Shout out to Bre for reviewing! Yay, you found another fic of mine :D Glad you like it :) Very slight Breakfast Club theme to this chapter, not really sure why I went the way I did with it but hope you like it :)
Cora's p.o.v
You dickbag Derek. You absolute dick. I knew he was far too cool with what happened. Turns out, all of our parents were. We were grounded, but that's about it. No yelling or scowling as they usually would. And we come to school and that's when we're hit with it. We have to spend Saturday with Ms Shinro in the library for waging school. Studying. On a Saturday. All Saturday. 8:30am-3pm. I might kill Derek. I still don't even know how he found out. The school wouldn't have called him. And he wouldn't call them for no reason.
So here we are. Saturday. Sitting in the library, workbooks and worksheets scattered around us. Mathematical equations, literature, biological science examplurs and exam-based questions lay around me on my table. That's right, my table. We're all put at a table each. Not close enough to lean over and talk either. Scott and I could talk given our werewolf hearing but Ms Shinro is watching us like a hawk. I groan to myself, resting my head in my hands. I don't even know this teacher but I already don't like her. She stands up, all of us turning towards her.
"I will return in 5 minutes. Do not talk, do not look around the room, just work" she says firmly. She eyes each one of us before walking out. The second the door closes, I groan loudly.
"This sucks" Lydia says, all of us getting up. We all go and sit down at Lydia's table.
"Tell me about it. I don't know how to do any of that crap" I say, motioning to the pages scattered over my table. "You know what?" I say, pulling my phone out. "I'm calling Derek"
"To pick us up?" Stiles asks hopefully.
"No, he wouldn't. But I can give him an earful" I say. I ring his phone, putting mine on speaker.
"Cora" Derek sighs. "Detention means no phones if I remember correctly"
"Derek, please come pick us up" Stiles pleads.
"What? Who's with you?" Derek asks.
"All 4 of us. Ms Shinro's gone for awhile" I tell him. "You can be a real dick you know? I thought your punishment was enough, now this crap?" I say.
"Well maybe next time you won't wag class" Derek sneers.
"It was actually the whole day, we never made it to school" Stiles says. We all turn to him with 'really?' faces. "Oh, uh..just come get us" Stiles says.
"I should kill you Stiles, it was your idea" Derek says.
"No, it was my idea" I correct him.
"You're all still to blame" Derek says. "Now, go back to doing whatever and i'll be at the school at 3 to take you all home" Derek says before hanging up.
"That douche" I say, only hearing a dialtone. I hang up with a sigh.
"I don't know how much longer I can sit here" Scott says. It's been 3 hours and holy crap..we're so bored.
"Let's just leave" Stiles says.
"No" Lydia says, pointing at him. "Listening to your criminal plans is what got us into this mess in the first place" Lydia says half-heartedly.
"Someone told Derek too" I say. "They must of, he can't have just known"
"Noone else saw us, I didn't tell anyone" Scott says. We all agree we didn't say anything to anyone else.
"When I find out who, i'm going to kill them" Lydia says sassily. I grin, it's strange hearing such a threat come out of her mouth. "I have definitely been hanging out with you 3 too much" she chuckles, realising too. My ears perk up when I hear footsteps.
"She's coming back" Scott says, hearing it too. We scramble to our own seats, pretending to be busy. She comes back in, eyes instantly studyng us. She takes her place at the front of the class again. 3 hours down..3 and a half to go.
..
I slam the camaro door shut angerily, glaring at Derek. He doesn't meet my eyes, pulling out of the school. I keep my eyes on him, trying to burn a hole into his head with my heavy gaze.
"Can I help you Cora?" Derek asks, still looking at the road.
"No, i'm just trying to psychologically kill you" I say. Scott, Lydia and Stiles look at each other awkwardly, feeling the tension between Derek and I.
"You dug that hole yourself Cora, don't try to make me feel bad for your punishment" he shrugs.
"You could have warned us at least. I was actually have an alright day until Principal Dickhead came in and gave us the good news" I say.
"No sympathy from me" Derek says, pulling up outside Lydia's.
"Thanks" Lydia says to Derek, getting out of the car. "See you Monday" she says to me and I nod back. The redhead goes inside and Derek drives towards Stiles' next. Same thing, he gets out and thanks Derek, saying he'll see me Monday. We pull up outside Scott's and he moves to get out. He pauses when he sees the black undercover police car in his driveway. Derek sighs and turns to Scott.
"Will you be okay?" he asks Scott. Scott gives him a small smile.
"Yeah, thanks" Scott says. I cringe at how unbelievable that sounded. "I'll be okay" Scott assures us. He glances at the car again before getting out. I reach for my door, frowning with worry. Derek catches my arm, shaking his head.
"2 minutes?" I plead, bringing out the puppy dog eyes and everything.
