Blue eyes [Teen wolf/Derek Hale]

Ch87 - Midnight memories

Dedicated to tayna_marie12 for not only reading this story but also my other one! (Born to be Dauntless on my other account: lisaatjuuh)

People always say that it's one of the best things to wake up next to the person you love. They are wrong. When I opened my eyes, I stared straight into Derek's. We were just a couple inches away from each other. I freaked out and jumped up.

"Good morning to you too." Derek said with a grin. "Your heart is racing."

"Of course it is! You gave me a heart attack!" I exclaimed dramatically but got cut off by my yawn.

"Well, at least there's more bed for me." he said and rolled on his stomach with his arms wide.

I pretended to gasp and sat on his back. "Uh, no."

Derek mumbled something in the pillow but didn't throw me off. My eyes fell on his tattoo again. I really liked it. Without realizing it, I began to trace it with my fingertips.

"How painful is it to get a tattoo?" I asked absentmindedly. I've always heard that it was painful but I could never imagine anything by it.

"Excruciating for wolves."

"What do you mean?"

"With a normal tattoo you basically wound yourself. If we would get an tattoo, it would heal. We have to take a much more painful route to be able to get one." Derek managed to turn around and stared at me. "Why? Do you want one?"

I shook my head. "Not now at least. I just like your tattoo."

We both smiled like complete idiots after that until my brain notified me of it. I felt the heat rise to my ears and I laid my head on Derek's chest.

"Now shut up. I wanna go back to sleep."

I heard his chest rumble with laughter and he wrapped his arms around me. "Okay."

I spend the rest of the week just doing random things with Derek instead of being smart and study for the test on monday. I don't know how they got the news but even Oliver and Emberly knew that I'd kissed Derek. Emberly avoided me for as much as she could and Oliver didn't really talk to me in the first place. Not that I'm complaining.

Derek and I had stayed up most of the night. We didn't even do it on purpose. I'd challenged him to climb a tree since he'd been bragging about his climbing skills. So we went outside, to the forest. I'd laughed when he couldn't get any higher than three meters above the ground. Which Derek accepted as an invitation to hunt me.

We'd been running around for a couple of minutes now. Derek was hot on my heels. I quickly jumped over a fallen log and sprinted a bit faster. My heart was pounding. I smiled when I saw that I'd shook him off for now.

"You'll never catch me!" I shouted dramatically as I began to head to some rocks.

I didn't hear Derek respond. I didn't hear Derek at all. Where did he go?

Suddenly I felt two arms wrap around me and lifted me in the air. "Gotcha." Derek whispered in my ear after I'd let out a shriek of surprise.

"Fiiiiine, I'll admit it. You're a better werewolf than me." I said while throwing my head back. I felt Derek laugh as I stared to the sky. It was already dark, it had been for a while. It was a little clouded but the moon was just visible between the clouds.

"What time is it?"

"Uhm... Past midnight, that's for sure. Maybe two or three AM?"

"I should really go." I said softly "I can't skip tomorrows test, the teacher gives me the creeps."

"Chemistry huh?" Derek guessed.

"Of course, who else would give me the creeps?" I said with a grin.

We walked back to Derek's car and he drove me to Stiles's place. "I'm not letting you go before you kiss me." he said seriously as he locked the car doors.

I bit my lip in order not to grin. "Well what should I do with that information?"

He grinned back and I leaned in. I never knew how addicting kissing could be. The warm tingling feeling of butterflies erupted in my stomach as I felt his lips touch mine. I could feel him smile. After a few seconds we pulled back and Derek's smile quickly faded.

"What's wrong?" I asked him silently as he looked past me.

"You might be in trouble." He answered. I turned around to Stiles's house and saw the lights turn on.

"Oh..."
