About To Be Known [Book 3]

Time Flying

Notes:

Hello hello, it's been a minute or so. Honestly, I haven't posted in the story since March 12th. I apologize, but I've had no motivation to write whatsoever. And I kind of got stuck with the story because I didn't know where I wanted to take it. Well, that's a lie. I knew where I wanted it to go, but I didn't know how to get from where I left off to where I wanted to be. So I made this chapter.

I made it quite long because I haven't posted in a while. Also, I have another chapter in the works. I cannot say it will be posted today but hopefully tomorrow.

***Also wanted to add quickly that this chapter is formatted like how my filler chapters are written. It's a little different than how I typically write a chapter. {My fillers are generally all written from Stiles's point of view and there is very little dialogue.} But please forgive this chapter for being this way because if it didn't happen I couldn't write anything else. I would have been stuck in the same place. So sometimes my chapters have to turn out this way but just think of it as a stepping stone for better chapters. I just want to put this on the preface so nobody complains. Because I noticed it's different, it's just that for me to be writing this rather than not writing at all because I'm stuck.***

Stiles POV:

A few weeks pass by.

The classes have been going well, all things considered. I've learned a lot. More than I would've learned on my own, so I consider this a win even though the start of this seemed like a considerable loss. But moving past that since we're all friends sort of now. However, Peter gives Rei the stink eye if he ever catches sight of him. But other than that, life was pretty much uneventful, which is a new thing for me. Because they're always used to be something going on but for a few weeks to a month nothing happened. At that time, I got a lot of crap done. I attended all my classes full-time and actually worked on passing them, unlike before when I barely attended because I was wrapped up in supernatural shit. But at least this time, I made an effort, and I passed a few of my classes, thankfully. I never said I got an A, but I passed, and you know what, that counts, and it's good enough for me.

Besides getting semi-good grades and passing all my classes, I also started to develop an understanding of my Kitsune powers; I don't have a hang of anything yet. Still, I do have a deep understanding of it. What that means is, I read a bunch of shit about Kitsune's, and I can sort of get it. But I've been banned from trying any of it out because I was told it is dangerous and I might die. Apparently, after I told my teacher that to test out my powers, I touched a taser. He decided to ban me from "testing out" my powers. I can see where he's coming from, but it's boring. Because the only time I can test anything out is when he's near me.

Have I been following this rule to a T?

Oh, hell, no.

I've been practicing on my own for about a week? Just because I do things that could be considered reckless and dangerous doesn't mean........well, no, it does mean I'm stupid. But! I still need to practice; otherwise, I'm never going to get the hang of it. And I only meet Rei once a week. And that's way too little time of my life spent doing something that I need to get the hang of. So I do practice on my off time. I don't do big things. I have time with Rei to do that, be as reckless as I want, and not suffer many consequences.

But on my own, I do simple things.

Simple things such as testing out the limits of my power. Whatever I learn with Rei, I do on my own, and I hold it for as long as I can. To build up the strength of doing it.

I expect to get into fights. I don't want to get into fights, and I have no plans of doing so, but knowing my life, it's inevitable. Especially knowing the people I know and especially since Scott, Bonnie and Deaton are hell-bent on "curing" me. And me not having any plans to be "cured," so I'm going to get into a fight sometime in the future when they inevitably find me.
