The next morning. Peyton wakes up to their alarm going off and shuts
it off. Peyton has a quick shower and dries off. Later on, at the school.
Peyton sees Justin. They growl. Alex notices and steps in front of Peyton.
"Peyton don't. He's not worth getting in trouble for." "Fuck that shit." Peyton
walks past Alex and gets in Justin's face. "Hey you mind?" Peyton shrugs.
"Nope. Got a problem with me you come to me. Don't do it behind my back." Justin
pushes Peyton out of his face. Peyton growls and goes to get back in Justin's
face when Ryan comes over and pushes them. "Walk away Peyton. You're losing
it." Alex comes over. Ryan puts a hand on Alex's chest. "Stay back." Alex looks
confused. Justin laughs. "Look Eric. I told you." Eric looks over. Peyton's
eyes change color and they push Ryan out of the way. Peyton grabs Justin by his
collar and drags him off. "What are you doing?" Peyton throws Justin against
the wall hard. Justin gasps for air because of the impact. "Don't fucking
insult me! Ever." Peyton kicks Justin in the groin and stomach hard. Peyton
leaves after spitting on Justin. Ryan comes running. "What did you do?" "What
he deserved. Come on Alex." Peyton wraps their arm around Alex's shoulder and
the two walk to class. Alex and Peyton sit down and get to work. After they're
done and hand in their work Peyton and Alex look at each other. "What?" Alex
looks at Peyton's hand. "Did you kill him?" Peyton shakes their head. "I wanted
to though." Alex smiles. "My knight." Peyton chuckles. They then sigh. Alex
looks confused. "What's wrong?" "Not right now. Later." Alex nods. "Okay." The bell
rings. The students all leave except Alex and Peyton. "I know you're a hybrid
Peyton and no I'm not scared of you." Peyton nods. "I know. I just." Peyton
sighs and leans in close to Alex so they're almost touching. "I've been
watching you. Ever since you moved here the first time. Your brother never knew
until recently. That's why he doesn't like you around me. He thinks I'm
planning to drag you in and kill you or make you like me so you kill him." Alex
looks shocked. "Really?" Peyton nods. "I don't want that though. I care too
much about you to do that to you." The two walk to Alex's class. Before Alex
walked in Peyton moved a piece of hair out of Alex's face and says in her ear,
"Mi angel
hermoso." Alex looks confused. "What's that mean?" Peyton smiles. "I'll tell
you later." Peyton winks. Alex walks into class and Peyton runs to theirs. After
Peyton finished and handed in their work the teacher lets them leave early so
Peyton goes to Alex's class and watches over her. Alex looks up from her work
and sees Peyton standing outside the door. She smiles. Peyton smiles back. "Hey,
Alex, you have a boyfriend?" "No. Leave me alone. I'm working." Kyle puts his
hand on Alex's shoulder. "Maybe later I can take your mind off school." Alex
shrugs off Kyle's hand and finishes her work and hands it in. Peyton stands on
guard when Kyle comes over to Alex. He puts his hand on Alex's back. "Come on."
Alex takes Kyle's hand off her. "No thanks." Peyton senses Kyle's anger and
goes over to him. Alex turns. "Peyton back up." Kyle smiles. "Yeah Peyton. I'm
just trying to make friends with her." Kyle goes to grab Alex's ass, so Peyton
grabs that hand. Alex puts her hands on Peyton's chest. "Stop. Let go." Alex
feels Peyton growl. Peyton crushes Kyle's hand and then grabs Alex's. They
leave the classroom after Alex grabs her books. Alex puts her books in her
locker. Peyton bangs their head against their locker. "Alex I'm sorry. I know
you can take care of yourself but I just." Peyton sighs and leans in close to
Alex so their faces are almost touching. "I can't help it with you. I feel very
protective of you." Alex smiles and puts her hands on Peyton's chest. She then
moves them up and wraps them around Peyton's neck. Peyton smiles and runs a
finger over Alex's lips. Peyton puts their forehead against Alex's. "Mi angel
hermoso." "What's that mean?" Peyton smiles. "It's my beautiful angel in Spanish."
Alex smiles and places her head on Peyton's shoulder. Peyton kisses Alex's neck
and then pulls away from her when the bell rings. Peyton takes Alex's hand and
intertwines their fingers. Alex smiles. Peyton smiles back. "Come on. Lets go
get some lunch. I'm starving." Alex laughs and the two walk to the cafeteria. Peyton
buys lunch for both themselves and Alex. The two sit. "You know you don't have
to keep buying me food." Peyton shrugs. "I know. I just feel like it." Alex
rubs her nose with Peyton's. Eric looks over. Peyton finishes eating and puts
their arm over Alex's shoulder. Alex puts her hand on Peyton's hand hanging
over her shoulder and intertwines their fingers. Alex leans her head against
Peyton's chest. Peyton smiles at Eric. Alex looks up at Peyton. "Hey, I have a
question." Peyton looks down at Alex. "Shoot." Alex sits up. "Can I kiss you?" Peyton
smiles. "Wherever and whenever you want mi angel hermoso." Alex giggles and
then kisses Peyton softly. Peyton smiles when Alex pulls away. Eric comes over.
