“Well that’s okay, it’s good to know yourself before you are with someone. So you’ve stayed here, do you work, friends, hobbies?” Talia asked him. It was like starting over with him.

Derek shrugged again, “I just came back. I was out of town for a bit. No, I don’t work. I’m living off the inheritance with Cora. Looking after her, you know.” He glanced out at the fog that was rolling over the Preserve, “It’s still reading.” 

[wiseoldblackwolf]

"I understand. I'm glad you are looking out for your sister. Is she here?" Talia asked as she walked in the woods with Derek. "Reading is a great way to escape and learn."

[wiseoldblackwolf]

Raul curled around Talia, humming softly as he nosed at her neck. 'You smell good wife.'

Talia would smile as she felt him wrap around her body. “Thank you.” She replied softly. “So so you.”

[wiseoldblackwolf]

“I thought so as well, but it proves that they will always need us.” Talia walked over and gave him a quick kiss. “Better get up or I’ll burn the food again.” She chuckled and walked into the kitchen. It only took her a moment to think of something to make.

[eyes-blazing]

‘Don’t burn down my kitchen.’ Raul grumbled as he rolled himself out of bed. ‘I just finished that thing.’

[wiseoldblackwolf]

“It’s just to get you out of bed.” She teased with a smile. “How about coffee first?”

[eyes-blazing]

‘Or my wife could not make me not worry about fire.’ He pulled on sleep pants and meandered to the kitchen. 'Coffee sounds good.’

[wiseoldblackwolf]

"I would never make you worry about that." She said as she walked over your him. Talia gave him a kiss. "Coffee it is." She began to make them some coffee.

[wiseoldblackwolf]

Raul curled around Talia, humming softly as he nosed at her neck. 'You smell good wife.'

Talia would smile as she felt him wrap around her body. “Thank you.” She replied softly. “So so you.”

[wiseoldblackwolf]

“I thought so as well, but it proves that they will always need us.” Talia walked over and gave him a quick kiss. “Better get up or I’ll burn the food again.” She chuckled and walked into the kitchen. It only took her a moment to think of something to make.

[wiseoldblackwolf]

"It's just to get you out of bed." She teased with a smile. "How about coffee first?"

[runninglikehale-deactivated2020]

wiseoldblackwolf​:

“I did indeed.” She chuckled and nodded. Talia still felt before about it even though it wasn’t her fault. “Tell me about yourself, I would like to know about the things I missed.”

Derek shrugged at the question, “Not much to tell.” He glanced at her face before looking back to the path, “I’m not seeing anyone if that’s what you’re really hinting at. Decided to give that a break.” He was trying to keep the tone light even though he just wanted to figure out if this was real or not. If this one good moment would be ripped away from him like everything else had.

[wiseoldblackwolf]

"Well that's okay, it's good to know yourself before you are with someone. So you've stayed here, do you work, friends, hobbies?" Talia asked him. It was like starting over with him.

[runninglikehale-deactivated2020]

wiseoldblackwolf​:

Talia would nod. “Well I still missed it.” She would begin to walk a little hoping that he would show the way.

Derek nodded with a small smile as he began to lead her back to the path, “I mean, you did have a pretty good excuse.” He tried to tease. 

[wiseoldblackwolf]

"I did indeed." She chuckled and nodded. Talia still felt before about it even though it wasn't her fault. "Tell me about yourself, I would like to know about the things I missed."

[runninglikehale-deactivated2020]

wiseoldblackwolf​:

“I’m just admiring you. You remind me so much of your father.” Talia said with a bigger smile. “Ive missed you growing up into a man and I’m very pleased to see how you have turned out.”

“You always said I looked like Dad.” Derek agreed his own small smile curling his lips, “You didn’t miss much. Promise.” 

[wiseoldblackwolf]

Talia would nod. "Well I still missed it." She would begin to walk a little hoping that he would show the way.

[runninglikehale-deactivated2020]

wiseoldblackwolf​:

Talia nodded. “That sounds like a good plan.” She stood back from him to get another look at him.

Derek tilted his head to the side when his mother stepped back to look at him, “What?” his arms crossed his chest as he looked down at the ground, “I mean it’s been 10 years but you know…wasn’t gonna stay scrawny forever.”

[wiseoldblackwolf]

"I'm just admiring you. You remind me so much of your father." Talia said with a bigger smile. "Ive missed you growing up into a man and I'm very pleased to see how you have turned out."

[runninglikehale-deactivated2020]

wiseoldblackwolf​:

She nodded with him. “Yes, I would like to see him.” That was a face Talia could handle to see.

Derek nodded letting out a small sigh, “And then you can come to the loft. It’s not the house but…I dunno it’s home I guess.” 

[wiseoldblackwolf]

Talia nodded. "That sounds like a good plan." She stood back from him to get another look at him.

[runninglikehale-deactivated2020]

wiseoldblackwolf​:

Talia was so proud of him, he had dealt with so much. “Derek let’s leave the woods.’ She said and smiled softly to him.

