Brooke's POV

Scott, stiles, and I go to our cars, and I pretend to drive off. Once they drive off, I drive the opposite direction, back to my house. I hope Derek is there so I can have at least another day with him. As I'm pulling into the "driveway", Derek comes outside.

"Derek what the heck!" I shout, slamming my car door.

Ignoring me, he runs to the side of the house, discovering Laura's dug up body.

"I- I don't know" he mumbles.

  "Why didn't you stop us. Why didn't you use your senses and chase us away?" I begin to cry.

"Brooke.." He looks at me confused.

  "Derek they're going to take you to jail!" I shout, tears falling down my face.

Derek looks at me in shock, almost as if he didn't know we were there. I run and give him a hug that he immediately gives into.

"It's gonna be ok" he tries to reassure me.

"How do you know that. What if you're in jail for the rest of your life because they think you killed Laura?" I pull away from him.

  I look at Derek, and still see no worry. I've never seen my older brother look threatened in his life.

"What am I supposed to do without you?" I cry.

  "You're going to make sure Scott doesn't play that game tomorrow" Derek places his hand on my shoulder.

"You're about to go to jail and the only thing you worry about is Scott?" I cross my arms.

  He looks at me sullenly, not giving me an answer.

"Unbelievable" I roll my eyes, and stop into the house.
~~~~~

Derek gave me a few hours to calm down, which he has learned to do since I have wolfed out on him in the past, and then he came and sat down next to me.

"Sorry about earlier" I apologize.

  "It's ok. You're scared" he places an arm around me.

"I'm being serious Derek. What do I do if you go to prison forever?" I look up at him.

  "You'll do what you're doing now, except without me" he frowns.

By the look I give him, he can tell that's not good enough.

  "Do you trust me?" My brother asks.

"Of course" I answer.

  "I'm gonna get us out of this. Stay the night with one of your idiotic friends tonight ok? I have a plan" he stands up.

I hesitate, grabbing his hand before he can walk away.

"Brooke, I promise. Trust me ok?" He says.

I hug him one last time, and he plants a kiss on my forehead. With that, I walk out the door and into my car, praying this isn't the last time I see my brother
~~~~~~

I pull up to Stiles house, and knock on his front door with a backpack full of clothes. I had to bring all my clothes and place the, in my car since the police will be inside my house tomorrow. The door opens, and I am met with an awkwardly cute boy with a buzz cut.

  "Hey Brooke. You ok?" He smiles.

"My brother and I... Had a fight. Do you mind if I crash on the couch tonight?" I ask, lying.

  "Of course not. Come in" he opens the door wider so I can walk in.

"Thank you so much" I say, holding back tears. I don't know why I'm so emotional tonight, I guess I just don't want to loose all my family in one month.

  "It's no problem. I'll just get a few blankets and pillows for you" he smiles, walking up the stairs to his room.

I smile, making my way to the couch. I place my stuff on the ground and look around the house. Stiles comes back in not even 2 minutes, giving me two pillows and three blankets.

  "It gets cold at night, so I just was making sure you wouldn't get cold" he rubs the back of his neck, which he does when he gets nervous.

"Thank you stiles, really. It means a lot" I begin fixing a bed.

  "No problem Brooke, I'll see you in the morning" he begins walking away.

"Night Stiles" I smile.

   "Night" he mutters, going to his room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I didn't sleep much last night, thinking about what is happening today. I am woken up the next morning by stiles falling down his stairs. Since I was asleep, I jump off the couch and feel my eyes turn yellow. I quickly look to the ground, making them turn back to my normal color.

"Stiles? Are you ok?" I turn the corner.

Once I get to the stairs, stiles is laying flat on his face, arms and legs sprawled out all over the floor. I muffle a laugh, going to help him up.

  "Never  better" I grunts.

"Scott just texted me saying to meet at Derek's house" I get butterflies telling stiles this.

  "Alright. Get changed and then we'll go." He rubs his head, which I assume is throbbing from his fall.

I grab my clothes and go to change in the bathroom, taking as much time as I can
~~~~~~~~~

We arrive to my home, peeking through the bushes and my older brother is being escorted to the car. I tighten my jaw, watching as Derek gives Scott a death glare. I look at Scott, who looks very ashamed. Derek is shoved into the cop car, and the police walk away, back into the house.

  "Be right back" stiles whispers, jumping over the bushes.

"What, stiles!" I whisper, but am too late.

  I look over at Scott who looks mortified, but he doesn't go after stiles. Rolling my eyes, I run after him. He jumped into the passenger seat, so I go around to the drivers side and jump in.

"What are you doing here?" Stiles asks me.

  "Funny. I was about to ask you the same thing" I give him the famous hale glare.

Stiles looks at me intimidated, but then looks at Derek and says "okay, just so you know, I'm not afraid of you."

  Derek also glares, making stiles look like he's about to pee himself.

"Okay maybe I am. I just want to know something. The girl you killed? She was a werewolf. A different kind wasn't she?" I shiver at the words "you killed"

   "She could turn herself into an actual wolf , and I know Scott can't do that. Is that why you killed her?" Stiles gets closer to the cage.

"Why are you so worried about me? It's your friend you should be worried about. He's a loose cannon waiting to explode."Derek gets closer to the cage, causing stiles to back away.

Derek then looks at me and says," you can't let him play the first game."

He then looks stiles up and down and adds," And trust me, you'll want to stop him"

Stiles stares at Derek, but then is pulled from the car out of the side, and I know I will be pulled out next.

  "Your plan better work sour wolf" I stare

"Trust me" is all I can hear him say before I am yanked out of the car.
