|Chapter 11|
*Edited 05/12/22*
Me and Stiles are walking to our next class which is English while the boy walking next to me is expressing how mad he is at Scott for not saving me or his dad.
Which is understandable because he already lost his mother really soon and he doesn’t want to lose both his parents and one of his best friends.
“Well, still. We are both okay and nothing happened to your dad.” I say with a tight smile, hoping to get the message through, I am okay.
“You still got injured.” He says and I smile to myself before looking down at my feet.
He cares.
“It’s not that big of a deal.” I say and he somewhat nods and sighs.
We get inside the classroom and I take a seat beside Stiles. Not long after, Scott enters the room and sits behind Stiles while Stiles has a bitch expression on his face.
“Still not talking to me?” Scott asks and Stiles doesn’t respond. Again, I get why he is mad but he needs to stop being so bitter. It happened. We are both fine. Done.
“Dayton, are you okay?” He asks and turns to me as well as Stiles. I nod with a small smile.
“I feel really bad about it.” He says.
“It’s okay. It’s done.” I say and he nods before I turn back around to face the front of the class.
“Stiles. Please talk to me.” Still no response from Stiles. “Okay, what if I tell you that I’m trying to figure this whole thing out, and – That I went to Derek.” Scott continues.
Derek Hale has become kind of a werewolf teacher for Scott. Even though he is demanding that Scott stops seeing Allison which is a dick move but whatever.
“Well, if I was talking to you, I’d say you’re an idiot for trusting him. But obviously I’m not talking to you.” He says and I roll my eyes.
“Well – you basically are tal-” I start with a smile plastered on my face but I’m interrupted by Stiles shushing me.
Time passed and we all remained silent listening to the teacher.
The bell rang finally and I was about to meet with Allison and Lydia in the library to hang out.
“What did he say?” Stiles says finally giving up on the silent punishment. Kinda. I chuckled.
“Anyways guy. I’m going to see Lydia and Allison. See you later.” I say and start making my way to the lunchroom as Scott starts explaining everything to Stiles.
//
I walk inside the lunchroom easily find Allison and Lydia.
I make my way up to them and brightly smile at them.
“Hi.” I greet both girls.
“Oh hi Dayton.” Allison says as I sit beside Lydia. I think Lydia and I can patch our relationship or whatever this is. She even gave me her number and she let go of her snarky remarks.
“Anyways Allison. The what of the who?” Lydia asks and I open my chemistry book ready to revise.
“The beast of Gevaudan.” Allison says and I look up to her as the word ‘beast’ keeps me interested. “Listen. ‘A quadruped wolf – like monster, prowling the Auvergne and south Dordogne areas of France during the year 1764 to 1767. La Bete killed over a hundred people, becoming so infamous that the King Louie the 15th sent one of his best hunters to try and kill it.'” She finished.
“Boring.” Lydia decides to speak up. I roll my eyes.
“We can’t be talking about how Jackson is good in bed all day Lydia.” I say and Lydia gasps however Allison breaks in before we start roasting each other.
“Even the church eventually declared the monster a messenger if Satan.” She continues keeping her eyes on the lines.
“Still boring.” Lydia sigh.
“She means continue.” I nod as Lydia shakes her head.
“Cryptozoologists believe it may have been a subspecies of hoofed predator, possibly a mesonychid.” She continued.
Interesting …
“Slipping into a coma bored.” Lydia continued. Annoying if you ask me.
“While others believe it was a powerful sorcerer who could shape – shift into a man – eating monster.” Seems very werewolf-like.
“Any of this have anything to do with your family?” Lydia asks.
“This. ‘It is believed that la Bete was finally trapped and killed by a renow hunter who claimed his wife and four children were the first to fall prey to the creature.’ His name was Argent.” She says with a proud smile.
“Was it a wolf?” I ask, a bit scared of bringing it up in front of Allison and she nods.
But the details she said were very werewolf features…
“Your ancestors killed a big wolf. So what?” Lydia asks with a smug look on her face while twirling her curls.
“Not just a big wolf. Take a look at this picture.” She said turning the computer around to face the both of us. I looked intensely and it looked familiar however my mind couldn’t recognise it.
Lydia looked stuck looking at the picture. Did she recognise it? Did she see it on the movie store?
