A/N: Two POV'S again but this time it's Skye's and Derek's
Skye's POV
I went way over the speed limit the whole way home and parked the Camaro outside Derek's loft with a skid then ran inside quickly filled with the urge to be with my mate and make sure he was actually alive
"This was not how I imagined our first date to be" I froze as the teacher's words echoed around me
At first all I felt was possessiveness over Derek but then stopped and thought more about it maybe this teacher was a better fit for Derek than me, shaking my head I walked into the room and took in the scene in front of me, Ms Blake was kneeling on the ground and Derek was lying shirtless on his bed, I felt my heart shatter instantly thinking the worst, I saw Derek stir as my scent must have filled the air, he turned his head and looked at me standing in the doorway and a mix of emotions flowed between us, relief, happiness, anger, jealousy and sadness
"Oh Skye…" Ms Blake said noticing me for the first time "I didn't hear you come in" I broke my eye contact with Derek and turned to look at her
"Yeah the door…the door was open"
"Uh…do you know where the first aid kit is?"
"Under the bed" I replied, she nodded and quickly reached under the bed but her eyes widened at the first thing she pulled out, a box of condoms, she looked at me as I turned bright red at the sight of my teacher finding our almost empty box of condoms
"Uh…that's not the first aid kit" Ms Blake laughed trying to lighten the tension then quickly pulled out the kit and opened it, I watched as she attempted to clean his wounds but Derek kept moving away
"I…I'm just gonna go" I whispered moving back towards the door "I'm glad you're okay Derek"
"No you should stay, I'll go" Ms Blake said standing up
"Wait…don't go…" Derek said weakly, both of us looked at him
"Who are you talking to?" Ms Blake asked and I felt her look at me but I was staring at the floor as started bitting my lip fearing the answer he was about to give
"S…Sk…Skyez" Derek whispered, I shot my head up and looked at him and bit back the smile that was trying to grace my face but the fact that Derek wanted me to stay was enough to force it out so ignoring the teacher I walked over to Derek and slowly cleaned the wounds, I could feel Derek's intense gaze on me, I cleared my throat and continued cleaning the soon to be infected wounds
I could feel Ms Blake watching the two of us closely, I ignored her presence and reached for the stitcher kit then instantly began to stitch up his wounds I had stitched up many dogs and cats at the clinic but no one who was human, granted Derek was not a human but it still freaked me out and I knew he wouldn't be able to heal on his own
I heard movement on my left side causing my gaze to snap away from the stiches to the teacher backing out of the room, Ms Blake's eyes landed on me and for a split second, hatred flashed across the young teacher's eyes and I felt nothing but hate and jealousy rolling off her in waves, I turned my head back to my injured mate ignoring the teacher as she left the loft
After I finished stitching Derek up I looked up and noticed he had passed out which made me panic briefly but I let out a sigh of relief when the sound of his heart beating filled my ears, I moved over to the table sitting on it and stared out the window
I got out my phone, scrolling through the contacts contemplating whether or not to call Scott but was it my place to do this, would Scott believe me without proof, I sighed again putting the phone back into my pocket just as I heard Derek shifting on the bed and groaning as he sat up caused me to break away from my thoughts, quickly wiping my tears I moved to his side
"That's not a good idea" I said trying to keep him from standing "You could rip the stitches"
"I have to find the others" he argued "They think I'm dead"
"Let's get through the night first, okay?" I watched as every movement caused him pain and it was making the dull ache I have had all day get worse, he was suffering and there was nothing I could do to help him
"They need to know" Derek said looking at me
"If the Alpha Pack finds you they'll finish what they started" I replied
I saw him taking in my appearance and knew my eyes no longer held that sparkle that was reserved whenever he came into my line of view, instead they were shining with tears just waiting to fall, my brown hair was limp and thrown carelessly into a messy ponytail, I had no makeup on and knew dark circles were present under my eyes from lack of sleep
"Do you have any idea how bad you look?" I told him to break the silence "If it wasn't for my stitches you'd be like one giant open wound and to be completely honest I'm pretty sure I'm dreaming this entire thing up and when I wake up…" I swallowed desperate to keep tears from falling "…you'll still be dead and I'll be alone" I felt him grab my hand and pull me towards him then placed my hand over his heart and looked into my glassy eyes
"Do you feel this?" I nodded after feeling his heartbeat under the palm of my hands "That's real Skye, all of this…is real I'm right here in front of you and I have no intentions on leaving you any time soon"
"You died" I sobbed "I've never felt more alone, more…empty" Derek pulled me onto his lap and I could feel he was desperate to have me closer
"Time will fix me" Derek paused looking down at me then exhaled loudly loosening his grip on my hand but I didn't move it "You shouldn't be here"
"Why's that?"
