So Many Questions [Amalthia, Derek, Open]

[Peter Hale]

I created the Sound of Madness

So many things Peter had to worry about, though he had to admit that he wasn't expecting a child in his life--especially this quickly. Peter longued on the couch that was currently located in the living room area of his loft, he had asked Amalthia to meet him here--for well dinner, and another talk.

He closed his eyes trying to remember all the things that had lead to this.

He remembered the drinks and he remembered the bar, and he especially the night with Amalthia--oh how he remembered that night. Now though it was a distant memory to the fact that he was going to be a father.

How was he going to even explain that to Derek?

Would he be okay with it? Or would he try to kill Peter like he did before?

Would he be a good father for the child? Or would he fail at that like he did as an Uncle, and Alpha?

So many damn questions to answer, but they had no answers to them--well not yet anyways. Peter felt so out of place in his mind that he took a deep breath that didn't seem to help him. He grumbled to himself as he pressed the palms of his hands into his closed eyes.

"Why does having to be a parent so damn hard to figure out?!

He was alone in his place--so he felt very silly yelling to no one in the room, and as he was about to get up to get everything ready--he heard a knock. He raised a brow at the sudden knocking--it was unexpected--did Amalthia come early?

The knocking was getting irritating now as he huffed a sigh going to answer the door, "yes yes Amalthia--I hear you. Alright, just give me a minute" He felt irritated, more to himself then the person knocking at the door as he swung it open glaring.

time for some drama~ Derek or amal whichever one who wants to post next haha/tag- Amalthia /Derek/open

Amalthia made sure she had the items she needed tucked away in her purse, and slipped it up over her shoulder before surveying her apartment once more. After a few moments she nodded to herself and left the apartment, murmuring a few words under her breath to activate the spell to ensure that no one but herself or Peter could get in, and left the complex. She got into her car and started the drive to Peter’s apartment. He wasn’t too far from where she lived, but far enough that if anything did happen and either one of their places wasn’t safe anymore, they were far enough away that it wouldn’t be too easy to find the other place.

That was definitely a bonus. After the drive, Amalthia parked not too far away and got out, locking her car up before heading down the sidewalk that led to his apartment building, following the steps until she was on the right floor. She paused just outside of the stairwell and hesitated. He’d said he wanted to meet her, so she knew he wanted to talk about something, she just wondered at what that something was. The woman bit her lip lightly, before looking down at the floor and then back up, walking through the hall to get to the right apartment. She looked down at the address in her hand and then at the door before nodding to herself and knocking.

Maybe because she was lost in thought, or just not even sure what on earth she was doing or what she should be doing, but she kept knocking right up until the door opened to reveal Peter. He was glaring as he swung it open, and she blushed when she realized what she’d been doing before shaking her head to get her bearings and smiled faintly. ”Hey. Sorry about that. I uh…I’m not used to things like this.” She said, gesturing to him, his apartment, everything really. ”How’re you doing?” She asked with a faint smile, before her eyes glimmered with amusement. ”Been causing trouble as of late?” She teased, hoping to get the tension lessened.

As soon as the door was open and he was staring at Amalthia--he seem to actually calm down a bit looking away, "I'm not mad at you Amalthia--I apologize if I sounded rude." He moved aside to let her through, "come on in."

Peter waited for her to come in before closing the door behind him so that no one would unexpected walk by an open door. It was just something about leaving in an apartment building that gave him ideas that someone would literally come and try to steal something.

”Hey. Sorry about that. I uh…I’m not used to things like this.”

Peter waved the apology off, "no no--that was completely my fault--I shouldn't have been so rude." He looked away for a moment thinking to himself, shouldn't be worrying myself either.... Maybe.....

Peter looked at her again, but this time he smiled--though it seem to be forced than an actual smile. He shook his head looking away again, "I'm just over thinking some things."

”How’re you doing?”

Peter smiled another forced smile, "still trying to come to terms I'll be a father." It wasn't that he didn't want kids--he wasn't exactly he was sure if he was completely ready--if he failed as an Alpha, and Uncle.....

