new york wolves } { of trying new things and letting go

[impetere]

Cora: [it's a last minute idea, but she needs to blow off some steam and Tyler's the only friend at the moment that isn't too caught up in this by being Stiles’ friend too. It's warmer than it was earlier and she knows it'll be warm in the club so she dressed a little lighter, in a skirt and a thin long-sleeved shirt. As she makes her way closer to the door, she spots Tyler and gives a small wave] Hey.

Tyler: [honestly, he's glad for the excuse to get out of the apartment and blow off some steam. he and Caroline had a fight over where they were going to go for spring break, and he knows that they'll figure it out later, but right now he has angry energy to burn] Hey, you good?

Cora: [she shrugs] I will be. I just ... needed to get out for a while. [and eventually she might use actual words to explain her feelings but right now she doesn't want to think]

Tyler: [he nods, and holds open the back door for her to slip in. He had already paid off the security guard to let the two underage teens into the place. Not like they drinking did anything to them] Well, best thing about this place, the music's so loud you can't even think. [he held out earbuds to her in case she wanted to protect her sensitive hearing]

Cora: [nods as she takes them. She's gotten good at filtering out louder noises, but given how loud it is, she'll probably still be able to hear the music over the ear plugs anyway. She slips them in as she follows him inside, reaching back for his hand once she's inside so that she doesn't lose him in the press of the crowd.]

Tyler: [he finds a good spot on the floor that works and then pulls her close with a grin, and just going to dance with her, getting lost in the music]

Cora: [smirks a bit in return, before turning and shifting so that her back was pressed against his chest, letting his arm curl against her stomach as she follows his lead with the rhythm]

Tyler: [he grins, pulling her close. He'll give it a bit, but soon he's just going to start kissing along her shoulder and nuzzling her head a bit]

Cora: [her eyes close at the touch, feeling the press of his lips through the thin material of her shirt, her hand comes to rest over his against her stomach, fingers curling against his skin so that her nails scratch, just slightly]

Tyler: [his fingers curl against her stomach, rubbing the thin material before inching it up just a bit to let his fingertips only play along the skin there]

Cora: [she shivers when she feels his fingers brush her skin, her head tipping back unconsciously against his shoulder as she continues to move with him]

Tyler: [and they will pretty much be doing this for a few dances where he sees how far she'll let him go on the dance floor without being too indecent, and eventually will turn and kiss her there on the floor]

Cora: [she actually lets him get pretty far, so that by the time she turns around again her body is buzzing with the need for him to touch her and she meets the kiss eagerly, sliding her arms around his neck to pull him closer]

Tyler: [and there's a bunch of kissing and finally he's going to pull back] Wanna get out of here and find a dark corner?

Cora: [she can't quite hear him thanks to the ear plugs but she can catch his drift, given what they're already doing. so she just nods her agreement and waits for him to lead the way]

Tyler: [and there is a nice dark corner in the backstage area that they can fit themselves into, and totally having makeout times]

Cora: [yep, lots of make outs until Tyler's hands stay still just long enough to bring her back into reality and she places one hand to push back against his chest gently] Wait. [it's not what she wants to do. She doesn't want to wait, to get hung up on something that shouldn't (doesn't) matter, but she just needs to catch her breath for a second]

Tyler: [he nods, taking a half step back to give her that room. No, he knows what his role is, and he's not going to push her too much] You alright?

Cora: [she lets her hands rest against his chest for a moment, taking deep breaths as she tries to figure out what she's doing] I saw him today.

Tyler: Yeah, I heard he was in town.

Cora: [nods] I agreed to see him, when he told me he was coming. I thought I would be okay. [she wasn't even close]

Tyler: Yeah, take it not so much.

Cora: I just felt so ... disconnected. I hated it. It wasn't supposed to be like that, not with us. [he was the one thing, aside from the pack, that she felt sure of and connected to, and now whatever connection that was there was broken. she didn't know how to act around him anymore]

Tyler: Well, he fucked up, Cora. It's not something that's going to fix itself with him being gone like that.

