…
Home at last. Although it didn't feel like it used to… I look around the foyer and flashes of what it looked like that night come into view. The blood on the walls, the crooked picture frames and even a bleeding version of myself lying on the staircase… I close my eyes tightly before opening them again and it's all back to normal again. I let out a breath before making my way to the kitchen. I must be slowly losing it.
"Bella!" Mel exclaims as I walk into the kitchen, "Are you sure the doctors are okay with you leaving?"
I flash a smile, "You know they'd do anything to get rid of me. I annoy the hell of out of them!" Mel chuckles and nods, "I know how they feel."
I feign hurt, "Mumma Mel how could you!"
She smiles at me, "I'm only teasing. Right well you should probably get upstairs for some more rest then."
I roll my eyes, "I just got out of that hospital bed and now you're making me get into another! Although a sleep in my own bed does sound good…" I listen in upstairs and hear a small shuffle and smile slightly knowing Derek is up there.
"Hold on, did Scott drop you off?" Mel asks. I nod, "Yeah he said he had work also so he couldn't get out of the car."
Mel nods in understanding, "Okay good. Now off you go, get some rest now."
I give her a small hug before leaving the kitchen and make my way up the stairs. As I stand just at the top of the stairs I look down each side of the hall picturing my blood staining the walls again. I shake my head and everything goes back to normal again. I look to my room and see Derek leaning against the doorframe watching me. I rush over to him as fast as a cripple can and quickly push him back into the room.
I shut the door and lean softly up against it, "Are you trying to get caught?"
He chuckles. Oh so he thinks this is funny! "I can hear your Aunt downstairs so she wouldn't have seen me."
I sit down on my bed and moan before lying down on it. I missed my bed. It was so much more comfortable than the hospital bed, "Mhm I've missed you bed." Derek clears his voice and I open one eye to look at him.
He's staring at me with raised eyebrows and I shrug, "What? I have." I stretch out my arm and try and snuggle deeper into the mattress. I was just so damn sore and this mattress was really comfy.
I hear Derek clear his throat again and I sigh in annoyance, "What now?" I look over to him and see a different look in his eyes. I can even sense the desire coming from him right now. I smirk deciding to have a little fun, "I'm sorry? Is this turning you on?"
He rolls his eyes, "Is this you trying to tease me?" I stand up and slowly walk over to him. I place my hand on his shoulder before running my finger across his chest a few times.
"Only if it's working…" I whisper in his ear. I feel his muscles ripple under my touch and I smirk again before pulling away and sitting back on the bed. I can see the longing in his eyes and it only makes me hate having my arm in a sling even more.
I sigh, "Right well as much as I want to keep teasing you I have something else we need to do."
Derek groans, "Really what could be more important!"
I chuckle at his reaction, "I really want to but I thought of a new way to find out what I am exactly… Well actually Scott thought of it."
"I thought we already said you could be a Fire Fairy?" Derek says as he sits down beside me. I nod, "Yeah I know but I just don't feel like Fairy. Is that a thing? Where I don't feel Fairy like?" I ask rhetorically
"Oh anyway what Scott suggested was that I talk to Deaton, his boss. He knows about supernatural stuff so he might know what I am," I finish.
Derek sighs, "Alright we'll go now then." I smile, "Okay good I'll meet you out the front. You have your car right?"
He nods in response, "Good. I'll just tell Mum I'm going to go hang out with Scott at work." Derek looks at me with raised eyebrows, "Will that work?"
I shrug, "I don't know but I guess we'll see."
…
The bell rings as Derek opens the door to the vet for me. I thank him softly and walk into the waiting area.
"Bella, it's good to see you're up and about. How are you feeling," Dr Deaton says as he walks out of the back room.
I smile at the vet, "A lot better, thank you. Uh did Scott say anything about me maybe coming to talk to you?"
Deaton smiles knowingly, "He did mention it. I've got the Sheriff out the back here too so I'll be with you in a moment."
I freeze up. What would John do if he saw me and Derek together?! "Bella you out there?" I hear him call out. Shit here he comes! I use my good arm to motion for Derek to sit down but instead he's forced into his chair by an invisible force. I look down at my hand with wide eyes. Did I do that?
Derek looks to me with wide eyes also and then down to himself as he is now sitting in a chair when it was only two seconds ago that he was standing right next to me.
"I didn't think Melissa would let you out of the house?" John jokes as he comes into view. I chuckle nervously, "I know I'm surprised I wasn't tackled as I was leaving the house."
John laughs, "Right well I better get back to work. I'll come pick the dog up tomorrow Doc." Deaton smiles and nods, "Of course, I'll see you tomorrow."
I smile and wave as John is about to leave but it was too good to be true.
"Derek, what're you doing here?"
Shit! You're picking up your cat. Picking up your cat!
Derek clears his throat, "I'm here to pick up my cat…"
John nods and seems to accept his answer, "See you later guys." The bell rings at the front and I let out a sigh of relief.
"How about you two come out the back now," Deaton says and he opens the little gate out to the back. I turn to Derek and hold out my hand for him. He grabs a hold of it and we follow Deaton out the back.
"Bella I didn't think you were coming so soon," Scott says when he comes out of the Cat Clinic. I nod slowly, "Yeah but I really need to find out what I am."