Would that also mean that he would fail for the child as well? The worst thought would be Derek's reaction to all of this.

That worry was clear on his face, even when he knew he didn't know he was showing it. He shook his head, "I'm not trying to say that I don't want a child--I just--I'm not sure how I'll explain this to Derek yet either."

”Been causing trouble as of late?”

That brought a real smile to his lips, "oh come now, does this look like a face that could get in trouble?" He pointed to himself as he did the most innocent face as possible, but knew she wouldn't buy it.

He shook his head, "no I have not gotten into any trouble--I should be asking you that though.... Have you gotten yourself in trouble lately?"

Amalthia you can keep posting until derek wants to appear lol/tag- Amalthia /Derek/open

Amalthia saw him calm as he looked away, and she relaxed more when he calmed. "I'm not mad at you Amalthia--I apologize if I sounded rude." He said, moving aside so she could head inside his apartment. "Come on in." She smiled faintly and stepped up beside him, kissing his cheek lightly before moving in and out of the way, looking around with a faint smile. ”You weren’t rude, Peter. You looked stressed.” She said, looking back at him as he closed the door.

She chuckled quietly when he waved the apology off. "No, no--that was completely my fault--I shouldn't have been so rude." He said and she shook her head, smiling wryly. ”If anything that was my fault, don’t worry about it.” She said even as he forced a smile, and her smile faded slightly. "I'm just over thinking some things." He smiled that same smile again. "Still trying to come to terms I'll be a father." The rest of her smile dropped away as she looked up at him, her gaze subdued. ”If you’re having second thoughts…you don’t have to be a part of our child’s life if you don’t want to be.” She said quietly, watching him.

Amal saw the worry on his features before he shook his head, and she watched carefully. "I'm not trying to say that I don't want a child--I just--I'm not sure how I'll explain this to Derek yet either." He said, and she looked down for a moment before shrugging lightly. ”Time will tell, sugar, you can’t ask for more.” She said quietly before she saw the real smile on his lips and her own expression brightened. "Oh come now, does this look like a face that could get in trouble?" He said, pointing to his own face in indication, and she laughed, eyes bright with amusement.

”Do you want me to answer that?” She teased. "No I have not gotten into any trouble--I should be asking you that though.... Have you gotten yourself in trouble lately?" He said with a shake of his head. ”Oh, you know me, I can’t seem to avoid trouble. But I’ve been a lot more careful than before.” Amalthia said carefully, her gaze showing just how true that was.

”You weren’t rude, Peter. You looked stressed.”

Peter looked at her for a moment, "perhaps you're right, maybe I am stressed." He needed something to do at this moment though, something to keep his mind off of the questions in his head.

”If anything that was my fault, don’t worry about it.”

Peter shook his head as he sighed, "still doesn't excuse myself from it."

”If you’re having second thoughts…you don’t have to be a part of our child’s life if you don’t want to be.”

Peter looked at her this time a bit confused until he remembered his words, "no no--that's not what I meant at all Amalthia."

”Time will tell, sugar, you can’t ask for more.”

Peter rolled his eyes at that comment, "knowing how Derek is--he might throw me into another staircase again--probably under a second this time."

Peter looked Amalthia in the eye, "and that was when I wanted to just talk to him--believe me when I say he's quick to anger than anyone else I know."

”Do you want me to answer that?”

Peter's smile was back again, "no--not really."

”Oh, you know me, I can’t seem to avoid trouble. But I’ve been a lot more careful than before.”

Peter nodded, "good as long as you're both safe--that'll be an ease for my mind."

Amalthia kept her gaze on his as best she could. "Perhaps you're right, maybe I am stressed." He admitted, and she laughed softly, though in no way at him. ”Not perhaps, not maybe, I know you are. I can see it, Peter, so don’t go trying to make it seem better.” She said with a fond smile. "Still doesn't excuse myself from it." He said with a shake of his head and a sigh. ”Hey, yes it does, I say so. And what a pregnant lady says, goes, right?” She asked, partly teasing, eyes brightening.

