Now on with the story...
Chapter : 3
Derek's head shot up as soon as Scott exited Stiles's room. As Scott approached him, he could see various emotions ...anger, guilt, relief, sadness, worry...play across his features. Derek knew that these same emotions should be reflecting across his own features. Scott sat next to him and sighed.
"He's awake. He wants to see you." Scott said finally.
Derek breathed his own sigh of relief at that and at once started speaking before Scott's anger got better of him and he started shouting or worse ...throwing punches at Derek without listening to his apology first.
"I am sorry Scott. I never meant to hurt him. You have got to believe me Scott, please.I would never hurt him...I...Scott...You...please..." Derek said brokenly.
Scott put his hand on Derek's shoulder and said, "I know man, but Derek, you have got to be careful man. He's not like us. He doesn't heal like us. He's going to be in pain for days because of this. He's my best friend and he's always been there for me...even when I was being a total jerk to him. I just don't like to see him hurting and in pain."
"Me either. I wanted to protect him, you know. I don't want him to come with us and get hurt. That what we were arguing about...his safety! when things got so out of hand in a matter of second."
"Stiles will never put himself or his safety before any of us. He will never let us face any danger alone while he stays safe in the background. Don't you know that by now?"
"I know... and that's what worries me. I have already lost so many people...my family, my pack...people around me tend to die and I will be damned if I lose somebody else I care about, not when I have the power to prevent it." Derek nearly shouted the last part.
"Derek calm down. We won't lose him...not Stiles ...not anyone else. No matter what evils and dangers we will face in the future, we will make sure to that we won't lose any more members of our pack. You and I, Derek, we will protect our pack... together." Scott says firmly and adds,
"Now go see Stiles before he comes out of the hospital room thinking that we are fighting again. I will let the doctor know Stiles is awake."
Derek nods and says, "Thanks Scott." and heads to Stiles's room to face him and ask for his forgiveness.
