Stiles was grateful it was Saturday, so they didn't have to skip classes. Again. Scott and Stiles also had gotten the promising looking player Liam injured. Scott, as diligent as ever, had to stop a wendigo from killing Liam and in the process but Liam. They had devised a plan and got Liam chained up good.
"You ready, Derek?" Stiles was stuck with Derek and half watching Liam. Scott watched Liam and Malia.
"Yea," Derek replied, glancing over at Liam, "This is going to suck." Liam looked over at Derek, relief almost present on his face.
"Did these wackos lock you up too?" Liam asked him. Derek shrugged, trying to keep both of them calm. He breathed in heavily as his claws and fangs slid out, trying to concentrate.
"Derek, you know how to do this," Stiles comforted the werewolf, "Focus on your anchor."
"I know!" Derek growled, pulling at his chains. Liam was going through the same, but Scott was controlling him, helping him. Stiles decided that even if Derek would kill him, he would help too.
"Just focus on whatever you need to focus on," Stiles said, placing his hands on Derek's shoulders. Derek's eyes flashed, and his sight fixed on Stiles' eyes. Derek slowly retracted his fangs and claws, and tried to keep his wolf down.
"Liam, calm yourself, control it," Scott was consoling Liam, as the freshman kept snarling. Malia was controlling it, whispering a small mantra.
"Are you okay?" Stiles said to Derek, slowly taking his hands off Derek.
"Yes..." Derek said, panting. His eyes faded back and he relaxed against the wall. Stiles chuckled, then went over to Liam, who was struggling.
As the night crawled to an end, Scott was able to relax Liam and get Liam up to date. Eventually Liam trusted them.
"Can I get the chains off yet?" Derek asked Stiles. Stiles quickly nodded and took off his chains.
"Figures that my anchor decided to change now..." Derek muttered, rolling his eyes.
"What do you mean, change?" Stiles asked, eyeing up Derek.
"I mean it isn't anger anymore," Derek growled, walking off.
"Come on, sourwolf!" Stiles called after him, smirking as he caught up.
"It's... it's you." Derek said, suddenly turning around. Stiles was surprised as Derek suddenly kissed him, and soon melted into the werewolf's touch. Derek then ran off, having startled himself.
"Where'd Derek go?" Liam asked Stiles, jogging up to the human. Stiles turned to him, face still a mirror of surprise.
"I... don't know," Stiles answered, then went with the others, figuring Derek would be waiting at the Stilinski house.
