"WHAT DETERMINES THE overall shape of a protein?" Derek asked Lilith who was laying on the couch while he read her notes, waiting for Peter to help them. She had convinced him to help her study for her AP Bio test that was coming up on what they had learned in the first two days of class.
"The order or sequence of amino acids. Come on, Wolf-boy, give me something hard," she groand, carefully rolling on the her stomach before giving the boy a glare, almost as hard as the one he was giving her.
"You know what?" She hummed in response, her eyebrows raising. "Not all of us want to be super genius' that could already be in MIT by their sophomore year in high school."
"Well, not everyone can be," she joked with an eye roll, rolling back onto her back. "Now shut up and quiz me."
"You know, I'm starting not to like this idea. Sounds kind of dangerous," Isaac announced from his place, pacing in front of the giant wall of windows in Derek's industrial apartment. It was much nicer than his old, burnt and crusty home, but it could still use some decor. "You know what? I definitely don't like this idea, and I definitely don't like him."
"You'll be fine," Derek reassured him blandly, not thinking it was that big of a deal. "Monosaccharides create what when linked by dehydration synthesis?"
"Does it have to be him?" He pushed further, ignoring the other two.
"Polysaccharides. I said make this hard, Derek," Lilith complained again, the alpha rolling his eyes.
"He knows how to do it, I don't. It'd be more dangerous if I tried doing it myself," he reminded him, turning back to Lilith. "I've asked you every question I could come up with from your notes, I think you're fine."
"Well, what if I'm not and you're just not thinking of enough questions.? Find a quizlet online or something," she ordered him, the man rolling his eyes.
"Do you get this stressed over every test?"
"Yeah, pretty much," she answered honestly, not thinking of a test she didn't get stressed over. Oh, the joys of your grades mattering more than your mental health because you and your family don't have enough money to put you through college.
"That can't be hea-"
"Oh, my God!" Isaac cut them off, both looking up at him in shock. "For the love of all things, will you two please stop flirting over AP Bio work? I still don't like him and yet you claim we need his help."
"We do," Derek reminded him, obviously aggravated by his beta's anxious attitude. Or, maybe it was a mixture of his and Lilith's.
"Please, nobody likes him," Lilith joked lightly, the door to the apartment opening.
"Boys, and the biggest pain in my ass. F.Y.I., yes, coming back from the dead has left my abilities somewhat impaired, but the hearing still works. So, I hope you're comfortable saying whatever it is that you're feeling straight to my face," Peter greeted them, strutting straight through the main room towards the giant wall of windows.
