Promise

As me and stiles drove off from school I stared out the window watching all the trees and houses go by. I started to remember when Derek use to drive me home and he'd scold me for   not listening to him.


"You know you're not the only I have to protect right? There are others too, Lydia, Scott, Malia and Stiles and the rest of beacon hills." Derek said as he looked to me and back at the road.


"yeah I know" I said looking out the window of the moving car.


"Then why do you continue to disobey me Y/N !?" Derek exclaimed


That was the first time he had ever yelled at me and I felt my throat burn and felt a heavy knot lodged in my vocal chords. I could feel a small tear beginning to form in my eye. But there was no point because I was sure he could sense my heart and emotion.


"I'm just trying to help!" I shouted trying to make my tears unnoticeable


"Well we don't need your kind of help!" Derek added


That was it, I've had enough of him, I couldn't take it any longer.


"Stop the car" I demanded


"what?" he looked at me puzzled


"I said stop the car" I shouted again wiping a tear off my face"


"we aren't even close to your house" he said


"I don't care I'll walk I don't need you!" I said as I opened the door of his camero


I got out the car and started walking on the side walk and I could hear him call my name. he put down the window and drove next to me and tried to get me to come back in the car.


"Y/N get in the car now, I'm serious" he said as he looked at me and back of the road.


I kept walking and started picking up pace and I noticed my legs starting to take off. I started running and I could feel the tears rolling to the sides of my cheeks of how fast I was going. I could hear footsteps behind me getting closer and closer I tried to get away. I felt two big arms grab me and I could do was cry and shout and hit his chest.


"Derek let me go" I said as I hit his chest with my hands


"Y/N listen to me I didn't mean it like that, I'm just trying to keep you safe"


"And all I want is for you to believe in me I'm tired of being the girl that is weak because she is not a werewolf or a banchi I want to part of the pack like everyone else! I just want you to accept me!" I shouted and finally broke free. "I like you Derek, a lot and I ever wanted was for you to believe in me and be appreciate me but all I ever do to you is get in the way or mess things up!"


Derek stared at me as I wiped more tears away. He said nothing. What felt like hours were probably seconds until I broke the silence?


"I'll be sure to not get in your way because you'll never see me again." I said as I started walking on my way.


He didn't even try to stop me. I just kept walking. My heart was broken and I was not only tired from the walk to my house I was just emotionally tired. I walked in my house and ignored everyone for about a week. Lydia and Malia had stopped by a couple times and I never answered them. stiles blew up my phone and I just never bothered to pick up, and Scott, Scott called my mom to see how I was doing every day. I knew that in their pack I belonged because they cared dearly for me and Derek only cared about himself.


"Hey Y/N you okay?" stiles said as I snapped back into reality


"Yeah why?" I turned and giving him a fake grin.


"well you haven't said anything the whole way home and you usually have a lot to say" stiles said


"oh yeah I was just thinking about some homework I have to do" I said


"okay well you know you can tell me anything and everything right?" stiles said messing up my hair


"yeah I know" I said smiling.


Before I knew it we were at my house and I jumped out of the jeep and waved to Stiles.


"Say Hi to your mom for me" he said leaning from the driver's side.


"I will! Drive safe!" I said walking towards my front door.


I was greeted by my dog Steel. A white German shepherd with a blue and yellow eye.


"Mom Are you home?" I asked dropping my backpack on the floor.


No answer so I assume she's back at the hospital. My mom and scotts mom were best friends, and met stiles's mom while caring for her as she went through treatments at the hospital.


"Bing" my phone went off


I unlocked my phone to see a text from an unknown number.


"Hey " -unknown number


"Who's this" I replied


"It's Theo the guy you tackled like super hard lol"


"oh hey what's up?"


I was surprised he texted me that quick I didn't think he'd even text me to be honest.


"Nothing just thought I'd text you, it's okay that I text you right?"


"Yeah of course "


"hey did you get all the notes in bio class?" he replied


"uhhh yeah I think why?"


"is it okay if I come over to copy them"


"yeah sure my mom isn't here at the moment but she wouldn't mind"


"okay cool send me your address."


After I sent him my address I quickly jumped in the shower and used lots of body wash. Hes not a werewolf but he is human so he can still smell me. After taking a shower I texted the Lydia and Malia and told them Theo was coming over. Lydia replied with a "be careful Y/N we don't know what he is yet" and Malia replied saying "I don't Trust him, call me if you want me to kill him" not the best answers but hey they are my best friends.