"Scott's told me you have some theories Derek," Deaton says looking directly at Derek.
Derek nods, "Yeah, my mother told us stories of different fairies when we were younger. I think that Bella might be a Fire Fairy. But what she just did there I don't understand?"
Scott looks confused, "What did she do?"
"I panicked when I heard the Sheriff! I thought he was gonna catch me and Derek together so I used my hand to motion him to sit down but I somehow forced him to sit down myself," I explain getting confused myself. How was that possible? Could I move objects and people without having to have a hold of them now?
"I saw it too. It's like a telekinesis ability which very powerful Fire Fairies can have," Deaton says and Derek looks at me pointedly. I roll my eyes as Deaton continues, "And it seems quite likely you being a Fire Fairy from what I've been told. Have you turned yet?"
I look at him confused, "Turned? You mean have my eyes changed colour? They change to an orange colour when I get angry…"
Deaton nods, "Hmm that is interesting. I think that if you get angry enough you could potentially turn and show your true character or in this case true supernatural being..."
"So I have to get angry? That should be easy enough since I've been having trouble keeping my anger in check," I say.
Deaton nods slowly, "Well making you turn shouldn't be too hard then. But the thing is you need to be able to control that anger once you turn-"
I nod cutting him off, "Okay control my anger once I turn, got it."
"Because if you don't control your anger then it could take over and, if you are a Fire Fairy, you could turn dark…" Deaton finishes explaining.
I let out a shaky breath, "Fantastic…"
…
I storm back into the house Derek hot on my heels. Mumma Mel had already left for work getting a lift from another nurse. I walk into the kitchen and find the note she left for me saying to call her if I needed anything and make sure Stiles or Scott were with her. I rip up the note angrily and storm up to my room as Derek follows me still.
I let out a scream in frustration and throw my arm up in the air. It would really be more affective if I had both my arms to throw up in frustration but this damn sling is still on! I pace back and forth in my room and Derek quietly sits down on my bed.
"I could be a Fire Fairy but we don't know really know for sure! If I do turn and I am a Fire Fairy I need to be able to control it or I could turn dark! I could literally go over to the dark-side?! This is all insane! I just- I ARGGHH," I let out another frustrated scream. I throw my hand out to the side and I hear a crash.
I slowly turn and see one of my photo frames knocked onto the ground, "Oh and apparently I can fricken move objects now!" I exclaim.
I hold out my hand and focus on the photo frame and it slowly floats up in the air. I move my hand up to the dresser and the photo frame moves back into its spot. I start pacing back and forth again when Derek speaks up, "Bella?"
I stop and stare at him abruptly, "What?!" I know my eyes have turned orange and I squeeze my eyes shut trying to stop them from glowing. I feel Derek stand straight in front of me and he moves his hands up and down my shoulders soothingly.
"Bella open your eyes," Derek says softly. I slowly open my eyes and I know they're still glowing. He cradles my face with his hands and leans in capturing my lips with his. I slowly move my lips against his and shut my eyes again.
"We'll figure this out together…" He murmurs against my lips. I moan in response as he lightly bites my lip. He pulls back slowly and leans his forehead against mine, "You calm now?"
"Yeah," I sigh out. He smiles slightly, "Good. Now can you do that thing with the photo frame again?"
I look back to the photo frame on my dresser and shrug, "I have no idea how any of this works?"
"Well maybe we can work on controlling your telekinesis power as well… Or whatever the hell Deaton called it," Derek says.
I nod, "Maybe if I control my power I can learn to control my anger?"
He reaches up and cups his hand on my cheek, "Whatever happens I'll be here for you."
I smile, "Even if I turn dark-side."
Derek chuckles, "Ever if you turn dark-side. But I'm serious Bella, I'll help you through everything and you will learn to control it. You are the strongest person I know and I know you will do it."
I wrap my arm around his waist and tuck my head under his chin. How was it that I could completely lose my temper only to then be calmed down in seconds by this man? Derek made everything seem possible. Everything he said made me think I could really control this.

Author's note 2: So more of Bella's powers are coming out! What do you all think! Thank you to everyone that has reviewed! Also about the guest who said something about the phoenix. I actually did think of Bella being a Phoenix but then decided against it. I also thought about making her like Deputy Parrish from season 4 but then I would have had to wait to see what Parrish was and that would have taken too long so I decided on a Fire Fairy. About her powers and stuff I'm pretty much using different things to make up all of her powers. Obviously she has fire powers and she has the ability to move objects with a force and maybe even with her mind later on which is Telekinesis power (I just recently finished watching the tomorrow people and thought it would be cool lol) and probably plenty more abilities to show up throughout the story also. Let me know what you think :P
I think that if she does fully turn there'll be an aura around her like in this picture ( . ) and I reckon she would only have fiery wings like this ( fs70/f/2012/272/8/a/fire_fairy_revisited_by_little_ ) when she gets more powerful and controls it better.
I also think her eyes would look like this ( fs70/f/2010/262/2/6/fire_fairy_by_ ) when fully turned with the orange/yellow around the eyes as well but just the glowing orange when she uses fire magic.
What do you guys think?! Am I giving away too much?! :P Let me know in a review please :)
