I watched as Scott relaxed, Deaton told me that half the building is surrounded with mountain ash, I felt pain through the bond Derek and I had, but it was a string of
pain. Soon Scott stood up, luckily Deaton caught him before he fell,
"Welcome back to the land of the conscious. You doing okay? Maybe you should sit down, huh?" Deaton said as I helped Scott sit, but soon I heard the door in front
of the clinic open,
"Hello?" Deaton called out, he looked at us, putting a finger up, signaling us to stay quiet. I take Scott and nod at him,
"I'm sorry, but we're - We're closed." Deaton said as he headed to the gate,
"Hi there. I'm here to pick up." Peter's voice filled my sensitive ears, I shivered, I felt Scott's hand on my back, trying to keep me calm.
" I'm not sure I remember you dropping off." Deaton replied I was afraid of Peter, I heard him slightly chuckle, Scott pulling me to him, in a protective gesture.
"These two wandered in on their own." He replied as I stiffened up, looking at Scott, then placing my hands on my stomach.
"Even if they did, I'm afraid I can't help you - We're closed." Deaton said more forcingly, trying to get the Alpha to leave.
"Well, I think you can make an exception this one time - Don't you?" Peter said as I felt Scott holding on to me tighter and placing me behind him.
" I'm sorry. That's not going to be possible. Maybe you could come back during regular hours." Deaton said trying be calm and collected.
"You have something of mine. I'm here to collect it." Peter said a bit irritated, I could smell the anger rolling off of him.
"Like I said - We're closed." Deaton said a bit more direct towards the man. I heard fingernails scratch at the gate, which happened to be made out of Rowan Oak, I
shook, trying to stay cool.
"Mountain ash. That's an old one." Peter said before I heard wood breaking, letting out a whimper as Scott kept me behind him,
"Let me be as clear as possible. We - are - closed." Deaton said as I heard his heart beat steady, being a druid gives him the advantage. I heard footsteps getting
quieter before Peter's voice once again filled my ears.
"There are others who can help me get what I want, Scott Lexi. More innocent - and far more vulnerable." Peter growled lowly to us.
"Allison!" Scott said before the door opened and closed. I relax, Scott takes me to his place to meet up with Stiles.
"Call it again."Scott told us, I had called his phone about seventeen times,
"It's not here. Okay, so you lost your phone. Why don't you just get a new one?" Stiles asked him as I looked outside,
"I can't afford a new one. And I can't do this alone. We have to find Derek." Scott told him, I whimpered, I need Derek, I can't raise this baby on my own,
"Well, "A", you're not alone. You have me. And "B", didn't you say Derek walked into gunfire? He sounds pretty dead." Stiles said as I growled at him, he then
cowards away from me,
"Argent's plan was to use him to get to the Alpha - they're not gonna kill him." Scott told him,
"All right, so then just let them do what they're planning, you know? They use Derek to get Peter - problem solved." Stiles said as I sat up, looking for the gleaming
red eyes of the Alpha. "Not if Peter's going after Allison to find Derek! I can't protect her on my own. Which means we either find Derek first - just - just help me!"
Scott told him,
"You know, you probably lost it when you two were fighting. You remember that, when he was trying to kill you, after you interrupted him trying to kill Jackson? Are
you starting to see a pattern of violent behavior here?" Stiles asked him, I rolled my eyes.
"He wasn't going to kill anyone. And I'm not letting him die." I said growling,
"Could you at least think about letting him die? For me? What?" Stiles asked me.