I’m not sure.
“Lydia?” I ask and she breaks from her intense staring. She looks back at Allison who is looking at her best friend worriedly.
“I see a big, bad wolf.” She said and smirked afterwards.
Okay then. Fair enough…
“Dayton, have you heard of Scott? Is he okay?” Allison asks me.
I nod. “Yeah, why do you ask.” I ask the brunette.
“I don’t know. He has been – weird and – distant lately.” She says and I nod.
Something about this smells Hale.
“He seems the same with me. I bet it’s just you just – overthinking.” I lied and chuckled nervously. I obviously don’t want my best friend to be caught and lose one of the best things that has actually happened to him recently.
I look behind Allison’s head to see Stiles and Scott. Scott hiding behind a history book which makes me roll my eyes
It’s obvious that Scott is trying to avoid Allison lately. Not only because of his secret or that his mentor will kill him if he doesn’t. It’s mostly because of fear that Allison will turn out to be a werewolf hunter like his family. He really has this hard.
“Anyways guys. I will see you guys tomorrow for the mall –” I say and get up from my chair looking at both girls and smiling before both of them waving a goodbye as I leave both girls and go seat next to Scott greeting both boys.
“I am doing social work today – so many people to catch up with.” I smile at the two while taking a seat. “The book is making it move obvious.” I point at Scott’s book before stealing a chip from Scott’s trey.
“Yeah besides, she’s reading anyways.” Stiles says before looking back at the table with the two girls. I wonder if he still liked Lydia.
“So did any of you come up with a plan yet?” Teen wolf asks from beside me.
“I didn’t sorry. Lydia and Allison were talking about werewolf stories from the Argents..” I say. I notice the silence and I turn to Scott and his eyes are widen looking at me.
“Oh no! It was years ago way back. Not now. Maybe they quit their job.” I say nodding and Stiles rolls his eyes.
“Well, I did.” Stiles speaks up breaking the awkward silence. We both turn to him.
“Does that mean you don’t hate me now?” Scott asks.
“No. But your crap has infiltrated my life. Our life.” He says turning to me as I smile at him. “So now, we have to do something about it.” He says and I nod.
“Yup. Plus Stiles is definitely a better yoda then Derek.” I say and Stiles’ eyes light up with excitement, just one look at his excitement makes me completely lose my cool, if I had any.
“You mentioned Star wars? Oh God I love you.” He says and his eyes widen after what he just said.
“Okay – you teach me.” He says and I smile.
“Yeah – I’ll be your yoda.” Stiles says taking another bite of his apple.
“Yeah, you be my yoda.” Scott says with a grin.
“Your yoda I will be.” Stiles says and I chuckle while Stiles has an adorable smile on his face. “I said it backwards.” He said and I nod.
“We get it.” Scott says as we are all standing up. “Dayton. Can you go get the equipment for me. Please? From the coaches office.” Stiles says trying to speak in a british accent. I chuckle.
“Yeah sure. See you guys at the field.” I say waving them off and making my way to the coaches office.
Being with the girls, Stiles and Scott made me stop thinking about my problems. That I could be leaving everything in the next two weeks.
I wish I didn’t have to. In here, I feel good. I feel like I can be myself where it is quite hard to find acceptance in other area. At least not as much acceptance as I got here.
Plus I had Stiles. He has been through the ups and downs with me and he never judged me. He was always there to listen to my annoying problems.
I think there is nothing I can do to change my father’s mind.
Sadly.
I am now in front of the coaches office and I see that the door is open. I peek inside and see that there is no one there So I better hurry up.
I get inside and close the door behind me.
I go to the closet and get one of the heart rate monitors from the track team. They won’t notice now would they?
I hear the door open and I close my eyes with fear before slowly turning around.
“Dayton?” I see Danny and I let out a sigh of relief.
“Danny.” I breathed. “You almost gave me a heart attack.” I say and he chuckles
“Sorry about that – wait – what are you doing here?” He asks with a suspicious look.
“Uh –” I let out trying to think of a good and believable reason but before I could finish the coach himself gets in.
“Woah – am I interrupting something?” He says and Danny rolls his eyes. “What are you both doing here?” He says, pointing at us both and making his way to his desk.