"1" Derek says, letting me go. That always works. I smile and get out, closing the door and leaning againist it. Scott stays by the car. It's obvious he doesn't want to go inside.
"You sure you'll be alright?" I ask him. He nods.
"Yeah..just not in the mood to be yelled at after the day we've had" Scott says, smiling sadly.
"The offer still stands Scott, if you can't stay here then our door's always open" I say. I know i'm 'grounded' or whatever but even Derek wouldn't make Scott stay there if he didn't want to be around his Dad. Scott nods and comes forward, pulling me into a hug. "If it's late and you don't wanna come in the door, come to my window, i'll be up" I whisper to his ear, bringing my arms around his back.
"Thanks Cora" Scott sighs. We pull back and Scott kisses me quickly. "I might see you later" he says.
"Okay, bye Scott" I smile. He returns it before heading for his house. I wait until he's inside before getting back into the car.
"He okay?" Derek asks, looking at me. I lean my head againist the door, slumping in my seat.
"He says he is but I don't think he is" I sigh. Derek frowns at my change in attitude. I worry about Scott sometimes. I know him and his Mum have a close relationship and Melissa has tried her hardest with Scott but it seems since Rafael's been back..things are changing. And it's affecting Scott, and he's important to me so it's effecting me as well. Not in the same way but still. Derek drives off, the rest of the car ride is silent. No snark or insults, just quiet.
..
I go into the bathroom. I change into a baggy tee and throw my pants to the floor. I brush my teeth quickly before walking back into my room, stretching and yawning, ready for bed.
"I could get used to this" I jump a little in suprise at Scott's voice. He grins at me, looking at my choice of outfit. "Since when did you wear that to bed?" Scott asks.
"Shut up" I chuckle. I go and sit down on the bed next to him. "What happened?" I ask him.
"Dad found out about me skipping school..he wasn't happy" he tells me. "Mum was at work anyway so I came here..Derek let me in" he says. "I feel bad about doing this" he sighs.
"What do you mean?" I ask him.
"I keep running off, turning up here. It's not fair to you or Derek" Scott says.
"We don't mind Scott, I promise. If Derek did, he wouldn't hesitate to tell you, you know how he is" I say. Scott smiles a little and nods. "Besides, I like it when you stay" I say.
"Really?" Scott asks.
"Really" I smile. "I like sharing my bed with you" I say, making the alpha grin.
"I like sharing your bed with you" he says, touching his lips to mine. I bring my hand up behind his neck, kissing him back. He moves his mouth to neck, raspberrying againist it. I'm suprised by the giggle that brings from my mouth. Scott must be too because he does it again, getting the same result.
"Okay, okay, stop" I say, smiling. Scott pulls back, smiling softly. "So you're staying?" I ask him.
"If you don't mind" Scott says.
"I don't mind" I smile. I move, getting in bed. I look at him expectantly. He smiles to himself, moving and getting in as well. "You're here so much, you may as well move in" I joke. Scott kisses my head.
"Don't tempt me" he says with an adorably shy smile.
"No, your Mom would miss you" I say.
"I know" he nods. "I'd miss her too" he admits. We fall into a comfortable silence. I take Scott's hand over the blanket, playing with his fingers with mine. Scott's eyebrows burrow and he looks at me. "What's wrong?" he asks.
"It's nothing, don't worry" I assure him.
"Cora" Scott says.
"I..I miss my Mom" I say quietly. Scott's leans his head againist mine.
"I know you do" he says, threading his fingers through mine. "I bet she misses you too" I smile at his comfort.
"I think she would have really liked you" I say. "She'd definitey be impressed with the whole true alpha thing" I chuckle. Scott joins in too. "You know I really like you as well, right?"
"I know" he smiles. "I really like you too" he says softly. I smile. "You know, I had an idea" he starts. "We haven't had a pack meeting in awhile because things have been quiet, it's a good thing. But, it means we haven't been having the pack time we usually would, not with all of us together"
"So what are you thinking?" I ask Scott.
"Monday after school..hopefully we're not grounded anymore, we have a bonfire down on the beach. We go down to the private part, spend the night. We've got no school on Tuesday so it wouldn't be a problem" he says.
"That's a good idea, it'll bring the whole pack together" I say, nodding in agreement.
"Okay, it's final then. I'll send out a group text tomorrow, see who will come" Scott says. "I'll talk to Derek tomorrow"
"And we should sort of tell him.." I say.
"Oh. About us?" he asks and I nod. "Think he'll be mad at me?"
"No, why would you think that?" I ask him.
"He wasn't exactly accepting in the beginning" Scott says awkwardly.
"But he's okay now" I smile. "We'll tell him together in the morning"
"Okay" Scott smiles.
"I need sleep. Goodnight Scott" I yawn.
"G'night Cora" Scott says.
