Inconsistencies

Pairing: Derek Hale x Reader

Warning: angst

Feedback is always appreciated.

“I've been looking for you.”

“For how long?”

“All day.”

Oh man... but he's serious?

"It's not disturbing at all." I whisper almost to myself. Probably Derek heard me, I can understand by his sharp look, pointing straight at me.

"Can you repeat?" Derek asks me, taking a few steps towards me. With his air of macabre and creepy, he would dwarf even the most predatory animal that I know – and it's not the wolf.

Too bad that – in spite of his accusing eyes make my legs completely gelatinous – I can't keep my mouth closed, and I repeat to him my thoughts about his... constantly follow Scott all day.

"I said, it seems, to me, slightly disturbing that you follow Scott, all day. EVERY. His. Step."

Scott, who until a moment ago was between me and Derek, now backs away.

Give the Alpha the chance to hunt its prey more easily. Perfect.

"I followed him because he's in danger, and I try to protect him."

"I also do what I can to keep safe my friend, but I remain by his side, not like you who follow him in the shadows, in secret. It's creepy."

"You defend Scott. You're just a human, and you can't even protect yourself. In fact, I wonder what you're doing here, exactly."

Derek's words cut me deep into my bones, but he's not wrong. Not only I'm completely human, but I'm also the smallest of them all.

Smaller even than Stiles and Scott.

I found myself in this situation just because my sister is Lydia, and Stiles is in love with her like... always.

I remember the first time he came to me, to ask me for advice on how to conquer my sister.

The next day they had already entangled me in their stories of werewolves, and monsters of various kinds.

And look where I'm finished.

Even my sister ended up being a supernatural creature – I never remember the name – and me? Anything.

Sometimes, I envy the fact of not having any kind of power with which to defend myself, not yet at least.

My sister – and also Stiles – are convinced that I will become like my sister. I don't hope so much.

"I stay with Scott, while you are on the sidelines! I'm the only one here, with him. At least if something happens, I will already be around while we wait for you to show."

If he can cut Derek with his words, then I can do it too; probably, his reaction will be a little different from mine.

In fact, Derek jumps literally towards me, but something blocks him instantly: a knife, the blade pointed at his throat, almost touching it.

"Stay still, wolf." I say, with all the voice left to me. Was he... was he going to attack me? He really would have done it.

Derek looks me in the eye, and he knows. He knows exactly what I'm afraid of; his gaze scares me, like... an animal ready to tear me.

"Careful with that knife. You're trembling like a leaf."

Again, Derek is right.

We should all get along, especially in a dangerous situation like this. And instead we do nothing but fight. Derek does nothing but fight with me.

I feel... humiliated.

I lower the knife, and with it still in my hand, I leave the room, and from Scott's house, not before hearing him speak.

"Derek, you're officially an idiot."

I go into my room, and I still hold the knife as hard as I can.

When I realize that my knuckles have now become white, I let the weapon fall to the ground.

Derek was the first... 'supernatural' person I met, even before Scott. Stiles had warned me that Derek was a little grumpy, but I tried in any way to be kind.

He hasn't made my life easy at all.

Why he must be so... asshole? Especially with me! Why he hates me so much?

The knife is on the floor, and I, too, sitting, my legs pressed tight against my chest.

I look like a child, while I cry for something that really has no value, because it is so, is not it?

I shouldn't be so angry, after all Derek is nobody for me.

A nobody who... was about to hit me.

Because yes, his claws couldn't be seen, but his eyes shone, red and full of rage.

The evening goes quiet, no one calls me, and no one looks for me.

During the night, when I feel the cold even in my bones, I get up from the floor and decide to go to the bedroom; at least I will sleep under the covers, in the heat.

As I walk through the corridor, I see something that makes my blood freeze.

A shadow, just in front of me, a few meters away separates us.

I know it's nobody I know, it's too high to be someone in my family, or Scott. Or even Derek.

I stay still for a few seconds, thinking about what I have to do. I'm alone, and what's more, I realize that the knife remained on the floor in the kitchen.

Looking at the shadow one last time, I turn around to run away, but it's useless. The stranger is already in front of me, his bright eyes staring at me.

They are red.

"Who are you?" I ask, remaining stuck in place.

