Never Let Me Go || Young Derek Hale

SIX

Derek POV

**A week later**

"What were you thinking?! What are you thinking?!" Peter yells at me as I  fixed my shirt and checks my hair in the reflection.

"That's the thing. He's not thinking." My sister Laura calls from the living room.

"Derek are you even paying attention? You went on a date during the full moon! You practically shifted in front of her! And now you want to go on another date with this girl?" He yelled, trying to make his words get through me.

"She's not just some girl. And I know what I'm doing. Its not a full moon anymore either, so this date can only go better." I turns away from the mirror and grabs my coat from the closet.

"You do realize the minute she finds out what you really are she will hate you. Run away from you in fear, and possibly tell someone." This causes my movements to falter.

"Peter, would you knock it off?" my mother, Talia said as she walked down the stairs next to the front door. "Have a great night sweetheart." She ruffles my hair, ruining his previous efforts, and pushes me out the door. She tosses me the keys and closes the door.

I hops in the car and drives to Scarlett house. Knocking on the door I shifts his weight as I waits for Scarlett to answer. She pushes the door open and usher me inside. "Hey, I just need to find my shoes, do you want a drink or anything?"

"No I'm fine." she walk back towards the front door, now with shoes. I hands her a pot with her favorite flower planted in it. "Whats this?" she ask as she takes it, smiling at me.

"Well, bouquets only last for a few days. Now you can keep this and let it grow." I bites the inside of his cheek nervously.

"I love it." she set it on the counter next to a window and follow me out to the car. "I'm excited for this movie. Action, adventure, comedy."

I snorts. "We're going to see a horror movie."

"Thats exactly what I just said. I don't know what horror movies you watch?"

"I take it you're not easily scared. I'll have to keep that in mind." I  observes as I pulls into the parking lot.

"What's that supposed to mean? Are you going to try and kill me or something?"

"Nonsense, if I was planning your assassination I'd be a little more discreet about it."

She laughs as I puts my arm around your shoulder. "Thats all I ask."

The movie went great. She sat cuddled up next to me, whispering about plot holes and theories. We both went through three buckets of popcorn with snowcaps in them, claiming they were the best. When I dropped her off at her front porch it was dark out.

"Its the perfect setting for a horror movie you know. A serial killer or werewolf could pop out of the bushes at any moment." she joke and she look for her key in her purse.

"Yeah," I says awkwardly.

"I had fun Derek, I'll see you tomorrow." Scarlett smile before she slip inside and lock the door.

"Bye." I says to nobody in particular as I gets into the car. Just as I starts it she burst out off the door and run up to it. "Did you forget something?"

"Yeah," she breathe as I open the passenger door and search the floor.

"Here, let me help look." I leans over and searches the floor too. She look up and move her head closer to mine. She kissed me so quickly that I froze in shock, not sure how to react.

She pull away and wink. "I found it." she shut the door and I was still frozen in place. "See you around Hale."
