Episode 19: You Can't Always Get What You Want…

Previously on Wolf Lake:

"It's about damn time you got back, I'm hungry." Presley complained when they arrived back at the house 3 hours later "Sean and Randy finished their project an hour ago. Get to cooking Donner or I might have to reconsider my new attitude" she said making the others laugh as the girls walked into the kitchen.

"And we would want that, now would we guys" Sophia said with an eye roll "Pass me the steaks and I need a lighter" she continued

"Oh don't worry about it Luke just turned it on for you" Sean told her settling down on the sofa next to Sarah and Randy to play a video game, Sarah was beautifully winning.

"Okay thanks" she called out taking the steaks from Presley. "Can you grab the potatoes and corn please?"

"You're welcome" Luke purred standing behind her causing Presley to laugh like a maniac, placing the trays she was carrying by the girl.

She cleared her throat "I'm sorry" she said continuing to clear her throat. "Yeah umm, Luke why don't you help Sophia" she glanced back at the house longingly "I think Sarah is calling me."

"Well that wasn't weird at all" Sophia mumbled watching the front door shut behind the crazy blonde shifter.

"Nope not a bit" Luke agreed. 'This is bound to be a memorable night' he thought with a smile

On with the story…

She needed more information. She wasn't stupid enough to lash out blindly. Her colleagues had made that mistake and what had that gotten them. She had to be 100% sure before she made any rash decisions. That young Alpha was just the beginning. It wouldn't be long before the men, the animals of Wolf Lake paid for the indiscretions.

"Damn it." She cursed in a fit of anger; his voice was echoing her head again. He was close again. His image flashed in her head "Damn it all" she cursed again tossing everything of her desk and onto the floor. She scented the air, her hackles rising. He was too close, she could feel it

Dinner was surprisingly pleasant; there were no other unexpected appearances, no awkward silences or rising tensions. It was just your average group of teen laughing together and eating.

It was around 9:30 when Sophia stiffened and cursed softly to herself, unintentionally making the others glance at her curiously. They had all walked her from the pack meeting, so she had no way of getting to Luke's house in order to see Ruby or to even get home for that matter. Sure she knew she could always shift but strangely the idea didn't sit well with her. She glanced up noticing 5 matching sets of eyes on her, and the silence that had consumed the table.

"Sorry," she mumbled grabbing for her phone "didn't mean t to work you guys up." She chuckled nervously "I just need to make a quick call."

She stood puling her robe closer against her body and walked away from the other teens. Scrolling through her contacts she came across the name she was looking for and hit dial and waited. The call was answered on the 3rd ring.

"Sophia? Is everything alright? Where are you?" Ruby asked frantically making Sophia laugh lightly.

"Everything id fine, I'm fine. It's just; I need a ride to your place. My dad said he'd pick me up by midnight but I'm stuck at Sean's with no 'safe' way to your place" she answered stressing the word safe.

"Oh is that all?" Ruby said with a laugh snapping her fingers. "I'll have a car over there in under 20 minutes. Let my brother know will you." She finished hanging up quickly.

Shaking her head Sophia walked back towards the teens who were laughing at something Sean had done. "Hey guys" she said plopping down into her chair "I'm sorry, I promised I'd go see Ruby tonight, so I'm outta here in a few minutes. If any of you need a ride, the car will be here in about 20 minutes" she finished glancing at the clock on her phone and looking at Presley who was closest to her.

"Nah, I live like 5 minutes away from here. I think I'll manage." Presley responded turning toward Sarah "Hollander?" she nudged the daydreaming brunette who was pushing the rest of her food on her plate around.

"Huh/" Sarah asked looking up at Presley, then Sophia "Oh, um no thanks. I think I'm gonna take a run" she finished with a shrug, looking back down at her plate and continuing her assault on the remaining food.

"Randy?" Sophia asked shrugging her shoulder at Randy who responded with a quick "No thanks Soph, I'm crashing here tonight."

"Okaayy" she responded in a singsong voice "Suit yourselves" she looked across the table to Luke "You in or are you gonna go off gallivanting tonight?" she asked trying to hide the contempt in her voice.

