The party

...----------------...

I quickly get home and change for the party. I'll definitely be at the party.

I changed into my black skirt, a cropped black shirt and some heels.

I get into my car and drive off to the address Lydia sent me. Once I get there I don't see Allison but I see Lydia. She's in a corner having a make-out session with Jackson. I roll my eyes and look around and I can sense some eyes on me. I search the room as I see someone in the back of the crowd lurking. Stiles is standing there; he definitely is not dressed for a party. I walk straight up to him.

He noticed that I'm walking towards him as he fixes his posture. "Stilinski fancy seeing you here" I say looking at him "I was just about saying that about you," he says "oh really" I say "not really actually" he says. I roll my eyes "I notice that his eyes are on me like not looking at my eyes or face. This guy is seriously checking me out right now. "Like what you see Stilinski" his eyes snapped up at my eyes "My name is stiles" he says and doesn't reply to anything else I said.

"Is your little wolf coming?" I say. "Oh I'm definitely sure he is," he says

"Why are you so sure"

"Cause I can see him walking in with Allison '' He says nodding behind me.

"What" I say as I turn around seeing that they are dancing together now. I quickly take Stiles hand, he doesn't stop me "What are you doing"

"Let's dance" I say as I walk in the crowd close to Allison and Scott but I keep my distance. I pull stiles In front of me. The song switches into a slow dance. I pull stiles closer and I put my hands on his neck. He looks at me nervously and holds me very high up on my back. It feels weird so I take his hands and take them down to my waist. "There seems to be nothing wrong yet" I say looking over at them. He gulps. While we dance we end up turning around and now stiles is the one seeing them. "Hey why'd you do that" I say looking at him.

He doesn't say anything and pulls me even closer out of nowhere. His hands were around my waist. I shiver as one of his hands slides up and somehow ends up under my shirt, his fingers cold on my skin. He leans down to my ear. "Someone is watching Scott"

"We are the one watching him, you dumbass"

"No, other than us this guy… Derek Hale is watching him" when I hear Derek's name I stop dancing. "Derek is here, wait why"

"Why do you sound like you know him"

"Cause I freaking do" I snapped looking at him.

"Of course you do"

"What's that supposed to mean?" I snap back at him.

"The Hales died in a fire a few years ago and he is the only one who survived it"

I can feel the tension in my throat building up. I swallow hard.

"Wha- what about his sister" I ask.

"She died in the fire" he says.

I turn and I see Derek, his eyes wide when he sees me. He's surprised. I stand there as I feel tears build up in my eyes. "Hey- hey are you okay" I can hear stiles say behind me. I turned around and said "I'm fine Stilinski". Once I turn around again he's gone. Derek is gone. "Damn it" I say. I can feel his eyes on me. I turn to face him "can you shut up" is say looking at him.

"What I didn't say anything"

"Well i can see that you are thinking loud"

He rolls his eyes. Scott is gone and Allison is standing in the crowd. "Stilinski you idiot we lost him"

" Wait, how is it my fault?" I roll my eyes and don't respond.

"You look for Scott and I'll take care of Allison"

"Whatever" he says.

He walks away as I walk to look back at where Allison was standing. She's gone. I look for her and I see her and another guy. I walk towards her.

"Alli hey" I say. She moved away and there was Derek.

"He was going to take me home. Is it okay if I go with you guys, my car broke down?" I lied. She looks at Derek and he nods. We got in his car, both of us quiet. I'm sitting in the front seat while she's sitting in the back. He drives her to her home first as I hoped.

"Are you new to town?" he asks as if he doesn't know the answer.

"I think you know the answer but if I have to remind you, Valencia remember?"

He gulps, he remembers me. "I'm sorry that doesn't ring a bell"

"Your childhood friend remember, me and Cora-"

"No, she died in the fire they both did"

I sit there in silence, he thinks I died in a fire.

"What are you talking about? What fire?"

" When I was younger there was a fire that occurred and killed The Back family and no one survived"

"Well I'm alive"

"There is no way you're her"

"How do I prove to you it's me"

"Remember me and Cora used to dress up alike cause we thought we looked like twins"

He blinks a few times. His eyes are still on the road. Then I remember one thing that he can't forget.

"Remember when you found a gun in your parents' house and I was with you. You shot me in my arm. I still have the scar."

His eyes look at my arm, and I know he knows it's exactly where he shot me.

"It is you, wait how are you alive?" He asks, confused.

"I never was in a fire, I moved to London. I'm so sorry about Cora" I said sadly.

He's cold, he tenses when I mention her name. "I'm sorry too, did you move here with your parents?" He asks.

"They died last year. Car accident"

"Oh," he says and doesn't say anything. I become quiet as I see my house. "Stop, I live here" he stops "come on in" I ask before I leave the car. "It's late, I should head home"

"I just want to ask you some questions about werewolves" as soon as I mentioned werewolves he tenses but agrees to come in. Once we get in.

“let's go to the library, You still know where it is right?” I ask. He nods and walks his way there. I go to my room and change and then go to my kitchen to get some drinks.

“Derek! coffee or tea?” I yell. I'm surprised he can hear me.

“ Coffee” He says loudly.

Coffee it is. I make coffee for both of us and walk my way to the library. He is sitting down on the couch, he smiles when he sees me.

“Here you go” I say smiling

“Thank you”

I smile. “So why were you watching Scott Mcall?”

“ He's been bitten”

“Bitten like by a wolf”

“An alpha”

“Wait did you bite him”

“No I'm not sure what you mean I-”

“Derek I know you are a werewolf” I cut him off.

“How,” he asks curiously.

“ I just do” I'm not ready to tell him about the book about creatures.

"Well since you know, Scott was bitten by an alpha and it wasn't me"

"Then who?" I ask to hope for an answer. "That's what i'm trying to find out"

I stay silent for a moment. He brings up some old memories, and we end up talking about them all night. We were laughing, smiling talking about us when we were younger. I tell him I'll be back. I'm just going to go and put our cups in the dishwasher. Once I got back he had fallen asleep on my couch. I smile. I lean over the door frame smiling. It must have been so lonely, he had all these years thought i died... He has nobody. Except for me now.

He's the closest I have to family right now. He's so adorable. I can't help it but I get my phone out and take a photo. He would kill me if he saw the photo.

I get over and put a blanket over him. As I flip the light switch. I quietly walked out as I reached my room. I go to sleep too.
