Derek let go gently once he was on his feet, eyes travelling towards Chantel petting the puppy. "Mm.." He breathed softly. "I'll talk to her about it, alright? Let her know it bothers you. She..doesn't understand a lot. She never had parents, lived most her life a wolf." He stretched carefully. "Come on, or she'll play with that pup all day."

He nodded, putting his hands in his pockets. He couldn't imagine having to shift or hunt for your own food, but he guessed it came naturally when you're a wolf. He followed him over to Chantel, who was sitting on the ground playing with the puppy. "Aw, little puppy!" She squeaked, kissing the top of it's head.

Derek smiled faintly, careful not to let his teeth show too much. He wasn't sure if this woman was human or not. He chuckled softly. "Come on, Chantel. If you want to go shop, we gotta get going, okay?" He looked down at her with a smile.

"Okay. Bye puppy." She said, hugging it close before she let it go. She held out her hands to Derek so he could help her up, then wrapped her arms around him. Ace just waited behind them, pretending his shoes were the most interesting thing in the world.

Derek helped her up and hugged her tight for a moment before nudging her back the way they had come. He touched Ace's arm gently to get his attention before drawing back and slinking after her quietly, watching where he put his feet instead of looking up.

Ace followed them, looking over at the guys there as they passed again. He looked down again, his blue eyes looking down at the ground. He looked up at Derek, looking at him from the back before he looked back down again.

Derek walked in utter silence, opening doors for both of them again before climbing in and pulling out. Within a few minutes he was pulling up at the nearby mall and getting out again. "Ace..you get scared or anything, just stick close to me. I don't bite, promise." He smiled faintly, and led them towards the doors.

"Says the guy with the fangs." He said with a faint smile. He climbed out of the car, waiting for Chantel. He followed after them, his hands down in his pockets. He didn't want to fall behind, but he didn't also want to stay too close. He looked around warily, moving a little closer to Derek as they actually got into the mall.

Derek smirked at him at the comment, shrugging, and tapped his fingers on his hips as he walked into the mall. "You guys need anything in particular?" He huffed, glancing at Chantel, and then Ace in question. "We can he to like, Macy's or something for clothes."

Chantel nodded. "Yeah, I need a new skirt. I got a hole in mine the other day." She said. Ace just shrugged, keeping his hands in his pockets. He looked around quietly, but he never got to go shopping so he didn't know what he was really looking at. He reached up, rubbing his nose before he sneezed. "Where's the bathroom?" He mumbled.

"Alright, Macy's it is." He glanced at Ace, licking his lips. "It's along the way." He led them across the mall quietly, pointing the bathrooms out to Ace before leading Chantel inside the store to the women's section. "Look around and see what types you like, I'm going to grab a water from the vending machine." He ruffled her hair and went back out towards the machines my the bathrooms, pulling a dollar form his wallet and feeding it in, reaching to grab his water.

Ace wandered off to the bathroom, using it before he went and washed his hands. He looked up in the mirror, but the boy in the mirror needed a hair cut. He had a hole in his shirt, and looked like he'd had on the same jeans for a few days. There was still a faint bruise on his chin, and a faint mark where his cheek had been gashed open. His eyes were bright but troubled. And Ace couldn't help thinking this wasn't who he was supposed to be. He sighed, walking out of the bathroom to find Derek.

Derek was heading back to the store when he spotted Ace and slowed down to weight for him, playing with the bottle in his hand. He eyed the male's department across from where Chantel was, but figured she would need more help than the boy would. "We'll be over here, pick out whatever you like, okay? Let me know if you need anything."

Ace looked at him hesitantly, but walked over anyways. He imagined this would be nothing less than torture. He would have to try on all his clothes since he didn't know his size, and he had absolutely nothing at their house. He figured he may as well start with the jeans, picking up a pair to look at them.

Derek wandered over to help Chantel pick out a skirt that would hopefully fit her, waiting for her to find what she liked. Occasionally he glanced towards Ace to make sure he was doing alright, since he had seemed so reluctant to actually go over there.