Cora: I know. And right now, I don't even want to fix it. I don't want him anywhere near me. [but it doesn't stop that longing, that need to just give up and give in because she needs him and that's the terrifying part. She knows she's right and ending things with him was the right thing to do, but she hates how dependent on him she's realizing she's become]

Tyler: Then the next time he wants to see you, you tell him to fuck off. You don't have to be around him if you don't want to. And if he can't respect that, then he's not worth your time.

Cora: [she swallows a bit and nods] He probably won't be back until summer. At least that gives me a little bit of time.

Tyler: Yeah, but even so, summer comes and you don't want to... you have every right to tell him to fuck off, Cora.

Cora: I know. I know but ... part of me still doesn't want to. I don't want him around but part of me still expects him to be there when I wake up. [and then it hurts when he isn't.] I'm not moving on and I need to but I don't know how.

Tyler: You talk to your sister about it at all?

Cora: Tried. She's got a lot of her own stuff going on right now. [and a lot of the things she said are things she already knows] My brother says I shouldn't shut down, but I don't know what else to do.

Tyler: You thought about maybe actually dating around? Seeing how that feels?

Cora: I didn't ... I suck at dating. [and she doesn't really want to date. She just wants a distraction] Stiles and I didn't really date in the first place we just sort of ... happened. [they were never really friends as much as they liked to claim they were, and watching Doctor Who with pizza doesn't really qualify as a date in her mind, even if they wound up making out by the end of it]

Tyler: Well... maybe that's the problem. You didn't really get to know him before you dove into it.

Cora: [she glances away for a moment] I thought I did.

Tyler: [sighs because he's being unfair. But he's protective of you, Cora] Or maybe he changed when he was turned into a wolf, and no one noticed until shit went down.

Cora: Yeah, I thought about that too. [and she doesn't like it any more than the previous options but it's true. getting the bite changes you - she's been hearing it since she was a kid]

Tyler: Maybe he's the one who needs to talk to someone and figure himself out. I mean, it all keeps coming back to him being a dick.

Cora: [he wasn't always, though. He was sweet and funny and he loved her and that's the part that she really doesn't want to think about, that those two parts can exist within the same person] Maybe. [it doesn't help her, but it's a solution for something] I'm just ... tired of turning it over in my head trying to find what I didn't see.

Tyler: Well, no offense, Cora, but you're not going to find that guy you first met and liked no matter what. Too much has changed. He's going to be a new person no matter what. Even this, right now - being away from you is going to change him. Whether you like it or not, and when you're ready to be with the guy again, you're going to have to get to know THAT guy and see if he's worth it.

Cora: And what if I don't want that guy? Do I just walk away for good? Can I walk away for good?

Tyler: That's up to you. You're not mated to the guy yet. And you don't owe him a damn thing.

Cora: [she nods. she just has to remember that when the time comes]

Tyler: [well, his mood is a bit killed at the moment for makeouts] Come on, let's take a walk and get some fresh air. I'm sure we can find something to eat along the way too.

Cora: [sorry, Tyler. She just nods in agreement because she can't seem to find that need in her again either, but she's also frustrated (more with her herself than with him, but also because of him), but he's right. They need a break and some air and maybe they'll be able to get back there on their own.]

Tyler: [keeps his arm around her shoulder as they walk, giving her that bit of comfort] So what are you planning to do on spring break?

Cora: [makes a face] Nothing. Alexis and Hal are going to LA to see Stiles and Malia is probably hanging out wherever Jeremy is going so instead of playing awkward fifth wheel to whatever all the couples are doing I figured I'd just stay home and veg.

Tyler: Dude, it's spring break. Just use them for a couch or a bed and a place to sleep and store your stuff, and you'll see them on the plane back to New York in a week if they're lucky.

Cora: [glances up at him with a squint] And do what exactly? I only really go to clubs with you or Malia and it's not as though I have a ton of other friend. [and she's not going to Beacon Hills. That is a big fat nope.]

