I'm so sorry about all the angst but if you hang on, I promise more fluff in the future

Enjoy :-)

December 29th

Derek's POV

When I woke up I was shackled to something and I looked over to see the pups shackled as well.

"Derek, Derek, you awake?" Jackson asked sleepily

"Yeah, what happened?"

"I don't know but my guess would be knockout gas" he replied

"Where's Stiles?" I asked hastily

"Why he's right here" a voice said from the door "bring him in boys" he shouted

Three men walked in carrying a body, it was Stiles. I felt his pain, so much pain, and I smelt blood

"Stiles, Stiles are you okay?" Scott asked. He didn't answer. The smell of his pain and blood were too much for me I was losing control, I transformed and broke out of the shackles. I ignored the voices from the pups trying to calm me down when I walked over to Stiles, returning to normal and took his pain.

"Derek" he whispered

"Yeah, Stiles I'm here" I was so happy he is alive, I started crying

"Don't cry Sourwolf, it's just a scratched" he joked

"Stiles this is all my fault, I'm so sorry" I brought him into a hug

"No its not, its Deucalion's fault, he was the one that sent his men on me, don't blame yourself" he said brushing his fingers against your cheek.

"Um I hate to break up this little moment here, but we are still SHACKLED TO THE WALL!"

I broke them free one by one and I told Stiles to stay put

"Did you see his face, god why does he care about that pathetic little human?" a voice laughed

"Because he's my mate" I shouted before we started attacking. Scott walked away with a broken arm that healed there and then, Jackson bled a lot but was fine, Boyd walked away without a scratch and I made the rest stay with Stiles. We were on our way back to Stiles when Scott pulled me back.

"Did you mean what you said?" he asked

"When?"

"When you said that Stiles was your mate, did you mean it?"

"Yeah, he's my mate and even if he hates me I'll still always be there for him" I explained

"Good, I'm glad and by the way I know that you would never hurt Stiles intentionally, I believe you about the list" I nodded and we returned to Stiles.

We had Deaton and Mellissa check everyone over. The pups were fine but Stiles, had bruises everywhere, bruised ribs and broken fingers, they said he was lucky he didn't walk out with broken legs or even brain damage, and its all my fault.

"We need to talk, meet me at my house in an hour" Stiles said before leaving with his dad.

I thought about it a lot and if I stay with him I'll put him in loads of danger, I can't do that to him, he means too much to me. An hour later I walk to Stiles' house knowing that heart will be broken when leaving.

Stiles' POV

I invited Derek over, hopefully we can talk things out and maybe get together again, I miss him so much. He arrived right on time and surprise, surprise he came through the window.

"Hey"

"Hi, you know you can't sit down, I don't charge" I joked "You probably know already why I asked you here"

"Yeah and I agree"

"What do you agree with?" I asked confusingly

"I agree that we should be friends" After he said friends I could feel my heart break

"Yeah, same, we were better as friends anyway" I explained holding back the tears.

"Yes we are and I really would like to get back to that"

"Me too" I let out, I could handle much more

"I should be going but I'll see you later" Derek explained before giving me a hug, I put everything I had into the hug because it's probably going to be one of the last apart from special occasions.

"Bye" he said before slipping out of the window, I waited a few minutes to make sure that he is out of hearing ranged and I burst into tears and cried myself to sleep. I guess Deucalion was right, I'm nothing to him just an annoying pet

Back to Derek's POV

He agreed with me, I knew he hated me I didn't go home, I ran to the apartment by the train station and slept there, I didn't want to face anyone, I burst into tears and cried myself to sleep.

I know I know I'm sorry!
