Scott and Stiles had lacrosse try-outs, I decided I would tell him today. After try-outs, they followed a boy into the locker room, which I found a little odd but it was their usual thing to do.

"Hey, Liam... You want to explain what that was out there?" Stiles asked.

"What do you mean?"

"That little display. Your little circus act."

Liam looked confused, "What circus act?"

"You caught every shot."

"I was in goal."

"Yeah, but nothing, not a single shot got past you!"

"Yeah, I was the goalie. You guys played this game before?"

I walked in, "Yes they have, and they're very good at it." the three boys looked at me.

"Uh... Liam, you're a freshman, right?" Stiles asked drawing the attention back to Liam.

"Yeah..."

"But you weren't here last semester," Stiles said.

"I transferred from Devenford Prep."

Scott frowned, "You transferred?"

"Yeah."

Scott shook his head, "No... You got kicked out, didn't you?"

Liam became frustrated, "All right, look- kicked out or transferred, what do you guys care? I came here to play lacrosse. The team could use a few good players, right?"

"No. No, we don't need any more good players-"

Scott interjected, "Actually, we could sort of use a couple..."

"Okay, how'd you get this good? Have you always been this good? Or did it just suddenly happen just once overnight? Have you ever been out in the middle of the woods during the night of a full-"

"STILES!" the both of us shouted.

"Hmm. Look, I learned from my stepfather, all right? He made team captain when he was a sophomore- just like you. And yeah... I guess I'm just that good." he said as he grabbed his bag and left the locker room.

Scott shrugged, "He wasn't lying that time."

Before I could say anything a searing pain hit my stomach. I keeled over, minutes later Scott and Stiles rushed me to Deaton. Deaton had them go back to school. He came back into the room and leaned against the counter, "So, do you want to tell me what's going on, or do you want me to tell you what I think is going on?"

"...I'm pregnant..."

"Care to tell who the father is?"

"Does it matter?"

"You'd be surprised how important it matters in the supernatural world."

"...Scott... But it was an accident and-"

He held his hand up, "I understand, but you know you are now carrying the child of an Alpha. And being an Alpha yourself that child is going to be a lot stronger and faster than the both of you... Does Scott know?"

"I plan on telling him but-"

Deaton interrupted me, "Leia, you have two months before you give birth."

"Stiles knows."

He rubs his forehead, "You told Stiles, but not Scott?"

"Yeah, now that I think of it. That may have been a bad idea."
