Derek finally sat at his office exhausted. Even though in the beginning the evidence he and Laura had, seemed useful, it turned out they didn't lead anywhere. Derek didn't know what to do. Another day wasted, he thought. Some days like this one he actually considered giving up. To admit that they were wrong and there is no such thing as the Dollhouse. But his instinct was telling him to keep going even though no one believed them. This and his sister were the only things stopping him from just going in the Sheriff's office to ask for a new case.

"Hey Hale, there is someone here saying that they have information about the Dollhouse"officer Greenberg said. Derek turned around shocked. "Really ?"he asked. "Yeah, her name is Barbie. She also asked that when you find it to bring Ken back"he replied before laughing hysterically along with the rest of the officers there. "Hey Greenberg, at least we do have a case to work on. Do you remember why they stopped giving you cases ? Oh yeah! It was because last time you almost burned the house of the witnesses and they sued us"Laura joked from behind Greenberg. He stopped laughing and turned to look at her. The other officers kept laughing enjoying the show.

"That was an accident and you know it"he said back furiously. "If you say so"she said smiling before turning to look at her brother. "Come on Der, time to go"and then left. At first, Derek didn't move still a little shocked and also trying to hide his own smile. He stood up to leave but as he passed Greenberg he heard him whisper "Careful Hale, one day your big sister won't be there to defend you and that's when I'm going to make you pay"he hissed. Derek tried to ignore him and kept walking out of the station and towards the car where Laura waited for him already in the passenger's seat.

He got in the car and started driving in silence. Once they reached home his sister turned to look at him with a worried look on her face. "Derek don't let them get to you. Especially Greenberg. He just has nothing better to do than be an asshole to everyone"she said softly. "Don't worry Laura. I'm fine". At her disbelieving look he sighed. "Really. The day I let Greenberg scare me will be the day pigs learn how to fly". She let out a chuckle, obviously believing him and turned to open the car door to get out when she noticed that her brother hadn't moved. "Aren't you coming ?"she asked. "I promised mum that I would go to the grocery store" he replied. "Then I'm coming with you"she said ready to put her seat-belt back on. "No Laura. It has been a long day and you need to rest. I'll be fine"he said. "Are you sure ?"she asked. "Yes, go on"he reassured her and Laura nodded and got out of the car. Derek gave you one more reassuring  smile before he started driving.

Once he reached the grocery store he sighed. He really hated shopping. In the store he was trying to read Cora's awfully written list when he hit someone causing him to lose his balance and fall on the person that he hit. "I'm so sorry. I wasn't looking where I was going"he said and hurried to stand up and help the other person, a boy around his twenties. When the boy looked up at him Derek stood speechless staring at his whiskey eyes. They were the most beautiful eyes he'd ever seen. The boy smiled. "It's ok, I should be looking where I was going too but I just moved here and I was really tired but then I realized that my fridge was empty so I had to come to get groceries and now I'm going to stop talking. Sorry"the boy said and looked down, a blush covering his cheeks. Derek chuckled. "Well, now that we have both apologized. I'm Derek. I'm a police officer so if you ever need anything while staying here you can ask me"he said, giving his hand for a handshake. The boy took his hand and shook it. "Nice to meet you Derek. I'm Stiles"

Sooo what do you think ? I'm sorry I haven't updated for so long but my exams started and I really didn't have time to do anything but study. Now though I'm almost finished so I had time to write some more. Anyway, what do you think so far ? What do you think of Greenberg ? Or Stiles ?Please like and comment. See you next time. BYE!!!
