Title: Making up (part 1)
Scott x Reader (Female)
"Stiles!" -Scott popped up beside Stiles's jeep, startling the brown eyed teen.
"What the fu-Scott?!? I almost had a heart attack." -Stiles spooked.
"I found my mate."
"Oh? That's great, man! Who is it?"
"Y/N."
"Whattareyou waiting for? Ask her out."
"I don't think she'd even consider me anymore."
"Why not?"
"... She confessed to me and asked me out but I turned her down."
"Okay. First of all... When did that happen and why didn't I hear about it?!?" -Stiles couldn't believe it.
"Start of 4th quarter of freshman year. You were sick and absent that day."
Stiles remembers now. The next day he came back to school, Scott was a little awkward around Y/N and vice versa. So that's what happened. Then he remembered catching Scott stare at Y/N from time to time since then. So that was the getting-curious-about-her-then-liking-her-after-observing-and-getting-to-know-her stage of Scott.
"Okay. It's just the start of the school year, so that couldn't be over 6months ago now... Still, Why didn't you tell me?!?"
"I felt really bad. She cried as she walked away. So I didn't wanna tell you that. I'll never hear the end of it, if I did. And besides, that's not the point now! What should I do? I can't just go: 'Hey, Y/N. Nice to see you. I turned you down before, we were classmates in all subjects, I observed you, got to know you, and I like you now, so go out with me.' like that, huh?" -almost needing his inhaler.
"Slow down. Yeah, that's really bad." -Stiles slapped Scott's chest with his backhand, then pointed his lips to the end of the hall.
Y/N walked in with her friends and headed straight to their lockers. She wore her red chuck taylor and skinny jeans, topped with black blouse and a red jacket. Her hair in a messy bun style. Backpack on one shoulder and books held close to her chest.
"I have a plan." -Stiles dragged Scott to walk down the hall with him.
And then nudged Scott towards Y/N as they pass her by, knocking them against each other.
"Wha- Sorry. I'm sorry, Y/N." -Scott held Y/N by her arms, keeping her from falling back to the lockers.
"It's okay." -Y/N didn't even look at Scott and started walking away to her first period class.
"What the fuck, Stiles?!?" -Scott tapped Stiles's shoulder. His face, red from embarrassment and the effect of body contact with his mate.
"How does she smells like, then?" -Stiles not looking away from Y/N.
"What???"
"I mean, chemosignals, Scott."
"Uhm... she was... a little angry... annoyed." -Scott's shoulders slumped.
"Aww, shhh there, there." -Stiles patting Scott's head.
---
The duo spent the day thinking of how Scott could go about Y/N being Scott's mate. How he could possibly approach her knowing the history of Scott turning her down, which basically meant: I don't like you. So I did not go out with you.
"McCall!" -Coach Finstock shouting from the sidelines. "Get your head in the game!!!"
They're at Lacrosse team practice. They just made first string and here he is messing up already.
"Scott! Forget about Y/N for now. We don't want Finstock taking back our first string status." -Stiles bumping their heads together.
"I can't! She's over there! I can't stop noticing her. Her scent."
Y/N was sitting at the bleachers near Scott's goal.
---
Y/N let out a sigh. She wasn't really interested in sports. She's just here to accompany her best friend. Who was cheering for her boyfriend. And also, Scott is in the team. She let out a deeper sigh as she remembered. Of course she remembered the day she asked him out and got turned down. A few months after that, she avoided him. Mainly out of embarrassment, and Scott didn't talk to her either. Which did not seem to bother the boy at all.
She glanced over where Scott is and was a little surprised when she saw him also looking at her direction. She looked away and turned her gaze to her book. Wearing her headphones and blasting loud music through it.
She still has a tiny bit of crush on Scott until now. Sure, he broke her heart back then. You can't force someone to go out with you. Or to return your feelings. Y/N had no other option but to accept. But no matter how she tried to forget Scott, for some supernatural reason or whatever, her feelings always return for Scott. There's just something about Scott. Everytime she starts to move on, something comes from Scott. May it be a change in clothing, or hairstyle, or aura, something. Just, it's like, the universe prevents her from moving on.
And that little bump in the hallway made her notice Scott's changes even more. He was taller and more bulky compared to before. Stronger too, able to hold her steady. Whatever happened?
"Oh shit!" - Stiles shouted.
A teammate shot to the goal but it bounced on the metal framing. The ball is now headed towards Y/N.
"Y/N!!!" -Scott called. But because of the headphones and loud music, Y/N didn't hear him.
Scott sprinted towards her, catching up to the ball. Scott jumped to swat the ball down, going down with it. He landed and slid just before Y/N's feet.
"W-What?!?"-Y/N jerked her headphones off. "Scott?"
"H-Hey." -Scott showed her the ball in his lacrosse stick.
"Oh my God! Y/N, you were almost hit!" -her best friend explained to her.
"Oh... thanks, Scott." -She looked at Scott on the ground.
"Ah-yeah. No problem."
"McCall!!! The world doesn't stop for your ass!"
---
"That's good right?" -Stiles told Scott as they showered after practice. "Y/N's hero~"
"You think?" -Scott asked, hopeful.
"I hope so. But it's a start."
They finished showering, wrapped their towels around their waist and headed back to get dressed. In their team locker, Scott caught someone say Y/N's name.
