Authors Note: I had the worst time trying to write this chapter and I officially hate it. By the way did anyone see last night's episode of Teen Wolf? I thought Isaac was great Anyways enjoy the rest of the story. I hope...
"Alright, come on Scott lets go. Derek should be here any minute," said Stiles as he and his best friend snuck down the hallways of the school. Scott shook his head and proceeded to travel past the security cameras with caution.
"Are you ever going to tell me why we're skipping class to help Derek sneak in?" asked Scott. Stiles ignored his question and peered around the corner to check for any stray teachers wondering the halls.
Once the coast was clear he turned back around to face McCall. "Okay first of all I'm skipping class to help Derek. You just decided to come with me, so at least try to be a good look out."
Scott gave Stiles a vacant stare and told him to shut up. "Ha, doesn't feel so good playing Robin now does it?" said Stiles with a grin. Scott rolled his eyes and continued wondering down the hall until they reached the side door behind the gymnasium.
Meanwhile it was another dull Monday morning for the rest of the students at Beacon Hills High and Isaac was still very tired from the past two days of hell that he'd gone through. Lucky for him being a werewolf allowed him to heal rapidly, but that didn't mean he rested well knowing that Derek was probably watching him.
Isaac's eyelids felt heavy and he placed his head on his desk and drifted off to sleep. Only when he could find the time to close his eyes did he feel a sense of peace. Don't get him wrong, Isaac enjoyed being in the pack, but he just didn't feel as close to Derek as he would like. Deep down he wanted them to be a family yet it seemed that the Alpha was just becoming to be like his father.
All of a sudden Isaac felt a warm hand on his shoulder. Thinking that it was his teacher he refused to open his eyes and hoped that the administrator would take a hint and leave him alone. Sadly the beta guessed wrong as he felt long fingernails press into his back.
"Oww, Erica cut it out!" he exclaimed while glaring at the blonde. She stepped back a little and inspected her manicure. "Hey I think you chipped one of my nails," she whined.
Isaac covered his face with his hands and rubbed his tired eyes. "What are you even doing in here this isn't your classroom?"
Erica sighed and pointed at the clock on the wall. "You idiot, you slept through the bell. This class ended four minutes ago."
Isaac glanced around the empty classroom. "Oh shit, you're right. But that still doesn't explain why you're here," he yawned. Erica rolled her eyes and watched as a new group of students entered the classroom. "Let's go, we're going to be late for P.E."
Isaac nodded and followed her to the gym. Unfortunately the bell rang while they were walking down the hallway, but Erica kept on going. Isaac looked back and forth between the blonde and the hallway behind them that led to the front office. "Hey shouldn't we go get late passes?" he asked.
Erica turned around and raised her eyebrows at him. "Why would we do that, we're almost to the gym?"
Isaac shrugged, "Well, you know how Mr. Rittenmier gets when people show up late to his class. He'll probably give us detention and then when Derek finds out I guarantee you that he will yell first and ask questions later."
Erica smiled and began pulling on Isaac's hand until he continued to walk down the hall. "Don't you worry, I bet nobody will even notice that we were missing," she said while gripping her fingers around his arm.
Once they made it to the gym the only other people he saw were Stiles, Scott, Boyd, and Derek. Scott was standing off to the side with his arms crossed while Derek stood in the center of the gym between Boyd and Stiles. Isaac began backing away, but Erica simply pushed him forward.
He glanced back at her and sighed in defeat, "I know I'm going to regret asking this, but what the hell are you doing here?"
The Alpha stared at Isaac for a moment then pointed to the others in the room, starting with Boyd and Stilinski. "These two are here to help me with a new exercise."
Stiles coughed and tapped Derek on his shoulder. "Hey, are you going to forget to mention that I helped you break in, so that you could even do this little exercise?"
Derek snarled at Stiles, causing him to flinch. "Okay, geez I'm shutting up now. No need to rip my head off."
The Alpha shook his head and quickly finished up what he was saying before Stiles interrupted. "Erica's here to keep watch and to make sure that you don't try to run. While Scott decided to show up today for moral support or something. Anyways-"
"No, I'm here because Stiles told me what you guys did to him yesterday and if I would had known that you were going to use those cuffs on one of us I would have never let you use them," said Scott.
"Hey, why don't you shut your mouth and not tell me how to run my own pack." said Derek angrily. An air of silence filled the room and found its way down everyone's throats because nobody dared to say a word.
Isaac glanced at Derek then to Scott and gave him a faint smile. "Thanks Scott."
McCall looked over at him and nodded, "No problem." Derek stared at the two and for a short moment he felt kind of wrong for hurting Isaac, but he waved away that thought and continued his reasoning for bringing them all to the gym.
"Well Isaac I believe that you've actually been doing a better job of controlling your anger so were not going to work on that today, but that doesn't mean that you're off the hook," he said while heading back into the supply closet.
Stiles clapped his hands together and grinned eagerly as Derek rolled out a large basket from the back room. "Oh cool, what's it gonna be today, laser torture, knives, tranquilizer needles? Wait I think I've got it, ravenous ninja monkeys! Or maybe-"
"Stilinski shut the hell up!" shouted the Alpha. He dug into the large basket and pulled out a medium sized rubber ball.
Isaac squinted across the room at the red object and scratched the top of his head. "Is that a dodge ball?" Derek nodded and handed one to Stiles and one to Boyd. "Today we're going to be doing an agility exercise to help you not be so predictable when you fight. This lesson will teach you how not to get trapped by your opponent. Are you ready to begin, because we've only got forty-five minutes before your class gets back from doing laps on the track?"