Tyler: Seriously. [he stops her and turns her to face him] That's the point of spring break. You go somewhere you don't know anyone, do shit you aren't going to want people you see every day to know about, and have some fun.

Cora: [she glances up at him before shaking her head] I don't know. That's not really me. [she's too paranoid, too insular, too worried about things in general and that's not a post-Stiles development] I can't do those things on my own. [It would be different if Malia were going with a group of friends and not a guy who's practically her boyfriend]

Tyler: The you that you are now, yeah. But remember, working on trying to get you to try new things? And... if nothing else, you'll have a different view out your window if you spend the entire week inside studying.

Cora: [she sighs heavily] I just don't want to be the only single person in a giant group of couples.

Tyler: That I can't help you with. But you could just get away. Go somewhere on your own that you want to visit. Explore and see something new.

Cora: Maybe. I'll think about it. [which is no guarantee that she'll actually leave the city but maybe she might hit up some museums or something just to get out of the house]

Tyler: Really think on it. Just getting away from everything may help clear your head a bit. Why do you think we all left Virginia for school?

Cora: [she laughs] Point taken.

Tyler: And hey, if you're going to study chemistry, think about doing it in a hot tub looking at the ocean.

Cora: Also an excellent point.

Tyler: You'll thank me, I promise. [leans in to kiss her gently]

Cora: [kisses him back, staying close for a moment as she pulls back] I do want to do this. [it. him. whatever the appropriate word is] I just keep overthinking it. [and she really needs to stop that since a lot of the reason why she comes to him in the first place is to get out of her own head]

Tyler: You know I'm here for you, Cora. Care and I talked and she's fine with it. You're the one steering this ship.

Cora: I know. [and she does. and she trusts him, which is probably the most important thing. And Stiles had told her it was okay, even if it really wasn't - she could feel as much, and maybe that's the thing that's throwing her] Do you think we could go back to the club? After we eat? [because she was there and she was in it up until the point she wasn't and now that she's talked it out, maybe it'll be easy to slip right into it again]

Tyler: Sure. [sniffs the air] Options look like pizza, McDonalds, and... [sniffs] I think I smell gyros or a dying lamb.

Cora: McDonalds. I need a cheeseburger.

Tyler: You mean something that resembles a cheeseburger, right? [grins and starts to head them in that direction]

Cora: [laughs as she follows him] It's grease, it's cheese and it's some kind of meat so I will just take it as it is.

Tyler: At least we don't have to worry about food poisoning.

Cora: Yep. Or getting fat.

Tyler: That too.

Cora: [she jogs ahead as they reach the door before holding it open and taking a deep breath] Still smells so good.

Tyler: [laughs] Yeah, you're adorable. I'll get a table, you go get what you want.

Cora: Do you want anything?

Tyler: Um.... [looks at the menu] Twenty pack of chicken nuggets.

Cora: [nods] Got it. [and with that she'll hop on line. not long after she'll emerge with a big mac, a giant thing if fries (in case Tyler wanted some) and his chicken nuggets, as well as two empty fountain drinks] I wasn't sure if you wanted a drink so I figured it was just easier to let you choose for yourself.

Tyler: Awesome. I'll grab them. [and he will go and get her drink and his, used to what she drinks at this point and brings it back]

Cora: [grins as he comes back and takes the drink from him] Thanks.

Tyler: So you taking summer classes?

Cora: Thinking about it. I like to keep busy.

Tyler: We're debating on what we're going to do. I'm thinking the girls are in the dorms, so they may come live with us for the summer. Which means if Elena's living with us, Jer is probably going to be living with you guys. [laughs]

Cora: [laughs] I hope he doesn't plan on getting laid much if that's the case.

Tyler: I think he doesn’t want to hear his sister having sex, or vice versa.

Cora: Yeah, but you met Peter right?

Tyler: Yeah, pretty hard to forget him.

Cora: That's her dad.

