Hello everyone!
I'm updating early to get a message out to anon who is a guest reviewer and I can not send them a PM. So I have to put my message in an AN, here is my message, anon, I did look to see how my story is formatted to read on a computer but also discovered that there is this set of buttons above the text where you can change the size of the text, wether the text is full, 3/4, or 1/2 page, the back ground is black or white, there is also a button that says TI, it changes the spacing between the lines in the text bellow. Just thought I should point that out to you incase you hadn't seen it. To everyone else, I love hearing from you all and hope you enjoy the new chapter!
With a heavy sigh I watched as the cops forced a drunken couple into the back of their squad cars.
"This is not our night."
"No it's not sweetie."
"I'm just glad tonight's over."
My bouncer nodded in agreement as we looked over at my poor car, the two idiots had started fighting right next to it and I was now missing the front windshield, the drivers side window, there were bullet holes all along the driver side. Needless to say I was pressing charges, especially when the tow truck showed up to tow it to the station as evidence.
"Do you have a ride home sweetie?"
I nodded.
"Yeah, I just have to call him."
My bouncer nodded, turning people away as they tried to enter the club as I pulled out my phone and called the one man that would help me.
"Hello?"
"Derek?"
I winced at how weak I sounded.
"Destiny? What's wrong?"
"I, some shit happened at Jungle and I need a ride home, please?"
"I'll be there in five."
"Thanks."
Ending the call I smiled at my bouncer.
"You can go home Matt, he'll be here soon, I'm just going to finish locking up."
"You sure hon?"
"Yeah, I'll be fine."
I smiled as he hugged me before getting in his car and leaving. Turning I quickly double-checked all of the doors to make sure they were locked before walking out the front door and locking it as the Camaro pulled up. Turning I walked over and took a seat in the passengers seat, smiling at Derek for a moment before feeling the weight of everything that happened that night and the potential damage it did for my clubs reputation, I pulled my knees to my chest and started crying, feeling the car take off for a few minutes before feeling a warm hand rubbing between my shoulders.
"It'll be ok Destiny."
I sniffled, my form shaking as the wolf at my side pulled the car to a stop, looking up I realized we were at the old Hale house.
"You're not living here, are you?"
I sighed when I didn't get a response, my voice rough from crying.
"Tell me what happened."
With a heavy sigh I told him everything that happened that night, from three of my employees calling in to the fight breaking out, when the idiots pulled out guns and started shooting, and finally the police showing up and taking my car. Hearing the car door open and close I looked over to see Derek had turned off the car and was walking over to my side of the car, reaching down I unbuckled myself and watched as he opened my door, bending down he picked me up out of the car before shutting my door. Smiling I wrapped my arms around his neck as he walked into his house.
"I can walk."
He smirked and continued to walk upstairs; turning to the right he placed me down on a surprisingly new mattress.
"You know I'm not sleeping with you, right?"
He scoffed and sat down next to me.
"I figured you would calm down better here than at home with your hyperactive brother and sheriff father."
I laughed.
"You have a point. Can I have my phone back?"
He smirked and handed me my phone as I sent a quick text to my dad, claiming to be at Matt's for the night so he wouldn't worry.
"Tell me you have some thick blankets around here somewhere? I'm cold."
He scoffed and nodded before standing up and disappearing out of the room, a few minutes later he appeared carrying three thick blankets and two pillows.
"That'll work."
He laughed as I helped him layout the blankets before kicking off my shoes and curling under our little set up, looking over I rolled my eyes at Derek.
"I'm not going to bite."
He scoffed before taking off his jacket and shoes and sliding under the blankets with me, looking over I realized he was stiffer than a board, rolling my eyes I rolled over and threw an arm around his waist while snuggling into his chest.
"See? This is much better."
"Yeah."
I smiled as I felt him wrap an arm around my waist before closing my eyes and falling asleep.
