Whatever It Takes {Teen Wolf X Reader}

15. Ice Pick

Beacon Hills Highschool

Stilinski finished climbing the wall first, pushing off with his feet and landing on the ground safely.

"Coach, I think there's something wrong with Erica" You bring the situation to his attention.

"Erica ?! Dizzy ? Is it vertigo ?" He asked her as she clings onto the wall.

"Vertigo's a dysfunction of the vestibular system of the inner ear. She's just freaking out" Lydia corrects him snidely.

"Erica ..." Coach attempted to calm Erica down.

"I'm fine" Her voice's shaky and you can easily hear the changes in her breathing pattern.

"Coach, maybe it's not safe. You know, she's epileptic" Allison anxiously waited for Erica to get to the ground safely.

"Why doesn't anyone tell me this stuff ?? Erica, y-you're fine. Just-just kick off from the wall. Th-there's a mat to catch you" Coach reassured her.

"If it helps Erica, jump and I'll catch you. Trust me" You assured the girl.

She inhaled deeply, jumping off the wall and falling into your arms.

"I've got you" You helped her to stand on her own two feet.

"See ? You're fine. You're on the ground. You're all right. Let's go. Shake it off. You're fine" Coach smiled at her softly.

The rest of the class laughs at her, Erica runs out and you start to follow.

"Erica's such a freak" One of the popular guys remarks made you glare at him.

"Fuck off, asshole" You shove him out of your way.

Beacon Hills Memorial Hospital

"Lie still" You stood beside Erica's bed in the hospital.

"Y/N ..." Erica slowly sat upright.

"Side effects may include anxiety, acne, ulcerative colitis -" You read aloud from the sheet of paper.

"Why are you even here ?" Erica looked into your eyes.

"Can't I come to check up on my friend ? You get a warning right before a seizure, right ?" You stepped closer to her.

"It's called an aura. It's-it's like a metallic taste in my mouth" She answers quietly.

"You don't have to lie to me, Erica. What does it really taste like ?" You trace your fingers along her arm.

"... it tastes like blood" She realized how close you were to her body.

"What if I told you ... that all of this could go away ? The side effects, the symptoms ... all of it. And what if all those things not only went away, but everything else got better" You tucked a strand of hair behind Erica's ear.

"How do you do it ?" Erica takes a sharp intake of breathe when you effortlessly pulled her close to you.

"All you have to do is trust me" You head over to the but she grabs your wrist.

"Where are going ?" She grips your wrist tightly, unwilling to release you.

"I can't do it myself. I'll just be outside. I need someone to help ... but you have to be willing" You cupped her cheek.

"I'm more than willing. It really sounds incredible" Erica agreed to Derek biting her.

"You can come in" You called out to him and he entered the room with a smile.

"Hi. I'm Derek" He introduced himself to the teenager.

Beacon Hills Highschool

"Got em. Pick you up right after work tonight, and we'll meet at the rink, cool ?" Stiles places the keys on the table as he takes a seat across from Scott.