Tyler: ..... Yeah, I will start preparing Jer's funeral now.

Cora: Probably a good idea, just to be on the safe side.

Tyler: Think it's appropriate to have a eulogy of "Here lies Jeremy Gilbert. He liked to try and test boundaries. Apparently the last one was too far."

Cora: Sounds pretty accurate to me. [all said in between bites of her Big Mac]

Tyler: [and he's popping the nuggets like popcorn]

Cora: Jeremy's not bad though. I don't think Peter would mind too much if Malia actually claimed him as her own, once he got over the initial growling phase.

Tyler: Then he's lucky in that regard.

Cora: [she nods and not long after that she finishes off her burger with a happy sigh] Derek used to be pretty bad too.

Tyler: The only brother with three sisters? Color me surprised.

Cora: At least he wasn't the oldest brother. Since Laura's the alpha he learned not to growl at her boyfriends.

Tyler: Now did Peter learn that lesson?

Cora: No. No matter how much training he underwent, Laura was still his niece so high school boyfriends got treated to the death stare.

Tyler: He comes off as the untrainable type.

Cora: My mom had him on a pretty tight leash, but she was his alpha since he was a kid.

Tyler: [chokes on his soda] Sorry, I'm imagining Peter on a leash. Give me a second.

Cora: [laughs] Proverbial.

Tyler: No, still funny.

Cora: [shakes her head as she works through her fries] He's not as scary as he seems though.

Tyler: To you.

Cora: To anyone.

Tyler: I'll see it when I see it.

Cora: You just have to get to know him.

Tyler: [nods as he finishes his last nugget] I'm sure. Ready to go back to the club?

Cora: [nods] Let's go.

Tyler: [and so back to the club and dancing, it's more crowded now so they are pressed a bit closer. But the smell of human sweat, alcohol, and sex is rising]

Cora: [and it's enough to block everything else out, and she leans into the press of him, catching his scent mixing with his, and pushing the dance into more of a grind]

Tyler: [so not complaining about the grinding. He will also be doing some groping without exposing her at all]

Cora: [she sucks in a breath as she feels his hands wander, arching slightly into his touch as her hand moves to the back of his neck to keep him close]

Tyler: [and the smell of lust in the place is making it hard for Tyler to behave, and his hands are going to slide up her shirt and cup her breasts as he kisses along her shoulder]

Cora: [there's a small whimper of a noise from her at that, but she doesn't pull back, continuing to push her hips back against him with more of a firmer push]

Tyler: [He will grind back, getting a bit harder in the below the waistline department]

Cora: [she notices that and she'll keep going with the beat for a moment, before tipping her head back to whisper in his ear] Maybe we should find that corner again.

Tyler: [there's a soft growl, lustful, in her ear] You sure about that?

Cora: [she nods in agreement, her nails trailing against the back of his neck]

Tyler: [and he's going to guide her back through the crowd to that spot backstage and he's going to push her up against the wall, lifting her up to get her legs around his hips so he could grind up against her with the wall holding her in place, kissing her hard]

Cora: [lets her legs go around his hips easily, wrapping her arms around his neck and rocking her hips back against his with each push of him, one hand moving down and tugging at his shirt]

Tyler: [it'll come out of his pants easily, and it's just a tee that he isn't all that attached too. His hands will go from her hips and lift her shirt, cupping her breasts as he goes to nip along the top of them.]

Cora: [her head falls back against the wall behind her as he does that, her legs tightening around his waist to press him closer. She can feel her skirt sliding up her thighs but she doesn't particularly care at the moment. She just hopes that no one walks in on them]

Tyler: [if they did, he would scare them away. But as it is, he's a very hungry wolf and while he's not going to open her bra and expose her breasts, he will try and suck and bite at her nipples through the fabric as he gets his hardness right between her legs, pressing it up against her sex. He can feel the dampness, smelling her arousal and his hand if going to slip down to rub at her over her panties a bit between grinds]

Cora: [she pushes back against him, nails digging in against his shoulders but careful not to tear the fabric and eventually she just needs more than simple pressure] Ty ...