He couldn't help but smirking it at her before responding "Yea, I'm in."

Not even 2 minutes later they could all hear the rumble of a car's engine, standing up she shivered once again pulling the robe closer to her body before she waved at the other teens. "See you guys tomorrow."

"Soph, let's go! "Ruby exclaimed when the teens entered the house "I've got a surprise for you" she continued, pulling Sophia away from the smirking Luke. Within seconds Ruby had Sophia up the stairs, pushing her into the room and pointing at the bed "Shoes!" she laughed "I just finished going through the last of my stuff while I was waiting I have a shopping problem, I buy and buy and buy and I never wear the stuff, so I knew you had to have em. Go on try them on" Ruby continued pushing the laughing teen towards the pile. "So how was your first day of school? You know besides the obvious." She asked rummaging through the pile of shoes and handing Sophia a pair of black ankle boots "Try these first" she looked up at Sophia as said teen kicked off her sandals and putting on the shoes.

"It was okay, the pack link was booming though." She stood, walking towards the mirror and raising the bottom of the robe to admire the boots. "I need to work on blocking better." She turned to look at Ruby. "What do you think?" she asked gesturing to the boots, Ruby nodded with a smile.

"Perfect" Ruby exclaimed handing her another pair of shoes "It's not that hard once you put it into practice, I can give you some more pointers if you want" she offered making her way to the dresser. She sat down brushing her hair back and clipping it up. "It took me a couple of days to get the hang of it" she said with a shrug then shaking her head at the shoes Sophia had on "Okay not my best purchase" she laughed.

XXX

The girls continues this way, gossiping and trying on shoes all while Ruby shot Sophia some random thoughts. Some of Ruby's mental barrages were funny, others inappropriate but all of them served one purpose, making Sophia's mental wall constant and sturdy.

Sophia was in the process of trying on a cute pair of flats when her father called to let her know he was working another late night case and to stay with Ruby. Only hanging up when she had promised him not to venture out.

She relayed the news to Ruby who was ecstatic and acted like a giddy child at the prospect. "Why don't you go let Luke know that you need him to be your ride tomorrow while I find you a suitable outfit for tomorrow" Ruby said smiling wickedly, throwing her a pair of shorts and a shirt.

"Not necessary Ruby, I can walk" Sophia tried to argue as she stepped into the shorts. "I don't' wanna make him feel put out"

"Pshh please" Ruby scoffed pushing the protesting teen out of the room. "I need time to find you the perfect outfit and there's no way in hell you're walking to school or anywhere for that matter. Luke will just have to deal with being your personal chauffeur."

Once Ruby had her in the hall Sophia raised her eyebrows at her "You now, sometimes your worry me" she told Ruby with the shake of her head and a small laugh.

He was lost in his own thoughts with his music playing loudly, that he'd missed the knock on his door. So he was quite surprised to find Sophia leaning against the door frame, arms crossed, smirk on her face, eyebrows arched and foot tapping impatiently. He bolted up off his bed, rushing to lower the volume of his music, feeling a bit self-conscious. It was then he noticed, once he turned to fully face her, what she was wearing. She had on a pair of his sister's shorts and one of his childhood shirts that sat just under her belly button, leaving a nice patch of skin visible.

"Wolf Lake middle?" he asked walking up to her and smirking as he tugged on the shirt, pulling her into the room slightly.

"Your sister had it." She responded with a shrug and a blush.

"I don't mind" he said, his eyes flashing at her. And he didn't mind, she looked good in his clothes, no matter how old they were. 'She looks good, too good actually' he thought to himself, loosing himself to his thoughts.

Then she was there, right in front of him, too close; her small frame brushing against his larger one, her scent drifting up into his nose. She smelled, like the sweetest fruit, an enticing mix of Casaba melon and plums with a seductive whisper of jasmine, cucumber and green tea, crisp and sweet wrapped up in Ruby's muskier eucalyptus, mint, lemon grass and cardamom. He moved closer his nose brushing against her neck, his chest rumbling, his arms encircling her waist as he brought her closer to him, she smelled amazing, she smelled like innocence and home. She smelled like she belonged to him.

