EMMA's POV
I wake up alone in bed. I guess Derek left, classes have already started but I'm too tired to go today. I'm just going to take a shower, change in fresh PJ's and hang out on the couch. With this mindset I make my way to the bathroom.
I open my bathroom door only to see the light is on. Strange I thought I switch it off last night. As I get in further I see Derek standing in front of the mirror.
"Oh, I'm sorry I didn't realize you were in here. I thought you would be in your own ro-" I start to say but then my eyes land on his wounds that used to be more severe yesterday. I take a step towards him and run my hand over it. "How?" I ask confused.
"Being supern-" he stops himself from saying supernatural and it makes me smile that he thinks about what I told him yesterday. "Being a werewolf has its advantages like healing very fast."
"I'll reapply some cream on the burns. They'll probably heal even faster with the cream it's a really good one." I tell him about to take my hand of his wound when he places his own hand on top of mine.
"Thank you. I never really said that last night but I'm very grateful for the way you looked after me. After everything you've been through you could have just let me to rotten especially after seeing I'm not human."
"I already knew you weren't human. I just didn't want to accept it yet because it would mean you could seriously hurt me but seeing you like that yesterday made me believe you weren't going to hurt me." I confess to him. Feeling a bit shy I take my hand from under his and take care of his wounds again.
"But how did you know?" he asks me curious of how I realised.
"I've seen your eyes turn yellow a couple of times when you were mad. I just always assumed my mind was playing tricks with me. There were other signs too like the fact you hid your nails when you were angry and especially since your hands were bleeding yesterday."
He gives me tiny nod I don't he realised giving. "How are you feeling today?" he then asks me looking at my waist.
"I'm okay. Happy to catch up on sleep. I'm still too tired to get to class though. Not that anyone would care if I showed up. Maybe just Saph, Bennet and James."
"Emma, the guy that had his hand on your back yesterday who was that?" he asks with a bit of hostility in his voice.
"Bennett, why?"
"I think you should stay away from him." Excuse me? He's only one of my three friends I have here.
"And why would I do that? He's my friend." I ask him.
"Because he's just pretending to like you." I scoff at his answer.
"Right, because there's no way a guy would actually like me. Thanks a lot! I thought we were getting along but I guess I was wrong. Bye, Derek." I tell him pointing towards the door.
"I didn't say that but-" I don't even let him finish his sentence suddenly feeling very hurt.
"Just leave, Derek."
"You know what, I was just trying to protect you but fuck this. Enjoy your life with prince Charming!" He then walks out of my bathroom. I jump a little as he slams my bedroom door shut. I close my bathroom door and slide down it.
As I lean my head against it I feel tears falling down my face and I don't even know why. I'm angry at myself for crying for no reason. Anger is a great way to rid of tears that why I succeed in getting up and going back to my room to grab my phone and speaker.
I connect the both of them with each other and decide on some rock, metal, punk. They're always a great idea when you're pissed off. I boost the volume and get into the shower after undressing and taking off the bandage from my waist.
