Stiles had just woke up to the sound of his alarm, he put it on snooze for the fourth time and went back to sleep.
"Stiles wake up, now!"
He woke up immediately when he heard his dad shout from downstairs.
He got off his bed and went straight to his door and opened it.
"I'm awake!"
He shouted down to his dad, before hearing the noise of the front door slam.
'There he goes again' stiles silently thinks to himself. He walks over to his wardrobe and picks clothes out, he puts them on, then goes into the bathroom and brushes his teeth.
When he's finished, he grabs his bag, puts his books inside it and walks out of his room, downstairs. He grabs a bacon sandwich his dad left for him and walks out the door.
Stiles likes to drive to school alone, it gives him time to think, but most of the time Scott usually likes to hitch a ride with him, which he doesn't mind but sometimes it can get annoying.
Today was different, Scott hadn't even messaged Stiles this morning. Stiles tried to forget about it but the more he tried the more worked up he was getting, so he grabbed he phone and messaged him.
- Scott you alright?
Stiles waited for a reply but didn't get one, so he messaged him again.
- dude I'm starting to get worried, are you okay?
Stiles waited again and Scott still didn't answer. So Stiles sent a couple more messages asking where he was and if he was okay and then he put his phone back in his pocket.
Stiles finally reached school, but didn't see anyone. He took his phone out to check the time and it said 8:30am, the normal time he gets into school. He walks into the school and there's nothing to be heard or seen. He walks over to his locker and gets the things he needs then walks off to his first class.
He walks in and no one is there.
"Stiles?"
Someone addresses him from behind. Stiles jumps and turns around slowly. He's met face to face with the principle.
"Why are you here so early"
The principle asks. Stiles has a confused look on his face.
"I'm not early this is the normal time I come in"
Stiles says stating the obvious.
"Stiles you've never come in before 8am"
The principle says, pointing towards the clock in the classroom. Stiles eyes go wide and his mouth drops open.
"It.. It's 7:30?!!"
He sits down in a chair behind him.
"Yes it is why are you in so early?"
The principle asked Stiles once more.
"My clock was wrong, I thought it was 8:30"
Stiles starts hitting head onto the table and stops at once when someone walks through the open door.
"Um sir? We need more books for period 3, Mr Harris' class"
Stiles looks up towards who says it, and it's none other than Derek. Stiles doesn't know Derek at all, all Stiles knows is that everyone likes him.
"Oh yes Derek, I will come with you right now, Stiles care to join us"
The principle said looking from Derek to Stiles and then walks out the door, making sure Stiles is following behind.
They stop at the principles office and Derek and Stiles are told to wait outside, the principle walks into his office closing the door behind him.
Derek and Stiles both take a seat outside the office, waiting patiently for the principle.
"So what you doing here so early?"
Derek asks looking towards Stiles. Stiles heart skips a beat and his face goes pale, Stiles doesn't know what's happening to him but answers Derek's question anyway.
"My clock told me the wrong time, what about you?"
Stiles said shrugging his shoulders.
"I'm always here early, last years have to come in early to help out around the school"
Again Stiles heart skips a beat whilst Derek talks to him, he ignores it and carries on talking to him.
"Isn't that like, boring?"
Stiles asks Derek.
"I guess it is but it's what we have to do"
Derek shrugs his shoulders and looks away from Stiles and towards the principle who is now standing next to him.
'Hmm how come I didn't see him before' Stiles thought to himself but blocked it out.
"So I see you two are getting to know one another"
The principle asks us.
"Yeah, I guess, we're just chatting"
Derek says.
"Well you two will be seeing a lot more of each other"
Stiles had a confused look on his face and so does Derek, Stiles gets up and walks over to the principle.
"What do you mean?"
Stiles asks the principle still confused. The principle just starts smirking. Now both Derek are standing confused.
"Stiles don't think I forgot your little prank you done last week"
The principle says. Stiles finally realised what he's on about and buries his head in his hands.
"Bu.. But.."
Stiles tries to deny it but gets cut off.
"No buts, I have cctv footage of what you done"
The principle says ending their talk. Stiles stands there staring at the floor.
"Stiles you will be helping Derek with his work in the mornings until the end of term"
Stiles mouth hangs open and he crosses his arms.
"The term just started though!"
Stiles raised his voice a little higher as he was getting angry. Derek watched Stiles as he could see him get angry.
"Do not raise your voice at me, you are going to do what you're told other wise you are going to be excluded"
The principle says staring at Stiles.
Stiles just turns around and stomps off angrily towards the bathroom.
"I will go get him"
Derek tells the principle, before going after Stiles.
Stiles is standing in the bathroom, facing a mirror he had just smashed. Blood all over his knuckles as he's trying to calm himself down.
The bathroom door suddenly swings opens and in walks Derek. Stiles looks at Derek before running into a cubicle but before Stiles could close it Derek's foot got in the way.
"Leave me alone"
Stiles said to Derek pushing the door even more.
"Just calm down okay"
Derek says trying to keep the door open.
"I am calm, now leave me alone"
Stiles protests whilst pushing even more on the door.
"Just come out and let me check your hand!"
Derek says raising his voice a little.
Stiles lets go of the door letting Derek open it fully. Stiles walks out and walks over to the sinks.
"Let me see your knuckles"
Derek asks. Stiles shows him his bloody hand and Derek quickly runs it under water. Stiles shivers at the way Derek is touching him which makes him flinch away.
"I can do it myself"
Stiles says trying to clean it himself.
"I was just trying to help"
Derek says, heading for the door.
"No, I'm sorry"
Stiles says and Derek stops in his tracks and walks back over to Stiles.
"Look I will sort out the mirror just go to first aid and get a bandage"
Derek says cleaning the last of Stiles hand and drying it. They both walk out of the bathroom and watch as the principle walks over to them.
"Right Stiles so your excluded then"
The principle states.
"No no, he just went to the toilet, your going to exclude him for pissing?"
Stiles eyes go wide at hearing Derek say that.
"No I'm not, get to work straight away, both of you!"
The principle raises his voice and then walks away.
Stiles is just standing there with his mouth wide open.
"What?"
Derek asks.
"You can talk to him like that and he don't even care?"
Stiles said.
"Yeah why would he, he's heard his nephew swear a bunch of times"
Derek says whilst walking off towards first aid.
"Nephew? He's your uncle?!"
Stiles says trying to catch up to Derek.
"Uh yeah, his name is Peter Hale and I'm Derek Hale"
Derek said whilst walking into the first aid room.
"Oh, I never got that before.. It must be cool to be able to do anything"
Stiles says whilst sitting down on a chair in the waiting room.
"Yeah I guess, but he gets annoying, anyways the nurse isn't here so I will just put a bandage on you and then we can get to work?"
Derek says grabbing the equipment. Stiles just nods and let's Derek bandage him up. Stiles tries to knock back the butterflies in his stomach whilst Derek is touching his arm.
Derek finally finishes and they get on with their work.
