Chapter 39: Ch.38 Driving Naked.
"You two do realize that you are naked, right?" I heard mom's voice and turned to look. She was looking at us through the rearview mirror. I bobbed my head and removed myself from Malia.
She wasn't that happy with it, and it showed on her face. Mom chuckled, and I cleared my throat and got the bag out of the back, and I opened it and took out two shorts and t-shirts. I handed a pair to Malia and said, "Wear these for now…"
She took them and I wore the t-shirt and shorts, and I asked mom, "What are we going to do now?"
She hummed and said, "Well, first we are going home, and secondly I want to relax with a bubble bath and a bottle of chardonnay"
I looked at her and said, "That's good and all, but I meant like what are we doing with Malia…"
Malia said, "I thought I was staying with you?"
I looked behind, and I saw her wearing the t-shirt. It was way too big for her. I nodded and said, "Well, yeah, but what are we going to say to others like who you are and stuff?"
Mom nodded and said, "Well, we will think of it later, right now. I am too tired to think of anything."
I sighed and nodded. I leaned back in my seat and Malia widened her arms and asked, "It's too big."
I tied one side of the t-shirt, it wasn't that great, but it was helpful. She smiled and said, "Thanks."
We ditched the car a mile away and went on foot to our house. I had to carry mom on my back. She was too tired to walk anyway. We reached the house, and we saw the Argent's were at home. We decided to use the backdoor to enter the house.
We reached home and I said, "We are home, mom." But I didn't hear any response, and Malia softly said, "She's asleep."
I took mom upstairs to her room. I placed her on her bed and removed her boots and put a blanket over her and closed the door. I saw Malia waiting outside, and I said, "You can stay in the guest room." I pointed her to the room and said, "I'll go and get the pillows and blanket."
She nodded, she went into the room and I went to get the pillows and comforter. I was also tired. It was a long ass day. I got the pillows and comforter from the cupboard and went to give them to Malia. I saw her sleeping on the floor and I asked, "What are you doing?"
She looked at me and said, "It's too soft."
I smacked my lips and said, "I mean you are used to sleeping on the ground, obviously it's going to feel soft." She looked at me and I said, "You can't sleep on it, can you?" She shook her head and I sighed and nodded… I went to get more blankets. I gave them to her and said, "If you need anything else. I am in my room, alright?"
She nodded, and I said, "Good night, Malia."
She smiled and said, "Good night."
I switched off the light and closed the door. I went downstairs in the kitchen, and I was a little hungry. I opened up the fridge and I found some leftover pizza. I took the box out. I saw a pack of beer and I thought about it. But I decided not to because this won't do anything to me, so it would be a waste. I closed the fridge and put the pizza in the microwave and started reheating it. I took the pizza to my room and I started to eat it. It was still somehow cold.
After I ate the pizza, I went to smoke. I laid on the cold tile and thought about what I did today. I was free from Peter, but it still came at a price, Lydia was hurt, I don't even know if she survived the bite or not. Allison had to see her aunt die. I am not saying that Kate didn't deserve it, but Allison didn't deserve that. I just wondered if she was alright.
But the day wasn't all bad, I saved Malia. She is finally human and can have a normal life, well as normal life as a werecoyote can have. Mom and I don't have any major secrets, we are fairly open, and I like it. Derek gets to be the new Alpha, good for him. All in all, it turned out well for many people.
And I was alright with it. Not everyone can win…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I woke up the next day in my bed. I was sleeping in. I decided to take today a little slow. I wasn't tired or anything, I was just lazing around. I heard the door of my room open and I heard, "Finn, Finn, Finn!" I felt a tug on my shoulder and I opened my eyes and I saw Malia. She said, "Olivia is asking you to get up."
I groaned and said, "Alright…" I got up and scratched my head and yawned. I got up and stretched and said, "Good morning."
She smiled and said, "Good morning."
I asked her, "You had some sleep?"
She nodded and said, "I did, although it felt a little odd."
I chuckled and nodded, and she asked, "How did you sleep?"
I nodded and said, "Ah, good, got some winks here and there."
We reached the kitchen, mom was cooking, and I said, "Mom, you didn't need to… I could have made breakfast today."
She chuckled and said, "Well, then you should have woken up early." Malia and I sat down at the table.
I said, "Why did you wake up so early?"
She said, "Because I have work."
I looked at her and said, "Come on mom, you have been working for so many days, take the day off. Tell them I am sick."
She shook her head and said, "Nope, can't do it… already been using that one."
I sighed and said, "That sucks." She turned around and put the plates on the table and said, "I know, but I can't do anything about it." She made some bacon, eggs, and tomatoes. I was about to eat, and I saw Malia eating with her hands and she looked at me and I said, "Use the fork."
She said, "It's easier this way."
I smiled and said, "I get that but, since you are going to look like a human, you would also have to behave like one."
She grunted and mom said, "Just eat how you want to sweetie, we can start the human training thing later."
Malia was happy, and she ate with her hands and I picked up the bacon while eating it, and mom asked, "So who are you taking to the winter dance?"
I looked at her and I was a little scared to tell her but since I knew that Allison wouldn't go I said, "Allison."
She turned around and looked at me and Malia softly grunted and I looked at her but she just continued to stuff her face with food and mom said, "Didn't I tell you to stay away from her?"
I nodded and said, "Yes, you did and I remembered it but she kinda sprang that up on me very suddenly and I didn't know how to say no to her."
My mom looked at me and said, "No! That's how… you are not taking her."
I nodded and said, "I know, I mean, her aunt died in front of her winter dance might seem a little unimportant."
Mom looked away and said, "Totally forgot that. So who are you going to take now?"
I shook my head and said, "I am not going."
She looked at me and said, "Oh, come on, it's going to be fun… you can't just skip it."
I looked at her and said, "Come on mom, people got hurt with this whole thing, don't you think that we should also just rest?"
She sat down and said, "Yeah, we should have, if they knew that it was us… most don't know that it was us. The Argent's don't know that it was us, and if you don't go might seem a little suspicious to them."
I sighed and said, "Fine, but I still have no date."
She looked at me and said, "Sure you have, take Malia."
I looked at her and Malia said, "Where are we going?"
Mom smiled and said, "It's a dance where you get to wear a beautiful dress and dance all night. It's going to be amazing."
I wanted to say something but she said, "Oh, would you look at the time, I am getting late. Lucius, you take Malia shopping for some dresses and get yourself a good suit as well." She got up and put on her coat and said, "And use the master card, not the Amex one."
I smiled and said, "You really need to come up with better excuses."
She smiled and said, "Goodbye." She kissed our forehead and went out.
I sighed and Malia asked, "Why do you sigh so much? Do you not want to go with me?"
I shook my head and said, "It's not like that… it's nothing. Finish up the breakfast, we'll leave in a bit."

Hey guys, I hope you all enjoyed the chapter. The season 2 of the ff starts from here and a lot will be changed from the get go like the motivations and allingnments and all that. Another thing that I would like to announce is that I will be reducing the amount of chapters released every week.
Because I am working on a new project that is in the works, I am really excited about working on it. And many people of the discord are helping me with the process of making it. It should be out very soon. (PS. Not Naruto.)
And another thing, my semester exams should begin sometime around the last week of this month or the start of the next month, so I may just stop uploading for a while.
That is it, those were the announcements that I wanted to make thank you to those who listened. If you enjoyed the chapter, please leave a comment down below and throw some stones while you are at it, and we are about to pass 1M views kinda excited. That is it and I will see you in the next chapter. Bye
