Chapter 53
You were waiting.. you could hear the machine as it was pulling you up. Once it stopped the doors opening you see Cira and Derek
"What are you-"
You walked out to see him. Derek looked up at you...
"Cora think you should leave-"
"No-"
Derek looked at her. She sighed and walked pass you. You crossed your arms.
"Aren't you supposed to be at school?-"
Derek got closer to you. You lowered your head and covered your face,
"Hey-"
Derek held your arm and he felt you shaking, he placed his finger under your chin and lifted your head up, only to see your tears. Something inside Derek broke, he brought you in for a hug
"I-I"
"I'm sorry..." whispered Derek
You held on to him
"I was- was so lost I- I couldn't forgive myself-"
Derek pulled away
"It wasn't your fault, not yours or Scott's alright?"
You just looked up at him,
"Ennis was going to kill me- you should've let him-"
"STOP!"
Derek held you
"I'm not letting anyone hurt you... or anyone else"
Derek just looked at you
"I-"
You noticed a scent that was new and familiar, you just couldn't place your finger on it.
"I'm here okay."
"I hate you..."
You looked up at Derek,
"No you don't... you love me."
Derek kissed you, you kissed, he soon lifted you up and brought yo to his bed.
*timeskip*
You were at your locker as Stiles and Scott told you everything
"Really ? Another one? Who do you think is next ?"
"We're not sure. It's like he needs Healers."
"We need to find this Druid. Making me see my mom- making me believe I killed you guys-"
Scott placed his hand on your shoulder
"Hey it's alright."
You smiled at him.
"Thanks Scott."
"Yeah let's go... your helping out since Mr. Harris is still missing."
"Yeah I know."
You three walked to class and you stood near the desk, that's when Ms. Blake walks in
"Alright good morning ! I'm your sub hand y/n will be helping me."
She placed a hand on your shoulder, that's when you recognize the scent from Derek's loft.
"As you all know, Mr. Harris is still missing--I mean sick. Anyway, I'm filling in while we all hope and pray for a more qualified substitute to take my place. Okay, so let's get started, shall we? You can sit next to Scott or stiles."
"Okay."
You sat next to them
" Hey, my dad said that the ER attending wasn't strangled but did die from asphyxiation-- they just don't know how."
"Do you think the on-call doctor could still be alive?"
" I don't know... But Scott, there's got to be at least twenty other doctors in that hospital at least, you know? Any one of them could be next."
"Yeah or one's specifically close to us."
The two boys looked at you, that's when Scott got a phone call
"Hey Doc. Sorry, I'm in class right now-- can I call you back later?"
"Unfortunately, no... I honestly thought I might never have to burden you like this, but I'm afraid, at the moment, you're my only hope.I'm going to be taken. I need you to find me."
You see Scott get worried
"Doc. Doc, doc, doc-- what's happening?"
Scott stood up and he left.
"Wait what happened-"
"Deaton was taken, call your dad Stiles."
Stiles nodded.
*timeskip*
You and Stiles made it to the clinic to be with Scott. You rubbed his back
"We have to tell him."
"You mean, like, tell him? Or, tell him something else that isn't telling him what I think you want to tell him?"
" You know what I mean."
"You remember how your mom reacted? She didn't look you in the eye for, like, a week!"
"And she got over it! And- and it actually made us closer."
"I don't know, dude...I mean, look at him. Come on, he's completely overwhelmed as it is!"
"I think it's best for your dad to know Stiles- I mean- he's the only one who doesn't know. He's law enforcement! He should know at least."
"She's right He's overwhelmed because he has no clue what's happening. He's got people dying in his town-- the town that he's supposed to protect-- and it's not his fault that he doesn't know what's happening. He's gonna find out sooner or later."
"Yeah, but is now really the right time?"
"What if not telling him now gets someone else killed?"
"What if telling him gets him killed, huh?"
"Stiles i love your dad too, I wouldn't want anything to happen to him. But him not knowing could kill him as well."
"I mean, okay. Look, I get that Deaton's been like a father to you-- I get that, okay? But this is my-guys, this is my actual father. I can't... I can't lose both of my parents, all right? Not both of them."
You sighed along with Scott
"You're right." Said Scott
"No, I'm not. I'm not right.I'll tell him."
"I'll help you. So will y/n"
"Really? Cant it be just you Scott that sounds selfish I know but your father has a good image of me! Imagine he just finds out I'm a monster ? He wouldn't-"
"Your not a monster..."
"It'll ruin my reputation with him." You sighed
You see Ms. Morelle talking to Sheriff.
"Please, whatever you need. However you can help find my brother."
"Will you excuse us for a moment?"
She then walked to you three
"Okay, listen closely, both of you-- no sheriff, deputy, or detective is going to be able to find him."
" You don't have to ask us for help."
"Actually, I'm trying to help you...Because if you're going to find my brother, then you need to use the one person who might actually have an ability to seek out the supernatural."
"...Lydia."
*timeskip*
You were in the music room with Scott when you see Deucalion
"Do you know what a metronome is, Scott? Y/n?It's a tool to help you maintain a steady rhythm once you've set the tempo. Something tells me the tempo of your life has sped up considerably in the last few hours. If you'd like, I could help slow it down to a more manageable pace."
You crossed your arms Looking at him as Scott was more open minded
"How?"
"By helping you find Deaton."
"Both of Your heart's pounding, but it's not fear. It's anger-"
"Scott's got a different anger within. I'm still pissed at you." You growled
"Well we can talk about that another time . But I bet I know what you're thinking-- "Does he have something to do with Deaton's disappearance? Tell you what... If you can take the cane away from me, I'll tell you exactly where he is. Now, what do you think?"
Scott growled at him and then lunged the two started to fight, you stumbled back as Deucalion taken Scott down, you hissed infront of Scott as you were protecting him. Deucalion hummed
" Impressive, but you know I'm not the one slashing up innocent people, praying to ancient gods, or gathering herbs, or whatever the hell Druids are supposed to do. I am part of a pack that wants Derek dead, though.Kali is coming for him, so there's a difficult choice you're about to face, because someone is going to die tonight, and whether that's Derek or Deaton... that's up to you."
" Just tell me where he is."
" I'll give you a very important clue-- let the current guide you."
With that Deucalion left, you helped Scott up. Your phone dinged
"It's from Isaac... he needs my help."
"It's alright go ahead, I'll tell Stiles."
"Alright... text me if anything happens okay?"
Scott looked at you,
"I will.."
You walked away