"Because like you said, it's not safe, the Alphas being here I'm too dangerous to be around even by you, you should leave"
"I'm not going anywhere I'm your mate and I'm staying with you, no matter what"
"Skyler, everyone around me...everyone gets hurt"
"I've been hurt before Der"
"Not like this" he argued, I shook my head then lightly kissed him before pulling away and looked into his eyes
"Derek…I would rather die the worst possible death imaginable a thousand times over then have to live one more second apart from you because trust me when I say that dying is much less painful then being away from you or thinking you were dead, it felt exactly like you said it would, it felt like my heart was ripped from my chest"

MA+ warning, if sex scenes make you uncomfortable skip over it
Derek leaned down and captured my lips with his own, I responded back instantly and ran my hands through his black hair and felt his hands slide underneath my shirt and slowly peel it off, I moved so I was straddling his hips and pushed him down onto the bed gently then reattached our lips instantly, Derek was quick to flip me onto the mattress and hover over me
He was already shirtless so I had no problem gently running my fingers over his abs and his arms, every muscle on his body, why couldn't he always be shirtless I began to run my fingers through his hair and we stopped, touching nose to nose trying to catch our breath
He started kissing all the way from my neck down to my navel, he took his time kissing what seemed like each and every part of my body and when he got down to my navel and gave me a little love bite, I let out something that was the mixture of a gasp and a moan as he then reached to take off my pants and slid them down my legs
Derek stared at me so I smiled at him, bringing his lips back down to mine then made my way down to his jeans, unbuttoning them and helping him get them off, he moaned at being release from the tight denim
Derek suddenly ripped off my underwear and quickly unhooked my bra, leaving me in my naked glory in front of him I closed my eyes about to protest because those were my favourite underwear but I heard a familiar growl making me open them and saw Derek's eyes glowing red, his fangs extending
"Shh hey" I said and sat myself up "Only look at me, it's just us"
I began kissing him again and he responded, I forced him underneath me so I could do the same thing he had done, I kissed all over his body stopping at every muscle until he flipped me over again and that's when he pulled off his underwear and pushed into me and it felt like I was on heaven to have him with me again in this way, he really is my one true love and will be the only one I'll ever love in this way
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I ran my hands over Derek's now smooth skin as we were lying in a tangle of limbs after our last few rounds of sex, he had completely healed, I smiled as Derek nuzzled my neck before peppering it with kisses then he nipped my pulse point causing me to gasp, I moved my head and captured his lips with mine as his hand ran down my side but then my ringtone blared through the silent room, sighing I pulled away and grabbed my ringing phone and saw Stiles name and face flashing
"What the hell do they want?" I sighed as Derek kissed my shoulder
"Ignore it"
"I can't…if it's stupid I'll hang up, hi Stiles what's up?" I said answering the phone
"Skye?" Stiles asked slightly panicky
"Yeah"
"There's something wrong" I sat up keeping the sheets covering me
"What do you mean there's something wrong?"
"This hotel that we're at for some reason has a pull on werewolves and they're all trying to kill themselves"
"Is everyone okay?" I asked panicking myself now, I couldn't handle it if someone got hurt now
"Everyone is but Scott…I'm looking at him right now, he's drenched himself in gasoline and is holding a flare" I gasped
"Oh my god!"
