I kept Derek distracted as long as I could, and I had to flirt a little to keep him distracted long enough.

I texted Scott immediately after Derek left to let them know he was leaving and possibly heading to them, i did not expect the text I got in return

we found the other half of the body, well half of a werewolf.

I replied that I needed to see what they were talking about, they sent a picture of the wolf. I almost threw up because it was a wolf, if you google pictures of werewolves the picture they sent me would probably show up.

Stiles drove back and picked me up from my house, then we drove to the police station to convince his dad to come see what they found.

"Sheriff, I'm telling you. This is real." I said to him as i pointed to my phone screen that displayed the picture Scott had sent me of the half of the wolf that they unburied.

It took some convincing but we eventually got him to come to the property and he ended up making an arrest.

Derek got arrested, just like Scott and Stiles wanted. But I was I leaned against Stiles Jeep watching him, handcuffed, getting put into the back of a police car as he glared at me I couldn't help but feel guilty.

I set him up, not really. But I kept him busy while Stiles and Scott framed him practically. They trespassed to get the evidence to get him put in the back of that car..

Apart of me felt bad for betraying him, not even 8 hours ago I was flirting with him. I was supposed to be on his side, but yet I still helped Scott and Stiles turn him in for a murder I'm still not even sure he committed.

He's never gonna forgive me for this.

What if he actually is the murderer? Why has he been so nice to me if he's a murderer? Maybe that's how he gets his victims, he turns them into werewolves and then pretends to want to help them and then kills them.

What if I was he's next victim but then Scott and Stiles swooped in with there ridiculously theories and saved my life?

No, that's impossible. Almost nothing Stiles and Scott comes up with us true. But then I also thought back to every thing Derek said last night,

"You need a pack, Sophie. If you go on without one then that anger, and that urge to kill is just gonna get stronger to the point where you won't be able to control yourself anymore."

"Right now, that power is always there, trying to surface because anytime you get mad or feel the need to protect yourself, you use that power, which isn't good because that's a lot of power for just getting angry over small things."

Would he really lie about all that? He may be a wolf murderer or whatever but he doesn't seem like the type to lie about me being the strongest wolf right now and losing control if I don't get help for it.

He seemed genuinely concerned about that. What if it was all just a ploy to get me on his side? What if I'm not actually a Zeta or whatever and he lied about that.

I am so confused right now, I need to talk to Derek before he goes.

I slowly and as casually as I could walked up to the police car Derek was in, I watched as the police and the investigators took pictures of the hole Scott and Stiles dug up, i quickly opened the door getting into the front passenger seat facing Derek.

He was still handcuffed and there were metal bars keeping the front seats and the back seats separated. I sighed, I didn't really have plan when I decided to come in here.

"Was it all a lie?" He continued to look down at his lap silent, "everything you said last night? Did you actually mean it because if so then what the hell am I supposed to do without you to help me?" He looked up to me, "everything I said is true."

I nodded slowly, "so what am I supposed to do?" He looked back down to his legs going silent again. Great, that sounds like a plan. I sighed looking over to the investigators, whether he did it or not, the body is still on his property so he's going to jail either way.

"Did you do it?" I turned back to him as he stayed silent as he looked up toward the investigators, the silence gave me my answer, "so you did it?" I asked shocked, as he looked to me confused shaking his head "I didn't say that."

"Well you didn't say anything actually." I spoke annoyed, "look I'm sorry for helping Scott and Stiles but you also gotta understand why I did it. I had no clue what to believe, I had them in my ear telling me how bad of a guy you were and then you in the other trying to help me. I was lost and did a stupid thing. But you confessing to me right now could help you out a little here."

He looked at me confused, "how will that help me?" I shrugged, "I'm good friends with the sheriff, maybe I could talk to him, tell him we're sorta friends and that you said you didn't do it and hopefully he'll believe me and let you go."

"So you're just hoping because your brother is friends with his son that it'll get me off Scott free?" I thought for a second before nodding, "yeah pretty much." He shook his head annoyed, "I'd rather rot in a jail cell than take that luck."

I groaned annoyed, "look just let me help you, it's the least I can do for you helping me." He sighed shaking his head "yeah I think I changed my mind on helping you." I looked at him confused shaking my head "what? No, you can't do that. We had a deal." He shrugged looking out the window, "deals off now."

"Derek, I think you out of all people know my fuse has been really tiny lately and you also know you have no chance against me so please stop testing me and just let me help you. I got you into this situation so let me get you out of it." I demanded as he looked at me with a straight face, "why do you care about me so much?"

"I don't care about you, I care about your help because frankly I would like my life to go back to somewhat normality and I can't do that with you locked up for something I know you didn't do." He sighed looking out the window again, "if this doesn't work then just let me go." I nodded as I smiled at him.

Before I could say anything else I was pulled out of the car, I looked up to see Sheriff Stilinski as he slammed the passenger door closed, "hey, Sheriff, what are you doing here?" My voice was casual but he looked at me with a knowing look so I dropped that act. "Sophie, what are you doing here is the better question? I didn't think you were the type to get involved with Stiles and Scott's shenanigans."

I chuckled shrugging, "well I wasn't until... until I was so." I shrugged as he nodded confused, "anyways I was just getting a statement from him and Derek didn't do it." He nodded slowly looking into the back seat of the car at Derek, "is that right?"

He looked back to me as I nodded, "yep. He said this all a big misunderstanding." I placed my hands on my hips nodding trying to seem as casual as possible and sound like I was telling the truth but I was horrible liar, "and you expect me to believe that after you helped them catch him?"

Damn it, they told him I helped. I shook my head shrugging "I just talked to Derek last night," he cut me off with his voice, "While they dug up the body on his property." I shrugged nodding realizing he caught me, "well the conversation did happen to land at the same time they were here digging the body up so..." he nodded slowly, "Sophie, why are you helping him?"

"He needs me. I'm his only friend, in case you haven't realized he's not the most social butterfly." I teased Derek as I knew he was listening from inside the car, Sheriff Stilinski sighed, "look, I still have to take him in for questioning because we found the body on his property." I sighed nodding understanding,

"but you'll hear him out?" I questioned as He nodded, I smiled slightly. "Now get on out of here. Don't you have school?" I nodded quickly, I forgot about school. "Yes, I'm heading there now." I turned and walked back to Stiles Jeep where Scott and him were standing now.

"You're helping Derek?" Scott questioned immediately as I sighed, "we can talk about it later. We have school." I walked to the passenger side door opening it and moving the front seat forward so Scott can get in the back because "I call shotgun." I called out as he walked around to me.

He glared at me as he hopped into the back. I got into the passenger seat the same time Stiles got into the front drive seat. I knew Scott probably listened in on my conversation with Derek in the police car and probably my conversation with Sheriff Stilinski just now.

And I knew they were mad because I'm helping Derek, but Derek also agreed to help me, if I get him out of jail. He said the deals off but does that still stand if i convinced Sheriff Stilinski to hear him out?

He said everything he said was true so my life is only gonna get harder with a pack and without his help to control this power or whatever.

I just hope all this gets resolved before the next full moon so maybe Derek can help me and it be a little smoother than my first.