The woman saw his confusion when she spoke before he seemed to remember. "No, no--that's not what I meant at all Amalthia." He said before rolling his eyes. "Knowing how Derek is--he might throw me into another staircase again--probably under a second this time." He added, and Amalthia frowned. ”Well, no matter what happens, he’s not going to hurt you, because I won’t have you getting hurt. Fast healing aside.” She said with a faint smile.

She met his gaze after a moment. "And that was when I wanted to just talk to him--believe me when I say he's quick to anger than anyone else I know." He said before his smile was back again, and she felt her own expression lighten. "No--not really." He nodded before adding, "Good as long as you're both safe--that'll be an ease for my mind." He said and she smiled, nodding. ”We’re as safe as is possible right now, especially now that we have you.” Amalthia said with a smile, before looking around some more. ”The place looks great. Suits you.” She commented sincerely with a bright smile, laughing softly.

”Not perhaps, not maybe, I know you are. I can see it, Peter, so don’t go trying to make it seem better.”

Peter chuckled, "alright then--I suppose you are right one that one." He shook his head as he went through the kitchen drawers trying to find something, "you probably will be hearing that line very often considering it's you."

He smiled again as he pulled out some take-out menus, "take out? Much easier, and quicker in my opinion, and I rather not have a pregnant woman cooking for me." He thought that over for a moment.

"It's just better if you relax for the child's sake, and I don't have the right mind to cook--if I space out again--I might burn down the loft."

”Hey, yes it does, I say so. And what a pregnant lady says, goes, right?”

Peter chuckled again, "I think the better term is when--no never mind not placing age in this--for all I know your hormones will give you an idea to turn me into a cat." He smiled remembering that recent conversation they had, "I really don't want to piss off a pregnant witch."

”Well, no matter what happens, he’s not going to hurt you, because I won’t have you getting hurt. Fast healing aside.”

Peter smiled, "well now, suddenly I've become the princess, and you my prince?" He laughed a laugh that he always thought dead around those of his past, but around Amalthia--it was like the old Peter was reborn again.

He shook his head covering his forehead with his hand, "Thia--you truly know how to tame the beast in me--I can't even remember the last time I laughed like that."

”We’re as safe as is possible right now, especially now that we have you.”

Peter smiled as he walked over to her, standing next to her as he placed a kiss on her lips, "if anyone so much touches you or that child--they'll have hell to pay." His smile still on as he swept an arm across the room, "go ahead and sit."

”The place looks great. Suits you.”

Peter chuckled, "yes it does suit someone of my tastes--though unfortunately this place only has one room." He folded his arms, "I'll have to be looking for awhile, but I'm sure I can find something better to fit two more people."

He looked at her, "that is if you want to."

completely agree their conversations tend to  lol/tag- Amalthia , Derek & open

Amalthia smiled when Peter chuckled. "Alright then--I suppose you are right one that one." He shook his head as he went through the kitchen drawers, and she leaned against the counter watching him. ”Still with the doubting.” She said with a warm smile, her eyes bright with amusement. "You probably will be hearing that line very often considering it's you." He said and she chuckled as he smiled and pulled out some take-out menus. "Take out? Much easier, and quicker in my opinion, and I rather not have a pregnant woman cooking for me." He seemed to think for a moment, even as she raised a brow at him, a hand going to her hip.

”Considering it’s me.” She agreed before nodding. ”Takeout sounds perfect. I didn’t really want to cook anyhow.” Amal said, wrinkling her nose slightly before grinning. "It's just better if you relax for the child's sake, and I don't have the right mind to cook--if I space out again--I might burn down the loft." He chuckled again and she laughed. ”Nicely done, mister. Covering your bases.” She teased. "I think the better term is when--no never mind not placing age in this--for all I know your hormones will give you an idea to turn me into a cat." He smiled, and she did as well, remembering just as he was. "I really don't want to piss off a pregnant witch." He added, and Amalthia laughed again, eyes bright.