"I'm putting you on speaker, maybe you can help"
"How, I'm in Beacon Hills!" I tried to keep my own emotions in check
"You can control people's emotions try controlling his"
"I…Stiles I don't…I don't know how to do that or how to even control it or if it works at this distance" I replied quickly because I was borderline panic attack, Derek rubbed my arm in hopes to calm me but it wasn't working, my twin brother was trying to kill himself and there was nothing I could do
"Please try" he begged so I tried to calm down myself then closed my eyes and took a few deep breaths before opening them up revealing my bright red eyes, I couldn't feel much all I felt was hopelessness and sadness
"There's no hope" Scott's voice echoed through the loft, I hadn't even realized Derek put the phone on speaker
"What do you mean, Scott?" Allison asked "There's always hope"
"Not for me" Scott replied making me cry silent tears "Not for Derek"
"Scott…" I said trying to keep my voice from breaking "Derek's fine…he's alive it's okay"
"See?" Allison said "Everything's fine"
"Every time I try to fight back, it just gets worse" Scott told her "People keep getting hurt, people keep getting killed"
"Scott, listen to me okay?" Stiles started "This isn't you all right, this is someone inside your head telling you to do this, okay now…"
"What if it isn't, what if it is just me, what if doing this actually the best thing that I could do for everyone else?" Scott replied, I shook my head as I started crying harder
"No…no Scott how could this be the best thing, if you're not here I'd be lost, Scotty your my twin brother I need you?" I sobbed
"It all started that night, the night I got bitten" Scott said ignoring me "You remember the way it was before that, we were…we were nothing, we weren't popular, we weren't good at lacrosse" I could hear Scott shaking "We weren't important, we were no one"
"Scott…"
"Maybe I should just be no one again, no one at all"
"Scott please, please don't do this" I begged as Derek clutched me tighter
"Scott just listen to me, okay?" Stiles said "You're not no one, okay you're someone, you're…Scott you and Skye…you're my best friends okay, we need you, Scott you're my brother all right, so…so if you're gonna do this then I think you're gonna have to take me with you" NO I can't lose them both, I close my eyes feeling like I was in physical pain again, they were both my brothers and I couldn't lose them
"Stiles!" I called out not ready to hear them do this
"Try Skyez" Stiles told me so I took a deep breath focused on Scott's emotions, I felt despair and worthlessness fill me and began to think of all the happy memories the three of us had, it consumed me and filled me with warmth, I opened my eyes as they glowed an intense red but the last thing I heard before falling unconscious was Lydia screaming
"NO!"
I gasped as I sat up and looked around the loft and relaxed as Derek's sleeping form came into view, I then quickly grabbed my phone and checked my messages wanting to know what happened, I saw Derek had typed a message saying that I had over exerted myself and passed out but I was fine, Stiles had responded that everyone else was okay and that the flare flew into the gasoline but no one was hurt
I got out of the bed and headed towards the bathroom and looked at my reflection in the mirror my skin no longer looked pale and sickly in fact it had a glow to it, my eyes had that sparkle again all because Derek was back, I adjusted Derek's T-shirt and looked back at my reflection as a cut appeared on my cheek and blood slowly dripped from the wound that wasn't healing
"It's your fault you know" my voice said from behind me, I let out a shriek of surprise as I quickly spun around, I was looking at another version of me in front of me and she had the same cut on her cheek that I had
"What is this?" I asked her wearily
"You don't deserve to live" she told me
"I…I don't understand…"
"Nobody needs you, your useless" I shook my head
"No I'm not useless" I saw Scott and Stiles appear besides the other me
"She's right, Skye you know she is, you're the one who shouldn't be alive" this Scott said
"Scott…how can you say that…I…I'm needed here, Derek needs me, you guys need me" I said with tears pouring down my face
"No we don't" Stiles told me "No one needs you Skye…Scott and I have replaced you with Allison and Lydia, Lydia replaced you with Allison, Derek can replace you with Ms Blake…you're not needed" I fell to my knees, Scott held out his hand revealing a shard of glass
