The Scott
Who Listened
Disclaimer: I own nothing but what you see here. This is something that's been on my mind recently due to the fact there's a lack of it. Basically anything where Scott actually listened to Chris when it came to Allison at the beginning of season 2 and I figured that would be something to try and explore and I've already got a couple of different ideas I'm gonna try at one point. One of them being more on the humorous side as Allison does everything she can to get Scott to change his mind. Which… Will be in the near future hopefully. Anyways! On with the show!
Also features early and safe arrival of Cora, ignores Jackson being a Kanima, and Gerard is no where to be found after Deucalion at some point managed to find him and slice his neck.
Summary: After Chris' warning with a gun, Scott decides to actually listen and keeps his distance from Allison.
In the three months since Chris busted the driver side window and dragged him out of the car and on to the hood of the car with a gun pointed at him to stay away from his daughter, Scott had been doing his absolute best to do as was warned. Allison had been damned unhappy with him over it but he wasn't going to chance her father's wrath as he quite liked living. And whether or not Chris was drunk, he didn't think he'd be able to hold back from hurting the man if he tried something like that again anyway. Which was the last thing he wanted to do as it would only cause problems. Sure being without Allison had been lonely as Hell but thankfully he had Stiles by his side to get through it. His mom nearly went on the warpath when he told her about the man's drunken actions until he was able to convince her not to do anything since the last thing he wanted to cause was more issues.
Scott and Stiles even joined up with Derek's growing Pack that included Jackson, a recovering Lydia who didn't care to speak with Scott much due to things with Allison, Isaac Lahey, Erica Reyes, Cora Hale, and Vernon Boyd. Deaton, much like he had with Talia back in the day, served the new Hale pack as their Emissary. It was also thanks to him that Derek's younger sister Cora was safely able to make it home to her big brother when she had learned of the return of the Hale Pack while living in South America. There was consideration of getting Danny to join up as another human representive of the Pack but so far it had yet to happen for one reason or another. Deaton also served as a mediator between the new Hale Pack and the Argents in order to keep the peace between the two in order to help better protect the town.
Allison was even considered Pack as well since Victoria made the request as it would allow for an Argent to be amongst them. Though Derek was of the belief it was just to spy on them but kept that opinion to himself. Her being part of the Pack had its issues considering things between her and Scott and only really showed up when a Pack meeting was being held. Victoria also had not been too happy about her husband's drunken foolishness and had demanded for Chris to apologize but so far Scott had made that difficult to do as he went out of his way to avoid the man. Primarily out of the fear of another gun to his face. And despite any feelings Scott had for Allison, he found himself drawn to Cora as she likewise felt herself drawn to him.
Derek had explained that part of it had to do with their inner Wolves and to not deny it since doing so would only strengthen the desire to be around one another til it couldn't be ignored. So with that in mind, the two started to hang around one another more and Cora even insisted on him wooing her. Though for the most part she was joking and found it amusing when he actually did it after looking up any information he could find online. Chris got a round of yelling his way from Victoria when Allison came home crying one night after seeing Scott and Cora together in a more than friendly way. Leading to Chris requesting Scott's presence at the Argent household when it was just him there the following day and not taking no for an answer. Scott had the bright idea to have Boyd come with him as a just in case sort of thing much to the older man's slight annoyance. Though he supposed he couldn't blame the teenager for wanting any back up.
"You're safe here Scott, I promise." His words were clearly something Scott didn't believe even though he could hear the man's heart showing his honesty.
"I'll go busy myself in the kitchen." Suggested Boyd as he could tell the older man wanted to be alone with Scott.
The young Wolf tried to argue against that but Boyd promised him he'd be there quickly if it was needed. Mr. Argent knew he was gonna have to do something for that kid as a thank you. And boy was that a weird concept for him considering he hunts Werewolves and all. Once they were alone in the front room, silence between the two ran heavy before the older man decided to get on with it. "Right, first, thank you for coming here today Scott."
A scoff could be heard coming from the teenager after that. "Not like I had much choice."
None of the Pack really gave him much of a choice for that matter! Even his own mother, who was still wrapping her head around her son being a Werewolf of all things after being told almost a week ago about it when she had the unfortunate luck to come across him and a Wendigo in a particularly brutal fight. Chris decided to ignore that and continued on. "I asked you here because I wanted to talk to you about Allison. And about the actions I made that day when I wasn't sober."
He honestly wishes he could go back and prevent that from happening as Hell, McCall was a damn good kid and it wasn't like he had chosen to be Bitten after all! "I've kept my distance and moved on, just like you clearly wanted me too. What the Hell more do you want from me!?"
Chris glared at him, effectively keeping Scott from saying more. "I want you to be quiet and let me talk! What I did to you that day was inexcusable and I am sorry for that. If it was possible to go back and prevent myself from doing it I would. I don't want you to keep your distance from Allison alright? Its hurting her and I know its hurting you."
Honesty was radiating from the man but that honestly didn't matter to Scott as the damage had already been done. And besides, did Argent expect him to just dump Cora and go back to Allison? Cause he sure as Hell wasn't that kind of a jerk! His silence spoke volumes to Chris and the older man could understand it perfectly. "Look… Just… Just think about it alright? I'm not even saying get back with her as I am not looking to be even more of an asshole. Friendship is better then nothing at least."
"I don't trust you and I make no promises where Allison is concerned." Hell, a very important talk would need to be had with Cora as it is and he certainly had no plans to dump her. Even if he still had some fairly strong feelings for Allison.
Chris nodded at that as it was understandable given the situation. "I get that, I'd be the same if I were in your shoes."
Scott kinda doubted that but kept quiet. Soon afterwards, Scott and Boyd left the Argent home with one of them having quite a bit on their mind. Boyd was left wondering how this was all gonna play out and hoped that somehow no hearts would get broken over the whole thing now that Argent had done this. A few days later would see Scott, along with Cora at his side walk up to Allison, leading to a friendship being born even though Allison clearly wanted more then that from Scott. It had been awkward for a short period of time for the three until Cora herself suggested the idea of the three of them being together.
An idea that Allison had actually considered despite the fact she felt no actual attraction towards the Hale girl. But if sharing meant she got to be with Scott, she would take it since the last thing she wanted to do was cause them to break up over feelings since she actually liked the girl and her no nonsense attitude. It was an odd thing but that's how Allison honestly felt. It'd be nearly two weeks after the idea was presented that Allison would agree much to the surprise of Scott and a fairly happy Cora as it meant she might be able to get the girl to be a bit more open minded. But even if she wasn't able to pull it off, she wouldn't mind it one bit since she would have an ally/friend to team up with when the need arose where Scott was concerned. Chris nearly blew a gasket when he found out about the new situation and Victoria had gotten slightly tipsy over it as well but thankfully nothing like a gun to the head happened. The trio were definitely the odd couple of Beacon Hills but somehow they made it work.
Author's Notes: Right, so that happened and heck, I don't typically even do trio relationships so this is a new one for me as well. As it is we barely know much about Cora so for all we know she would be bi-sexual and open minded to sharing. Course I could just be trying to rationalize what happened but oh well.