The stranger – who I can understand, is a man, comes closer to me.

"What do you want?" I ask again, but the man doesn't seem to have the slightest intention of responding.

"Please don't bite me."

I implore him, literally, not to do it; the man holds my arm and tries to drag me out of the house with him.

I rebel, screaming, but nobody hears me. I still ask him what he wants to do with me.

"I don't want to bite you. I want you to scream for me."

All right, what the man told me – before giving me a shot and fainting – left me speechless.

What did he mean, saying he wanted me to scream? Maybe... Lydia.

Now I remember! My sister's "power" has to do with screams. She does it when someone is about to die, or when someone is dead.

The man thinks I'm Lydia.

I suddenly breathe a sigh of relief; at least my sister is safe, even if I'm locked up here, in a... I don't know what place it is.

It looks like a kind of cage, hidden in a cave.

Some steps approach me, and I see the unknown man in front of me; he enters the cage, approaching me.

"The moment has almost arrived. In a few minutes there will be a full moon, and you will have to scream louder than ever."

Even if his words frighten me, I begin to laugh. He needs my sister, and the full moon. When he realizes that he has kidnapped the wrong person, it will be too late.

"Why so happy, my dear?" he asks me, approaching me.

"I'm laughing because you got the wrong girl. I am not a banshee." I say, suddenly reminding myself the name of the creature who is my sister.

"But I don't need a banshee." he tells me, making my smile disappear, "I need someone who has never screamed, and who is not a banshee. Yet."

The few hopes I had on the fact that the stranger couldn't win, have now disappeared.

As a last attempt, I try to escape, but the man can easily catch me, while he says things nonsense.

"I can't become a banshee. I have no idea how I can do it!"

"I know exactly how to do it."

The man shift, his eyes makes me tremble with fear. His claws touch my arms, climbing up to my neck.

I'm shivering.

And suddenly, I feel an incredible pain behind the head, at the base of my neck; the claws are in my skin, and I feel only pain.

I begin to see clouded, in front of me, and the only thing I would like to do right now is... scream.

And I scream, with all the breath I have. One, two, three times. It's not a normal sound that comes out of my lips, but I can't stop.

Then, I start to feel tired, as if I had run for hundreds of kilometers, on a mountain.

I fall to the ground, exhausted.

"Y/n, wake up. You're safe now."

I open my eyes, I'm in the hospital, I immediately understand it from the completely white room. On my side, I see Lydia, sitting on the bed, near me.

"Lydia? What happened?" I ask, worried; after fainting in the cage, I don't remember anything else. Surely because I never woke up since then.

"You're safe Y/n. Only a few broken ribs and... well, the wound behind the neck."

"How long have I slept?"

"Four days."

I sigh. I thought it spent less time; I feel normal.

Have I really changed? I am... a banshee now?

I try to get up a little from the bed, to get more comfortable. when I see Derek, sitting in a chair in the corner of the room; his eyes are closed, he's sleeping.

"What is he doing here?" I ask my sister. I'm still angry with the Alpha, and honestly, it's the last person I'd expected to see here.

"He hasn't moved from here since he found you."

I roll my eyes.

"Did Derek Hale save me? Alleluia."

"Scott told me what happened between you and him. You know he didn't want to hurt you, did he?"

"Honestly, I don't think so. I'm still convinced he would do it."

While I talk to Lydia, I yawn a couple of times. Actually, I'm not sleepy, but I can't help it.

"Rest now. We'll have plenty of time to talk."

After that, Lydia leaves the room.

I close my eyes for a few minutes, but Derek's presence doesn't make me feel calm.

How did he find me? I wonder why he saved me.

Anyway, I can't stay still one minute longer; I need to go to the toilet.

I get up, but with a lot of difficulty. Standing up I can stay, but the ribs hurt me a lot. I fall to the ground, throwing a scream that makes Derek wake up.

Fantastic, good for the better.

"Y/n! Are you okay, did you hurt yourself?"

Derek tries to get close to me, but I stop him right away, raising a hand.

"Don't. Get close."

"Y/n, you can't even walk. I just want to help you."

"I don't need your help, in fact, I don't want your help. I want you to leave now."