"Yeah I'm ready, but are you seriously trying to train me by using a child's toy?" he asked skeptically.
Derek smirked at him then at Scott, who was also giving him a confused look. "Yes, so let's start."
Stiles and Boyd began chucking one dodge ball after another at Isaac, but no matter which way they threw the balls he avoided them in a precise manor. The Alpha watched proudly as Isaac dodged everything that came his way. He glanced at Scott and held out one of the balls to him.
Scott stared at the rubber object and shook his head, "I'm not taking part in any of this, so keep me out of your stupid games Derek."
"But look at them; they're having so much fun out there," he said while gesturing towards the others.
"How the hell are we supposed to hit him when he's moving so fast?" asked Stiles. Boyd shrugged and continued tossing dodge balls at his pack mate.
"Oh my god," said Erica. "You guys suck at this. Pass me a ball and I'll show you how it's done."
Stiles and Boyd exchanged humorous glances and kicked a stray dodge ball over to her. Erica caught it in mid-air without ever taking her eyes off Isaac. She watched the way he moved around the room. Whether it was climbing on bleachers, doing backflips across the floor, or hanging on the edge of basketball hoops he was everywhere. He started running from place to place so fast Erica began to doubt that she'd ever catch him, but as she kept her eye on him and that's when she saw an opening.
Without a second thought she chucked the ball as hard as she could and everyone watched in complete awe as they saw it heading straight for Isaac.
"Holy crap, I think she's actually going get him," said Derek, but Isaac heard the Alpha's words and glanced up from the ground just in time to catch the ball right before it nailed him in the face. He stared at the toy then tossed it up in the air a couple of times, taunting Erica with each catch.
"You call that a throw? Stiles can throw it better and he's Stiles!" said the beta. Erica sneered at is comment and stomped over to pick up another ball. "Oh shit, she's mad now!" laughed Boyd.
Isaac smirked at the blonde and rolled the ball that he had been holding back to Stiles, who was still muttering something about the joke he had just made.
"I can throw just fine," said Stiles while kicking the ball away from himself. Isaac shook his head and went back to dodging the balls that Boyd had begun throwing at him.
A few seconds later he heard Erica calling out to him, but he knew that she was trying to distract him so instead he kept his eye on the game in-progress. Well at least he tried to focus until he made the mistake of glancing over in her direction.
She had dropped one of the balls and was picking it up agonizingly slow, which gave him the perfect view of her low cut blouse. Isaac tried to look away, but let's face it he was a teenage boy. Just as she was standing up another ball came flying from the opposite side of the room and hit him right in the stomach.
Isaac crumpled to the ground while Erica strutted past him and gave Stiles a high five. "Great plan Stilinski," she said with a smirk. Stiles laughed and turned to look at the beta. "Hey Isaac, whose that terrible thrower now?"
Isaac glared at the two and started chasing them around the gym; while Scott and Boyd ran after them to make sure that he didn't hurt Stiles.
The Alpha sat back and simply watched them chase each other until he heard the side door to the gym creak open. His eyes widened and he commanded them to stop trying to kill each other but it was already too late.
Derek quickly vanished, leaving the five teens to try and explain what the heck happened to all of the dodge balls, which had all been deflated when Stiles was throwing them and Isaac decided to catch them with his claws. And lastly they also had to explain why they were all ditching class.
"Well I'm waiting," said a very angry and confused Mr. Rittenmier. All of the betas looked at each other and then all eyes were on Stiles. "Why are you all staring at me? You guys wrecked the gym; Scott and I are simply victims of circumstance. We were at the wrong place, at the wrong time, with the worst group of people imaginable."
Mr. Rittenmier stared deep into each of their eyes then picked up one of the deflated dodge balls. "What am I supposed to do about these? This will cost like $200 to fix and my paychecks already below minimum wage so you kids are going to have to pay for this some way or another."
They all exchanged nervous glances and began digging around in their pockets and came up with exactly $12.08.
"Can we perhaps write you a check or something?" asked Stiles. Mr. Rittenmier glared at him and snatched the twelve dollars out of Scott's hands. "Detention, today after school be back here by 3 o'clock."
Stiles looked around the room then back at their P.E. teacher, "Uh sir isn't detention supposed to be held in the library?"
Mr. Rittenmier's face began turning red from anger and stuck his hands out in front of Stiles face and pretended that he was choking him. "I swear to God Stilinski, I am not afraid to get fired from this awful job for attacking a student."
Stiles put his hands up in defeat and walked out of the gym with everybody else. Erica punched the locker beside Isaac and sunk to the floor. "This sucks."
Scott nodded in agreement and went to stand beside Stiles. All of a sudden Derek appeared with an amused look on his face.
"I can't believe that you all five of you managed to get detention," he said with a smirk. Boyd shook his head and pointed at the Alpha. "Well this would have never happened if you hadn't decided to have us do that stupid exercise during school."
Derek stared fiercely at Boyd and grabbed him by the shoulder, "I told you guys to quit running around like idiots, but nobody listened so why don't you all go to your next class before you get another detention."
The group of teens obeyed the Alpha's command and went off to their next classes.
"You know what Isaac this is all you fault," said Stiles. "If you hadn't decided to turn into a psycho this would have never happened." Isaac clenched his fists and breathed slowly in and out until the urge to hurt him subsided, but then he wondered how the hell he was supposed to deal with having two hours of detention with the ADD chipmunk that Scott called a best friend.
"This is going to be a long day…"