"What are you doing with my sister?" Peyton smiles. "Nothing. We just finished
eating." Eric pushes the trays off the table. "Don't bullshit me! I know what
you are and I know what you're planning." Peyton laughs. "Dude, I don't have
any 'plans'. Not ones you're thinking anyway. Now fuck off." Alex smiles and
leans against Peyton. Eric grabs Alex's arm. "Come on." Alex pulls away. "No." Eric
tries again. Peyton grabs his hand. "She said no Eric. Now back off." Eric
pulls away from Peyton and grabs Alex's arm and pulls her to him. They start
walking away. Alex pulls away. Peyton flips the table and grabs Eric by his
throat. "So, you're the type that doesn't take no for an answer, are you? Well
let me show you what I do to those kinds of people." Peyton puts more pressure
around Eric's neck. He chokes. Alex grabs onto Peyton's arm. "Peyton stop.
You're killing him." Peyton bares their teeth and roars in Eric's face. They
then throw him across the room. Alex looks at Peyton shocked. Peyton runs off.
Alex follows. "Peyton wait." Peyton runs to their car and drives home. Once
there Peyton starts throwing stuff around their room. Peyton roars loudly and then hits the ground. They start crying.
"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." Peyton's mother Sarah holds onto them. "It's okay.
It's gonna be okay." Peyton pushes away. "How? How is it? She'll never forgive
me. I didn't mean to lose it like that. He just makes me so angry." Peyton
fists their shirt. Sarah puts her hand on Peyton's face. "She will. I love
you." Peyton hugs their mother gently. "I love you too mama." Sarah pulls away.
"You stay here until you're calm. I'll clean up the mess." Peyton sniffles.
"I'm sorry." Peyton lays down in a ball. Sarah runs her fingers through Peyton's
short hair. "It's okay dear. I can replace them." Peyton falls asleep. Friday
afternoon. Peyton hears people talking upstairs and then footsteps coming down
the stairs. "Is it safe to come in?" Peyton looks up and nods. "Come on over."
Alex comes over and sits on the edge of the bed. Peyton sits up. "So, about the
other day. I'm sorry. I'm so sor." Alex puts up her hand. "I know. Let me say
what I came to say." Peyton nods. They sit and wait patiently. Alex takes a
deep breath and lets it out slowly. "You scared me. What you did scared me."
"I'm sor." "Let me finish." Peyton nods, tears rushing down their face. "You
scared me but not just with your actions. You scared me when you looked at me
with those long razor sharp teeth of yours." Peyton turns their head tears coming
down their face faster now. Alex moves closer and turns Peyton's face toward
her. She wipes the tears away. "That doesn't change how I feel though." Peyton
nods. "Okay. I'm really sorry." Alex chuckles. "I know." Alex comes closer and
lays her head on Peyton's chest. Peyton puts their hand down on Alex's leg.
Alex moves it to her ass cheek. Peyton smiles. Alex smiles back. "You don't
have to do that with me." Peyton nods. "Okay." Alex falls asleep. Peyton is
reading a book when Peyton's mother Sarah comes downstairs. She goes into the
laundry room and starts her laundry. Sarah peaks her head out. "You need
anything washed before I turn on the washer?" Peyton looks up from their book
and smiles and shakes their head. They whisper, "I'm good. Thanks mum." Sarah
gives a thumbs up and then turns on the washer. Sarah then goes upstairs. Alex
stirs. "Who were you talking to?" Peyton smiles down at Alex. "Just my mum. Go
back to sleep." Alex checks her phone. "It's almost 8. We better go." Alex gets
up quickly. Peyton doesn't budge. "I don't want to go now." Alex sits on the
edge of the bed and puts her hair behind her ears. "Come on please? My brother
won't be there. He's under house arrest." Peyton shakes their head. "Please,
please, please. It'll be my first time going to a party." Alex pulls on
Peyton's arm after getting up. "Come on." Peyton sighs and gets up. "Come on."
