You Anchor Me

It all begins

"Isaac, who is at the door?" Derek asks walking up to join Isaac," Cameron, why are you here?" I don't answer him instead I stare into Isaac's eyes. They are filled with anger and his jaw is tightly clenched. "Who did it?" He gently turns my head," Was it Scott? I'm going to kill him." "Isaac, honey calm down," I place my hand on his bare chest. "Calm down? How can I calm down when you have a bruised hand print on the side of your face?" "I'm fine, it hurts but I'll be fine," I smile before telling them what had happened. "Sweetie, come here," Isaac pulls me against him and I bury hide my face in his shoulder.

"You stood up for me?" Lyric asks leaning against the wall. "That's sort of what friends do," I laugh. She walks over and gives me a hug," Thank you. No one has ever stood up for me like that. You're an amazing friend." "You're welcome, darling. You're an amazing friend too," I smile and whisper," and Scott said you are pretty." When she pulls back her cheeks are glowing red.

"So Derek can I stay the night here?" "You can stay as long as you want , squirt." "Ugh what's with all the short nicknames? I am normal height!" I huff. "You are so small compared to us," Isaac bends down and puts his head on my shoulder hugging me from behind. "I can't help that you two are tall," I laugh turning to kiss his cheek.

"Okay eew I'm going to bed," Derek turns heading for the steps. "It's only nine thirty!" I exclaim. "I need my beauty sleep. I wouldn't be this hot without it," he jokes pulling up his shirt to show us his abs. "Go to bed," Lyric throws a pillow at him. He catches it laughing and throws it back at her. " I like this side of Derek ," I tell Isaac. "He has been a lot happier and relaxed since she has came which is the opposite of what Boyd and I thought would happen," he explains kissing my ear. I give him a weird look but end up laughing. "I'm going to bed too. I want to be well rested for my first day of school," Lyric says her goodnights and disappears too.

"Go up to my room and change. I'll be up in a minute," Isaac shoos me up the stairs. When I get up the stairs and in his room I strip down to my teal underwear and bra. Shielding myself behind the closet door, I dress in a black tank top and a pair of gray sweat pants.

When Isaac comes upstairs he is holding an ice pack, two cokes, and a box of gogurt. "You are amazing," I smile as I put in the best Disney princess movie ever. "Did you bring the Little Mermaid?" He laughs setting down the things on the nightstand. "Yes I did now get your sexy ass in bed and give me my gogurts," I laugh. "You think I have a sexy ass?" he grins. "Turn around," I motion my finger in a circle. He does what I say and I nod," Yeah that's definitely a sexy ass." He chuckles and gets in bed. I run my hand over his chest and put my leg in between his. "Put this on your cheek," he hand me the ice pack with a dish towel wrapped around it. "Thank you," I take the cold rag and press it to my left cheek.

Towards the end of the movie I begin to get bored. With my face so close to his chest anyways I kiss his bare skin. I begin to move my lips up his body and kiss his collar bone slowly making my way to his neck. He moans when I get right below his ear. "Mmm well that was sexy," I laugh against his chest. "Shut up," he chuckles. "What did you say?" I pin his arms back. He uses his werewolf abilities to flip us over and pins my arms back.

Isaac hovers over me and I'm lost in his pretty blue eyes. We start to lean in and he lets my arms go. I run my hands up his arms and into his hair with a smile. Isaac returns the smile before closing the gap. Our lips move in sync and I keep playing with his hair. My legs go around his waist and he bends down to kiss me harder. I pull away breathing hard with a grin," That was our first kiss." "It was," he smiles. "Well how about we give our second one a try," I suggest. Right as I get the words out his lips are on mine. I smile into the kiss and try to keep the fireworks and tingling under control.

The music from the ending credits play along with our kissing making it ten times more romantic. He pulls away and gives me two small quick kisses," We better get some sleep because it is midnight." He rolls off me and into his side of the bed. "Goodnight sweetie," I kiss his lips again before turning to face the wall. His chest is pressed against my back and his arm is wrapped around my waist. He kisses my hair and whispers," Goodnight beautiful." I then close my eyes and fall asleep to the patter if the rain outside.

-Next Morning -
"Get up! Take showers, do whatever you need to do and get out of my house," Derek yells opening the door. "Derek, go away," Isaac yells and I cuddle closer to him. "Get up or I'll go get the bucket," he threatens. "I'm up," Isaac's hands fly off of me and he stands up. I laugh into my pillow and Derek points at me," Hold her down. I'm going to get the bucket." Isaac jumps on top of me and pins my arms down. His hands travel up and down my sides as he tickles me. "Ahhhh, Isaac stop," I giggle. "Give me a kiss," he demands tickling me more. I put my hand on the back of his neck and pull him down. Our lips collide and we roll over to where I am straddling him. "Didn't want to see that first thing in the morning," Lyric jokes," but I'd get up because Derek is coming up the stairs with the bucket." We jump out of the bed and Isaac slips making him face plant. I burst out in laughter, holding my stomach," oh baby, are you okay?" "Nope," he replies. I take his hands and pull him up into his feet. I kiss him quickly before smacking his butt. "What was that for?" "Your butt is so slap able," I wink. "Why can you do that but I can't?" he whines. " I never said you couldn't," I smirk grabbing my things and heading to the bathroom making sure to sway my hips for him. I hear Isaac groan as I shut the door.

I take a quick shower and then dress in a red plaid shirt, a pair of dark skinny jeans, and my vans. Before going back to his room, I put on some jewelry and make-up.