Wolves relied on touch, it was important to them and as a pack they were in constant contact. It was no different for werewolves but this, this felt different. They way her scent made him heady, muddling all thoughts. She pulled back from him, a blush staining her cheeks, a frown creasing her eyebrows. He was lost, unaware of her calling his name.

"Luke" she said again waving her hand in front of his face. When she had his attention and he looked directly into her eyes she continued "Can you drive me to school tomorrow?"

He smirked again, shaking his head to clear the muddled thoughts and hopefully dispel the remnants of her scent "Sure, I'll pick you up at 6:30"

She shook her head "Actually you don't have to wake up earlier to pick me up. I'm staying here." She responded, taking a step back when he moved closer his eyes flashing at her. "With Ruby" she clarified turning on her heel and running out the door with a rushed goodnight.

XXX

He watched her leave, rushing down the hall, her hips swaying, her scent lingering in his room. He shook his head again, trying to make sense of the last 10 minutes. He threw himself on his bed. They his human brain caught up with his raging hormones and her words registered completely.

'Wait, you're staying over?' he pushed through the pack link focusing on her. After 20 minutes of silence and no response he made his way over to Ruby's room only to find her humming and folding clothes. "Where's Sophia?" he asked gaining her attention.

"Shower" she responded with a sigh plopping onto the bed.

"So it's true, she's staying?" he asked anxiously causing Ruby to laugh.

"Yes baby brother, Sophia Donner is spending the night." She answered getting up from the bed and gently leading him out of the room when the shower turned off "Go to sleep" she ordered with a smile and a kiss on the cheek.

He shook his head in an attempt to catch his bearing. He huffed in frustration, scrubbing his hands over his face and through his hair. The object of his thoughts as of late, the one girl he couldn't really figure out was spending the night, here, in his house.

Sleep that night did not come easy and when the alarm rang at 6:20am he groaned. He'd only succeed in sleeping 2 hours.

"Uh-uh, no way, not happening. I am soooo not wearing that!" Sophia turned to look at Ruby in exasperation. "Are you trying to get me mauled." She looked back at said outfit appalled. "I don't think I-"

"Sophia, relax. You're over exaggerating." Ruby responded with a laugh shoving the teen into the bathroom "Just try it on, and come out. If you don't like it we'll figure something else out." She said in exasperation when Sophia planted her feet on the ground pouting in Ruby's direction.

"But I can't wear this, not even to try it on its , it's too-" She tried to reason, only serving to sound more like a petulant child, before Ruby interrupted her with a sigh

"Soph just trust me" she said with an eye roll "If you don't hurry you'll have to wear it anyways and be late to school. Which, if I'm not mistaken will only draw more attention your way." Ruby smiled at her knowingly "So get to it missy!" with a final shove Sophia was tumbling into the bathroom, outfit in hand.

XXX

She couldn't breathe, it was too much. "You can do this. Come on Soph, you can do it." She looked up at the mirror and gasped again. "No No No No No" she chanted pacing back and forth. "What was Ruby thinking?" she questioned slowly looking back up at the mirror. Scrunching her nose up, pulling at the bottom of the outfit. "I could just kill her" she huffed, titling her head to the side.

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over expecting a different outcome. Okay so she was insane. There was no denying it; she looked at herself closely in the mirror. Why else would she continuously look at herself in the mirror hoping that when she looked at her own reflection the outfit would be so, so, so revealing. She swallowed nervously, tugging at the bottom again.

"Sophia Donner! Get your butt out her." Ruby demanded knocking on the door for the millionth time in the last 10 minutes. "It can't be that bad, and your running out of time. Luke's alarm will go off in a couple of minutes."

She huffed again "Great." The sarcasm dripping from her voice "I look like a tart." She slowly walked over to the bathroom door; taking a deep breath she opened it. She couldn't help scrunching her eyes and pulling an embarrassed face when Ruby gasped. "Well?" she asked, her eyes still closed "Give it to me straight. How bad is it?"

