The Other Hale » McCall [1] {ON HOLD}

S E V E N

Seven † Dates.

Henley has never really been on a proper date, nor does she think she ever will. As sad as that sounds.

Scott, Allison, Lydia, and Jackson were apparently gonna 'hang out' at the bowling alley. Henley was hurt for some reason when she heard about this from stiles. She didn't know why so as usual she ignored it.

Now here she is in stiles room, laying on his bed. She could've been with Derek but it had seemed that he didn't want her around him right now.

"Why are you so quiet?" Stiles asked the brunette on his bed from where he was sitting on his desk chair

"There's nothing to speak about" Henley replied bluntly sitting up

"Well let's talk about how you looked hurt when I told you Scott was gonna go on a group date that involved him and Allison" stiles went and sat beside her "we both know you dont swing for the other team so you dont care that Lydia was going on a date" he told her "you also dont like Jackson so"

"You dont know that, stilinski" Henley interrupted him an amused smile on her face

Stiles rolled his eyes at her "you dont like Jackson, I've seen you punch him in the gut before"

"I wasn't talking about Jackson"

"Oh"

There was an awkward silence, Henley was trying to hold in her laughter until stiles asked the question she knew was coming

"So you like Lydia?" He asked averting her gaze "what? now I gotta beat Henley for Lydia's attention too?" He muttered thinking she wouldn't hear him, he was wrong.

"One. No I dont like Lydia. I was kidding, and two. Im sure Lydia will come around stilinski" she told the hazel eyed boy

"Thanks" he smiled, he didn't think so though

"You know" Henley started speaking again as she stood up from the bed and walked over to the open door of stiles room "I could help you forget about Lydia" she smirked as she slowly closed the door, as she did this she heard stiles heart beat pick up

"Wha-what do you mean?" Stiles asked out

"What I mean is that maybe you and I can try this out" she told him, her hands motioning to him and her. Of course Henley was only joking, she thought stiles would've catched on. Nope, he didn't.

Stiles face turned red, Henley tried not to laugh.

"U-um listen Henley" stiles started off "You're a beautiful girl but I see you as um" he stopped trying to think of what to say next "as a sister, yeah I see you as a sister" he muttered

"Darn it" Henley chuckled "and here I was thinking that you were actually in love with me" she let out a dramatic sigh

"Wait you were-" stiles got caught off by Henley's loud laughter

"Yes, yes I was kidding" she laughed

Stiles glared at her "real nice Hale, real nice"

"Oh dont be such a baby" she grinned at him, her laughter dying down "I do think you are a great guy and that any girl would be lucky to have you though" she went and sat next to him, his eyes inspecting her for any sign saying that she's joking yet again "Lydia's losing out on a lot for not being with you" she stopped wondering if he would feel comfortable with what she was going to say next, he did say he saw her as a sister after all

"You a great catch, little brother" she smiled as she saw his face light up at her calling him 'brother'

"Thanks, sis" he smiled at her, emphasizing on the word sis like she had with brother. his face turning into a frown a few seconds after "wait did you call me little brother?" He asked

"Yup" Henley responded popping the 'p' at the end "why?"

"Because we're the same age" stiles told her

"Yes but your two weeks younger than me according to our birthdays" she grinned cheekly at him standing up and making her way over to the door again, if stiles hadn't told her his birthday she would've just said 'bro' and quite frankly that sounds weird and makes Henley feel like some frat boy and it also doesn't hold as much sentimental value as 'little brother' does

"What?! Are you kidding me? That does not count!" Stiles told her squinting his eyes at her

"Yes, yes it does" she smiled and opened the door "you're younger there for you are my little brother"

"I hate you, I hate you so much" stiles grumbled

"I know" she chuckled "gotta go stilinski, see ya later" she waved at him as she shut the door leaving an amused yet irritated stiles behind

Henley was glad she Derek had made her go to school to keep an eye on the two boys. Because of that she had met stiles, she really did consider him as a brother, Scott on the other hand. He was a whole other story

Derek hadn't spoken to Henley since he got back from wherever he went. In all honesty it kind of freaked her out a bit, even if Derek was in the grumpiest of moods if he saw her he would smile and say a simple 'hi'

Not this time though, no instead he ignored her as if she were the plague.

"I love my big brother" Henley spoke sarcastically, she knew Derek could hear her he was upstairs doing god knows what and she was downstairs by the door"always being there at home, never leaving me without telling me where he was going" she was getting angrier now

She felt her eyes flash their vibrant red, she needed to get out of here before she hurt herself or worse, she could hurt Derek.

She went and ran out of the house into the woods, she kept running dodging low tree branches, making sure she didn't trip on anything. This went on for a good 15 minutes until she came to a stop.

She let out a long breath, her eyes were back to their normal color. "Someone shoot me" she muttered

"Okay" Henley turned her head so fast she swore she had gotten whiplash, her face shifting slightly. Her fangs and eyes changing

"Jesus Derek" she sighed and shifted back "dont do that again"

"Sorry" he told her

"It's fine, dont worry about it" she waved him off, she was still upset with him

"You know peter survived the fire right?" He spoke to her softly "he's in a coma"

"So he's basically dead" she glared at him

"Well with that attitude yes"

"Screw off Derek"

"Okay but you're coming with me" he told his sister

"No let me be here out in the open, let me vulnerable" she sighed out sarcastically

"Funny, now c'mon let's go" Derek spoke as he moved forward and threw her over his shoulder

"Dude that hurt" Henley groaned

"I don't care"

"Yeah, well obviously"

"Shut up before I drop you"

"Great big brother you are, Derek"
