Losing It ~ TeenWolf

Part 28

Liam

I left Charlotte's room and went into my own, I packed my bag for school and then sat on my bed with my phone in my hand.

I clicked onto Theo's contact and stared at his name on my screen. I wanted to talk to him about all of this hair with Charlotte and now my mother but I didn't even know if he'd care.

I mean, he and Charlotte are at least kind of friends, I guess, but it still isn't his problem, why should he have to deal with it when I pushed him away?

I decided to call anyway, I needed a lift to school and I felt like Theo would be the most willing.

I held my phone to my ear and chewed anxiously at the skin around my nails, he answered on the third ring.

"Hello?" He said, his voice still thick with sleep.

I felt kind of bad considering he was asleep and I'd woke him up but I needed this favour.

"Hey, it's Liam.. I need to talk to you about a few things.. would you be able to give me a lift to school?" I asked, my finger was raw by the time I had finished my sentence.

"Yeah, of course." He sounded like he had and immediate wake up call. "When should I pick you up?"

"I'm ready when you are."

"I'll be there in twenty minutes." He said, I heard him stand up out of his bed.

"Alright. Thank you for this."

"Yeah, no problem."

"See you soon."

"Bye." He said and he ended the call.

I heard the door downstairs close and I knew that Charlotte had already left. I don't know why she needed to leave so early.

I waited around for a few minutes, doing small tasks before I heard the honk of a horn from outside.

I grabbed my bag and swung it over my shoulder before walking out of the door, I locked it after myself and turned around. I spotted Theo's sleek black car and walked out of the garden and over to the car.

I sighed quickly before I opened the door and sat down in the seat.l, I closed the door and turned to look at Theo.

"Hey." He said sounding exhausted.

"Sorry to wake you up." I mumbled.

In all fairness, we had school anyway so he had to be awake soon regardless.

"It's alright." He said. We didn't speak for a few minutes and the awkward atmosphere was building around us. "What did you want to talk about?" He asked anxiously.

"Can we talk about it on the way to Derek's?"

"Why Derek's?"

"Well, I need to find Amy and I figure that Cora would be the best way to do that and we need Derek to find Cora." I explained.

"Seems oddly complicated." He started the car and we drove down the street. "Why do you need to see Amy?"

"Well, Charlotte came home this morning and then she had this huge fight with our mom and then she kinda had a go at me and then she said to tell Amy to meet her in the alley near the library." I said.

"Why are you doing this if she 'had a go at you'?" He asked.

"Because she's my sister and I love her."

He took a minute before speaking again. "Do you love me?" He asked quietly.

I looked over at him but he refused to look at me. "Of course I do..."
