"Chalk Outline" by Three Days Grace

I've been cursed
I've been crossed
I've been beaten by the ones that get me off
I've been cut
I've been opened up
I've been shattered by the ones I thought I loved

Derek tried to resist the urge to grab Stiles and pull him to him but he couldn't and desperatly reached out to Stiles. He growled in frustration as his hand went right through the other.

"Derek calm down." Stiles said stepping forward. He reached out and placed his hand on the now Alpha wolf's face. Derek was happy to at least feel something.

"Stiles..why?"

"I don't need to answer that Derek you know why...you all do." Stiles added the last part bitterly making everyone in the room flinch. "I tried Derek, hell I even spoke to Mrs. McCall and Mr. Argent."

Both parents winced looking away feeling shame at having ignored the boy. They may not have bullied him but they had ignored him just like everyone else.

"Why didn't you..you could have talked to me." Derek finally grolwed.

"I didn't want to put you through what Micheal went through." Stiles admitted.

"Stiles what are you talking about?" Derek said confused. "How do know about my cousin?"

"I think he's had one to many hits to the head over the years." Jessica snorted. "Take a good look at me, sourcub, and tell me who I am."

Derek looked confused but the change in nickname made something register in his brain. "You."

"We have a winner, and here I thought you were all eye brows and scowly faces." Jessica teased before smiling sadly "And for your information...I didn't know, gods I didn't know. But had I'd known, I'd have knocked creeper wolf there for a loop and made sure he kept his comments and his creepy smiles to his self."

"And people wondered where I get the mouthiness from." Stiles chuckled

You left me here like a chalk outline
On the sidewalk waiting for the rain
To wash away
(Wash away)
You keep coming back to the scene of the crime
But the dead can't speak and there's nothing left to say anyway
All you left behind
Is a chalk outline

"I'm sorry." Derek said leaning more into Stiles touch desperately wishing the hand was warm and alive. It was driving him insane not hearing Stiles heartbeat. "I shouldn't have given up being Alpha, I shouldn't have run away."

"No you shouldn't have but you did and now you have to fix what's been done." Jessica said though she moved to hover over Scott and Allison who both were properly waking up and looking at her with fear. "So sourcub do you know why you are the Alpha and the stupid one here isn't anymore?"

"No." Derek admitted. "I just know the power shifted."

"True Alpha or no if you act like a coward or abandon your pack and your pack does not recognize you as Alpha or any kind of leader you will lose it." Jessica replied when Scott opened his mouth. "And don't get me started on the little slut there."

"You have no right." Allison growled

"Oh stupid girl I have every right." Jessica replied before flicking her hand and suddenly Allison was off the floor slamming into a wall knocking glass and other things down onto her as she collapsed to the floor. Chris hated his self but he jerked forward a moment like he would go to her aid but stopped.

"Don't make too much of a mess please." Deaton spoke up.

"Don't even dare Alan. You are still on my shit list." Jessica said.

I've been cold
In the crypt
But not as the cold as the words across your lips
You'll be sorry baby
Some day
When you reach across the bed where my body used to lay

"You know her?" Scott asked.

"I trained her, she was suppose to take her mother's place after she died." Deaton admitted.

"You were suppose to train Stiles too but so far I've seen that woman do more then you and she's not suppose to even be here." Jessica replied.

"I..I know." Deaton said with a sigh.

"You failed as a watcher but at least this time maybe you'll do better." she sighed. "Now Derek we don't have much time for this I've got places to be."

"And someone to find." Peter added.

"Oh I know where he is, I can't go to him. Not yet but he forgave you, despite the fact you messed up."

"Sis? You've seen him?" Stiles asked but didn't move from Derek. He pulled his hand back and Derek couldn't help but let out a whine. "I'm not going anywhere Sourwolf." he told the other gently

"Felt not seen. I've got to earn that right." she replied. "But right now it doesn't matter. Derek you are the Alpha now. You've got to make the Hale pack back to what it was."

"You make it sound like it's easy." Derek muttered still staying close to Stiles.

"It is when you know what to do." Jessica replied. "But right now you've got to worry about fixing what problems you currently have."

It took several minutes of explaining but the others had to express what they should have all along to Stiles. Jessica wouldn't explain and that seemed to bother Peter and Deaton the most but it was suppose to help them and Stiles.

No one wanted to speak or move as Stiles sat his self down on the table and waited with Derek standing as close as he could.

It was quite but Jackson surprisingly was the first to speak.

"I'm sorry." he said his voice breaking. "I promise I'll do better, whatever you want. Just..fuck I'm sorry."

Stiles sighed and looked at his sister then said.

"I'm sorry, I didn't tell you everything about your parents but..they loved you."

"It doesn't matter. I should have been thankful and happy. Not even my best frined told me what you did. I needed to hear the truth but without you..I'm just going to be a stupid moron, no better then an omega."

"You aren't an omega. You give every one hell but you aren't the omega of our pack Jackson." Stiles replied with a shake of his head.

"The only omega we have is Scott." Derek put in earning a squawk from the boy before he shut up at everyone's glares. "And he's lucky to be that. I ought to let Peter finish him the fuck off."

"And no one would blame you." Jessica muttered earning a glare from her brother. "Shutting up."

"But Jackson you are not an omega." Stiles went on to say. "and Danny you aren't a clone of him. So stop that thought right now."

"How did you...never mind you always knew..and I should have known." Danny said. "I'm sorry..I just..you.."

"I know but Danny..I could have talked to anyone but I liked you..I tried to ask you..many many times and you just..you turned into a bigger bastard then Jackson ever was." Stiles replied his tone sharp making Jackson whine and Danny wince but they took the sharp words and accepted them. They were true. "But..I forgive you both." he added with a sigh.