A couple minutes later a heard a knock at the door and steel barking like crazy. Steel was a good guard dog, he always made sure his presence was known to unknown visitors. I made my way towards steel assuring him that it was alright. As I opened the door there he was in a black long sleeve and gray sweat pants and black hat. He had such a beautiful smile on him that made the whole room light up.


"Hey" he said smiling


"Hi" I said smiling back at him


"please come in" I added.


We walked to the kitchen table and he set his backpack beside him. I sat across from him holding my notebook. There was silence at first as we stared at each other. He looked into my browns eyes and I looked in his hazel eyes. They were like two big pools and I just wanted to swim in them forever. In that moment I felt calm and happy. Forgetting my problems and worries and just focusing on him.


Steel put his paws on the table barking for us to throw his ball and we both looked at him and laughed.


"Hes such a beautiful dog" he commented


"Thanks hes a rescue" I added


"Do you like all animals?" Theo asked


"Yeah I love them, I hope to study animal biology one day and be able to rescue more dogs"


"Wow" Theo said looking impressed


"what?" I asked


"Well I mean for starters you like super athletic and now I see your really down to earth plus your beautiful. My kind of girl" he said giving me those seductive eyes.


"Thanks not too bad yourself" I said as I giggled and bit my lower lip.


He then proceeded into talking about himself and he talked about how he wants to be a personal trainer and help people fighting with diabetes get back into shape. He mentioned that people need more motivation to be healthy because only then will life be easier for them in the long run. he also said that working out also helped him get lost and it was his stress reliever. I know what he meant. After the week that Derek and I finalized our friendship. I joined kickboxing and worked my ass off to prove to myself that I wasn't just a week human. I was strong, strong in my own way. I became mentally strong as well knowing that after that day I no longer looked for validation from anyone I am who I am and if no one is happy with me it wasn't important because the most important thing is if I'm happy with who I am and was. We talked and talked for hours and I felt like he understood me. Sure the pack understood me too but they all played a role in the pack, I felt like everyone was supernatural and could help with they're abilities but even then Stiles wasn't supernatural but he was the brains in the group.


"You know Y/N you're really easy to talk to, I really appreciate you listening to me I've only made a couple of friends but it seems to me like you're the only real one. I feel like I can trust you." Theo said


"You know Theo I feel the same way, I feel like I can trust you too. I said putting my hair behind my ear.


We were interrupted by a knock at the door and shouting.


"Y/N its stiles open the door or Scott will break it down!" Stiles said


I could hear Scott talking to him saying "Stiles we don't need to break it down there's a spare under the rug."


"Never mind we have a key!" he said as they opened the door.


I put my hands on my face cursing them for ruining the moment.


"Hey Y/N what's up" stiles said then looked at Theo saying "Sup"


Scott walked in behind him "Hey guys"


"Hey Scott" Theo replied


"What are you guys doing here" I asked as I opened my eyes wide signaling them to leave


"Oh we were just by the neighborhood thought we should check up on our favorite girl" he implied making sure Theo knew who he was messing with.


"okay well I'm fine thanks guys see you tomorrow" I said trying to shoo them away


"No its okay I was just leaving" Theo said as he got up from the table.


"Really" stiles and I said together


"I mean really we just got here" Stiles added


"Yeah I forgot we have 5am workout for lacrosse tomorrow" Theo said picking up his backpack making his way to the door.


"I'll walk you to your car" I said hoping stiles wouldn't follow.


We started walking towards his car.


"hey I'm so sorry for that they can be a little protective" I said but my hands in my sweater pocket


"Don't worry I would be too, but I think stiles might have a crush on you" he said smiling at me


"what no! he's like a brother to me he's my best friend!" I added pushing him


"Well if I were them id protect you too, even though your pretty good at it on your own." He said pushing me back.


"Well this is my car." he added


He got in and rolled down the window.


"Ill see you tomorrow okay" I said as I smiled


"you promise ?" he said smiling back at me


"I promise" I said giggling


From my house I hear stiles screaming "I promise too"


We both turned to see Stiles and Scott waving. Theo then proceeded to drive off as I watched him leave.


I entered the house and explained to the boys what happened and assured them that I was okay. And they finally left once again telling me to be careful because we still didn't know what he was.


That night I went t bed with steel and as I was beginning to doze off I got a message saying


"Promise?'" -Theo


"I promise " I replied shutting my eyes and dozing off into sleep