Tyler: [he goes to kiss up to her ear] I've got a condom in my back pocket. Just say the word... [but he's going to slip a finger past her panty and rub at her clit]

Cora: [she moans softly at the press of his finger, before nodding] Yes.

Tyler: [and he's going to kiss her hard pressing her up harder against the wall. He needs his hands for a moment, and he's going to get the condom, unzip himself and it only take a minute before he will feel him pulling her panties to the side and the head of his shaft pressing against her. He's bigger than Stiles - not that he knows it - but he knows to press in slowly, giving Cora the chance to get used to him]

Cora: [her hands grip his shoulders tightly as he slides in taking the moment to adjust. there are differences but in this instance differences are good. It keeps her in the moment and she'll just lean eagerly into the kiss, nipping at his bottom lip as she rocks her hips against his]

Tyler: [it's not going to be slow and sweet. They were two teens in heat and he was going to fuck her nice and good against that wall. It was the thrill of being in semi-public, the first time, and all the stimuli against him. Almost unconsciously, his thrusting it to the bassline of the electronica song, fingers digging into her ass to pull her harder against him, his pelvis rubbing against her clit with each thrust in]

Cora: [she didn't really want slow and sweet in the first place. She feels like she's been building up to this for months and all of the frustration and tension that she's been carrying is starting to intensify, as she builds towards a peak, gripping his shoulders tightly and breaking the kiss with a moan, letting her head fall back against the wall again as she tries to catch her breath]

Tyler: That's it, Cora. You're so fucken tight. Come on, no one can hear you... [he gnaws at her jaw, pulling her in harder]

Cora: [it doesn't take much longer. She's so wound up and has been needing this that she's falling over the edge hard and fast, her eyes flashing in the darkness as she does]

Tyler: [he's right behind her, pressing her against the wall as he thrust into her hard for his orgasm, and then leans against her shoulder panting] Fuck... oh fuck Cora...

Cora: [she sighs softly as she relaxes against the wall, feeling more loose and comfortable than she has in months. Her head tips to the side, resting against his and closing her eyes] Thank you.

Tyler: Anytime. [he smirked against her cheek as he nuzzled her] Though we should probably slip out of here before someone comes looking.

Cora: [she nods as she lets him pull back and disentangle from him, readjusting her clothes so that they're sitting properly again]

Tyler: [he's going to do that, tying off his condom and looking for a place to trash it after he's zipped back up] So more dancing, or you want more of something else? [he's smirking]

Cora: [she glances back to dance floor for a moment, raking her teeth over her bottom lip before glancing back to him with a bit of a blush] Something else?

Tyler: Then the only other question to ask is - My place or yours?

Cora: Not mine. [she shakes her head] Not unless you want Peter to kill you.

Tyler: Not helping with his 'he's not so bad' image there. [takes her hand, going to lead her back to his apartment]

Cora: [follows his lead, keeping her hand in his] He's protective and he's not used to me ... sleeping around.

Tyler: Understandable. Jeremy will know better to say anything, and Matt's given up judging us.

Cora: [she nods] Sounds good.

Tyler: [and they will go back to his place and sex it up until they are good and spent in a sweaty pile on his bed?]

Cora: [pretty much at which point Cora will have to decide if she's spending the night or should go home]

Tyler: [nuzzles into her neck] You can stay if you want. Bed's big enough for three.

Cora: [closes her eyes as she curls into him, exhaling as she gets comfortable] Okay. [here is good. she's comfortable and lazy and she doesn't want to have to shower]

Tyler: [and snuggle times with lazy kissing until he falls asleep]

Cora: [and she stays up for a little while longer, brushing her fingers against his arm as she comes back into reality. She doesn't regret it but it still feels ... different, maybe not in a bad way. She'll just have to figure it out later. But for right now, she's closing her eyes and drifting off to sleep]
