Derek, Scott and I were at the video store, on the roof, I am still surprised how Scott and Stiles still haven't figured out what I am.
"Starting to get it?" I asked the young Beta, Derek was beside me with his arm wrapped around my waist, I saw my dad down there with the Sheriff,
"Uh, I get that he's killing people, but I don't get why. I mean, this isn't standard practice, right? We don't go out in the middle of the night murdering everyone, do
we? "Scott asked us,
"No. We're predators. We don't have to be killers." Derek said as Scott stood.
"Then why is he a killer?" Scott asked me,
"That's what we're gonna find out." I replied as Derek and I began walking, soon we got to the Hale Manor, what was left of it.
"You know, I have a life too." Scott said as I sat on the steps,
"No, you don't. Scott: Yes, I do! So does Lexi I don't care what you say about him making me his pet or -" Scott started, but Derek corrected him about being apart
of his pack.
"Whatever. I have homework to do. I have to go to a parent/teacher conference tomorrow because I'm failing chemistry." Scott said as I quirked my eyebrows,
"How are you failing Chemistry" I asked him but only to be ignored,
"You wanna do homework? Or do you wanna not die? You have less than a week until the full moon. You don't kill with him, he kills you." Derek said as he huffed.
"Okay, seriously, who made up these rules?" Scott asked us,
"It's a rite of passage into his pack." I said annoyed,
"You know what else is a rite of passage? Graduating from high school. And you don't have to kill anyone to do it! Why can't you just find him yourself? Why can't you
just sniff him out when he's a human?" Scott asked us, Derek got up and was pissed.
"Because his human scent could be entirely different. It has to be you. You have a connection with him, a link that you can't understand. If I can teach you to control
your abilities, you can find him." Derek growled at him,
"So if I help you - you can stop him?" Scott asked us.
"Not alone. We're stronger in numbers. A pack makes the individual more powerful." Derek quoted his mom,
"How am I supposed to help if I have no idea what I'm doing?" Scott asked us,
"Because I'm gonna teach you. Do you remember what happened that first night you were shot in the arm - Right after you were hit?" Derek asked him,
"Yeah, I changed back." Scott replied,
"And when you were hit by his car, same thing, right? What's the common denominator?" I asked him but Derek grabbed Scott's hand and began to crush it.
"What the hell are you doing?" Scott asked and yet was in pain from Derek crushing his hand,
"It'll heal." I scoffed at him,
'It still hurt!" Scott yelled at us, "And that's what keeps you human - Pain." Derek yelled at him,
"Maybe you will survive." I said with a slight yawn, Soon Scott left, I grabbed Derek's hand and we ran into his room, I pressed my lips to his, which he returned, I
tore his jacket off, he lifted me up, and I wrapped my legs around his waist. He laid my back to the bed as he continued to press kisses to my neck, I placed my hand
on his chiseled chest before he wrapped his arms around my bra covered top. I placed my head on his chest,
"Now I think this is something I can get used to" Derek said as I slightly chuckled, my body laid on his right arm which wrapped around to my body. Derek then
pressed a chastity kiss on my lips, which I lightly returned, placing my head in the crook of his neck I fell asleep. I woke up the next morning to see Derek still
asleep, I pressed light kisses on his jaw, soon I saw his eyes on me.
"Morning love "He said as I sat up,
"I have to get ready for school, then after I can come over" I said as he pressed light kisses on my shoulder.
"I'll drive you" Derek said as I felt him slap my ass.
"Cheeky Bastard" I growled at him, after getting changed, Derek did drive me to school.
"K got 6 hours of hell to do, see you later babe" I said grabbing my bag from the back of the car, he leaned in then kissed my lips, which I pressed back. I looked into
his eyes,
"I love you" I said with my feeling dazed, he looked shocked, but looked at me, he opened his mouth, but I stopped him
"Hey, I am not making you say it just because I said it, but when you're ready, just tell me" I said as I watched him kiss my forehead. I got out of the car, walked a
few steps to hear it driving off, I saw Scott and Allison leaving, why? I don't know not my problem. The day went somewhat fast, till I got to Chemistry. Harris looked
at the class, I sat by Danny, he and I became fast friends, he is gay and I accept that.
"Just a friendly reminder - Parent/teacher conferences are tonight. Students below a "C" average are required to attend. I won't name you, because the shame and
self - disgust should be more than enough punishment. Has anyone seen Scott McCall?" Harris asked basically Stiles and I, I shook my head. I watched Harris go over
to Jackson
"Hey, Jackson. If you need to leave early for any reason, you let me know." Jackson nodded to him, Harris started going to the front of the class, I opened my book,
and Harris stopped
"Everyone, start reading Chapter Nine. Mr. Stilinski. Try putting the highlighter down between paragraphs. It's chemistry, not a coloring book." Harris said before
going to his desk and grading papers.
"Hey, Danny. Can I ask you a question?" I heard Stiles behind me,
"No." He replied, I continued working,
"Well, I'm going to anyway. Um, did Lydia show up in your homeroom today?" Stiles asked him, Danny replied no to that.