"You look amazing" Ruby said pulling Sophia further into the room "Wow, I think I might have outdone myself this time." She smiled pushing Sophia towards the dresser "Now stand still for a second" Ruby exclaimed messing with Sophia's hair "Okay perfect," she laughed "now put on your shoes and get your ass outta here"

She nervously made her way downstairs, glancing back towards Ruby's door wanting nothing more than to run back into the room and hide. She walked towards the intoxicating smell of coffee intoxicating luring her into the kitchen where she came face to face with Vivian.

"Good morning" she mumbled meekly making her way towards the Alpha.

"Good morning Sophia." Vivian responded with a smile "Did you sleep well?" Sophia nodded "would you care for some coffee? Help yourself to anything in the kitchen."

"Thank you Mrs. Cates" Sophia said with a small smile, pouring herself a cup of coffee and grabbing a bagel. "Has Luke come down yet?"

Vivian laughed shaking her head "No, he's horrible in the morning. There's some ham and cheese in the fridge if you want." She gestured towards said fridge "Might as well enjoy your coffee and bagel." She made her way out the kitchen stopping suddenly "I like the outfit by the way" and swiftly walking into the office adjacent to the kitchen.

She had just finished fixing a second bagel for Luke when he walked into the kitchen rubbing his eyes. "Morning" he mumbled heading straight for the coffee she held out to him,

"Good morning" she said quietly handing him the bagel and pulling out her cell phone, trying not to notice how the plain white shirt clung to his torso. "Did you sleep ok?"

He grunted hopping onto the kitchen counter "S'okay" he took a bite of the bagel, chewing slowly and swallowing, his eyes still half closed "Thanks" he said gesturing to the coffee in one hand and the bagel in the other. "How about you?"

She noticed how his jaw worked as he chewed the bagel, how his Adam's apple bobbed when he drank from the coffee the way he moved without opening his eyes and she was mesmerized, thoughts of the previous night flashing in her mind. "It was ok" she shrugged knowing he wasn't looking and tugging on the bottom of her outfit again. She glanced at the clock on her phone after sending a quick text to Sarah. 6:45, she tugged at her outfit again, feeling completely out of sorts when she noticed the coffee in his cup was nearly done and the energy around him was coming alive. 'Eeeek' she thought nervously 'he starting to wake up.' She tugged at the outfit again, shifting nervously.

"Will you stop fidgeting; it's too early for all that. I'll get you to school on time" he snapped, eyes opening as he glared up at her, taking his last bite of bagel. He was definitely not a morning person and the light was too damn bright. It took a couple of seconds for his eyes to adjust before he noticed her completely, and when he did, he had to check himself to make sure he wasn't dreaming. She looked incredible. She was wearing a plain white t-shirt under a pattern dress and tan heels. She looked delectable, all soft skin and legs and he couldn't seem to think properly or swallow correctly, so he choked. Then in a blur she was there handing him water while he pounded his chest, his eyes all watery.

"Are you ok?" she asked nervously "What happened"

He took a greedy sip of water to dislodge the bagel from his throat, then another and another. He looked at her again his eyes implanting her image into his memory. His mouth sill felt dry, he cleared his throat "I'm fine" he stuttered out dropping his mug and glass of water in the sink "let's get to school" he rushed out, grabbing her hand and pulling her towards his car. 'Jesus Ruby, you're gonna kill me one of these day' he pushed across the pack link to his sister; his only response was her laughter. He opened her door rushing over to the driver's side only to realize she had leaned over to unlock the door for him, the dress inching up her thigh. "Thanks" he mumbled sitting down and starting up the car.

He couldn't help glancing at her out of the corner of his eye. She was the only female he knew that could render him speechless at times like this, the only female who could make him feel like a middle schooler in her presence.

When they pulled into the parking lot, he grabbed her arm as she made to step out of the car "You look beautiful" he said flashing her a genuine smile, leaving her speechless this time. After a couple of seconds she smiled shyly and leaned forward to place a chaste kiss on his cheek.