“Uh –” I start but I am again interrupted this time by Danny.
“It’s my fault.” Danny says and my eyes widen. What is he doing? “I want to help Dayton so that he can make the team so we came here to get some equipment.” He says and I smile at him.
He’s really sweet.
“Really? That’s sweet of you.” Coach says looking between Danny and I. “Now get out of here before I start shipping you two together.” He says as me and Danny hurry out of Coaches office. “Shipping? Now where is my phone…” I head him mumble before I am out of view.
I smile and turn to Danny.
“Thanks D.” I say and he smiles back.
“No problemo.” He says.
“No. I really owe you one.” I say.
“So – are you gonna tell me what you were really doing there?” He asks ans I chuckle.
“Sorry, can’t – maybe some day. I have to go.” I say and give him a quick tight hug before running to the field where Stiles and Scott must be already.
//
I am here with my best friends as Stiles is ordering Scott to put on his lacrosse suit.
“Isn’t this one of the heart monitors for the team?” Scott asks looking at the tiny machine that I robbed – brought from Coaches office.
“Yeah – I borrowed it.” I say letting out a sigh.
“Yeah more like stole it.” Scott says.
“Temporarily misappropriated. Plus its for the greater good for you.” I say and smile. “Only just thinking about you Scotty!”
“So, coach uses a heart rate with his phone while he jogs, and your gonna wear it for the rest of the day.” Stiles says.
“Isn’t that Coaches phone?” I ask and Stiles nods.
“I stole it.” He said and I shake my head.
So that’s why coach was wondering where he left his phone.
“All right,” Stiles starts getting up from the bleacher and going more to the center of the field with a stick on his hands. “Your heart rate goes up when you go wolf, right? When you play lacrosse. When you’re with Allison, whenever your angry. Maybe learning to control it is tied to learning to control your heart rate.” He says.
“Like the incredible hulk?” I ask.
“Yeah, kind of like the incredible hulk.” Stiles says with a grin on his face.
“No, I’m like the incredible hulk.” Scott says and I chuckle.
He kind of is still. He is just the small version.
“Would you shut up and put the strap on?” Stiles says giving a strap to a smiley Scott as he quickly puts it on.
“This isn’t exactly how I wanted to spend my free period.” Werewolf says.
“Really? What more exciting thing could you be doing?” I ask curiously.
“Oh you don’t want to know.” Scott says with a grin on his face.
I slowly catch on to what he meant.
“Ew.” I say and we both laugh.
“All right. Ready?” Stiles asks getting away from Scott with Coaches phone and a stick along with some balls to throw it at Scott.
“No.” Scott replies.
“That’s the spirit.” I say grinning and giving him thumbs up.
Stiles hands me coaches phone which has Scott’s heart rate in it.
“Remember. Don’t get angry.” Stiles says getting into his position and placing a ball in his net.
Then he starts throwing it at Scott. I look at the phone and see Scott’s heart rate increase as each ball hits him.
“I’m starting to think this is a very bad idea.” Scott says and I can’t disagree at this point.
Stiles continues throwing balls.
“Oh man, okay that one kind of hurt.” He says after a ball hit him in his private areas.
“Quiet remember, you’re supposed to be thinking about your heart rate. All right? About staying calm.” Stiles says before he is back at throwing balls at his best friend. It must be fun.
Scott mumbles somethings that I can’t really listen as I am keeping my attention on the phone.
Scott’s heart rate is going up like crazy.
“Aah son of a bitch!” Scott shouts and I let out a slight laugh. I’m going to hell.
“Hey Dayton. You know what? I think my aim is actually improving.” He says turning to me and winking making me blush.
“I wonder why.” I say with a chuckle.
“Hey Scott. Are you okay?” I ask making sure.
“Just perfect.” He grumbles sarcastically.
“Don’t get angry.” Stiles says as he keeps throwing balls.
Scott’s heart rate is really going up.
“I’m not getting angry.” The teen wolf says. Is that a sarcastic attempt?
Scott’s heart rate is getting dangerously high. “Uh – Stiles?” I say and Stiles turns to me as I show him the phone.
He turns back to look at our best friend.
“Stop. Can we just –” Scott says before he falls to his knees and unties himself.
Yeah now he is definitely acting like hulk.