"Scott your mom just got home from work." I said after I smelt her scent invade my nose,
"Hi. It's me. Melissa McCall. I'm - giving you a call. That always sounds really weird because of my last name, McCall. So - yeah. Um - You know, I was just
wondering if maybe you wanted to reschedule dinner or lunch. It doesn't have to be dinner. Lunch is good. Or maybe you would like to do coffee, or maybe you're a
tea drinker. I don't know. You know, we could also just go out for drinks. Yeah, 'cause I think I need a few after this profoundly embarrassing phone call. So if this
really doesn't freak you out too much after this disastrous call, feel free to, um, give me a call." Melissa said then I heard her crying,
"Is she okay? What's she doing?" Stiles asked me,
"Crying." I replied with a slight sigh,
"Scott, you can't protect everyone." Stiles told him,
"I have to." Scott replied as I got up,
"I have to go home, get some sleep, for the baby and me" I said before leaving,
"See you at school tomorrow" I said waving them goodbye, I arrived at home late, went upstairs and passed out in bed I woke up the next morning, I finished getting
dressed after throwing up my breakfast, after flushing it down, I took my paternal pill.
"What do you like pup" I asked my belly as if it would answer me. I went to school, I had morning practice, I could play lacrosse, but I would have to quit the team
after my third month, Coach was sad, but he told me until then that I could practice. I heard Scott and Stiles talking to Jackson, so I walked up and got between the
two.
"Just do it for Allison, okay? She's in serious danger. I'm talking around - the - clock danger. She needs someone to keep an eye on her at the dance." Scott told him,
but Jackson scoffed,
"Have her dad do it, okay? He's the one actually equipped to handle this." Jackson retorted to him,
"And how Jackass, is he supposed to do that and keep Argent from finding out about him?" I said a bit annoyed,
"Not my problem." Jackson said smirking at me,
"You're her friend too. You are. All that time that you spent with her to get to me you can't tell me that you didn't get to know her and like her. It's Allison. It's
impossible not to like her. You can't tell me that you don't care if she gets hurt." Scott said as I nodded, agreeing with him,
"What if I get hurt?"Jackson asked us,
"Then it's worth it." I said smirking,
"Not to me." He said before pushing me to a locker,
"No he did not just do that" I said getting angry.
"Well, I shouldn't say I told you so - 'cause it's not strong enough. How about I'm always right, and you should listen to whatever I have to say and never disagree
ever, ever, for the sake of your wolflihood?" Stiles told Scott, he looked pissed,
"Scott allow me" I said cracking my neck.
"I'm not done." I said about to show Jackson not to mess with a pregnant Fuchsbau.
"You're not done. Okay." Stiles said as I saw Jackson's back turned,
"One more thing." I said before he turned around to look at me. I made my eyes glow, opening my mouth showing my fangs, claws extended, I snarled at him, his
heartbeat was high. I then slammed him against the door that went to the school,
"You are going to take Allison to the dance, and if you don't I'll be the one to show you how real near death injuries feels compared to the little claw mark on the back
of your neck my boyfriend gave you" I growled, my inner fox mixed with my normal voice. I backed off, going to my normal self,
"Are we clear" I said smirking, Jackson nodded quick then left. Soon Scott, Stiles and I were discussing the beta's situation
"Do you even have a date?" I asked Scott as he looked at me,
"Not yet." Scott replied as I chuckled,
"Do you have a suit?" Stiles continued,
"Not yet." Scott retorted to his question,
"Do you have a ticket to the formal? A ride there?" I asked as I smelt nothing threatening in the area,
"No. And no." Scott replied to me,
"So you're gonna ride your bike to a dance that you're not even allowed to go to without a date, a suit, or a way in with werewolves and werewolf hunters all out to
kick your little werewolf ass." Stiles said as I laughed a bit,
"Yeah. You two gonna help me?" He asked us,
"Hell, yeah." Stiles and I said in unison. I went with Allison and Lydia dress shopping,
"Allie are you ok" I asked as I patted her shoulder,
"Nothing's wrong, I just - I have a lot on my mind." She replied, I nodded to her.
"You could smile, at least. Ever heard of the saying, "Never frown. Someone could be falling in love with your smile"? Smile, Allison. I'm buying you a dress." Lydia
told her, I rolled my eyes,
"Have to admit as far as apologies go, that's more than I expected." Allison said as I chuckled a bit.
"Excellent." Lydia said smiling at her,
"But not as much as I'm going to ask." Allison said as I quirked my eyebrows,
"What? What's that supposed to mean?" She asked her.