It seems I struck deep inside; Derek sighs, almost surrendered to the idea that I don't want him near me.

He feels guilty.

Who cares.

Derek takes a few steps back, while I try to get up. At first it almost seems like I'm going to do it, but then the pain in my abdomen becomes too strong, and I find myself falling back.

Derek's hands rest on my hips, squeezing me; surprisingly, he and his movements are more delicate than ever.

"Hate me as much as you want, but I do not stand on the sidelines while you torture yourself."

I hate it; I hate Derek, and I hate the fact that he's always right.

"May I know why you got out of bed?"

I give up; whatever I say, he will never give up, and I must bitterly admit that without him, I will not be able to take a step.

"I have to pee. Happy?"

After Derek stares at me for a long time I do not know how much, he helps me get up, and we head to the bathroom.

"If you need, call me." He says, although I know he is visibly embarrassed.

"Let's hope not." I reply. Indeed, if I needed his help, I would not even call him in a million years. It would be ...too embarrassing.

Fortunately, I can get out of the bathroom unharmed; as he had said – and I had expected – Derek is standing outside the door, with his arms crossed against his chest. It looks like a bodyguard in front of a private room entrance.

"Are you okay?"

This... approaching, and sudden obsession with knowing if I'm fine, is worse than when he followed Scott all day.

"I'm fine Derek. I believe you can even go away now."

"I will not leave you alone."

I get back to bed, but I'm so bored by his presence that I almost get angry.

"What the hell! What is this obsession for me, all of a sudden? And to think that a few days ago..."

I don't finish the sentence, because I see Derek in front of me that stiffens.

He looks down, but doesn't seem convinced yet to want to leave. He approaches the chair in the corner, and drags it to the bed, then he sits in front of me.

"Do you really think I would have hit you that day?" Derek asks, looking me straight in the eye; his look is different, but I can't understand if it's sadness, or remorse.

"Yes, without a doubt. Stiles... warned me about you, that you were not a sociable kind. But you... you made things so difficult. As much as I wanted to be nice to you, you were always angry. I felt the hatred you feel for me from day one. Your every look, every word of yours to me. So yes, I was sure you would have attacked me that night."

Derek watches me as I speak, and he is not happy at all; I know that he listens to my heart at every heartbeat. He knows that I'm telling the truth.

"I'm sorry you think this, about me."

"It's not my fault."

We remain silent, each of us to ruminate on the conversation we have just had, the mistakes we have made, and the decisions we have made, and we would like to change.

"How did you find me?" I say, having reconsidered the situation.

"Your screams. They brought me to you. Nobody could hear you, except me. It seemed like you said my name."

Now I'm officially scared. I remember exactly the cries, but the Derek's name... I've never said; yet, if he heard it...

"I never said your name. I screamed like crazy because that man hurt me. That's all."

"But..."

"You didn't hear your name, Derek. You couldn't have heard it, because it would mean..."

"That am I going to die? What, now you care if I live or die?"

I don't know what to answer now; Yes, I hate him, but no, I don't want his death.

"Just because you're an asshole, it doesn't mean you have to die."

Derek smiles; all of a sudden, however, I feel a shiver run through my back.

I didn't remember that it was so cold in this room. He realizes it, and getting up, he comes to the bed, and lies next to me.

"What the hell are you doing?"

"You're cold. I can warm you up."

He tries to get closer, but I push him away.

"Fuck you, Derek."

"Fuck, Y/n. You fall and I want to help you, you're cold and I want to help you. But it's not good at all. Don't you think that you're acting like a bitch?"

"Did you hear what I said just now? You are an asshole, always angry with me, and I don't trust you. You're the one who made me like that!"

The head begins to spin, swirling; the situation is worse than I expected. I can't understand. Why do I feel like I've done something wrong? If it's him who's wrong, then why does it seem like I'm the one who has to apologize?

Derek tries to get close to me again, but I walk away.

"Go away, Derek. I want to be alone, please."

He, embittered, takes a few steps back. After that, Derek goes away.

I'm alone in my room, and I continue to think about everything that happened to me. I just wanted to help Scott, since some people want to kill him; instead, I'm the one in the hospital. I am the 'sick' one, the one that seems to have always been wrong lately.

What's happening to me?
