Ashlee's p.o.v
I jolt up in bed when I hear a familiar heartbeat comes in through my window.
"I'm not here to hurt you" Derek says, holding his hands up. Last time he came in my window..he dragged me out it, knocked me out and took me to his house. I glance at my door nervously.
"Scott's just down the hall" I tell him, just so he knows.
"I know" Derek says. "Did Erica apologise to you?" he asks.
"She did..thanks" I say.
"That was all her. I did my alpha duty, she disobeyed me and she was punished but I didn't tell her to apologise"
"She told me you did" I say, raising an eyebrow.
"I may have pushed her in that direction but she was sorry. She likes you" Derek tells me.
"Well..I guess I don't hate her as much I did before" I say. Derek chuckles a little.
"Good because it looks like we'll be joining forces"
"You walked away" I remind him.
"I didn't say no" he says.
"Okay Derek" I say.
"I'm sorry about..in the pool" he says awkwardly. I scoff.
"Sure you are" he grins a little. "Well..it's late so.." I say, in bed and once again in my sleeping clothes. Derek comes over to me, I back up a little as he's getting really close. He sits down on the edge of my bed, watching me like he's waiting for some sort of reaction. "Uh.." I say. He looks down at my lips and back up to my eyes. He wets his own lips with his tounge and holy crap..that was a great view. He looks to my lips again as if asking for permission. He starts to lean in..wait. He's going to..kiss me? I wet my own lips with my tounge. My eyes flutter closed when I can feel his hot breath on my lips. I can tell by the speeding of my heart that I want him to kiss me even if I can't admit it out loud. He lightly presses his lips to mine, his stubble tickling my chin. The kiss lasts no more than a second.
"Thanks for saving me" he says quietly. When I open my eyes, wide with shock and suprise, he's gone. The only evidence left is the window open, letting the cold air in. Huh..okay..
..
I walk towards Boyd with Scott. Isaac and Erica, they tested Lydia at the school today. Derek thinks it's her, he thinks Lydia's the kanima and they want to kill her. I can't let that happen.
"I need to talk to Derek" Scott says to Boyd.
"Talk to me" the much larger, brown boy says.
"I don't want to fight" Scott says.
"Good, because i'm twice the size of you" Boyd says as we stop in front of him.
"True" Scott says.
"Really, really true" I say, looking up at Boyd's face.
"But i'm twice as fast" Scott says. Scott quickly tackles Boyd to the ground and he gets angry, throwing Scott off him and getting up.
"She failed the test" Derek's voice makes me jump. I avoid Derek's eyes..I have no clue what's going on with us. He came to my house, kissed me and left. I haven't told anyone and I don't think I will. We didn't go through all that shit at pool, keeping him alive, just for Scott to kill him over a stupid kiss. Then again, it was probably just a thank you. He was grateful because of what I did back at the pool. It's probably nothing. He's just grateful. Scott and Derek argue..as usual. "Who said I was going to kill her?" Derek asks. Shit. Scott moves to leave but Boyd tackles him to the ground. I growl at the larger man. Boyd's gaze turns to me. "No, not her" Derek says in a whisper, I don't think it was meant to but it catches my ears too.
"You're wrong about Lydia" I say, finally looking at Derek, choosing to focus on his green eyes instead of his whole face.
"Sometimes the shape you take represents the person that you are" Derek says.
"Lydia isn't a homicidal lizard!" I snap, finding myself defending Lydia..the girl may be growing on me. Derek holds his hand out to Scott. I watch him closely as Scott takes it and Derek pulls him up. If these two weren't always at each other's throats, they could be friends..pack brothers, like Scott and Stiles are.
"Even Stiles calls her cold-blooded" Derek says. Scott suggests she's immune and that kicks off another arguement. Derek tells Scott he can't let Lydia live.
"We have to go, now" I say, grabbing Scott's hand.
"I was hoping to convince you but..I wasn't counting on it" Scott smirks at Derek. Yeah..we had a back-up plan too. Derek looks over at me. I raise an eyebrow before taking off with Scott right beside me.
..
Stiles locks all the locks on our door. Then he jams a chair under the handle. I roll my eyes as he has to explain to Lydia why he's doing it. Great explaination Stiles, murders and robberies. Scott's not here yet, Coach called him into his office, he told me to go ahead.
"Uh..Ashlee?" Allison says.
"What is it?" I ask. She moves the curtians to reveal Derek, Erica, Isaac and Boyd standing outside. I sigh. "Jesus Derek" I mutter.
"We just want Lydia" Derek says to me.
"I'm not giving you Lydia"I say quietly, knowing he'll hear me.
"We're going to take her"
"I'm going to stop you"
"You're going to try" Derek corrects.
"I'm not letting you kill her, she's done nothing wrong, she's not that thing that attacked us at the pool"
"Yes, she is. I can't let her live" Derek says.
"You'll have to get through me first" I say strongly. He's quiet for a few seconds.
"I know that" he sighs. We don't say anything to each other after that. Stiles tells Allison to shoot one of them.
"Which one?" Allison asks.
"Derek, shoot Derek" Stiles says.
"Don't" I tell them. "He can hear everything you're saying, you'll just piss them off even more"
"What are we suppsoed to do?" Allison asks. "Sit around and wait for them to come in and kill Lydia?"
"They are not killing anyone" I assure her. "If they come in here..I can take them"
"Erica, Isaac and Boyd, yeah but Derek, no" Stiles says.
