Buffy groans as she drops Scott on the floor of his room glaring down at him she shakes her head in annoyance "You so owe me." She mutters before she glances out of the window and winces.
The full moon was up, so when he woke up there was a good chance it wouldn't be Scott they were dealing with.

"He awake yet?" Stiles asks as he stumbles into the room before he spots the still unconscious Scott on the ground "I take that snoring sound as a no."

"Pretty much." Buffy mumbles before she reaches into the bag of chains and grabs a pair of handcuffs cuffing Scott to the radiator.
Standing she glances at the bag before groaning "Okay, I'm gonna go get the bolts."

Stiles nods and as she heads out the room he turns back to Scott, only to groan in annoyance.

Of course, he waited to wake up till the second Buffy was gone.

Stiles eyes widen in panic as he spots a furious looking Scott staring at him "Oh no."
Scott grunts in anger as he attempts to pull himself free of the handcuff currently around his wrist.

"What the hell are you doing?"

At his words, Stiles couldn't help but glare at his best friend "Protecting you from yourself and giving you some payback." At his words, Scott finally looks up as Stiles continues to glare at him "For kissing Buffy."


Buffy carefully closes the door behind her as she enters her bedroom, she didn't want to risk being too loud and waking up Scott putting Stiles in danger. She knew Scott almost better than anyone but right now...she truly had no idea what he was capable of.

Moving towards her closet she begins searching for the deadbolts only to jump slightly as she spots Derek currently sat on her bed staring out of her window.
"God!" She exclaims before sighing "You need to breath louder!"
Derek smiles slightly at the beautiful blonde "breathe louder?"
"Yes!" She hisses "So that I don't think the room is empty."
"But you knew I was here."

Buffy opens her mouth to argue before groaning; okay he had a fair point there.

Sighing Derek moves over to the blonde before frowning in worry, something was wrong, he could smell the panic and worry on her, it was all over her "What's wrong?"
Buffy sighs before looking up into his green eyes "It's Scott."


"You kissed her, Scott, okay?" Stiles hisses quietly trying to make sure Buffy didn't hear, he knew he shouldn't be having this conversation right now but he wasn't exactly thinking clearly "You kissed Buffy. That's, like, the one girl that I...and, you know, the past few hours I've been thinking, it's probably just the full moon. You now, he doesn't even know what he's doing, and tomorrow, he'll be totally back to normal. He probably won't even remember what a complete dumbass he's been. A son of a bitch, a freaking unbelievable piece of crap friend."

As Stiles continues to rant out his feelings and frustrations, Scott's desire to make his friend's life worse seems to only grow "She kissed me."

Stiles scoffs at that "Please. I've known her longer than you and her hitting you with a desk was sign enough."
Scott merely chuckles evilly before smirking up at his best friend, knowing the best way to hurt him...with the truth.

"Fine, she did. After I confronted her about Derek."

At that Stiles freezes his eyes widening slightly, he had the feeling that he really wasn't going to like where this was going.
Scott merely continues to smirk, he could practically see the steam already forming on Stiles' head "She kissed Derek."

At that moment Stiles felt his entire world freeze, the girl he had been in love with his entire life was with a guy he could never compare to, he had never even had a shot.
Scott doesn't even seem to care as he watches Stiles' heartbreak, he merely continues to dig into the open wound "Before I kissed her...she kissed, Derek."

Stiles takes a deep breath and quickly exits Scott's room leaning against the wall by his door as he drops to the ground trying to ignore the still taunting werewolf "She's in love with him you know." Scott continues "Funny, isn't it? How the one thing you've wanted for years he's managed to get his hands on in what just a couple months?!"


"The full moon is affecting him." Derek says as he paces up and down Buffy's room, she had just finished filling him in on Scott's weird behavior.

"Yep. Big with the mind control." She tells him as she glares at the full moon in the sky, that thing was really causing her a lot of trouble "He's been getting worse all day. More violent. It's bad Derek. This isn't my Scott, my Scott doesn't go all caveman and kiss me causing me to throw a desk at him."

At her words Derek pauses feeling his own control slip for a moment as anger and jealousy fill him, he knew he shouldn't feel those things but he did. He didn't like the idea of Scott touching Buffy, especially in a way that was violent towards her.
"He kissed you?"
As Derek practically growls out the question, Buffy winces, maybe telling the werewolf that on the full moon wasn't the greatest way to get him to stay calm.


