"Jesus," you said as you dodged another punch from the unfamiliar werewolf. "Look, I just want to know where I can find Scott McCall." He grabbed you by the shoulders and threw you against the alley wall. You fell into it and it cracked. "I didn't want to do this," you stood up and your face morphed into that of a wolf. You delivered a swift kick to his balls. He doubled over, giving you the opportunity to flip him onto the ground.
"Hey!"
You turned to the sound of Scott's familiar voice. "Scott?" You and the other werewolf said at the same time.
"Wait a minute," you frowned. "Scott, you know this weak creature?"
The weak creature glared at you, and you glared back.
"[Y/N], this is Derek. Derek, this is [Y/N]," Scott said.
"Oh," you said, embarrassed. "You're Scott's pack."
"And you're Scott's new Beta," Derek spoke for the first time.
"What exactly happened here?" Scott eyed the cracked wall.
"Your new Beta came up to me asking if I knew Scott McCall," Derek explained. "I assumed she was on the other side."
"And he started it," you added.
"You really want me to help you train her?" Derek scowled.
"Sorry," you said. "I'm just a little new."
Derek looked at Scott, who made a face as if suggesting Derek say something. "It's okay," Derek said. "Scott was the same way a few years ago."
"But you're going to teach me everything you know?" You pressed. "Like how to control myself on full moons? How to fight without having to kick people in the nuts?"
"Yeah," Derek's scowl transformed into a more neutral look. "So do you want to go get some coffee or something before we start training?"
"Wait, you never offered me coffee," Scott frowned. Derek glared, and Scott's eyes widened, "oh."
"I'd love to get coffee," you smiled. Derek almost smiled back, and the two of you walked away from Scott, off to the coffee shop. Off to your first date.
