the day her and the rest of her pack has been planning.
The day we taken down Derek.
She looked to Erica from the corner of her eye. Her blonde friend stood by the train but she felt Meg's stare and their gazes met, they nodded signalling the ready. Derek was unsuspecting and emerged from within his space in the train and out into the station in his usual white wife beater and blue jeans and broad dominating walk.
"Alright let's get started." Derek stated looking to Isaac who sat by the stair case trying to be inconspicuous. He stood at the Alpha's commanded and walked over to the opposite end of long space, facing Derek. When the leader gave the nod Isaac attacked. What Derek wasn't expecting was Boyd to join Isaac in the charge.
The alpha was surprised when Isaac swung at him. He dodged in time only to be tackled by Boyd. They fell to the floor and before Boyd should restrain him Derek brought his knees to his chest and pushed the heavy teen over his body before jumping to his feet. Isaac attacked again but Derek was faster and tossed the blonde male a side like he was a sac of onions. Isaac went flying to the left, skidding against the concrete.
Erica pounced without a moment of hesitation. Derek took steps back to evade the long nails that swiped at his face. To stop the attack he grabbed her wrists and squeezed hard. Erica yelped from the pain which gave Derek the opportunity to wrap one calloused hand around her neck and toss her aside.
Derek gasped in pain when claws scratched at his abdomen, drawing blood. It was Meg, he hadn't even heard her approach him since he was busy throwing Erica. Derek quickly moved back as she fought harder, her arms working fast and cutting through the air to get to him. He watched the calm expression on Meg's face. Though beads of sweat littered her forehead, she was focused, Derek was pleased. He quickly caught one of Meg's wrist mid air, startling her. He smirked and just when he was about attack. Isaac's fist came hurdling at him from the left, he scowled and let go of Meg to avoid Isaac's attack
Isaac groaned when his back hit the concrete again, right next to Meg who was flinching from the impact of her rear-end against such a hard surface. Derek towered over them, with Boyd on the floor behind him, the alpha smirked.
"Good, but not good enough."
"NOW!" Meg suddenly exclaimed and launched at him.
Before Derek could get a chance to respond Meg had hurdled her body against his long legs, causing him to lose his balance. Derek attempted to prevent himself from falling but Boyd was already on his feet and pushed Derek to the ground. He made impact with the cement, face first.
"SIT ON HIM!" Meg screamed again. Derek grunted when four separate weights climbed on to his back, suppressing him from moving.
"Get off me!" He growled struggling under them, but the weight wouldn't budge.
"Say uncle." Meg demanded from her seat on his shoulder blade, staring down at him.
"Are you kidding me?"
"We are sitting on you man, do we look like we are kidding?" Isaac stated while sitting on the back of the alpha's thighs. Body was beside Isaac and Erica was beside Body, next to Meg.
"Say it!" Meg exclaimed.
"No."
"Say it!"
"NO."
"Fine…we will just sit right here, hey Isaac you should order some pizza we can just pull up that table and just eat." She suggested looking to her blonde male friend, Isaac smiled.
"Oh great we can use my iPad as means of entertainment." Boyd stated grinning.
"You have an iPad?"Erica whispered impressed, Boyd blushed.
"Pfft, so overrated." Isaac muttered under his breath, the other male frowned.
"You say that because you have a Nokia 3310" He taunted, Meg gasped.
"Dude that phone is indestructible." She stated in awe.
"No it isn't 9gag exaggerates." Boyd retorted with a flat look.
"Boyd's right it isn't indestructible, only the fires of Mordor can destroy it." Meg informed almost factually, earning a chuckle from Isaac.
"That and a volcano—"
"WILL YOU FOUR IDIOTS GET OFF?!" Derek cut Isaac off with his impatient and abrupt yell. They all looked down at the alpha they sat on with startled looks.
"Oh hey Derek, we forgot about you for a second." Meg muttered under her breath, all smiles. Derek only wished the glare he was giving them could kill…or just facing them at least.
"I swear when I get out of this, you will all pay." He swore under his breath, the rest of his pack exchanged shifty glances before Meg began to chuckle nervously under her breath.
"He is bluffing…right?" Isaac, Boyd and Erica shrugged dubiously.
"So Derek seemed pretty pissed…" Meg pondered out loud as the rest of her pack escorted her back home, to the abandoned railway station. When they had eventually gotten off Derek they all made a run for the exit to allow the alpha a few hours too cool off.
"He'll get over it eventually." Erica muttered bumping her shoulder against her small dark haired friend who scowled up at them.
"Easy for you to say, you are not the one who is living with him. If you don't see me in class tomorrow, please start searching for me in the bottom of the river." She muttered under her breath. Isaac laughed and threw and arm over her shoulders, hugging her to his side.
"We will probably be running to Alaska, considering we are next." He stated catching the rest of their gazes. This sparked Meg's interest.