Alex claps her hands. "The two go upstairs. "Mum I'm going out. I'll be home
before 3." Sarah comes over and kisses Peyton's cheek. "Alright dear. Have fun
but not too much fun." Peyton and Alex leave. At the party. Alex holds onto
Peyton's hand as they push through the crowd. "I'm gonna get a drink. You want
one?" Alex shakes her head. "No thanks." Kara comes over. "Stay with her." Kara
nods. Kara grabs Alex's hand and holds it. Alex looks confused. Kara notices.
"Everyone here will try to get with you if you know what I mean. They're all a
bunch of horndogs but with me here no one will even look twice." "And why is
that?" Kara smiles at Alex. "I'm a very powerful witch and everyone here knows
it. I'm Kara by the way." "Alex." "I know. I used to be friends with your
brother." Alex raises an eyebrow. "What happened?" Kara chuckles. "You saw it
first hand. Eric and his friends are Peyton's rage switch. I got caught in the
middle once." Kara shows off the left side of her face. "From then on I
promised Peyton I'd stay away from him and his friends." Peyton comes back
over. Kara lets go of Alex's hand. "It was nice meeting you Alex." "You as well
Kara." Kara smiles and walks away. Peyton sits down on a recliner and Alex sits
on their lap. Peyton takes a sip of their beer. A guy comes over and sits next
to Peyton but on the couch. "Hey you mind if I borrow your friend for a
minute?" Peyton looks at the guy serious. "I do actually." The guy gets in
Peyton's personal space. Peyton looks at the guy. "I'd back away if I were
you." The guy laughs. "Why?" Peyton smiles at Alex. "You mind holding my beer?"
Alex takes the beer bottle. "Thanks dear." Alex gets up so Peyton could and
then sits back down. Peyton takes off their shirt and puts it on Alex's lap. "Because
I am the alpha of the most feared pack of werewolves in the world." The guy
laughs. "There's no such thing. It's a myth." Peyton raises an eyebrow. "Oh
really? You really think so?" The guy nods. Peyton turns to Alex. "Cover your
ears babe." Alex puts the beer bottle between her legs and covers her ears
tightly. Peyton howls. The guy shrugs. "I can do that too." Peyton shows off
their hands. "Nothing right?" The guy nods. "Right." Peyton lets their claws
extend. The guy looks and shrugs. A group of people come walking into the house
and walk to Peyton. "We heard your call. What's up?" The guy looks scared. "Get
this guy out of my sight. He's starting to piss me off. Don't kill him though."
The group nod and grab the guy and throw him out the house. Peyton takes a swig
of their beer. "Go find Kara." Alex gets up and ties Peyton's shirt around her
waist. "Where you off to?" Peyton chugs the rest of their beer. "It's best you
don't know." Alex nods and goes to find Kara. Peyton goes outside. They rub
their hands together. "I'm so hungry." Peyton bares their teeth and claws. So
do the others. Peyton hands one of their pack members a leg. As they're eating
away. "Holy fuck I haven't had this good of meat in a long time." "Yeah I know.
All we've eating are already dead corpses." Peyton finishes off their section
and goes for another. "Well maybe that'll change." The guys look over at
Peyton. Ryan Miller says, "What you mean?" The others nod. "I have just been
thinkin'. Maybe it's time to start killing off the killers and the rapists.
That's all I'm saying." They all howl and then laugh. Kara comes out with Alex
close behind. Kara hands Peyton a beer. "Thanks." "You better be cleaning this
up." Peyton nods. "Of course." Kara nods and walks back in the house. Alex
doesn't follow though. Instead she comes over and sits on Peyton's lap. Peyton
looks surprised. So do the others. Alex grabs a piece of meat and goes to eat
it. "You know it's not animal meat right?" Alex nods. "I know." She eats the
whole piece of meat. "Mmm. Mmm. Not bad. Tastes just like veal." Peyton smiles.
"My little cannibal." Alex kisses Peyton's cheek and continues to eat with the
group. Once all done Peyton gives all of the scraps to Kara's dog Lucky. Peyton
pets him. "That's a good boy." "Well we're gonna take off. Thanks for dinner Peyton."
Peyton salutes the group. "Anytime my brothers. Ciao." Alex takes a huge gulp
of Peyton's beer. Peyton chuckles. "Easy now." Peyton takes the bottle from
Alex. Alex whines. "But I'm thirsty." "Open." Alex opens her mouth and Peyton
lets some of their blood drip into Alex's mouth after biting their wrist. Alex
wipes her mouth after swallowing. "Wow. Thanks." Peyton smiles. "No problem.
You're sleeping over tonight by the way." Alex nods. "Okay." The two go back
inside and Alex gets drunk. Back at home. Alex gets into Peyton's bed as she's
giggling. Peyton shakes their head. "I'm never letting you drink again." Alex
whines. "But daddy…." Peyton chuckles and gets into bed with Alex. The two go
to sleep.