When I walk back in the room Isaac has half his clothes on. I bite my lip and stand at the door. He turns around to get his shirt and notices me," Are you watching me get dressed." "No, I just came up to the door," I lie. "Are you done?" I nod and walk in picking up my school bag and extra clothes. "Why do you need extra clothes?" He asks putting on his shirt. "I have to work this afternoon," I smile taking a seat on the bed. "Oh I forgot you had a job. Isn't it that hardware store towards the county line?" He questions. "Yeah that's the one. I should be back by six tonight," I tell him."Do you need to get anything from your house?" He asks hugging me. "I'll go by there this afternoon." He takes my hand and we walk downstairs.

"I have to carry Lyric since she' doesn't have a car yet. Do you want a ride?" Derek offers. "I have work so I'll ride my bike," I smile," thank you though." He nods and turns to Isaac," what about you?" "I'll go with you to save gas in my bike," he laughs. "Well then let's to. Lyric come on!" Derek yells. Lyric comes down with her adventure time shirt, skinny jeans, and her combat boots. "Don't you look hot," I laugh. "Right back at you,"she winks. I tell them goodbye and get my goodbye kiss from Isaac. "Be careful," he tells me," the roads are still wet." "I will be," I promise. "Bye y'all," I wave going to the door. "Bye," they reply. I shut the door before getting on my bike and riding off to school.

-after school-

I have avoided Scott all day and he looked like he was trying to do the same. At lunch I sat with Isaac, Stiles, Lyric, Erica, and Boyd while Scott abandoned us for the it crowd
I know they we are all friends but sometimes they act like they are better than us. Gym was pretty awkward since Scott and I are rock climbing partners.

Right now I'm on my way to work. After class I had changed into a Star Wars shirt, gray shorts, and my toms. The wind is super cold against my bare skin as I ride down the highway. I should have waited until I was there before I changed. Surprisingly though today was sunny and warm. Just another day in Beacon Hills with its bipolar weather.

When I get to Stevens I walk inside and greet the owner and my boss," Hey mrs Stevens, Rickey." "Hey Cameron how was school?" "Great thanks," I smile. "So Cameron I have to work at the Dollar Store this afternoon and I was wondering if you could restock the plumbing," Rickey asks. "Sure," I smile but rethink why I work at a poultry and hardware store. "Okay well I'll see you Monday," he waves before walking to his mustang.

-Five hours later-
Once the store closed I cashed out the cash register and ran the reports. I had to go lock all the gates and close the shed before going back in and turning on the alarm. I also texted Isaac I would be working overtime tonight.

I have been rearranging this plumbing for two and a half hours. My fingers ache from clipping the tags to fit the shelves. My music blares in my ears replaying my favorite songs as I work.

As I bend down to pick up a piece I had dropped the alarm starts to ring. I take out my earphones and pick up a large PVC pipe. My heart begins to race ad I hear things falling from the shelves in the front. What sounds like claws scrape against the windows and my breathing quickens. I hold the pipe closer to my chest and walk towards the office. A growl is let out behind me and I take off running feeling a terrible blinding pain in my side.

I run towards the double doors but they are locked. "Crap. Crap. No," I scream as the creature speeds up. I take off to the other side of the store and try to find the office but instead I run into the chain rack. I stumble back but realize I'm right next to the office. I run in the little room and close the door. I push the desk against the door and hide behind the side of the fridge. I crouch down holding my side.

A whimper escapes my lips as the creature pushes against the door. Tears begin to fall when it's red eyes shine through the crack it has made. I wrap my arms around my knees and prepare for death.

A low siren rings from the distance. It is barely audible over the loud alarm. The growling and scratching ceases as the sirens come closers.

My sobs quiet down as I try to breathe normal. Suddenly the alarm is turned off and a voice shouts ," Cameron, where are you?" I stand still crying and push the desk away from the door. Sherif Stilinski is standing in front of me. He begins to move out the door to the sidewalk outside and I grip him tighter. " Shh you're okay now," he soothes me.

Mr. Stilinski let's me down as we get to the front. I wipe my stinging eyes and look out at the flashing cars. I see my brother and Stiles standing in the parking lot with worried expressions. I look past them to see Isaac standing there looking down. He wipes his eyes with his sleeve still looking at the ground. I start to run to him. Scott and Stiles face turns to hurt when I pass them and jump into Isaac's arms. I sob onto his shoulder gripping him not wanting to let him go. "Are you okay?" He puts his hand on my hair. I nod and he keeps talking," They wouldn't tell us anything. We thought you were dead." "I'm sorry," I cry. " It's not your fault baby. Nothing is your fault. I'm so glad you are safe," he sets me. I look up and put my lips on him.

"Hmm hmm are you forgetting someone?" Stiles interrupts. I pull back and look at my best friend and my brother. I turn to Scott and wipe the tears gathered at the edge of his cheek with my thumb. "Scott I'm sorry about last night. I shouldn't have punched her," I hug him. "No, I'm sorry. It was her fault. She was out of place and all I wanted to do was make her happy. I should have thought of you first," he apologizes. "Truce?" I offer. "Definitely," we shake on it.

After sorting things out with the police we get ready to leave. "Hey I'm going to call Erica. It'a important," I tell the boys. They say okay and I walk away far enough out of their hearing distance. I pull out my phone and type in his number. "Hello?" he answers. "Derek, I got bit," I tell him lifting my shirt to look at the bloody would in the moonlight
