Part Nineteen

(I re-edited this story. Also sorry that this story isn't the best. It's one of my first two😅I'm trying to improve on my other stories. So if you don't enjoy this one go check out another one of mine.~𝓐 🤍)

Jo's POV.

You know how I said I froze because of who interrupted us. Well I still am. I can't believe it he's here he turns and looks at me. I can't speak. I can't say anything why is he even here after what he did.

"Jo you okay?"

Everyone looks at me an I can't look away from him. It's like I hear them talking but I can't move or speak. I can't feel my body. Scott gets up and gets in front of me. He grabs my shoulders.

"Hey hey don't do this again."
"What's going on?"

Allie asks. Stiles looks at Theo then at Lydia. Lydia whispers.

"You know she's a witch right?"
"Yeah but what's wrong?"

Allie asks.

"She barley uses her powers. She moved away from here to stay with her brother and she has no need for them there and she's afraid people will test on her. So she has no way or time to practice so when she uses magic and sees a certain person she wants to use it on she freezes and can't speak or move. He body becomes numb and she stays still and just stares."
"Yeah but what did Garrett do to her?"

She looks over.

"He um r@ped her."

Stiles says.

"I thought drake did."
"Garrett did too."

Theo says.

"Poor Jo."

I can't move or speak the restaurant goes quiet and everyone is starring at us now.

"Hey hey snap out if it. Look at me Josie look at me."

Scott looks into my eyes and I look into his.

"He isn't going to hurt you not when I'm around okay? So take a deep breath and close your eyes for thirty seconds like we've talked about."

I close my eyes.

"Now count to thirty in your head."

I count to thirty and open my eyes.

"Breathe."

I breathe and look at everyone and back at Scott.

'Thank you.'
"Always. Come sit by me and Stiles."

He grabs my hand and I sit by Stiles. They're the two I feel the safest around. Stiles may be an ex but he will do anything to protect me even though we fight a lot. He's more like a brother to me yeah kinda gross to date someone who feels like a brother I know but hey you only live once so. I look over at Theo. He mouths.

"You okay love?"

I mouth back.

'Yes'
