My knight in shining armour (teen wolf) (Derek & Stella )

Ch 19

DEREK'S POV

It's been a week. A week since I snapped at Stella. Since I lost control. A week since she said goodbye. A week of regretting taking it out on her the way I did. A week of regretting letting her walk out of my cabin.

It's been a week of watching her sleep every night. I sneak into her room and just watch her sleep peacefully. A week of stalking her around the campus from a distance. Jealousy eats me alive whenever I see anybody flirts with her or even talk to her. It's been crazy. I've been trying to gather the courage to talk to her, to face her. But I keep failing. Because part of me wants her to live a normal danger-free human life. But the other part can't seem to survive without her. She's all I've been thinking about ever since I met her.

She met with her friends Scott and Kira today. I only know their names 'cause I've been eavesdropping a lot. I can tell they make her happy.

She also met that jerk Jason! I can tell he's bad news. Not 'cause I can see Stella is attracted to him. Not 'cause Stella blushes whenever stupid Jason talks to her. But the way Jason looks at her. It's just so, vicious? Like a beast looking at it's prey. It doesn't matter though 'cause I'm not letting him get the slightest chance of hurting Stella. Even if I have to kill him.

Stella's POV

We reach one of the seniors' house, where the party is held. It's quite loud. We enter and I feel the sudden urge to leave!

"Scott I don't feel like partying I wanna leave" I whine to Scott.
"Stellaaa! Relax. It'll be fun" Scott tells me.
"But it's packed! You know I don't feel comfortable in crowded places" I whine some more.
"C'mon Stells you need to meet people! Make friends!" Scott shouts through the loud blasting music. I dropped it 'cause I know Scott will never let me leave.

Scott and Keira pulled me to dance with them. I am so uncomfortable. People are literally shoulder to shoulder I don't like that.

"I'mna go get us some drinks" I yelled to Scott, he just nodded.

I went to the bar.
"What can I get you?" The bartender asked me.
Just as I was about to answer. Someone came from behind me and hugged me wrapping their arms around my waist.
"I've looked everywhere for you!" He whispered in my ear sending goosebumps to my body.

I turned to see Jason smiling. He looked good. Scratch that, he looked hot! But I just met him today and he's already giving me hugs?!

"H-hey Jason!" We were standing uncomfortably close. So I took one step back giving myself some personal space.

"How's the party?" He was standing kinda wobbly. The party is just starting and he's starting to get drunk already.

"It's great!" I lied. I hated it. It's loud, crowded, and dark.
"Awesome! Come with me I'll introduce you to some of my friends."
He took my hand and pulled me to walk with him out of the house. I guess his friends are out here. I'm just glad I got out of there.

"Where are your friends?" I asked as I realize we got pretty far. We crossed the street and entered  the woods now.
"They like to party here." He's holding my hand in his strong grip.

I began to worry. This didn't seem right or safe to me.

Stella relax! What could happen? Stop being a scared little kid. A voice in my head told me.

DEREK'S POV

I lost Stella in that stupid party. I was watching her but she disappeared through the crowds. I couldn't find her. I had no choice but to ask Scott.
"Hey Scott. Where's Stella?" I asked him worried.

"And you are?" Scott asked me.

"Where. The. Hell. Is. Stella?" I asked him again losing my temper.

"Sh-she w-went t-to get us d-drinks about 15 m-minutes ago.." He was scared.

I ran out and immediately caught her scent and followed it.
Shit!
I hope she's okay..
