For @mspixieriot / @haleboundride who asked for: scott & derek... soulmates au where scott is a kindergarten teacher? (Sorry, it wasn’t a kindergarten teacher because plot ate my brain) ...
“Dad!”
Derek pushed off the the car he’d been leaning against and gave his daughter a smile. “Are you out early, Maya?” he asked.
“Nope, you were daydreaming,” Maya replied, dropping her bag into the car through the window and giving her dad a hug.
“Just remembering.”
“Remembering what?” Maya asked.
“Your first day in kindergarten.” Derek gave her a wink when she groaned. “Let me reminisce!” His precious Maya, unexpected yet completely adored. It had been bad all around, his relationship with Kate Argent. She’d tricked him, painted a matching soulmark on her skin and coerced him into bed, intent on making a match with the powerful Hale family. When Derek had found out, he’d broken it off and Kate hadn’t taken it well. She’d tried to kill him and his entire family, but thankfully had failed.
When Derek had learned she was pregnant … even though he’d only been 16, the Hale family had fought like crazy and had won full and complete custody of Kate’s child. It had been a lesson, juggling raising a child and going to school, leading a life. His whole family had helped, even his Uncle Peter.
“Ms. Hale! Ms. Hale! You left your book in my classroom!”
Derek was jerked out his thoughts when a young man raced up to him and his daughter, waving a book in his hand. He was attractive; tall, with dark eyes, unruly hair and a slightly uneven jaw. His eyes were twinkling and he was grinning; by the lines at the corners of his eyes it looked like the man smiled a lot. Derek felt a … spark. An attraction, something he hadn’t felt in a long time.
“Oh, Mr. McCall, thanks!” Maya said, taking the book from the man. “Mr. McCall, this is my dad, Derek Hale. Dad, this is my biology teacher, Mr. McCall.”
Derek smiled and reached out to shake Scott’s hand. “Pleasure to meet you,” Derek said.
“Likewise.” Scott reached out and shook Derek’s hand.
Derek glanced down at their hands - a bad habit he’d never broken himself of - and froze when he caught sight of the triskele mark on the inside of Scott’s wrist, where the teacher’s shirt had ridden up.
“Woah,” Derek whispered, still staring at the mark, the mark that matched his own. He turned their hands slightly, showing Scott the triskele mark on the inside of his own wrist.
“Y-y-yeah,” Scott replied.
“Awesome,” Maya squealed, bouncing excitedly next to her dad. “Best first day of school ever!”
I did a meme-y thing and tagged people I thought would have really interesting answers. BUT I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND if you don't wanna play! mspixieriot /post/49369874338/its-a-memey-questiony-thing
Only because you tagged me. ;) Though I’ll probably answer some you answered too. I’m not good at following directions. lol. :D
Oooooh I like this Emma icon even better than the last one. Basically, as long as there is Emma I’ll be OH OBVIOUSLY THAT’S KIT which means I think of you every time I read my new comics on Wednesdays.
I like this one much better TBH. I meant to swap out the last one a while ago but I was lazy :P (when it rains, it pours, with me. I either change layout + icon + url + description or nothing at all. layout's next!)