”Oh, I’m still thinking about it. And you really are smarter than you look.” She teased, and her tone showed that she didn’t mean any of it. Peter smiled. "Well now, suddenly I've become the princess, and you my prince?" He said with a laugh that was as genuine as it came, and she felt lucky to have been the one to get that rare laugh. ”You bet, sugar. I certainly do look the part, right?” Amalthia answered teasingly, one hand going to the slight bump of her growing stomach. "Thia--you truly know how to tame the beast in me--I can't even remember the last time I laughed like that." Peter said as he shook his head and covered his forehead with his hand.

”I’m glad that I got you to laugh. It means a lot that I can. And I plan on hearing it again. It’s nice.” She said fondly as he smiled again and walked over to her. She tipped her head back as he placed a kiss on her lips, and she smiled softly as she kissed him back. "If anyone so much touches you or that child--they'll have hell to pay." He said, even as she nodded and smiled in satisfaction. He swept an arm across the room. "Go ahead and sit." He said with a chuckle, even as she moved to sit on the couch. "Yes it does suit someone of my tastes--though unfortunately this place only has one room."

Peter folded his arms, "I'll have to be looking for a while, but I'm sure I can find something better to fit two more people." He said as he looked towards her, "That is if you want to." He added and her eyes widened with delighted surprise. ”You mean it? That would be…great. I’d really like that. Maybe…maybe then I’d just stay with you if that happens, makes it easier for the both of us, right?” Amalthia added tentatively, genuine happiness making her smile brightly.

[Derek Hale]

After the last meeting with Peter at the house, it seemed to ruffle feathers so now he was checking up on Peter tonight at his own apartment. It was an unexpected visit and Derek wasn’t one to call before he showed up especially since he doesn’t trust Peter. Derek still had a feeling he was playing at something and wanted to know what it was. So surprised visits were on the agenda after everything that was going on. Perhaps if Peter needed him, they could meet at the loft Derek had for training purposes and to clear his head and think that way it does not sit wrongly with his beta’s since they all, but a certain few didn’t trust the man. Can he blame them? Hell, no he didn’t trust him and they are blood.

Derek had pulled up in front of Peters building. He knew it was his he could smell him from a mile away. He sat there for a few moments but decided to sit there longer when he realized Peter wasn’t alone, and decided to ease drop on his uncle’s conversation. Sure, he should give the man his privacy, but pffftt forget that. Derek slowly got out of the car and shut the door listening in being careful to tune out anyone else in the surrounding area to listen in on his conversation with some woman. Derek arched a brow and listened some more locking the cars door.

He had moved closer, and that is when he heard the word PREGNANT and his eyes went wide with shock, and opened his mouth and seriously wanted to hit his head on the wall… He began to scowl and thought ‘please don’t let it be Peters. Please tell me I am listening in on the WRONG conversation.’ Hell Peter had given Tanner a hard time when they found out this girl he had a one-night stand with was pregnant and could be carrying one of their kind.

‘ Stupid uncle can’t keep it in his pants nor find protection.’ shaking his head he walked closer to Peter’s door and could hear him and the girl talk about things and how he didn’t know how to explain this to him. Of course, Peter should have known the longer you let things go the more explosive they will be. Oh hell he did not want to throw him into the staircase again he wanted to do a lot worse. Anger would probably be radiating off him like waves. How dare Peter try to keep something like this from him? Derek feared knowing how long he has been keeping this secret. Derek wanted to rip out his throat again.

Derek found it funny the girl thought she wouldn’t let him hurt Peter. She had to sleep sometime witch or not. Lots of rest is required of a pregnant woman and Derek was counting on her powers not being up to par with the baby sucking her energy and all. He has read it in a book that sometimes babies can disrupt their magic. He was hoping it was and this is between him and Peter..