"Can I ask you another question?" Stiles' voice rang in my ears.
"Answer's still no." Danny replied,
"Does anyone know what happened to her and Jackson last night?" Stiles asked, I shook a little but continued reading,
"He wouldn't - tell me." Danny replied,
"But he's your best friend. One more question." Stiles asked him,
"What?" Danny wanted this conversation to be done with.
"Do you find me attractive?" Stiles asked, I quirked my eyebrows, then heard Stiles fall, to go back into his chair and work. Class ended, I had free period, I scented a
familiar smell, Derek, and I walked to find him in the boy's locker room.
"Der what are you doing here" I asked him concerned, I pulled him into Coach's empty classroom and locked the door,
"I wanted to see what Jackson saw at the video store" He replied, I wrapped my arms around him which he returned.
"I have to go more research" He said before I pulled him into a kiss. His lips pressed back, soon he left, I was walking the halls to hear Stiles' voice in my ears,
"What?" Scott asked the snazzy boy,
"Finally! Have you been getting any of my texts? "Stiles ranted at him,
"Yeah, like all 9 million of them." Scott replied to him,
"Do you have any idea what's going on? Lydia is totally M.I.A., Jackson looks like he's got a time bomb inserted into his face, Lexi and Derek are together, no good by
the way, another random guy's dead, and you have to do something about it." Stiles said as I chuckled
"Like what?" Scott asked him,
"Something." Stiles replied to him,
"Okay, I'll deal with it later." Scott replied then he hung up. My day ended so I went to the Hale Manor after I got changed into a different outfit. Thank god my dad
approved of us dating after both of us encountered my dad and revealed that we were mates, but we were taking things nice and steady. I opened then shut the door
to see my man working out, he dropped from the banister then began doing pushups.
"Hey" I said smirking to him,
"Hey" He replied as he stride to me and pressed a rough kiss to my lips, I gripped his hair and pressed back. Soon Derek stopped,
"What" I asked him,
"Hunters" He replied so we darted to another room, I heard the door open,
"No one home" a male hunter said as I stayed by Derek, god I smelt wolvesbane and gunpowder, it made my nose burn.
"Oh, he's here. He's just not feeling particularly hospitable." I heard a very familiar voice Kate Argent, she was the hunter chased my dad and I from Mystic Falls.
"Maybe he's out burying a bone in the backyard." another male hunter said then chuckled, I looked at Derek, scared out of my mind.
"Really? A dog joke? We're going there, and that's the best you got? If you wanna provoke him, say something like, "Too bad your sister 'bit it' before she had her
first litter." Kate started I saw Derek shaking,
"Too bad she howled like a bitch when we cut her in half!" Kate screamed then Derek got away, I heard grunts then I heard electricity.
"This one grew up in all the right places. I don't know whether to kill it or - lick it." I could hear the smirk in her voice. I was shaking how dare she enter this home
after what she did, I half shifted, my fangs and claws out, I ran to see her smirking, I stride to her, but got shocked, I fell to the floor, my body rolled over to Derek's
which he wrapped his arm around me.
"900,000 volts. You never were good with electricity, were you? Or fire. Which is why I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. And, well, maybe we can help each other
out. Yes, your sister was severed into pieces and used as bait to try to catch you. Unpleasant, and frankly, a little too Texas chainsaw massacre for my taste, but quite
true." Kate said looking at Derek, I growled at her,
"I have been search for you Vulpe for a long ass time" She said smirking, I stayed where Derek was.
"Now, here's the part that might really kick you in the balls - We didn't kill her. You think I'm lying? "Kate asked Derek, I growled at her,
"Wouldn't be the first time bitch." I growled, she then slapped my face.
"Tsk, sweetie - Well - Why don't you just listen to my heart and tell me if I am. Okay? We - didn't - kill - your - sister. Do you hear that? There's no blips or upticks.
Just the steady beat of the cold, hard truth. Found bite marks on your sister's body, Derek. What do you think did that? A mountain lion? Why aren't we helping each
other out? You might as well admit what you've been guessing all along, which is - The Alpha killed your sister." Kate said as Derek and I just stayed near one
another.
"And all you have to do is tell us who he is, and we'll take care of it for you. Problem solved, everybody goes home happy. Unless - You don't know who he is either.
Wow. Guess who just became totally useless?" Kate said pulling her automatic rifle out, but Derek and I were long gone. Derek looked at the handprint she left on
me, placing his hand on the mark, he took some of my pain away.
"She won't stop" I said feeling tears leave my eyes. Derek just got the Camaro, drove to my place, my dad looking at papers,
"A mountain lion attacked the school an actual cougar, I think the alpha is up to something" Dad said as he saw Derek and I.
"He needs a place to stay Kate just attacked us" I said shaking a little. Dad nodded, I lead Derek up to my room and we fell asleep on my bed, with Derek as the big
spoon and me as the little spoon.