"Stiles, please let me out." Scott begins making the already struggling Stiles play with his fingers as he forces himself to stay still, it was killing him not being able to help his friend.

"It's the full moon, I swear." Scott breaths out as Stiles desperately tries to ignore him, "You know I wouldn't do any of this on purpose. Please, Stiles, let me out. It's starting to hurt. It's not like the first time. It's the full moon. It's Allison breaking up with me."

Stiles groans in despair and buries his head in his knees for a moment as he continues to listen, slowly he leans back up resting his head against the wall. He just didn't know what to do right now, a part of him hated Scott for everything, for kissing Buffy, for telling him about Buffy and Derek and for being a crap friend...but then he was close to tears in worry as he listened to his best friend's desperate voice.

"I know..." Scott continues "...that it's not just taking a break. She broke up with me. And it's killing me. I feel hopeless. Just please, let me out."
Stiles sighs "I can't."


"Derek stop!" Buffy hisses as she places both of her hands on the angry werewolf's chest, his eyes were practically daggers right now.
Derek ignores her and still tries to get past her, he was going to beat the crap out of Scott for what he did to her, full moon or not, Scott was still gonna get a blow to the jaw.

Buffy sighs and grabs Derek's arm pinning him up against her wall before forcing him to look at her "Derek please." She begs her eyes filling with desperation finally making him pause "You can't kill him."
"I can still break his jaw."
Buffy sighs and tries to argue with him, really cursing herself for not keeping her big mouth shut, however before she could do a thing a loud scream comes from Scott's room making her eyes widen in panic.

"Stay here." She hisses before she runs out the room only to spot Stiles sat on the ground outside crying as Scott screamed.
"Scott!" She yells in worry as she moves towards the door but Stiles grabs her by the waist pulling her back.

Buffy frowns and turns to him pushing him off "Stiles what the hell is wrong with him?!"
"It's the moon!"
Buffy huffs before her own eyes fill with tears as he continues to scream glancing at Stiles she spots the same look on his face.

This was worse than torture. They had to listen to their best friend in agony, knowing there was nothing they could do to save him.

Taking a shaky breath Buffy reaches down holding onto Stiles' hand tightly as they stand side by side suffering silently together...until it stopped.

There was nothing but silence.

"Scott?" Stiles calls out before both he and Buffy stumble into the room only to find it empty and the cuffs that had been holding Scott were now laid in blood on the floor below the open window.

"Oh, God." Buffy breaths before she runs out of the room and into her room before Stiles could do anything.

Buffy runs into her room right over to Derek who quickly turns to her "What is it?"
"Scott..." She stutters in a panic, she was too overwhelmed with worry and panic right now "...he's gone and I...I don't know...the hunters they're gonna be after him—"

Derek quickly walks over to the blonde cupping her face in her hands trying to calm her "I'll deal with him but I need you to trust me..." Pausing he looks at her seriously "Do you trust me?"
Buffy hesitates honestly she wasn't too sure if she did or not, as much as she wanted to there was still so much she didn't know about him. But yet she felt like she could deep down and right now he was the only one that could help Scott.

"Yes."

Derek nods and moves towards the window before pausing clenching his jaw he turns back to Buffy and before she could say another word he takes her face in his hands and kisses her strongly.

Buffy freezes for a moment in shock before kissing him back. It was short yet passionate.

But just as quickly as it had begun it was over and Derek was diving out of the window going after Scott.

Buffy stares after him for a moment before she grabs her backpack and runs back into the hall where Stiles was still standing staring at Scott's empty room.
"Come on." She hisses as she grabs his hand "We're going werewolf hunting."


Scott growls as he leaps onto Jackson's car where he and Allison were currently sat inside speaking.

Scott could fill his blood boiling, he just wanted to kill the both of them, he couldn't control himself anymore, all sense of being human was gone, he was nothing but an animal now.
Raising his clawed hand he intents on ripping off the roof however before he could do anything another body crashes into his sending them both flying off the car hood.

Scott growls as the figure tosses him into the forest away from the car, looking up as he finishes rolling on the ground he growls at the sight of Derek in wolf form glaring at him.

Scott roars loudly and runs at the older werewolf who quickly pins him tightly "Stop! Scott, stop!" Derek growls as he attempts to restrain the boy before he throws him face-first at a tree.