Derek had thought and It's family business and until they are married she should butt out of it and let them do things their way and sometime's fight is how wolves solves things and she will learn that in due time. If she can't handle it she should have kept her legs closed. Simple as that. It is so how Derek seen it. There was kissing and Derek had all had to fight himself to keep his lunch down. The idea of his uncle kissing or having sex period made him want to scrub his brain and hearing with bleach. It wasn’t until the started talking about a bigger place that Derek decided to knock on the door.

Glaring at it as if it would make whatever he heard untrue and that perhaps his mind was playing tricks on him. One thing about being an Alpha you can mask your scent so Peter defiantly wouldn’t know it was him nor expect him coming over. Surprise so there was no knowing about how much of the conversation Derek had over heard. He hoped to god he wouldn’t come home and one of the other hormonal teens had the same news he’d want to shoot himself and he doesn’t have a gun, but he knows someone who does…

Derek waited for the door to open and was getting all the more agitated as he waited for someone to get it. All his above thoughts and side remarks swimming in his head. He really wondered how his mother dealt with things such as this. Being an Alpha was hard work, but here he was going to pretend at first he heard none of the conversation at all and found it amusing his uncle was the princess of the duo, but still the itching twitch of anger stopped him form laughing at that. He wanted to see Peter twitch about how much he possibly over heard. He Knocked again just to make sure it was heard.


Notes:  There you go hope it works HAHA and if Peter let's Amy not let them work things out there way then well he'd think his uncle is whipped and wears the skirt and really is the princess... and seriously will lose his manly rep and will NEVER live it down.... Derek shouldn't be allowed to think while ease dropping haha this came out massive.

”Still with the doubting.”

Peter smiled at her, as he he simple shrugged at the comment, "can you really blame a man for being so doubtful? It's not easy trying to see things in an another light Amalthia." He shook his head, "it's very hard."

”Considering it’s me.” She agreed before nodding. ”Takeout sounds perfect. I didn’t really want to cook anyhow.”

Peter smirked, "yes indeed considering it is you." His smile only seem to widen at her next comment, "good, so then now the biggest choice to make right now is--what take out menu?"

”Nicely done, mister. Covering your bases.”

Peter chuckled, "I've perfected the art of covering my bases."

”Oh, I’m still thinking about it. And you really are smarter than you look.”

Peter raised a brow with a sly smirk on his face, "now do you mind tell that to my nephew? He might be more incline to listen to you when you say it instead of me." He inclined into the couch looking at her, "but then I'll have to worry about him taking all your time from me if he listens to you more."

”You bet, sugar. I certainly do look the part, right?”

Peter laughed again, "I certainly hope that won't last for long." His smile yet again sincere, "I like being your prince in shinning armor--that's how we first met was it not?"

"You waiting for your prince?" He chuckled again waving it off, "ah good times good times."

”I’m glad that I got you to laugh. It means a lot that I can. And I plan on hearing it again. It’s nice.”

Peter smiled as he took her hand kissing the knuckle before her lips again, "for you--I'll laugh and smile whenever you want."

”You mean it? That would be…great. I’d really like that. Maybe…maybe then I’d just stay with you if that happens, makes it easier for the both of us, right?”

Peter shrugged, "no I was just using it as way to get you into my bed later one once you had the child--oh I'm kidding." He looked at her trying to contain the laugh he was hiding before, "you didn't actually believe me did you?"

Before he could get an answer and possibly a smack or two from her, he heard knocking at the door. It was strange considering he was only expecting Amalthia tonight, and he didn't sense anyone either. His brows furrowed as he quickly unwrapped himself from Amalthia heading to the door.

He placed on that same mask that he placed on for everyone else that wasn't Amalthia, the same mask he used to hide his feelings from the pack--from Derek. It was how he was able to keep himself from being discovered as feeling weak.

It never failed him--until now.

As soon as he opened the door his eyes widen as his mouth seem to be at a loss for words, he had expected it to be one of those annoying salesmen, but standing before him--was his nephew. For a few seconds his mind failed him, but then it caved into him as he placed his head hanging low.

"Shit--speaking of the devil himself...."

ooh he's says it is on/tag- Amalthia , Derek & open
