The Forgotten Hale | Teen Wolf / Chris Argent

18. The Other Side

*Aiyana's POV*
-"Uhm, Deucalion. I must attend to the school tomorrow. It's because of my grade in that class," I mumbled, looking up at the building he had led me to. The same apartment that Chris live's in?

-"No worries. I live here, obviously. That shouldn't be a problem, should it? As long as you come back afterwards. Now, let's go quickly through the rules of my pack. Only I am your alpha, none of the others. If someone messes around with you, you're allowed to mess back. I don't want anyone dead though. If there's any missions you find interesting, tell so to me. Maybe you'll be allowed to go on them. If I sign you up for any, you must do them. Is that understood?"

I nodded, crossing my arms.
-"Yeah. I'm going home. Wait, I have to get Baron first!" I said a little too loud, following Deucalion in the elevator. He simply smirked, stepping aside.
-"Do you have a lot of stuff in Chris's apartment? And, why did you suddenly decide to join me now?" Deucalion asked, turning towards me. He took his glasses off, raising an eyebrow.

-"I'm no longer with him anymore. I wasn't enough for him. As far I know, I'm all alone. That's why I chose you, because you're the only one who cares about me anymore. At least that's what it seems," I answered, looking back at him.
-"That's.. sad, actually. You'll need to have a kid on your own. Listen, come to the 6th floor after you've gathered your stuff. We'll look at you, and then we'll figure out where you'll be staying the next.. weeks," Deucalion replied, stepping closer to me as the elevator doors opened. I nodded, walking past.

-"Baron!" I yelled out, walking to the living room. Baron just laid across the couch as if nothing else on the world mattered. "Get your stuff. We're leaving." He slowly got up, walking over to the kitchen. Not long after, he returned with his plate of water, laying it down beside the couch.

I nodded for myself, walking to the bathroom. I got everything that I had, then I moved on to the bedroom. As I picked up my last item, a tear fell. What is it that Melissa has, the thing that I don't have? It makes no sense though... I though and believed Chris was happy with me. I never once really cared about him feelings then... Perhaps this is for the best? Will he finally be happy without me? Be happy with the woman he truly loves? Let's at least hope so...

I threw all of mine and Baron's stuff in a big bag, going to the elevator. Once the doors opened, I almost got shocked. Chris walked out of the elevator, staring at me. His eyes went down to my bag, then Baron.
-"Here," I mumbled, holding up the key. He walked up to me, not saying a word. He grabbed the key, putting it in his pocket. "Come, boy," I muttered, stepping into the elevator. I'm not even gonna look at his face. I'm honestly too ashamed of the both of us to do so. I pressed the button to the 6th floor, leaving.

The trip up was quick, and Deucalion just stood there casually as the doors opened.
-"I must admit that was quick," he said, looking at me as I stepped out. Baron ran past me, already searching his new place.
-"Obviously I did it quickly. Where will I be sleeping if I'm gonna stay here?"
-"In the guest room, of course! It's the door to the right over there," Deucalion said, pointing to the door.

-"Fine. Thank you," I replied, walking over to the room. As I opened the room, I felt a short chill go up my spine. Where have I seen these before? "Where'd you get this? It's... like I've seen it all before," I mumbled, stepping inside. The room was lit, a lot of stuff that reminded me of my childhood room laid around.
-"Seen it before? Where?" Deucalion asked, walking in to the room as well.

I let my bag down beside the bed, letting out a sigh.
-"It just feels like my first room. It doesn't matter, I like it. Can we just.. get the bullet out now?"
Deucalion looked at me for a second, then nodded.

*Allison's POV*
I looked at Kate, scratching my neck. I wonder how things are going back at home..
-"How does it feel? Like, returning to your father again?" Kate asked, parking the car. She killed the engine, looking towards me.
-"It's not that long since we left. At least it doesn't feel like it. It will probably be just fine. I'm excited to see Aiyana's stomach though. Do you think it's big!?" I asked, looking up to my father's apartment.
