These past few days have been quite hectic, I haven't seen too much of Derek as he's taking care of Cora and I'm busy with the coffee store. I'm actually going to Derek's later on today as im not working today.
I had just finished making Stiles and dad's breakfast when they came downstairs. They thanked me and then before long left for school and work.
I went back upstairs to have a shower and get ready. After putting on a white play suit with pink flowers on I dried and curled my hair then did my makeup.
I headed downstairs and cleaned and started doing laundry, casually.
There was a knock at the door, which really confused me. I headed over to the front door and opened it to see Issac. "Aren't you supposed to be at school?" I ask whilst inviting him in.
"Probably. I need to get a few things ready for the trip tomorrow and I just don't feel like being there and I have no where else to go." Issac says and I furrow my eyebrows whilst handing him a glass of water.
"Im sure Derek is thrilled you aren't in school." I say and he shrugs. "Derek kicked me out." He says and I choke on my drink. "He did what?!" I shout annoyed.
"Yeah. Said there wasn't enough room. He even through a glass at my head." Issac says and my eyes widen and I jump up. "Let's go." I say grabbing my keys and purse before getting in my car.
"You don't have to do this. He had his reasons." Issac says and I shake my head no. "Listen, you don't have to come in but that is unacceptable. Where are you staying?" I ask Issac. "At Scott's." He says and I nod.
"Stay here, we'll go for coffee and what not after." I say to Issac and he nods before I storm up to Derek's loft.
I don't knock I just fling open the door.
"You are really sick in the head." I shout at Derek and he just looks at me taken back. "Good afternoon to you too." He says and I roll my eyes.
"No! You are really sick. Issac is apart of your pack, you can't just kick him out!" I exclaim at Derek who just sighs and sits on a chair. "He's not, not apart of the pack, he just can't live here." Derek says and I roll my eyes.
"We're his family Derek. We're all he has. Do you know how pissed off I was when I heard what you did. How pissed off I was especially when I heard you threw something at him. That was so cruel! He did nothing to deserve that and he never will." I say and Derek sighs.
"This isn't one big happy family Nia, there are big and dangerous things going on." He says and I scoff. "Don't you think we know that. He risked his life TWICE so that he could help to find Erica, Boyd and Cora. Don't you understand that. He's a boy Derek, he's 17! He's been through so much and never in my life did I expect you to attempt to hit him." I say angrily I still couldn't believe what Derek had done.
"It was the only way to get him to leave." Derek says and I roll my eyes. "Derek, this loft is big enough for three people to live in. Im sure there was space for both Cora and Issac." I say and Derek just sighs.
"You don't understand and you probably never will, so please just go if you're gonna continue to shout at me and not try to understand what you're saying." Derek says and I just laugh.
"I know what you're saying Derek, I do. But none of the excuses you're using are good enough. All he wants is to feel apart of this family and he wants to help, so let him. Then throwing a glass at him, was too far. Not after everything he's been through. When he told me you threw something at him, I was so shocked because I know you. I know you would never want to hurt him, but the look on his face said it all." I say and Derek just sighs and runs a hand over his face.
"I'm still, so shocked at this." I say sighing and Derek nods. "Is everything alright" Cora asks walking downstairs in gym wear. "Yeah. I was just leaving." I say glaring at Derek.
"You look amazing and healthy by the way. Im glad to see you're okay." I say to Cora who smiles at me. "Thank you." She says and I smile. "Bye." I say to Cora and glare at Derek, harshly one more time before heading back to my car.
But before I get out the door I spin on my heels to talk to Derek who was just watching me. "He was the only one Derek. The only one who stayed to be apart of your pack. I love Erica and I love Boyd but they were willing to leave you, Issac wasn't. His loyalty lies with you, where does your loyalty lie?" I ask before leaving.
When I get in the car Issac smiles at me thankfully, I don't know if he heard that. He probably did.
"Thank you, for that." Issac says as I drive away. "That's okay. We're family Issac, I would never let someone treat you like that." I say and he smiles thankfully at me as he takes a breath of relief.
I got to the coffee shop and head inside with Issac by my side. "Stephanie." I say enthusiastically as I step inside. "Nia, what are you doing here?" She asks and I smile as I engulfed the scent off caffeine. "Just came for some coffee but seeing as you're fairly busy I'll help you quiet it down and then make my own coffee." I say and she thanks me.
"Issac, go take a seat, I'll bring over some coffee and whatever sweet treats we're selling today." I say to him whilst tying up my own apron.
I take about three people's orders before taking Issac over some coffee, brownies and cookies.
"I'm taking you back to school after your lunch period is over." I say and he groans. "You have to go, I dread to think what your attendance is already." I say and he sighs but gives in.
We sat just eating for a while whilst I listen to everything Issac has to say about his dad, Derek, Boyd, Erica, school, everything.
But as I drop Issac back to school after many brownies later, plus the one's I sent with him for the rest of the day I felt sad. I smiled at him as he opened the car door.
"Issac." I say stopping him from shutting the car door. "It does get better, I promise you that. If you need anything, ever you can call or text me. Or you can come and find me, if im not at my house im probably at work but I don't mind you coming in." I say and he smiles at me then thanks me.
