15 Years On
Disclaimer: I own nothing but what you see here.
Summary: After High School, Scott ended up moving all the way to Alaska to have a less troublesome life.
Shortly after High School thankfully ended, Scott had a strong desire to get the Hell out of Beacon Hills, not to mention California itself as he was tired. Tired of dealing with Supernatural threats and seeing Stiles and Lydia being all lovey dovey with one another. As once when he came to his senses shortly after seeing the two together, he just couldn't support it as he remembered the crap Stiles put him through while a Full Moon was happening just cause he couldn't deal with the fact Lydia had kissed him. Plus, the whole thing nearly had cost him his friendship with Malia. Who wasn't too thrilled with either Stiles or Lydia following the end of their problems with the Ghost Riders and Mr. Douglas. School reporter and Yearbook Photographer Sydney Watson had also ended up leaving with Scott to find somewhere better. As thanks to a one night stand between the two of them, she had ended up pregnant and her parents had turned their backs on her. Leaving her with little options in the end. This had allowed for the two to develop more of a relationship with one another as they made their exit from Beacon Hills and traveled through out the country until they found themselves in Wrangell, Alaska.
Finding it to be exactly what they needed for a new life much to their liking. The lack of a strong presence of the Supernatural for the area was also a great thing in Scott's view as well. And while it had proven a bit difficult for the young couple, especially with a baby on the way, the two had managed to pull it off. Online College courses had also made it easier for the two since it meant having to travel less for College courses. Despite the fact he hadn't ever really fished until that point, Scott had managed to get the hang of it after getting a job with the local fishing industry in the area. Sydney would even get a job with one of the local radio stations and her easy going and fun personality would gain her a lot of fans as well. Over time, Scott would be able to get his mom to move out that way so that she would be a lot safer there then back in Beacon Hills. Malia, Mason, Parrish, and Corey would also move to the area as well as Scott's descriptions of the place had definitely appealed to them. And a short time after arriving, quickly realized just how appealing it was to be there and remained with no intention of wanting to leave. Three years after moving to the area would see Scott and Sydney getting married, though her parents would not attend.
As they were still vastly unsupportive of her considering she had refused to abort or let the little one be adopted. Another child would never be considered all that much by the happy couple as little Billy had proven to be more then enough for them. Though it had been discussed in the future that when he was older, the idea of another child could be a considerable option. Scott was thankful however that Billy hadn't inherited his father's Asthma or the life of a Werewolf as neither of those options was things the father of one wanted his son to go through. Sydney loved the Hell out of the fact that their son did get his jaw however. Tragedy however would strike after 8 years of living in Wrangell when a drunk driver collided with Sydney while she herself had been running an errand. She'd spend two days in the hospital before passing away due to complications with her injuries. And not even Scott's being able to take her pain had been able to do much. She had also refused the Bite that it could possibly do more harm then good but loved that he was willing to give her it. Several in the area, including Scott himself, wanted to do some very horrible things to the drunk driver.
But hadn't per Sydney's wishes. Her loss would see the McCall Pack in its entirety re-uniting for the first time in years at her funeral. Along with a surprise apology from both Stiles and Lydia after they had realized how horrible they had been towards their friends where their relationship was concerned. A relationship that was no longer even a thing due to that and other factors. Sydney's parents would even show up, feeling genuinely horrified over the loss of their daughter and wanting to be involved in Billy's life after that. But Scott wasn't having that and essentially told them to get lost considering how willing they had been to keep their backs turned on their daughter when she truly needed them. And with the entirety of the Pack and even some of the residents of Wrangell backing him up, her parents were forced to concede to him. Though they hoped that when things were a bit more calmer, he would change his mind about them being involved in Billy's life. Unfortunately for them, that wouldn't ever happen as it had actually been another of Sydney's final wishes due to how bitter she felt towards them for their treatment of her.
Over time and saved up money thanks to fishing and other jobs in the area and sometimes outside of it, Scott would eventually open up his own Animal Clinic that offered some very easily affordable payments. Which would be ideal for those in Wrangell who didn't necessarily have a great deal of money to be able to afford Vet bills. Interestingly enough, this would cause him to cross paths with a Tizheruk after some kids had brought their injured dog to him and told him what had happened. This encounter would be one of the very few Supernatural issues he ended up having to deal with in Wrangell. The whole thing would turn him into a local hero for dealing with the threat that was thought to be more of a bizarre Science Experiment gone wrong then an actual Tizheruk. It'd be roughly into his 15th year of living in Wrangell when an old ghost from Scott's past made a return to his life. One he definitely hadn't been expecting and was a bit hesitant about it while Billy and everyone else who knew him was happy over her appearance in the area. That ghost being none other then Kira Yukimura who was finally free of the Skinwalkers and was looking to see if something between them could still be possible due to feelings she still had for him years later.
Billy himself thought the girl was pretty cool and liked the fact she was making his dad be less lonely. Not that Scott had ever admitted feeling that way but his own son and those who knew him could tell he was. It'd take Scott visiting Sydney's grave to get some kind of sign that it was okay for him to move on and be happy. As he felt it was only right to do so as otherwise it would be offensive in his view. And if there was one thing everyone in town could agree on, its that he clearly had felt like he had gotten the okay from Sydney from beyond the grave as later that day he would be seen showing up at the bookstore where Kira works at. "Hey." Greeted the father of one a bit nervously.
Feeling thankful that he had caught Kira at a really good time while there was only two customers in the store who were absorbed into some reading. "Hey back." Returned Kira with a smile.
Her senses telling her of the nervousness her ex was feeling and hoping he wasn't about to bring some sort of bad news her way. And she didn't think he would be nervous about asking her to babysit Billy. As she loved hanging around that kid as he was freaking adorable in her eyes. Even if a part of her wished that she was his biological mother and making her resent the Dread Doctors and Theo even more. The fact he seemed to like her was a pretty sweet thing too as she didn't want to be at odds with him as that would have sucked in all kinds of ways. "I know this might be sudden… But umm… Do you wanna grab some dinner with me tonight?"
Kira felt so surprised by that as her heart began to beat wildly while the customers in the store got out their phones and started to text this little development! "Tonight? Like… After I get off work tonight?" Asked Kira as she decided to be a bit coy with him.
"Umm, yeah. Unless that's not, you know, alright. Then we can maybe try another time?"
Leaning over the counter, she beckoned him to come closer and once he did. She smiled widely at him. "Mr. McCall, I would LOVE to have dinner with you tonight." Informed the girl happily and even pecking the stunned man on the lips.
Even giggling at how he was reacting to everything while ignoring all the notification sounds her phone was giving off as she had a fairly good idea what those were about. Scott would remain where he was for a good long while until Kira would nudge him out of his state of shock. "R-Right, I'll, I'll be back later to pick you up." Said the man nervously.
"Can't wait."
Smiles were had at the other and Scott reluctantly left the bookstore. And to his mild confusion, his hearing would let him hear the sounds of cheering from the customers that had been in there to begin with. But he wouldn't focus on it too much as he had a date to get prepared for! A date that would turn out to be really great in the end and be the start of his and Kira's second chance with one another. Even giving Billy a baby sister 4 years later.