Buffy taps her fingers impatiently as she and Stiles continue to drive around town in search of Scott, they had to find him before he hurts someone...or worse.

Stiles looks over at his best friend he could practically see the worry vibrating off of her, she was in full panic mode, kind of like him right now.
"We're gonna find him right?" Buffy asks as she glances at the Stilinski boy.
Stiles gulps slightly before he sighs, he couldn't exactly find it in himself to be optimistic right now "I don't know Buffy..."

Suddenly a thought occurs to the boy, "Oh my God...Buff my dad."

At his words, Buffy's eyes widen as they come to a stop by a red light but before either of them could say another word the passenger window shatters and a hand rips through the glass and Buffy finds herself before dragged out of the window and thrown across the forest.

"Buffy!"


Scott grunts as Derek grabs him by the neck and tosses him to the ground before roaring into his face.

The younger werewolf couldn't help but scamper back in fear, staring up at the older werewolf with wide eyes he couldn't help but pant heavily before slowly everything he had done started to come back to him.
Taking a shaky breath he looks at the now human-looking Derek "What's happening to me?"
Derek looks down emotionlessly at the teenager "Exactly what he wants to happen."


Buffy groans as the blonde vampire bitch Darla kicks her in the stomach sending her flying across the forest floor before she crashes straight into a tree.
Grabbing onto her stomach the Slayer lets out a loud wince "Gonna feel that in the morning."

"Do you know what the saddest thing in the world is?" Darla asks the blonde as she taunts her taking slow steps towards her.
Buffy rolls her eyes before standing "That hair on top of that outfit?"

"To watch your master's plan be ruined again and again but a little girl."
Buffy merely arches a brow at the vampire "Maybe you need to get a life outside of work."

"I had one." Darla informs her thinking back to a specific vampire she had turned 200 years ago, one who had left her, and last she had heard was he had been looking for the Slayer.

"Just one?" Buffy teases "Cause between us girls I'm figuring a few centuries you built up at least a few...I mean you are looking a little worn around the eyes."

Darla merely grins at the Slayer "You didn't think I came alone did you?"
Buffy moves to give her witty comeback but there was nothing, her bag was still in Stiles' car.

Just as panic begins to settle in she spots a familiar face "Buffy!" Stiles yells as he throws her the crossbow she had stolen from Kate before he runs to stand behind her, his eyes widening at Darla before he gulps "Should have stayed in the car."

Darla merely laughs at the two teenagers "Scary." She teases before she raises to guns at the teenagers "Scarier."

Buffy's eyes widen and she quickly tackles Stiles to the ground hiding them both behind a tree as gunfire reigns around them.

"Since when do vampires have guns!" Stiles screams as he and Buffy crouch behind the tree "How is that fair?!"
"How the hell should I know?!" Buffy yells back before sighing, peeking behind the tree her eyes widen, Darla was getting closer...they needed to come up with a plan a quick.

"So many body parts so few bullets." Darla taunts "Let's begin with the kneecaps. So fun dancing without them."
Stiles' eyes widen and he turns to Buffy "Buff I like my kneecaps, very very much!"
Buffy groans and grabs her crossbow, taking a shaky breath she quickly dives away from the tree shooting Darla.

"Yas!" Stiles screams in joy thinking it was over that was until Darla stands up with the arrow in her stomach with a grin on her face "No?"
Darla laughs "Close but no heart." She says before she rips the arrow out of her and aims a gun at Buffy, Buffy's eyes widen realizing that she wasn't going to have time to reach cover.

However, before she could accept her fate a rock hits Darla in the face making Buffy's eyes shoot to Stiles who was now throwing rocks at her face.

Buffy quickly takes advantage of Darla's distraction and runs at the vampire tackling her to the ground.
As the guns go flying so does Buffy's crossbow causing her to have to face the vampire hands on.

Driving her fist into Darla's face she swings her leg out but Darla catches her leg and knees the blonde in the gut before backhanding her across the face sending her spinning through the air.
Darla grins before she picks up her gun and walks over to the Slayer who was still crouched on the ground in pain "Come on Buffy...take it like a man."

Suddenly Darla gasps in agony and turns around only to spot Stiles with Buffy's crossbow in his hands, as Darla turns to dust Stiles gasps and drops the crossbow before turning to Buffy "Was that good?"

