Can You Forgive Me?

Chapter 12 Protective

Scott and Kira were laying down in Kira's bed for once after they had told her parents about her engagement, they were thrilled. In most other circumstances they would have thought that it was too early to be tied down, but this was different for many reasons with one being she was pregnant with his child. She was curled up in his lap with her head on his chest as they usually ended up before they fell asleep. Scott had his nose buried in her black silky hair as he stroked her arm. She almost moaned feeling the tingle travel up and down her arm and Scott could tell she liked it because she smiled and she began to push more into him. He couldn't help but smile at the beautiful girl in front of him, he always dreamed that he would have a future with a someone and even a family and although he didn't think it would come this early, it didn't matter to him because he loved Kira and she loved him and they were already starting a family and although it was an accident it didn't really seem to matter to him because it made them both as happy as could be. When she peered up at him she smiled a tiny bit before speaking out.

"What will everyone say when they find out? I don't mean our friends because they all reacted really well to the news, but everyone else aren't quite like our friends are they?" Scott smiled and kissed the girl on the forehead, lingering there for a couple of seconds before reassuring her.

"They are certainly different to everybody else, but it won't matter what everyone else thinks because we'll be happy and most importantly we'll be together and that is more important than what everyone at school thinks."

"How do you always know what to say?" He chuckled a little before moving her hand to stroke her cheek. She closed her eyes, no longer worried about what people would say when they found out that she was having a child and the fact that she was now able to sleep meant Scott could sleep as well and slowly he drifted off to sleep.

The next day Scott and Kira were walking into the school when they were pulled to the side by all their friends. Kira was partly glad because she had forgotten to take off the ring and she didn't want anyone apart from their group to know which Scott understood perfectly. As she slid off the ring they all noticed that she had been wearing it which meant that he had asked her already, not that they thought she wouldn't say yes.

"Congratulations you guys! We're so happy for the both of you!" Lydia said for the group before most of them moved to give Kira a hug because they all knew it was coming but they didn't know when. After they all said congratulations and gave Kira and Scott some hugs there was one question that was still bugging Scott.

"So why'd you guys pull us over here?" They all smiled and then Malia replied to answer the question.

"Ummm we just wanted to say hi, so bye!" They all quickly hurried off into the school and left Scott and Kira standing there absolutely confused.

"That was odd." Kira whispered to Scott before grasping his hand and lacing her fingers with his.

"So it wasn't just me?" Scott smiled as he looked at her. She shook her head before pulling Scott towards the school.

Malia was sitting on the benches in Lacrosse practice when she looked up and saw Kira get smashed with the ball because she was looking at something other than the game. She popped out of her seat and started running towards her and a worried and somewhat angry Scott who was now down next her asking her heaps of questions. She seemed a little dazed but she looked fine although Scott however did not look okay. He almost looked furious.

"Scott, is something wrong?" He shook his head but his eyes flashed a crimson red for a second before she began to help Scott with Kira. "We need to get out of here, you look like you're about to explode in anger."

"That's what I feel like." Before anyone including Coach could make it over to them Scott picked Kira up in his arms and hurried towards the school. They eventually reached a little alcove where no one would find them and Scott slowly put Kira down and sat down next to her making sure she was okay.

"Scott, what in god's name was that? I've never seen you like that before, is something wrong with you?" Scott looked up at Malia with the big sad puppy dog eye before he shook his head a little.

"I don't know, I mean all I felt was anger towards the person who hit her and I just wanted to hurt them and it was like I had no control over it." He put his arm around Kira as she sort of recovered from her time in the clouds when they heard something.

"It's a failsafe." They twisted their heads round to see Derek who had propped himself up against a pole.

"What do you mean it's a failsafe?" Malia asked because she as curious to know more than what she had figured out by herself.

"Wolves have this natural reaction that when their children are threatened to protect them and especially the alpha of the pack and that reaction is just a failsafe to protect their children." They understood but one thing was still unclear.

"What are you doing here Derek?" He shrugged.

"I had nothing better to do so I thought I would come and-"

"Creeper the Lacrosse training?" Derek laughed and a grin creped across his face.

"I was just watching to make sure nothing was wrong and lucky enough I was here." Malia raised a single eyebrow before dipping her head towards him and he raised his hands in defence before walking off as Kira began to stir in Scott's arms.
