Tyra's P.O.V.
"What do you mean he's my mate?" I asked.
"Well, mates are two wolves , well in your case two species, that were destined to be together. They were brought together by fate. They live for one another. They basically protect one another and be together for as long as they live. They can feel each other's pain, emotions, desires." Deaton finished.
This is a lot to take in. I would've never guessed that my mate would end up being the person I used to hate with a passion. Now I can only think that I wouldn't want it to be anyone else. Derek squeezed my hand lightly and grinned.
"But," Deaton started, earning both of our attention. "Technically you are not mates truly until the deed is done."he says.
"What do you mean 'until the deed is done'? Do we need to sign something?"Derek asks. Deaton smirks and raises his eyebrows.
" That means you will not truly be mates until the two of you mate." he says putting emphasis on the word "mate". Oh god.
"Are you saying that we need to have sex enable to be true mates?" I asked.
"Indeed I am. Although, during the mating process, both mates must leave a mark of their own on one another. That way they will always be known as each others. You will be his and he will be yours. No one else's." he informs us. Both me and Derek look at each other. This is a huge step in whatever this relationship is. But as Deaton says, we were brought together by fate. We were meant to be together forever.
" When does this have to happen?" Derek asks.
"Well, very soon. The stronger the bond is between the two of you, the more you can protect each other." he answers. "Now I suggest you two head home. It is a school day tomorrow." he smiles. (Pretend its Sunday and the party was on Saturday.)
We say our goodbyes and exit the clinic.
"Well, that was....interesting."Derek chuckles.
"Yeah, it sure was." I say.
He stops us a little far from the jeep. He grabs both of my hands in his and holds them.
"Hey, are you OK with this?" he asks, full of concern.
"OK with what?" I ask.
"With..you know... us? Being mates? I know its a lot to take in." he asks carefully. I smile at his cuteness.
" Of course I am. There's no one I'd rather have be my mate." I said. He smiled and leaned down and kissed my cheek. "Oh, and I heard that whole little conversation with you and Liam in the car. It was sweet." I said, making him blush.
"Well, its true. You are perfect." he says.
"Please I am far from it. You are perfect." I said. He rolled his eyes. Then we heard Stiles honk the horn on his jeep.
"Hey, come on I have to get this little brat and you guys home!" he yelled from the car. I heard Liam say "Hey!" and both me and Derek laughed and walked back to the car.

I woke up to my alarm clock for school. Another day in hell. I got up and went to the bathroom to start the shower. I walked back out and over to my closet. I decided on a black flowy yet short crop top that showed my bellybutton that was pierced, black skinny jeans and some black lace-up booties with heels. I also picked out a black leather jacket.
After I showered and got dressed I brushed my long hair and decided to leave it down. (it kind of looks like kate's in the second episode.) I got my stuff and walked downstairs.
