Surprise

“Derek do we need anything for tonight?” Jackson asks.

“Booze.” Derek yells from the kitchen. “But I think Isaac and Liam are going to the store with Tylan right now, you should join them though!”

Booze? Honestly what do they need booze for, it’s not like they can get drunk.

“Derek we’re going!” Isaac yells and puts on his jacket. Jackson walk to the hallways fastly and puts his jacket on too. “Are coming with us? Nice.” Isaac sound genuinely happy, which is weird because it has been awkward between the two of them lately.

“Papa, Dada!” Tylan squeals exited from Liam’s arms as they walk down the stairs.

“Let’s go!” Liam says and walks out of the door.

“Wait Derek you actually got Isaac and Jackson to go out together to the same place?” Danny says surprised.

“Liam and Tylan are there too, but yeah.” Derek’s obviously satisfied.

“It’s awfully quite here.” Malia says and drops a bag full food on the table.

“Wait, why did you bring food? I told Stiles that Isaac and Liam would do the shopping!” Derek is low-key angry, because they may eat a lot but not as much as the food all of them combined will bring and make.

“Like I said, I don’t care, I’m going to cook.” Stiles says grinning as he walks in.

“Liam, will you get the cheese and the other food Derek asked for?” Jackson asks the younger and shorter blonde.

“Yo!” Liam walks away with Tylan, which leaves Jackson alone. Isaac went to the aisle with cola and other drinks like that, which leaves Jackson to get the booze.

Meanwhile at the airport Ethan and Cora wait for the plane with Ethan’s family on it to land.

“I’m really starting to question my choice to ask them to come here.” Ethan is so nervous, how are they going to react, how is he going to react?

“Come on Ethan, it’ll be okay. It’s new year’s eve you’re going to survive.” Cora says and leans against Ethan.

“I would say that’s easy for you to say, but we both know that’s not true.” Cora had lost and found her family again, just like Ethan had. “Life’s really weird.” Ethan smiles and rests his head on top of Cora’s.

They stand like that for a few minutes and talk about random things, and take bets on when Isaac and Jackson will officially start dating. Cora’s convinced they won’t ever date, they’ll just get married and Ethan kind off agrees but is sure they’ll share a new year’s kiss.

“Are you sure it’s going okay?” Danny both screams and laughs. The whole kitchen is filled with smoke.

“Yes it’s all good.” Stiles says. “Malia put down the knifes!”

“All good right?” Danny smiles and walk into the kitchen where Derek lays on the couch. “Hey Hale, where’s your bestie Kira?”

“Kira’s out with Scott, Mason and Corey. They are on a double date.” Derek answer not taking his eyes of the book he’s reading.

“They Perks Of Being A Wallflower? Really Derek, how typical teenage girl of you!” Danny jokes and sits down next to Derek.

“It used to be my favourite book back in high school, well excually used to be Laura’s favourite but I like it a lot.” Derek had read it plenty of times back in high school, but only because Laura had forced him and he had hated it. But a few days ago he found it again and decided to read it again and now that he’s actually taking the time to really read it he finds it a pretty good read.

“Whittemore! Jackson Whittemore!” Jackson stands in the liquor aisle when he hears his name, so he looks up. “Damn it’s really you!” It are some of the jocks Jackson used to be friends with back when he attended BHHS.

“Hey?” Jackson says awkwardly.

“Long time no see.” I’d rather never seen you again, Jackson thinks. “You do remember us right?”

Of course Jackson remembers, how could he forget some of the worse people alive, but great Lacrosse players. “Of course I remember, Kyle, Jacob and Caleb.”

“You giving a party?” Caleb asks looking at the booze in Jackson’s cart.

“A Whittemore party! It has been ages since there’s been an epic party like the one Lydia and you used to throw!” Jacob says exited.

“You better tell me we are invited.” Kyle says.

“Yeah it’s not really a party.” Jackson awkwardly scratches the back of his head. To make things ever worse there comes Isaac with a big grin on his face walking straight to the guys that used to bully him.

“Hey Jax, there you are!” Isaac yells out and throws the drinks in the cart. “Now let’s get Liam with the food and we’re all set for tonight!” Isaac is so excited and it breaks Jacksons heart to see what happened when their former teammates start talking.

“Not a party, really?” Kyle fake laughs. “You seriously invited the loser Lahey but not us?!”

That’s when Isaac turns around and looks at the guys that where talking to Jackson. It are three of the guys that made Isaac’s life even worse than in already was, three of the biggest bullies he had ever had. Isaac just really doesn’t know what to do and the only reaction he knows is to hide, so he does. He didn’t really hide though he just kind of stepped behind Jackson, like a shield. Jackson totally understands, Isaac’s scared even though he’s much stronger than the other guys he’s still scared, because seeing them makes him feel like he’s once again the friendless, lonely loser that used to be Isaac Lahey.

“Can you just not?” Jackson says irritated.

“How cute, Whittemore is now helping orphans.” The way Caleb says it really makes both Jackson and Liam punch him in the face.

“Fuck off dude!” Liam yells looking a lot less badass as he would have wanted because he’s wearing a baby in a baby charier on his chest, but whatever.

“And there we have anger issues Dunbar the captain of the lacrosse team.” Jacob claps fake impressed.

It’s weird how not even to long ago Cora was screaming at Ethan for killing Boyd and now the two of them are sitting at the airport eating ice cream.

“I was pretty convinced you where gay!” The now familiar voice of Ethan’s older brother Alec sound through the airport. “She’s a rather pretty girl though!” Cora might’ve blushed slightly but she wasn’t going to ever admit that.

While is whole family slowly gathers, Ethan stands there awkwardly. He watches them all, closely. Carter and Cole really do look like a younger version of Aiden and him, it creeps him out. Scarlett and Jessica are even more beautiful IRL then they were in the pictures.

The first one to speak up is his mom, Alison. “Ethan, baby you grew up so beautiful!” She says before embracing  him in a hug.

Back at the store things obviously got worse because Caleb, Jacob and Kyle might’ve not know when to shut the fuck up, which might have let to Tylan crying and Liam hitting all of them in the face.

“It was nice talking to you fellas.” Jackson says to the guys that are holding their bleeding noses.

At the register things didn’t go to smooth either, because of course the cashier knew who Jackson was and didn’t take his fake ID.

Luckily the boys got saved by a rather familiar face.

“I’ll pay for it.” Both Isaac and Liam gasp, because they weren’t supposed to ever see her again, right? While Jackson is just really confused, who the hell is the dark skinned beauty with scars on her face and neck?
