Summary: Derek and Chloe are experiencing depression. Tori used a spell to put Chloe to sleep so she would not hurt herself.

Derek's POV
I slipped my last T-shirt into my bag. Clay the packs beta has a mate that was sweet enough to wash all of my clothes before I came home. I grabbed my bag and headed down stairs. As I neared the kitchen I smelled the delicious sweet smell of food. Ellen, Clay's mate, stood over the stove grilling a sandwich. Beside her was a small mountain of grilled cheeses. I reached around her and grabbed one.
"I'm making these for you go ahead and take them." She laughed as I continued to grab the whole plate.
"Thank you Ellen." I tried to say around the grilled cheese in my mouth.
"You're welcome." She said as she walked around the table to kiss my cheek and ruffle my hair.
Ellen is the closes thing I have to a mom. Kit is like my dad. Simon is my little brother. Tori is my little sister. Jeremy like my older brother and Clay is like the weird uncle.
And Chloe, well Chloe is my mate. My unprotected mate, the reason I need to get home.
I gave Ellen a kiss and climbed into the Taxi.
"Buffalo, New York Please."
Simon POV
Derek could not get here slow enough.
Don't get me wrong, I miss my brother but the situation is just not ideal. Last night Chloe had a major panic attack and Tori used a spell to knock her out. She still isn't awake.
If Derek gets home and Chloe isn't alive and well, were all screwed. The wolf side of Derek will come out and tear us a new one.
We have tried everything from patting her face to pouring ice cold water all over her. How is that for your ALS ice bucket challenge? Tori wants to slap her, but if she even puts a scratch on Chloe Derek will have her head on a stick.
"Hey Dad! Time check!"
"Around 30 minutes" He yelled back from the office.
He has been locked in there for hours researching a way to break the spell. No luck so far.
I walked into Derek's room and sat beside the love of his life because for now I am her protector.
Kits POV
No.
NO!
NO!
I have been in my office library since 5 AM, looking through a bunch of useless old spell books. Normally I am more patient, but I have failed Derek. He protects my family and he is my son. He never asks for much, but before he left all he asked was that I look after Chloe until he could get back.
Every book said she should have already woken up. We tried to wake her up in a human way, then we tried using our magic, and I even made her a herbal tea. Nothing has worked.
I don't know what else to do.
I tried searching Google
Search:How to wake up a person in deep sleep
The same old sleep tricks came up like loud noise and cold water
Search:How to wake up a person in deep sleep safely
You would be surprised how many of the first search were dangerous to her health.
Search:How to wake up a person in deep sleep magically
All that came up were hoax from a bunch of crazy hippies
Search:How to wake a werewolf's mate
Now that search was interesting. Through many of the articles only one thing keep coming up. The wolf would have to kiss its mate awake.
"Simon! Tori!"
There was a loud crash and in cam running Simon, a few moments later Tori.
"I have been researching and I found nothing we could do with magic."
"Oh man were dead. Derek is going to kill us all! He will be so ticked off. He just got his mate and we took her away! Well, not we, but Tor! It's all her fault. I say we throw her under the bus first! And-"
"Hey! I wasn't finished! Magic will not wake her up, but Derek can. She is the mate of a werewolf. I looked through the few books I had on werewolves and they all say a mate can always be healed by the wolf. Derek has to kiss her and she should wake up." I informed my children.
"Oh so it's like a Disney fairytale? He just has to kiss sleeping beauty and all will be good in the world?" Tori asked.
"From what I understand. We just have to keep him from killing us before we explain." I said.
"I nominate Simon to break the new!" Tori yelled.
The two started to fight over who would get to tell Derek about the situation. I couldn't help but laugh at their childishness.
Derek's PROV
I directed the driver to my driveway. He pulled up to my home, and I gladly tipped him. I grabbed my things from the trunk and pushed open the front door. It was quiet- an odd and rare occurrence. The last time it was this quiet was the day Chloe first saw me as a wolf. I went to go see her after my first day at school, but I got attacked by a wild dog. Chloe found me and healed my wounds. A smile pulled at my face from the memories. We sure have grown a lot closer sense then. She was my best friend, my crush, and now she is my mate. I can't wait to wrap her in my arms and apologies for leaving. I know she will give me hell, but she is so worth it.
I climbed up the stairs. I could hear Kit, Simon, and Tori all breathing in the office, but I could also hear the shallow breath of a fourth person. I stopped in my room to drop off my suitcase before finding the rest of my family. I was hit with the strong smell of Chloe. I was surprised to find Chloe's sleeping form laid across my bed. I smiled and closed the door softly. I walked into the office to find Kit, Simon, and Tori all reading from spell books.
"Hey guys what's up?"
"Derek!?"