Me and Stiles run to his rescue.
“Scott?” I ask.
He seems to have calmed down.
“What happened?” Scott asks sitting up.
“You started to change.” Stiles says.
“It was from anger. But it was more than that.” Scott says out of breath.” Was like, the angrier I got, the stronger I felt.”
“So it is anger then. Derek is right.” I say.
“I can’t be around Allison.” Scott says with sadness in his voice.
“Just because she makes you happy?” Stiles asks.
“Because she makes me weak.”
//
I decided to skip the rest of the classes and go to the police department to speak with my dad.
I know it is hard for him since he made good friends too. I’m just being a pain in the butt.
I know it will hurt but I know my dad just wants what is best for us.
As I come in I am greeted by some police officers.
“Hi Dayton. Keeping good grades at school?” Sheriff Stilinski asks with a smile as I return the smile.
“Always and your son is a big help.” I say and he smiles proudly.
I make my way to my dad’s office and knock on the door.
“Dayton.” My dad says and walks to me to give me a hug.
“Hey dad.” I whisper.
“What are you doing here. Don’t you have school.” He asks and I chuckle.
“I just came here to apologise. I was being a brat and I know that you need to do what is best for us even if we are sacrificing some really – good things here.” I say and he smiles proudly and we hug one more time.
I’m happy and all I have to do is spend the rest of my days in beacon heels with my friends.
//
“This is a terrible idea.” Stiles says.
Guess who got in another dangerously amazing adventure at the school? Me.
I hope we can survive this.
Stiles explained everything to me. Apparently Hale has Scott’s boss. Which I haven’t met yet.
“Yeah I know.” Scott says.
“We’re still gonna do it?” I ask.
“Can you think of something better?” Scott asks and I throw my hands up in surrender.
He’s been grumpy lately.
“Well, personally I am a fan of ignoring a problem until eventually it goes away.” Stiles says somewhat defending me as I smile at him and he winks at me. Again.
“He’s here.” Scott says getting closer to Derek’s car as Derek gets out of it and comes to meet us. “Wheres my boss.” Scott asks.
“He’s in the back.” Derek says looking between all three of us.
Derek opens the back seat and Scott’s boss is sitting uncomfortably in there.
“Oh, well he looks comfy.” Stiles says and I agree.
Scott starts to make his way inside the school as me and Stiles follow.
“Wait what are you doing?” Derek asks as we look back.
“You said I was linked with the Alpha. I’m gonna see if you’re right.” Scott says.
“Fine. But Dayton stays here.” Derek says and I look back shocked.
He knows my name.
I start making my way to him in defeat.
“What? That is not happening n-” stiles starts freaking out.
“I’m not gonna eat your boyfriend. Nothing is going to happen to him. It’s just safety.” Derek says rolling his eyes.
“What? He’s not my boyfr-” stiles says but doesn’t get to finish as he is pushed by Scott to the inside the school.
Awkward.
“So how are you?” I ask and Derek just lets out a sigh. “I’ll take that as – could be better – same.” I say, putting my freezing hands inside my pockets before looking down at the ground.
We stay in silence for some moments before we hear an horrible sound like a cat being chocked.
“You’ve got to be kidding me.” Derek says closing his eyes.
“Come on Scott you can do it.” I mumble.
After some moments we hear a loud howl.
“Yeah!” I mumble.
Both of them come back and Stiles is checking on me asking me if I was okay.
“I’m gonna kill all three of you.” Derek says as my eyes widen.
“Hey what did I do? I was here the whole time.” I say going beside Stiles.
“Sorry I didn’t know it was going to be that loud.” Scott says apologetically.
“Yeah, it was loud and it was AWESOME.” Stiles says and I chuckle.
“Shut up.” Derek says. Dick.
“Oh don’t be such a sour wolf.” Stiles says which makes me laugh. He most likely is a sour wolf.
“What did you do to him?” Scott asks and I look to the back seat to see that Scott’s boss was no longer there.
“What? I didn’t do anything.” Derek says before he is thrown in the air with claws in his chest and blood coming out of his mouth. The alpha.
“Oh my god.” I gasp. As we all look surprised.
Stiles grabs my hand and pushes me with him.
“Come on.” Stiles says.
What just happened?