Hearing barking I looked around, my mind reeling until I realized where I was, spotting Derek I smiled at him as he looked out the window.
"What's wrong?"
"Scott's here. He wants help."
"Then help him."
He smiled down at me as I pulled one of the blankets closer; with a simple nod he walked downstairs as Stiles texted me.
R U ok?
I sighed.
Just fine…with Derek.
Course U R. Is Scott there?
Yep, he's asking 4 help.
I smiled when my phone fell silent, standing up I walked downstairs, looking at the remains of the once gorgeous house as I went, walking outside I smiled at the rain before focusing on Derek.
"Where's Scott?"
"I told him how to remember something."
I smirked.
"Look at you mister teacher."
"Shut up."
I laughed.
"Come on."
I looked up at him as his hands rested on my hips.
"Let's take a road trip, get away for awhile."
He laughed and nodded, motioning to the car causing me to squeal and run over the car, sliding into the passenger seat as the wolf shook his head and took a seat in the passenger side.
"Where to?"
"Where ever."
Derek laughed and pulled away from his house.
Looking around I smiled at Derek as he pulled into a gas station, it was ten o'clock at night, and my dad had given up on trying to convince me to go home. Stepping out of the car I giggled lightly.
"I'm going to get some tea, you want something?"
"I'm good."
I nodded and walked into the small convince store, quickly paying for an Arizona tea before walking back out to Derek, leaning against his car as he continued to fill the tank with gas. Taking a sip of my drink I paused when two SUV's appeared, the red one blocking our front and the white one blocking the back, boxing us in.
"Derek?"
He gave me a look that obviously said to be quiet. Watching the driver of the red SUV step out of his vehicle I moved a little closer to Derek, grabbing his hand for comfort. Hearing the driver and passenger of the white SUV step out we watched as they walked around and leaned against their vehicle. When the gas pump shut off Derek casually put the nozzle back in its holder before closing the gas cap and watching the driver from the red SUV closely.
"Nice ride. Black cars, though. Very hard to keep clean. I would definitely suggest a little more maintenance."
I watched as the older gentleman started cleaning Derek's windshield. Discreetly looking down I grabbed Derek's hand again, turning my body so the men wouldn't see it.
"If you have something this nice, you want to take care of it, right? Personally, I'm very protective of the things I love. But that's something I learned from my family. And you don't have much of that these days. Do you?"
I glared as Derek tightened his grip on my hand ever so slightly, never showing any emotion towards the man.
"There we go. You can actually look through your windshield now. See how that makes everything so much clearer?"
The man turned to walk away and I breathed a light sigh of relief only to cringe as Derek spoke up.
"You forgot to check the oil."
The man paused before turning around and looking at one of the men from the other SUV.
"Check the man's oil."
I watched as the man walked over before breaking in the drivers window, causing me to jump at the sudden action.
"Looks good to me."
"Drive safely, I'm sure the sheriff would like his daughter to be returned safe and sound."
I blinked in confusion as the trio climbed back into their cars and left, turning I glared at Derek.
"The hell was that?"
"Hunters, I need to get you home."
Looking up I was concerned at the sudden lack of emotion.
"Come on."
"But."
The look he gave me forced me to fall silent before climbing into the passenger seat, watching as Derek brushed off the glass in the driver's side before sitting down and driving off. The silence in the car was suffocating; every time I tried to break the silence Derek would grip the steering wheel a little tighter, shaking my head I sighed when my house came into view.
"Well, it was fun, till the hunters showed up. Be good."
He scoffed as I hugged him before slipping out of the car and into the house, smiling at Stiles as I walked in.
"You were gone for two days and you can't even say hi?"
"Hey little brother."
I giggled and hugged him.
"If it makes you feel better, I didn't sleep with him, and I had a ton of fun after what happened at the club."
"Ok, never tell me when you do or don't sleep with someone, and I'm glad you had fun."
Hope everyone enjoyed and remember to review!