Stiles was still blabbering about, Scott placed a hand over his mouth. And started focusing on the conversation.
-Yeah, try asking her out- -one of his teammates
-I'm not really sure. Y/N seems uninterested in dating.-
-I'll ask my girlfriend to introduce you two.-
-Okay, then.-
Stiles broke free from Scott's hold. "What was it?"
"Get changed first, we'll talk out of school."
---
"What?!? oh my, that guy is interested in Y/N?" -Stiles drinking from the bottle of Jack Daniels and then passing it over to Scott.
"I don't wanna drink."
"Okay... you know what, you shouldn't think about what other guys are up to. You should think about yourself. How about you ask her out already? Tomorrow?"
"It's not that simple. I broke her heart back then."
"Then tell her why you rejected her then and then say you got to know her better afterwards and started to like her. And you would like to take her out on dates."
"Do you think that'll work?"
"Just be honest. She'll appreciate it. And I know you didn't reject her badly, I mean, you weren't a jerk about, right? Right?"
Scott did not answer.
"Ohmygod! How did you reject her?!?"
"Relax, I wasn't harsh or anything. I just said...Sorry, but I don't have time for dates. I was just starting out at the vet clinic then. And then errands at the hospital for mom."
"Okay. Then just tell her that."
"What if... her reaction is not favorable?"
"Well... you gotta respect that. Can't really blame her, right?"
---
Scott decided to take Stiles's advice. But doing little gestures first before leading onto the asking out part. Scott was early to school every Tuesdays. And sits at the bench where Y/N's school bus always parks. Tuesdays is music club day for Y/N. She'd be carrying a guitar. Scott knows she doesn't leave her guitar in school. As Y/N got out of the bus, and passes Scott, the young werewolf offered to help her carry her guitar.
"Hey, Y/N. Let me help you on that."
"Uhm..." -Y/N was hesitating but she really needs help. She's holding her backpack on one shoulder, a diorama project on one hand and the guitar on the other hand. So she accepted Scott's offer. "Alright. Thank you."
Scott took her backpack and guitar. And then smiled at her. They were walking towards the entrance now and into their first period class. Scott kept helping her with her backpack and guitar until the 3rd period.
"Uhm, I'm okay now, Scott. Thanks." -Her other hand is free now as she was able to drop the diorama in the art club room.
"You sure?" -Scott hesitantly gave the things back.
"Yeah. Thanks."
Both their hands touched a little with the exchange. They have different subjects next, so Y/N started walking to the opposite direction.
"Wait." -Scott stopped her by holding her hand. "Listen. Are you free after school today?"
"W-What?" -Y/N blushed.
"I wanted to talk to you about something." -Scott was a little shy too.
"Uhm... I... I have music club after."
"After that, then?"
"That's... about an hour, Scott."
"It's okay, I'll wait." -Scott still holding her hand.
"Well... okay then."
"Okay. See you later "
---
It was starting to get dark when Y/N left the music club room. Scott was sitting on the floor by the door, leaning on the wall. He immediately stood up as students started exiting the room.
"Hey." -he greeted Y/N.
"Yeah. Thanks for waiting."
They left the school building and started walking. The walk was quiet. Y/N tried not to think about what Scott's gonna tell her. Scott led her to his car, well, his mom's car. He insisted to borrow it today.
"I'll drive you home." -Scott offered.
They got in the car. Scott didn't start the engine immediately. They sat there in silence for a few seconds.
"Uhm... Y/N." - Scott couldn't delay it any longer. "Listen, first of all. I wanted to apologize to you. Back when I turned you down... I was not in a good place that time. I was running hospital errands and I just started at the vet clinic. I didn't really have dating in my priorities back then."
Scott observed Y/N for any reaction. Y/N wasn't looking at him. She fixed her gaze on the dashboard.
"I'm sorry, Y/N." -Scott continued. Y/N just nodded. Doesn't really know what to do. "Uhm... after that... things settled down a bit for me. And I... I got to know you. I had a change... I started to like you. Really like you... please, Y/N, look at me."
Y/N took a breath, blinking trying not to cry. Scott took her hand. That made her look at Scott.
"I like you. Will you go out with me?"
"Uhm... Scott... I... want to think about it."
Scott's heart dropped. "Y-Yeah. Of course. I understand."
Y/N pulled her hand out of Scott's gently. Scott then turned on the car engine and drove Y/N home.
On the way to her home, Y/N was already thinking. Over and over. Of course she wanted to go out with Scott. She still likes him. But she was hurt. She wanted Scott to make up for it. She will give her answer come Friday.
"Uhm, here we are." - Scott stopped in front of Y/N's house. He assisted her until her doorstep.
"Thanks, Scott." -Y/N opened the door and a little boy ran up to her.
"Who's that?" -the boy asked.
"His name is Scott. Scott, this is my younger brother."
"Hi."
"This is Scott?!?... hmph!" -the boy punched Scott's thigh.
"Hey! Stop it. That's not nice." -Y/N.
Scott was taken aback.
"He made you really sad! I hate him!" -the boy punched Scott's thighs again and then ran back in the house.
"S-Sorry about that." -Y/N embarrassed.
"It's okay. I understand. I probably deserve that."
They stared at each other for a few moments. Scott wanted to kiss Y/N right then and there. But he can't. He shouldn't.
"Friday. Give me until Friday to to think about it."