"It means you're going to cancel on whatever dumb, roided - up jock you said yes to and you're going to go with somebody else." Allison told her, I went wide eyed,
"Ouch" I scoffed
"Who?"Lydia asked after we got off the escalator, Allison looked around then pointed at a boy,
"Him." Allison said as I saw who she was pointing at, Stiles!
"Don't frown, Lydia. Someone could be falling in love with your smile." Allison said taking the words out of Lydia's mouth and curving them back on her. I went with
Allison trying to find a dress,
"That's not your color. Sorry if that was intrusive, but - considering your skin tone, I'd go lighter." I turned around to see Peter near Allison, I walked to her,
protective.
"Because I'm pale?" Allison asked him, I exerted anger fumes in my scent, warning him silently,
"Fair. I mean, you can't call skin like yours pale. Not skin that perfect." Peter said as he took her hand,
"Trust me, I - I have a unique perspective on the subject. Do you mind? See? Much better. You're not here alone, are you? Shopping for dresses - with friends. High
school dance." He said after handing her a new dress.
"Formal." I replied, then the announcer said they were towing Allison's car.
"Oh! That's my car." Allison said as she went to find Lydia so she could pay and save her car from getting towed.
"I have to say, Scott, I continue to be impressed with your ingenuity. Just remember - You can't be everywhere all the time." Peter said before turning to me,
"Stay away from me" I said as I wrapped my arms around my midsection,
"Why would I want to hurt my nephew's mate, especially since you are carrying the next generation of the Hale's, don't want my family to die out" He said smirking
as he took my hand gently, looking at my skin and looking at the rack that he found Allison's dress on. He then took out this beautiful blue strapless dress.
"Perfect dress, I think this will make you glow, especially your rare dusk blue eyes" He said with a smile.
"Thanks" I said a bit grateful, then he nodded and disappeared. I tried the dress on, it showed my curves, fitting nicely around my hourglass figure. I took it off, then
got my other clothes back on, got to check out only to pay for the dress. I got home, went upstairs, showered, got my hair straightened. After that I saw the sun
going down, I did my nails, got my dress and shoes on, then put my mom's headpiece on. I walked downstairs to see my dad smiling at me.
"Your all grown up" He said as I hugged him,
"I'll always be your little girl dad"I said smiling,
"Let me drive you there" He said making me nod my head, we got in the car and began driving to the school.
"We will find him, I promise" Dad said smiling, I nodded,
"You look so much like your mother" He said before kissing my forehead.
"Thanks" I said smiling, we arrived. I hugged him before getting out of the car, watching it leave. I got inside to see Allison near Jackson, I began walking over.
"Not the response I was expecting, but - No, I guess not."Allison replied, I smelt that she was sad, I walked up to her,
"Allie you want to dance" I asked her, she smiled then nodded, I took her hand and we began dancing. Soon the music stopped, I saw Coach looking at Danny and
Scott dancing together,
"What the hell are you doing?"Coach asked as we all stared at him,
"Yes, coach?" Scott asked innocently,
"Okay, ho - ho - ho - ha ha. Hold on, you - I was just saying he's not supposed to - I mean, I wasn't saying that he shouldn't - You guys don't think - You don't - I - I
was - Just dance, everybody. Just dance! Dance! It's a party!" Coach said then the music started, I watched as Scott walked towards Allison and me.
"Allison." Scott started, I saw Allison smiling,
"Yes Scott I think Allison would love to dance with you." I said as I handed her to him, I looked at him smiling grateful. I walked outside to get some fresh air, the
music was giving me a headache,
"Derek I wish you were here, I wanted you to be the one dancing with me tonight" I said as I looking at the almost full moon. I looked to my left seeing Scott and
Allison heading for the buses, smiling I close my eyes but soon open them to see two cars blocking Scott's two ways of getting out, they then go towards him. I watch
as Scott jumps before they crush him, I see that Scott had shifted, then looked up at Allison, showing her that he's a werewolf.