"Also, you should come over later for dinner. Invite Scott as well if you want." I say to Issac and he smiles. "That would fun, thank you." He says and I smile.
When I got home, I chilled all day really just watching friends.
When Stiles got home he sat down on the sofa beside me. "What?" I ask because he was being unusually quiet.
"Um... I need to ask you something but I don't want it to be weird." He says and I scoff. "Go on then." I say furrowing my eyebrows and turning to him. "Don't look at me." He freaks out and I roll my eyes and turn to the tv.
"Are you... Are you..." He then takes a deep breath. "Are you a virgin?" He whispers and I laugh.
"Well..." He says gesturing for me to continue. "Obviously not. No." I say before focusing back on the tv. "Yeah I thought so." He says and I furrow my eyebrows and turn to him.
"I'm 23 Stiles, not a virgin." I say and he nods. "Well that's not were I was going. It was just with the whole Derek thing..." he says and I look at him confused.
"It waa kinda obvious plus im pretty sure I saw a hickey once and before I could question you about it, Derek come downstairs." Stiles says and I groan. "Hey atleast you won't get sacrificed." He says and I look at him confused.
"I think someone is sacrificing virgin's so when I die, please cry." Stiles says and I couldn't stop laughing then. "How old are you?" I ask Stiles, not really remembering from the top of my head. For the longest time he's still been 10 in my mind.
"17." Stiles says and I laugh. "Oh yeah." I say remembering him and Issac are in the same year. "Wait, you're still a virgin?" I ask him and he nods and then I couldn't hold my laughter in, no matter how hard I tried.
"Wait, when did you lose your virginity." Stiles says and I cringe. "We aren't talking about this, it's weird." I say standing up and heading into the kitchen.
"Just give me the age and who." Stiles says and I groan. "15 and you can guess who." I say and start making dinner.
"Logan?" Stiles asks coming into the kitchen. "Yep." I say. "He's a dick." Stiles says and I look at him with shock. "He wasn't at the time, you know that." I say shivering at the thought of Logan. I hadn't thought about him in ages, he was my first boyfriend and we were together for years, until he cheated on me, with my best friend. It's funny actually, because Derek was the one to tell me.
I walked to chemistry with my best friend Grace. Unfortunately we weren't in the same class but she always offered to walk me to class.
I hadn't seen Logan all morning because he had basketball practice.
"See ya." I say to Grace as I head into my class. I found my seat and got my things ready for this lesson.
"Nia." A voice calls and I turn to see Brooke smiling at me. "Party at my place friday, after the game. You in?" She asks and I smile. "Probably, I'll see if Logan is coming." I say to her and she nods.
Since my mom died, I haven't done much socialising. I've gone to parties as it's a really good way to get your mind off of things.
A chair squeals against the floor and I turn to see Derek Hale getting into his seat beside me.
"Hi." I say smiling politely and he just rolls his eyes at me. "Rude." I mutter and start doodling on my notebook.
"You have bigger things to worry about right now, talking to me isn't one of them." He bites and I scoff. "You know nothing about my life." I say and he turns to me and stares into my eyes.
"Wanna bet?" He says and I nod. "You continue to date Logan and be friends with Grace when they're constantly going behind your back and doing it any where and everywhere. Why are you still friends with them?" Derek says and my face drops. "What?" I ask as my eyes start to tear up.
"You didn't know?" He asks and I shake my head. I gather my stuff quickly and rush out of class.
I walk down the corridor with my head down, just wanting to get out.
"Babe? What's wrong?" I hear Logan call as he stands infront of me. "Perfect." I mutter and wipe a tear quickly before meeting his eyes. "Is it about your mom?" He asks and I scoff and roll my eyes. It took seconds for my fist to connect with his jaw.
I wouldn't recommend punching someone in the jaw, it hurts like a bitch. "What the fuck is wrong with you?" Logan asks holding his jaw. "Me? What's wrong with me? More like what's wrong with you? You cheated. With Grace." I say and his eyes widen.
"Nia, I'm so sorry. I swear it was only once and it meant nothing to me." He says holding my arms but I just wanted to get away from him, which he wasn't having. "You're hurting me. Let go." I say trying to pull away from him.
"Hey!" Someone says and we both turn to see Derek making his way towards us. "This is none of your business Hale, leave." Logan says and I whimper as the pressure on my arm is tighter and harder.
"Let her go man." Derek says coming to my side. "Did you tell?" Logan asks Derek. "Of course I did." Derek says and before Logan goes to hit him, Derek punches him in the nose. Derek pulls me away from Logan and we rush out of school.
"That was amazing." I say to Derek whilst forgetting all about the pain in my hand and on my arms as Derek kept his hand on my back.
"Why are you getting out extra plates?" Stiles asks. "I invited Issac and Scott round for dinner." I say and before I could serve food up, I had a text from Issac.
Issac L- Sorry something came up, don't think we're gonna be able to make it. Can we reschedule to after I come back from the meet?
Me- Sure thing. Be safe.
I then just serve up for dad, Stiles and I. But when Dad wasn't home I decided to drop him some food and then drop some food to the McCall house as I had done extras tonight anyway.
When I got home I got ready for bed and then climbed into bed and watched friends with some wine till I fell to sleep.