Buffy couldn't help but smile as a laugh escapes her "Very good."
Stiles smiles back before he quickly runs over to the blonde hugging her tightly before pulling her away "Did she shoot you? No bullets?"
Buffy smiles as he begins rambling "I'm fine. You?"
Stiles nods before grinning "I killed a vampire. I'm freaking awesome."

Buffy shakes her head in amusement before she frowns as she spots blue and red lights in the distance. What the hell was going on over there?

Stiles frowns in confusion as Buffy's own face fills with confusion, turning his head his eyes widen as he spots the lights as well. At that moment dread filled him, he knew exactly what those lights were and what that could mean.

Grabbing Buffy's hand the two take off running towards the lights "Dad!" Stiles screams as they run into an open field where two police cars and an ambulance were surrounded around a body, one covered by a sheet.

"Oh God." Buffy mumbles as Stiles runs off grabbing onto cop after cop looking for his father, as Stiles' panic rises Buffy moves towards him only for a hand to grab her shoulder.

Spinning around she raises her fist in instinct, She and Stiles had just been attacked she was still a bit shaken up right now, however, her fist doesn't make contact with the person's face as she spots the Sheriff staring at her in worry.
"Sheriff." Buffy breaths before she hugs him tightly so glad that he was okay, he had been the closest thing she had had to a father for years and she didn't want Stiles to lose him, it would destroy the goofball.

The Sheriff frowns in confusion before pulling back from the hug only to frown "What's wrong kid?" He asks before he spots the bruise on her face "What happened to you?" Before she could answer though he sighs as he spots his son running around like a lunatic on the crime scene "What the hell is my son doing?"

At his words Stiles looks up spotting Buffy with his dad and sighs in relief, running over he hugs his dad tightly, holding onto him like he would lose him if he didn't.


"That one's Stiles?" Chris asks his sister as they sit side by side in the car together watching Buffy, Stiles and the Sheriff from afar.
Kate nods as she focuses on the blonde Slayer "Another friend of Allison's."
Chris frowns in confusion slightly before turning to his sister curiously "Are you gonna tell me about that talk you had with her?"
"You tell me something first. That night you came across those two Betas, one of them was smaller, right?"

"Hmmm."
"Well, was he just smaller? Or could he have been younger too?"

At her words Chris couldn't help but smile before something catches his eye, pocking out of the corner of the teenage Slayer's bag was a familiar weapon "Isn't that your crossbow."
Kate frowns and turns her eyes widening as she spots the weapon in Buffy's bag "I'm really starting to like this girl...plus I'm pretty sure Derek has a thing for the little Slayer."
"You think she's the key to him?" Chris asks this girl could truly be their way of finally destroying werewolves for good and keeping their family safe for good.

Kate nods "I do. Cause clearly whatever attacked her tonight, she can handle herself. My bet she can handle an Alpha too. With the right training."


Scott looks up at Derek as the older werewolf dumps him on his bed in his room, Scott couldn't help but feel guilty, everything he had done, to Stiles, to Buffy, it was all dropping onto his shoulders now. He felt like the world's worst friend.

"Wait." He begs as he spots Derek about to leave, as the older werewolf turns back to face him Scott couldn't help but exhale "I can't do this. I can't be this and be with Allison. I'm not as strong as Buffy. I can't handle two worlds." Sighing he looks up at Derek desperately praying that the other Beta had the answers he so badly needed "I need you to tell me the truth. Is there a cure?"

Derek pauses and clenches his jaw "For someone who was bitten? I've heard of one. I don't know if it's true." He tells him being vague.
Scott groans in frustration, he needed to know, he needed his life back "Well, what is it?"
Derek takes a deep breath, he knew Scott wouldn't be able to handle this "You have to kill the one that bit you."

"Kill the Alpha?" Scott exhales as panic, he could barely be around the Alpha without it trying to draw him to its side, how the hell was he supposed to openly fight him, he wasn't as strong, physically or mentally.

"Scott." Derek says as he draws the teen's attention "If you help me find him, I'll help you kill him."
With that Derek turns on the teenager intent on leaving, he had other places to be, however quickly he turns back to Scott and punches him across the face sending the teen wolf to the ground.

Scott groans in agony as he clutches his jaw and stares up at the blue-eyed wolf in confusion "What the hell was that for?"

Derek doesn't answer the question as he continues to glare down at the kid, he knew he probably shouldn't have done that but Scott deserved it "Don't ever kiss her again. Next time it won't be the Alpha that hurts you."