"I can take them, all of them" I assure them, trying to keep them calm. I know there is no way in hell I can take all 3 betas and the alpha at once.
"Isaac's gone!" Allison says, jumping away from the window in fear. She brings her bow up. Isaac grabs her from behind and throws the crossbow from her hands, hitting her head againist the wall. I growl and jump at the beta. Like Erica, he's sloppy. It isn't too long before i'm throwing him out the window, his body littered with glass now laying at Derek's feet. He looks down at Isaac then back up at me. I climb through the broken window to stand on the porch.
"Like I said, you're not taking Lydia" I say, eyes glowing golden at the other betas and Derek. Another is missing..Erica. It isn't long before Allison's joining me on the porch, holding Erica. I look at the girl apologetically before taking her from Allison and tossing her down by Isaac. I don't know how Allison did it but Erica's paralyzed..Allison can hold her own. Then Scott's joining us, Stiles as well. We all stand tall, meeting the pack's eyes evenly.
"I think i'm finally getting why you keep refusing me Scott. You're not an omega, you're already an alpha, of your own pack" Derek praises."But you know you can't beat me" he grins. I growl and step forward but Scott catches my arm.
"I can hold you off until the cops get here" he says, all of us hearing police sirens. Derek's face drops. We all look up and see the kanima. It hisses at us and takes off.
"Get them out of here" Derek tells Boyd.
"Would someone please tell me what the hell is going on?!" Lydia says, storming over to us.
"It's Jackson" Scott realises. That's why his body rejected the bite but he didn't die..
..
The others leave quickly, Boyd taking the betas away. Scott goes after Derek and I follow. We come to an empty building top. Derek's fighting off the kanima. Scott roars and jumps in to help as the alpha is having trouble. And of course, because Scott jumped in, I do as well. It's still able to fight the three of us off. It leaps onto a beam and uses it's tail to smash a light, burning hot sparks splaying over us. Derek grabs me and shields me with his body. Before I have a chance to thank him, Chris shows up, shooting it. I'm still unsure about him..but he has a sort of 'treaty' with Scott. As long as that's there..i'm fine with him. Him only. I don't trust Victoria Argent one bit. The kanima drops to the ground, for like a second before it's up and attacking Chris. We watch as Gerard faces it, not scared in anyway. Scott tackles it away from him before running off, me by his side. I wanted to make sure Derek was okay but there was no time.
..
The kanima attacks the club Jungle. We're too late, he's paralyzed about 6 people and Derek's attacked him. Stiles calls the police while Scott and I follow a blood trail to find Jackson lying on the concrete, between two cars, bleeding out and naked. Gross. Somehow..I don't really know how, we've got Jackson cuffed in a police van in the middle of the woods. I'm staying out of it, not ever going in the van..this is going to back-fire. Definately.
"We need to go, right now!" Stiles yells, dropping Jackson's phone into the grass.
"What's happening?" I ask.
"They're coming, the police are coming!" Stiles panics. In an instant, Allison and I squeeze in the front seat and Stiles takes off, Scott at the hospial talking to Danny. Good old Danny..wish I could have gone.
..
What a way to top off the day! Jackson got out. And the sun'd down and it's dark.
..
Scott comes in, head hanging.
"What happened?" I ask like I know nothing. Like I said, not getting involved. I heard the police got involved and I was gone.
"Scott and Stiles have a restraining order, from Jackson" Mum says hotly. Ouch. "They kidnapped him, put him in a prison transport van and left him in the woods, as a prank!" Mum's yelling now.
"Hey, Mum.." I say, putting a hand on her shoulder. She looks at me before sighly, visably deflattening.
"Go to bed Scott" Mum sighs.
"Goodnight..I love you" he says, going up to his room. Mum turns to me.
"He's okay, right?" she asks.
"Of course" I say, grabbing her hands. "I've been looking out for him, he's okay" Mum nods.
"Okay" she sighs. "I'm going to bed as well. Goodnight"
"Night Mum" I say, watching the stressed woman walk away. I knew it would back-fire.
..
Derek's p.o.v (finally;P)
"They might know more about the kanima than we do" I tell Isaac and Erica. "That's why I need one of you to get on their good side"
"Which one, Scott, Stiles or Ashlee?" Isaac asks. "Because I can get on Ashlee's good side" Isaac grins. Hormonal teenager. He better stay away from her.
"That's fine Isaac, Derek's got her covered" Erica says, her and Isaac chuckling a little.
"Shut up" I ground out, eyes turning red. They shut up but I can still feel their amusement. I go into my own train car, laying down. It's been a long day, we all need some sleep. I don't have Ashlee 'covered'. So what, I kissed her? She saved my life..it was jusitified. And noone knows about that but us. Well, if she was to tell anyone, it would be Scott and i'm not missing any vital body parts so he doesn't know yet. Besides, it was barely a kiss. A peak, if that. I barely touched her lips. Not that I want to kiss her lips properly or anything..no..they're not soft and full. She's Scott's sister! We could never be anything! I don't even want to be! I don't like her. I didn't want her to drown..so what? That doesn't mean anything-
"Derek! We're trying to sleep, stop with the brooding" Erica calls out. I growl half-heartedly at the betas. Having betas is like having children.
..

Little bit of Derek's p.o.v, very, very little bit. As you can see, they're both very confused about their feelings, uh awkwardness, it's the best. Favourite, follow and review!