"You aren't needed here…you're not important" Scott said as I shakily grabbed the piece of glass that reeked of wolfsbane and held it in my hand
Derek's POV
I sat straight up when I heard glass breaking and looked over at Skye only to see that she wasn't there that's when I smelled blood and shot out of bed running towards the bathroom
"Skye!" I shouted trying to open the door but it was locked "Skyler, open the door!" I yelled as I started pounding on the door but when I didn't get a response I gathered all my strength and broke down the door
I saw her sitting on the floor with a shard of glass in her shaking hand, her brown eyes never moved from the piece of glass and the bloody hand holding it, I looked at the mirror and noticed it broken and smelled the wolfsbane before I saw it dripping from the shard
"What are you doing?" I asked her walking a little closer, she shook her head
"I'm not important…"
"What, what are you talking about?" she was sounding like Scott
"I shouldn't even be alive, everything that's happened is my fault" I shook my head
"No Skye…nothing's your fault"
"But it is…Scott…he got bit because I was with him, you…you almost died because Deucalion wants me, if I wasn't here none of that would have happened, everyone would be alive and be happy" I kneeled in front of her
"I wouldn't be…Skyler if you weren't here…I would never be happy" she shook her head
"You could have her…"
"Her?" I asked
"Ms Blake…why wouldn't you want her, I mean she's beautiful, smart, a little weird but you can get over that and she likes to help people"
"No…Skye she would never be enough for me"
"Why not?" I knew this wasn't her, like Stiles said this was something in their heads
"She's not you" Skye finally looked up at me with her wide brown doe eyes so I gently cupped her face "Baby, she will never be anywhere close to you"
"R…really?" I nodded
"No one will ever be able to replace you" her grip loosened on the shard of glass so I gently pried it out of her hand as tears fell down her face but I was quick to wipe them away "Do you really blame yourself for all that?" she nodded
"I've always blamed myself, deep down I knew it had something to do with me but…I never really knew why, I've always felt like I was a part of something bigger" I snorted out a small chuckle and sat next to her
"You know I've always wondered why I ended up with you as a mate, what could I possibly have done right to end up with someone like you, with everything that's happened in my life…with everything I've done I don't deserve someone like you, then I get a glimpse inside your head…and I see that you're just as messed up as I am" Skye let out a laugh at my words "And I think that's why we're together, I need someone like you, someone so strong yet extremely kind to balance me out and you need someone who understands what it's like to feel guilt over something outside your control, someone who can piece you back together again, not just on the outside but on the inside as well, just like you've done with me"
"I've never told anyone that…no one but you knows I blame myself for everything that's happened to us"
"I'm gonna tell you the same thing you told me…well close to it at least, you can't help what you are and it's not your fault at all"
"Thank you" she sniffled, I pulled her to me by her waist and lightly kissed her temple
"Now let's get you back to bed" she nodded and allowed me to pick her up bridal style
Skye's POV
When Derek picked me up, I turned my head to face the mirror and let out a surprised gasp, in the broken mirror was a reflection of a bald slashed up face
"What?" Derek asked stopping, I looked up at him before looking back at the mirror and noticed there was no reflection
"I thought I saw something…must be my imagination"
"You sure?"
"Yeah, let's just go back to bed…I'm exhausted" he nodded and walked towards his bed and gently set me down the got into his side, I snuggled closer to him as he put his arms around me and for the moment everything was perfect just the two of us lying together wrapped in a tight embrace and for just a moment we could pretend there was no one else in the world but us and could face reality tomorrow
A/N: Sorry that this is such a short chapter, I found it hard to add scene's since this episode was mainly focused on the motel Scott and Stiles were at and Derek was only seen for a little while so I added as much as I could, so I hope you like the scenes I did add and change to fit the Skye's & Derek's story