And with that the Hale storms out of the house leaving a stunned Scott laying on the floor before he groans loudly in frustration and drops his head down as he lies in his own misery.


"I can't believe Scott kissed you." Lydia says with a groan as she and Buffy walk through the Bronze together towards their normal table by the dance floor.
Buffy nods "Yeah, beyond weird. Like seriously weird."

Lydia chuckles slightly, the idea of Buffy and Scott kissing was just gross on so many levels "Tell me you're not jumping from the Hale ship."
Buffy merely rolls her eyes at her friend "I'm not on any Hale ship in the first place."

"Hmm." Lydia teases as she smirks brightly before she pushes her strawberry blonde hair behind her shoulder "At least tell me you hit Scott."
Buffy pauses thinking to when she hit him with the desk, sipping her drink slightly she smiles at her friend "Maybe a little."

Lydia grins only for her grin to quickly be covered by a miserable annoyed look, Buffy frowns before she looks over at the dance floor where a happy Stiles was bobbing his head insanely back and forth, all while completely out of beat with the song.

Buffy shakes her head in amusement as her best friend continues to dance...or at least do what he considers dancing, it wasn't exactly clear what it was.
"Why do you continue to risk your social status for that doof?" Lydia asks.
Buffy merely smiles "He's my doof."
Lydia scoffs before her eyes widen "Speaking of buff."
Buffy frowns "How did we get from Stiles to buff?"

Lydia rolls her eyes; was she the only smart one around here? Sighing she raises her drink pointing at the back door.

Buffy frowns in confusion again before finally she turns to face the back door only for her eyes to widen as there watching her was the one and only Derek Hale.

When the blonde doesn't move straight away Lydia nudges her "You go before I do."
Buffy smiles before she slowly begins to make her way towards Derek who was moving towards her as well.

Stiles runs over to their table sitting beside Lydia who groans in annoyance as he pants clearly out of breath. Stiles takes a deep breath before frowning in confusion, where was the blonde that actually liked him?
"Where's Buffy?"

Lydia rolls her eyes before gesturing over to where Buffy was currently walking towards Derek, Stiles scoffs his brow furrowing in annoyance and anger as he watches the blonde move towards the werewolf, he was totally in hell right now.


As they meet in the middle Buffy smiles up at Derek "Thank you." She says kindly "For helping Scott."
Derek nods as he looks down at the blonde "You're welcome. He's lucky you care so much about him. Was getting tempted to feed him to the Alpha."
Buffy smiles at Derek's joke, or at least what she hoped was a joke "That was a joke right?"

"Partially." He says with a smile before it quickly fades as he stares down at her, she was gonna be trouble for him, he could feel it, he had tried for so long not to have any weaknesses and now she was his biggest weakness.
"About today..."
Buffy nods knowing where he was going with this "Never happened. I get it."
"We're supernatural creatures. You're supposed to kill my kind."

Buffy couldn't help but chuckle at the irony "And you're supposed to want mine dead."
"And yet here we are."

As Derek looks down into her eyes Buffy feels her chest tighten as they seemingly move closer, it was like her bedroom all over again, everything else just faded to the background.

"This could never work..." She mumbles trying not to look at his lips "...I mean for one you're wanted by the Sheriff who happens to be my best friend's dad."
Derek smiles at her jokes as his eyes fall down to her lips finding it harder and harder by the second to stay away from her "You're right it would never work."
"Never." She smiles, despite their words both of them knew something was happening here, something that was not gonna go away anytime soon.

Slowly Derek leans down and she leans up until finally their lips touch, as their lips move against each other his hands move through her hair while hers cup his cheeks as his holds onto her not letting her go.


Stiles groans refusing to look at the couple behind him, he didn't want to know what was going on...well he did but he knew if he saw he would stop it and Buffy wouldn't forgive him.
However, the not knowing was driving him crazy so he turns to Lydia "Okay what's happening..." When she opens her mouth though he quickly changes his mind "...actually don't tell me...no tell me...wait..."
Lydia merely rolls her eyes at the spastic boy in front of her before finally he speaks up again "As long as their not kissing."

Lydia tilts her head as she spots Derek and Buffy still making out "Nope. Totally no human contact what so ever."

Stiles grins slightly but couldn't help but sigh, she was lying. God his life sucked "Perfect."