"Thank you Luke" she responded before being pulled out of his car by a frantic Presley who was gesturing wildly at a somber looking Sarah who was leaning against Randy's car staring aimlessly at the people passing by.

"Luke" he heard the blonde purr, his eyes still on a retreating Sophia, smiling slightly at the way she held the bottom of the dress as she rushed towards Sarah. "I missed you last night baby."

"Brianna" he said glancing at her quickly before scanning the crowd for Sophia. When he couldn't find her he looked back at Brianna "We have class" he finished, unable to keep the agitation from his voice.

"Baby, your tense" she stated bringing her arms up to his arms "Let me help you" she purred pushing her body against his and looking up at him through her eye lashes.

"Not now Brianna, I promised my mom I'd go to class from now on" he snapped shrugging out of her hold. "You should get to class too" he started walking towards the building ignoring how she huffed at him.

"Is this about the zoo-bait? Why was she coming out of your car? And what the hell is with her outfit?" she said catching up to him and tugging on his arm making him tense "Luke?"

"Brianna" he snapped through grit teeth, violently pulling his arm from hers "I. Said. Not. Now' he continued into the school, ignoring the pouting blonde and catching up with Randy and Sean.

"What's up?" he asked clapping the boys on the back and turning into their Pack history class. It was a small reprieve he knew, but he couldn't bear to have Brianna's scent anywhere near him when Sophia's was so fresh to his sensitive nose. Her touch, after Sophia's delicate and innocent one, felt vile and made his skin crawl. Something was wrong with him, he was sure of it.

"Sarah, are you gonna tell me what's wrong on am I gonna have to beat it out of you" Sophia snapped trying to get her best friend to acknowledge her. When the brunette said nothing Sophia sighed and looked to Presley for help. "What happened?"

The blonde shrugged "I don't know, she was just like that when I got here today. She won't talk, it's like someone put her on mute or something. I know I bitch about Hollander talking so damn much but this is too excessive." She rolled her eyes snapping her finger in front of Sarah's face. "See nothing. She didn't even blink, it's creeping me out how spaced she is. I don't even know how she drove here."

"Sarah" Sophia said sternly, pushing as much power into that name a she could. They watched in morbid fascination as the girl turned dead eyes towards them. "What happened?" she asked once again putting as much power behind the question as she could muster. The brunettes eyes watered slightly, her lip quivered, she shook her head frantically.

"I'm fine" the girl mumbled out before the cascade of tears started "I'm fine, it never happened. I'm ok" she continued to repeat, talking more to herself that anyone else.

Sophia looked at Presley who nodded her head and made a mad dash for their Pack History class.

"Sarah, sweetie what didn't happen?" she tried coaxing out of the crying girl "Why are you crying?" said girl just continued to cry harder.

After a couple of minutes Sarah looked up at her "Soph" she said before collapsing in Sophia's arms. 'Presley a little help over here.' She thought frantically not bothering to direct the thought at the blonde. When Presley returned she had her own personal entourage. Behind her was Randy, Luke, Sean and a skittish Sherman Blackstone. What they failed to realize was the blonde female barreling towards them.

So I'm thinking of doing a series of One Shots for this fandom. I was re watching the show yesterday and I couldn't help but feel like there was so much we were missing, so I'm think 9 more one shots in the POV of our favorite teens :D

Also I know that I originally stated that this was gonna have Ruby/John love and all that lol but I'm not super crazy about their story line. I mean I love the characters don't get me wrong and I do want them together and of course they will be but I plan to focus more of the Luke/ Sophia aspect with a bit of love for the other teens in the story.

As for Vivian and Ruby, what can I say; they still aren't on the best of terms. So there will be no kumbaya singing between them, they just see eye to eye on the whole protect Sophia aspect. And Ruby isn't rushing to John's side because now she has a lot more to worry about than just dealing with Tyler. Hope that sums it all up for you. Next chapter is being typed up today and tomorrow. Hopefully I can have it done by the end of the week.
