Repeating Steps (A Liam Dunbar fanfiction)

03

Stiles pick me up 1 hour after he called me, just like he had said.

"Hey mini Argent" Stiles said from the conductors sit.

"Don't call me that, you know I hate it and remember you wake me up" I said getting on the car.

"Sorry mini Argent"

I rolled my eyes and put my gun on my waist. I saw how Stiles's eyes opened with fear, I chuckled. Stiles started the Jeep and now we were moving in direction to the animal clinic.

"Hi Bri" Lydia said giving me a hug.

"Lydia!" I threw myself to hug her. She smiled. "Lydia next time you're going to let me go with you, because I hate being in the house alone and you know it"

"I'll try, you know how Scott is" She said in a low voice so he couldn't hear us, but of course I knew he could.

"You know I can hear you, right?" Scott asked.

"Of course we know" I said.

I turned around to see a boy on the back of the Jeep.

"Who the hell is that?" I asked confused.

"Oh! That's Derek" Stiles answered.

"Of course that's Derek" "Can you explain me, why he looks like 15 years younger?"

"Scott?" Stiles asked as if telling Scott to tell me.

"Breaden and I found him in some kind of stone pool with some magic water that made him younger"

"Ok, so we're going to Deaton to make him go back to normal"

"Exactly"

We arrived so fast to the animal clinic, we all got out of the Jeep and made our way inside of the clinic, Scott was carrying Derek. We moved everything that was on the table away to make space for Scott to put young Derek.

He looked pale and he was wet. Deaton looked him for a moment before he said "Wow"

"Wow? Wow as in," I've seen this before and I know exactly what to do," kind of wow?" Stiles asked nervous. "Couse that's the kind of wow we were hoping for"

"I think you might be overestimating my abilities" Deaton said offended.

I saw how Lydia put her hand on young Derek. "He's cold" "Really cold" she said. The atmosphere was tense, something didn't feel right. Deaton put his hand on Derek as well. Scott looked at him with worry in his eyes.

"Do you think this is permanent?" Scott said.

"I'm not sure a medical diagnosis is even adequate" Deaton answered while he looked at Derek with some kind of light. "This is well beyond my experience"

"So what do we do with him?" Stiles asked Deaton.

"Until he wakes up? Probably not much. It might be best to leave him with me. He'll be safe here"

"You mean safe from Kate?"

"If she's alive and she is what you say she is, she won't be able to walk past that gate"

"Why would she want do this to him?" Lydia spoke for the second time.

"Knowing Kate, it's probably for a reason that won't be any good for anyone but her"

"And bad for everyone else" Stiles said compleating Deaton's sentence. He nodded in agreement.

"You guys should probably go home. He doesn't look to be in danger. So maybe the rest of you should get some sleep?" "It is a school night. And you all need to start taking care of your own lives again"