"Oh Alaska, can I come?"
"You will be dead, remember?" Boyd reminded causing her to pout.
"Oh yeah right…How sad."
"You can tell we are all torn up." Erica noted smiling snidely. Meg frowned which only made the blonde's smile broaden.
"Well we are off, see you small stuff." Isaac said, releasing Meg after they had escorted her close to the steel doors that lead to the stairs. Meg turned to face them with a plastic bag in her grip and a big smile on her face.
"Bye you guys!" She said as Boyd opened the door for her and closed it behind her.
"Mr. Grumpy Growls you there?" She called out hesitantly. She walked closer to the train slowly Meg peaked her head into the doors of the train with a queasy smile and a bag of food she uttered.
"I brought Chinese…"
"You are lucky I had time to cool off." Derek's deep voice from behind her startling her. She spun around to face him, hugging the back to her chest.
"Yeah that's kinda why we left a trail of dust when we ran away as fast as we could." His pale eyes narrowed down at her, taking a step towards her, his tall body looming over hers.
"You wouldn't be able to stay safe from the stunt you pulled." Meg resisted the urge to gulp under the threat of his words. She chuckled nervously.
"Hey how would you know if I am the one who orchestrated it?" Derek gave her a flat look and crossed his bare arms over his chest.
"Considering you all sat on me, I have a pretty good guess it was you." He stated coaxing a sheepish smile from her.
"Look on the bright side, we all worked together, isn't that what you wanted?" She inquired shift her weight from one leg to the other almost bashfully. Derek dropped his arms to the side while staring at her silently. He surprised her again by stepping closer and leaning towards her. Meg took a step back on instinct only to bump against the doors behind her.
"How would you know what I want?" He asked with a husky murmur to his voice, Meg tried not to shudder.
"Um…good guess?" He didn't seem convinced though a smirk pinched at the corner of his lips, his pale eyes glittering.
"What else do you think I want?" He breathed. Meg contemplated his words for a moment while trying not to get lost in his silver eyes or admire his handsome face for too long. She brought up the bag she was hugging to his chest and practically shoved it in his face.
"Chinese?" She asked shamefaced.
"I am hungry." He said after a moment. He grabbed the bag from her hands and turning around to head to their make shift table.
"Yeah, being sat on is quite the work out." Meg stated after him, he froze and shot her a glare over his shoulder.
"You are walking on thin ice, Day." He warned she smiled mirthfully while casually walking towards him.
"I'll try not to fall in, Hale." She teased her shoulder brushing against his. Derek stared after almost entranced, and Meg continued to smile up at him until she was suddenly reminded of something.
"Oh I got complementary fortune cookies too!" She exclaimed pulling out a smaller plastic bag from within the recess of her jersey pockets and holding it out to him. Derek looked down at the small parcel in her hands before raising his gaze to meet hers.
"You don't really believe in that stuff, do you?"
"What…they are fun? Oh wait, you are incapable of having fun."
"I have fun. We both have very different definitions remember."
"Yeah I remember, let's eat I am starving."
"Fortune cookie time!" Meg exclaimed just as Derek placed his empty carton of noodles on the floor. He watched her all smiles and breaking the pastry in half before pulling out the small strip of paper and beginning to read it.
"Change is happening in your life, so go with the flow." She read then huffed and crumpled the piece of paper in her grip.
"Pfft no kidding right, what does yours say?" She asked looking to Derek who dead-panned.
"I am not doing this." He grumbled glaring down at the fortune cookie on the floor beside him.
"Oh come on!"
"No."
"Please...what could it hurt?" Unable to resist her puppy dog stare—despite him—Derek picked up the cookie hesitantly broke and then pulled out the rolled up piece of paper.
"Well…what does it say?" Meg asked eagerly.
"It's stupid."
"Read it, please." Sighing under his breath Derek began to read out loud.
"To the world you might be one person, but to one person you are the world." He snorted while rolling his pale eyes before grumbling"These things are never right,"
"I wouldn't say that," He was surprised by her words. Derek's gaze instantly fell on to Meg who's eyes were as wide as saucers and shocked by the own words that left her mouth. There was a moment of awkward silence before she grinning and tittered nervously.
"Oh wow look at the time, I better go brush my teeth and head off to bed." She exclaimed giving a glance down at her wrist watch before jumping to her feet and turning away, before she left she spun back around to face Derek, giving him a shy smile.
"Sweet dreams, Derek." She said, not waiting for a reply Meg began to walk towards the bathroom.
"Good night." Her keen ears picked up his soft reply. Her smile widened and her blush deepened and she resisted the urge to skip to the toilets.
Derek stared after her, his heart pounding in his chest from the look he had witnessed in her eyes. That fawn-like gaze that was full of vulnerability and glittering in admiration, he wanted to see that look again. He glanced down at the crumpled piece of paper in his hands before clenching his fist with a small smile playing at his lips.