Derek nodded, his eyes closing, “Yeah. Yeah. We have to find Deaton. Maybe…Maybe he knows what happened.”

[wiseoldblackwolf]

She nodded with him. "Yes, I would like to see him." That was a face Talia could handle to see.

[runninglikehale-deactivated2020]

cagedshewolf​:

“Derek you can’t think back on those things. It is no your fault.” She said softly. “You need to let go of that blame.”

Derek wanted to say more wanted to say more but could only nod. If he let go of that anger what would be his anchor?

[wiseoldblackwolf]

Talia was so proud of him, he had dealt with so much. "Derek let's leave the woods.' She said and smiled softly to him.

[runninglikehale-deactivated2020]

wiseoldblackwolf​:

“I wish I knew.” Talia said taking his face into her hands. “Is it just you? What about the others?” She had no idea what had happened to her other children, she just hoped they had made it.

Derek found himself leaning into her touch, “Cora’s alive…Laura’s gone though. She made it through the fire but…but she was killed by Peter.” He looked away at that. That was another death he held on his shoulders. 

[wiseoldblackwolf]

She was very happy to hear that the others had made it out but peter.... "Why would he do that to her?" Talia looked confused. "I can't see her ever trying to hurt him."

[runninglikehale-deactivated2020]

wiseoldblackwolf​:

She nodded and listened as Derek talked. “Its not your fault.” Talia said keeping him in her arms. “Honey, I couldn’t believe that for a second.”

Derek let out a shaking breath as he pulled away from her, “I still don’t understand…how are you even here?” He searched her face almost desperately looking for answers. 

[wiseoldblackwolf]

"I wish I knew." Talia said taking his face into her hands. "Is it just you? What about the others?" She had no idea what had happened to her other children, she just hoped they had made it.

[runninglikehale-deactivated2020]

wiseoldblackwolf​:

Naturally her arms encircled her boy, it felt so good to hold him. “Derek.” Her voice was soft. “I’m so sorry.” Her hand rubbed his back during the embrace. He was such taller now and it was a little odd to hug him at such an age when the last time she did he was in highschool.

Derek pressed his face into her shoulder, “You were gone and I…I couldn’t tell you how sorry I was.” He whispered, “It was all my fault.” He gripped her tightly afraid for a moment she would push him away. 

[wiseoldblackwolf]

She nodded and listened as Derek talked. "Its not your fault." Talia said keeping him in her arms. "Honey, I couldn't believe that for a second."

[runninglikehale-deactivated2020]

wiseoldblackwolf​:

It was almost instantly that her eyes could see the confusion on Derek’s face. “I have no idea.” She said shaking her head. “The last thing I remember is the fire and then I opened my eyes to this.” Her hand was extended somewhat but she knew that he might not take it. “You are much older now.” Brown eyes scanned his form to see how much he had changed.

When she spoke again, Derek stepped forward. When he took her hand, felt the warmth of her fingers against his the dam broke. Every reservation he had about the sudden resurrection of his mother was hurled to the back of his mind as he wrapped his arms around her. The tears fell silently. He didn’t trust himself to speak or even ask for more. It was his mom. The one person he wished he could’ve turned to when he’d been so utterly lost. 

[wiseoldblackwolf]

wiseoldblackwolf​:

Talia’s last memory was of the terrible pain that covered her skin and then it was gone. There was a light breeze on her face and the scent of damp dirt and grass brought a smile to her face. Her eyes roamed all around her to see a new image than the one she had seen before. “What?” Talia took a few steps around to get her bearings, it didn’t make sense. She suddenly caught a very familiar scent. “Derek?” He was such older now, but he knew her. Those eyes. Talia slowly walked over to him.

Derek took a step back, he sniffed the air and knew it was her. He knew it was Talia. He didn’t know what to tell her, how to greet her. He wanted to wrap his arms around her and hold on as tightly as he dared. He wanted to tell her everything. Derek, however, had come to the realization that things that seemed too good to be true often was, “How—what are you—how did you? You died.” He couldn’t stop the crack in his voice. 

[wiseoldblackwolf]

It was almost instantly that her eyes could see the confusion on Derek's face. "I have no idea." She said shaking her head. "The last thing I remember is the fire and then I opened my eyes to this." Her hand was extended somewhat but she knew that he might not take it. "You are much older now." Brown eyes scanned his form to see how much he had changed.

[runninglikehale-deactivated2020]

Slowly Derek rose from his crouched position. The rouge hunters that chased him this far were sorely disappointed in finding out that he wasn’t as easy to take down as they thought. He pressed a hand to his bleeding side and cursed under his breath. Just because they laid unconscious now, didn’t mean he left unscathed. He stopped himself from kicking one of them when a familiar scent caught his attention. He didn’t know what to feel at first, the burn behind his eyes surprised him as he turned around slowly. His voice wavered as he stared at the woman he thought was long dead, “Mom?”
