WOLF MOON

——- THE NEXT MORNING, both siblings wake up happy with their talk they had the night before. As Luna heads to her room, she changes into a graphic tee, black skinny leggings with a jean jacket and a Nike's and she curls her hair, and makes sure she's set. Scott, being a protective brother walks pasts his sisters room and he looks at her whether to question the outfit knowing it's the fall season. "Lune? Why you wearing that? Did you know it's cold outside??" Luna wasn't bothered with the questions, Luna loved when Scott has opinions or questions, she knows Scott's just watching out protecting her, and she's thankful for that, she thinks sometimes is too much and tells him to take a chill pill. After 5 mins of arguing, they both walk downstairs to nobody but themselves home. Luna goes to make them both lunches and she sees a sticky from Lindsay "Luna, you have to ride with Scott today, don't get into detention would you? Love, Linds." Don't start it Lindsay. She thought. "Scotty, I'm hanging with you and Stiles' practice again" Luna mumbles to Scott and hands him his sack with her daily note attached, she kisses his cheek as he does the same to hers, she grabs her bike and rides it. She's 15 so she only has a permit, since her mom or Lindsay works she can't drive on her own yet, she'd ask Natalie, Lydia's mom but she's got a lot on her plate. As she rides her bike with her backpack, she makes it to school, parks it in the rack, she sees Jackson as she waves. 5 mins later, she finds Lydia in the lunchroom as she pulls out her math homework and English.

After an hour, the first bell rings, she doesn't ask Scott and questions what happened on their date at Lydia's party. Instead, she heads to class and sits beside Allison, her usual seat and her routine of drawing and using her color pencils. She starts to draw when Coach Finstock asks her a question, without looking up from her sketchbook and feeling eyes, she correctly answers them, and Coach responds, "Male McCall why don't you be more like your sister? She's drawing and she's smart! Keep up the work female McCall!" Coach yelled at Scott, Luna frowned. "Will do Coach!" Scott sarcastically muttered. Stiles and Scott both look at the sketch that Luna is drawing and they stare in awe coloring in the crescent moon she drew the day before. As the bell rings, she closes the book and puts a lock on it. Her drawings are her sacred place to pour her emotions on, she often writes in her diary, when she was 7 and the one year of Taylor's death, her mother have given her a diary to write out everything that she feels, and she did. She has a dozen of them all lined up on her shelf in her room. The only person she'd shown every diary too was Scott, Scott is the only person Luna truly let herself be free, they both seen each other at their happiest or their worst moments. It's a bond they both share and cannot break. For some reason, she added Stiles in to one diary, and that one was the one she first wrote about Taylor, after that diary, he understood her privacy she needed. So he stopped asking for it. Scott did the same, but Luna always gives a diary to Scott for him to read.

School's last bell rung as the boys and Luna go out to the field, she goes up to the bleachers and begin drawing or finish coloring the crescent moon in. The boys see her drawing as they talk about Jackson and lacrosse. While Stiles' sitting on the bench and Scott on the field, Jackson runs into Scott and he falls. Luna feels the impact and holds her shoulder, Stiles notices the commotion and has the confusion face written out. After a few minutes go by, Scott picks up the pace and tramples over the players until it reaches Jackson. Oh no. Scott and Luna both mumble to themselves, almost on cue, knowing both twins are about to loose control but Luna thinks of Scott as her anchor. "Come on Scott, control it. You can do it Scotty." Her words reaches Scott's ears as he controls himself down some, he runs into Jackson's shoulder and falls on impact. Luna and Stiles both run to Scott. As he trying to keep control, Stiles notices the twins going out of control. "Stiles, we can't control it. Even if I'm thinking of an anchor I can't.." Luna tries to run off to the girls locker room, holding herself together as her eyes glow Amber color, she holds her head groaning in pain as the boys find her, Scott already in control tries to help his sister. Scott already found his anchors, both his sister and Allison. Luna still struggling with her control. "Luna, think of me, think of us laughing or watching movies, come on Lune, you can control it." Scott's words finally click into Luna's mind, as she thinking of Scott, she finally calms herself down, as she starts to stand up, she collapses on the floor groaning in pain. She tries to breathe, Scott realizes she's having an asthma attack so he pulls out his inhaler from Stiles and helps her, she finally calms down after 10 more minutes. "It's the anger, it's what's causing you two to shift, Scott, your anger rose Luna to shift too, it's like you two both shift at the same time. Scott, you can't play first line." Stiles told the two siblings, Scott groaned. "Scotty, I know it's hard for you, but please don't play until we control it, I almost lost it. But we need Derek to help us. And you're not first line anymore like Stiles said." Luna has tears brimming in her eyes in Scott's arms, she feels weak and she holds onto his arm for support. Scott nods his head in defeat.

Later on that afternoon, Luna and Scott are both in Scott's room laying on the bed after what happened in the locker room, Lindsay and their mom pop in. "Me and mom got late shift, theirs money on the counter for pizza, you two need to sleep, and Scott, were coming to your first game Saturday." Lindsay tells her younger siblings as they both stare at her and their mom in shock and confuse. "You can't mom." Luna stuttered, but in worry, Scott caught on. "Oh yes I will honey, what's wrong with your eyes? You two look like you haven't slept in days?" Melissa asked her younger children, Scott and Luna frowned, and widened their eyes. Scott and Luna look at each other to figure how to explain to their mom and older sister. Both siblings on cue tell them it's homework and their dad, and they both ask if their mom was on drugs as Lindsay stares at them because they keep speaking in unison. "Scott, Luna, stop speaking at the same time! It's annoying and creepy, you two sound like twins almost. Well I'm gone to work momma, love you!" Lindsay finally leaves and their mom heads out afterwards.

After the two older women leave, Luna heads to her room to change to more comfy clothes, she puts on comfy shorts and a white tank with Scott's lacrosse hoodie on, and puts her hair in a messy bun. Luna sits on Scott's bed doing homework while the two boys talk, as they talk, Luna notices Derek Hale in the bedroom and tells her to be quiet. She nods and waits for the boys to turn, she continues her Trig homework. After a minute, Stiles notices and types in. "There's someone behind you and Luna." As soon as Scott reads and turns around, Derek takes him and smashes against his wall, Luna screams and falls off her bed. Derek mutters a sorry knowing she gets scared easily.
"I saw you on the field, you and Luna shifted in front of them! And if they find out what you are, they find out about me and Luna, and it's not just the hunters after us, it's everyone. And if you want to protect Luna, you can't play Saturday and if you do, I will kill you." After he says that, Derek goes to help Luna up, as he pulls her up, she feels that new feeling of warmth and spark and apologizes again, then he goes out the window.

Later that night after Derek leaves, the two siblings decide to watch a movie and eat pizza and hot fudge brownies. It's always been Scott and Luna every night either in the living room or in Scott's room doing something they both do or what Luna calls it 'bonding time.' It was their special thing they both prefer to do. When Luna struggles or have a bad day, Scott always tries to find a way to cheer his sister up. Their bond is something they both have and its willed for them to be connected. As the night passes, they've watched several movies, eating three things of pizza and ice cream sundaes. It's almost midnight and Luna falls asleep in Scott's arms. Scott carries her upstairs to her room this time and gently lays her down, she clings to his chest not wanting to be alone, so he decides to sleep in her bed that's against her wall. Unknown to the two siblings, the white wolf watches in the distance, always seeking out for the two and always being their protector. "Goodnight my moon, sleep well." Scott mumbles to his baby sister as he falls asleep holding her close to his heart.
