Chapter 13

The next day I'm at Derek's house once again. Derek gives me a scowl from across the room and I sigh. This is what I get for trying to talk to him about the Murphy family again. I know he asked me yesterday not to say anything about them anymore, but it's kind of hard when it's the only thing on my mind. He mutes the TV and sits up a little straighter and higher, his Alpha demeanour coming on

"Stiles, I know you want to protect this family, but until we have more information and sound a little less threatening, we are not going up to them" he spoke with authority making me feel like a child "Do you understand?"

"You don't have to talk to me as if I'm a child. Last time I checked you're only three months older than me" I point out gaining another glare from him

"Maybe if you stopped acting like a child I wouldn't have to treat you like one" he counters and it's my turn to be annoyed with him

Is wrong to argue with him I know, but he's just not seeing the bigger picture. If we expose the Murphy's they'll back down, maybe even offer some money. The money really isn't all that important, but if we catch them by the short and curlies they'll definitely leave us alone

"Look babe, all I'm saying is that this could help us a lot" I sigh giving up on trying to convince him

"And I get that, but I can't have you guys endangering yourselves trying to protect-" he starts but I cut him off

"The baby and you" I correct him

"We'll be fine, I promise" he rubs at his stomach giving me a small smile

I move from my spot on the sofa and go to him, giving him a gentle kiss. I sit down by him and he sighs moving to my side melting into my embrace. I kiss his temple and place a gentle hand on his stomach. He smiles and his eyes flutter shut. I rest my head on his and I can feel him drifting off

Peter walks through the front door looking slightly pissed when he spots us. Derek is now snoring, all of his body weight on me. I don't mind though his warmth is comforting

"Please tell me you're not sleeping over" Peter scowls and I glare at him

"I'm not. I was just leaving actually, but then Derek fell asleep on me" I hum looking down at Derek

"Good" Peter huffs making his way towards us "You're lucky you're the father or you'd be dead by now"

He lifts Derek off me gently and I get up from my spot as he lays Derek down. I kiss Derek's forehead and stomach while Peter walks out to get a blanket for him. He murmurs my name in his sleep and I can't help but let a small smile cross my face

I walk out of the house without a word. I get in my Jeep knowing how much Derek is going to hate me after I do what I'm about to do. I start up the Jeep and head to Scott's. The road is vacant and even though it's only the afternoon, everyone should be out, yet no one is around. I would be suspicious of this if I wasn't ready to go and blackmail the Murphy family with my best friend

I pull in Scott's driveway and honk, not in the mood to text him to come outside. Scotts exits his house a fumbling mess and I note that his hair is askew. I'll ask him about that later. He gets in the Jeep but not before giving me a glare

"What's wrong with you?" I pull out of the driveway and he rolls his eyes, huffing

"You scared the crap out of me!" he grumbles "I was taking a nap

~*~

The drive to the Murphy's is short and uneventful, besides Scott muttering under his breath about the lack of sleep he's been getting. I pull into the Murphy's trail, their house being surrounded by the woods. Scott automatically stops complaining and becomes serious. I turn off the ignition to my Jeep and climb out

"Derek's okay with you doing this?" Scott hums as we walk to the front door

"Derek doesn't have to know what we're doing" I give Scott a small smirk

"You're not telling him?" he gapes at me and I shake my head

"WE'RE not telling him" I correct him

"But he'll kill us" he whines

"Again, that's only if he finds out" I point out as knock on the Murphy's front door

" This just doesn't seem right Stiles" he mutters

"Look, Derek needs a break, especially now" I sigh "He can't be stressed throughout the pregnancy and him being the pack Alpha is stressful enough"

"But-" he started

"You know I wouldn't keep this from him if i didn't have to" I interrupt him giving him a look

He sighs "I know"

"Good" I smile "Let's get this over with so we can go home"

The door opens to reveal Colin standing there with an almost bored expression. If I could punch him right now, I would, but I need to just stay civil and talk this out. He sighed and opened the door for us to enter which we did. If I could just wring his throat I would. I give him a fake smile ready to just rip him a new one

"Colin" I say, giving him a once over as he shuts the door behind us

"Stiles" he smirked "I would say I'm surprised but I'm not"

"We just came to talk" Scott gives me a look and I sigh nodding

"So talk" Colin rolls his eyes not moving from his spot

"Fine, we want you to back away from Derek" I cross my arms over my chest fixing him a glare

"No can do bud" he grinned "Do you know how much money I would make for turning him in?"

"You know how quick I can kill-" I hiss but Scott stops me

"What he's trying to say is that Derek isn't some experiment you can just catch and give away" Scott placed his hand on my chest giving me a warning look

"Yeah I know" he shrugged "I just don't care"

"Well I think the town will care about the affair your mother is having with the vet's sister" I spat and he gaped before regaining his composure

"No one will believe your lies" he became defensive

"Wanna bet?" I shot back "I'm the Sheriff's son, they'll automatically believe me"

There was no denying that I was right. All I had to do was tell Lydia's mom about what I 'saw' and she'd tell someone else and then in no tie the entire town would know about Colin and Dmitri's mom's dirty little secret. I lean against the wall and finally it's my turn to smirk at him. He looks as if he's thinking about his predicament

"Fine" he sighs "I'll stay quiet, for now"

"For now?" I stand back up my chest puffing out

"Sooner or later people will notice your freak of a boyfriend" he shrugs

"Derek is not a freak!" I step closer to him

"Hey, chill" Scott moved me away and Colin smirked

"Just wait" he chuckled and opened his front door

Scott drags me out before I can do any damage. My face felt hot, my blood was boiling, and Scott knew that. How dare he call Derek a freak! He's far from that. I huff before getting into my Jeep. Colin watched us from the inside of his house. I flip him off before starting the Jeep and waiting for Scott to buckle up. If only I could just strangle the little jerk. If only
