Chapter 2 - Pizza and Pettiness

After a few minutes of deciding when Scott returned from the kitchen, they quickly decided on ordering pizza and watching some scary movies, due to the storm. "So Lydia, what pizza do you like?" Scott asked her gingerly as he twirled the phone in his hands, Stiles knew that he already knew their order by heart. "Ooh erm...Ham and Pineapple please?" she hummed happily as Stiles groaned loudly, making them both turn to face him. Scott flashed him a dirty look as he spoke. "Oh god you're one of those weirdos who thinks that fruit belongs on pizza!" Stiles proclaimed meanly as Lydia flashed him an irritated look. "Anddd...? Its not weird." Lydia defended herself quickly as Stiles rolled her eyes at her. "No no it's weird, and disgusting!" he scrunched up his face in disgust which made Lydia angry. "Stiles! Shut up, she can order whatever she likes, don't be a dickhead." Scott jumped in quickly as he threw a puzzled look at Stiles but he ignored him. "Oh let me guess, you're one of those narcissistic assholes who thinks that their favourite topping on pizza is superior and the only one that should exist, either that or you're a saddo who just agrees with every other loser on the internet without even trying it first just because its a quote on quote 'popular opinion'." Lydia retorted back angrily which made Stiles scowl in response. "I don't need to try it to know that its gross thank you." Stiles said in frustration as Scott sighed heavily. "Guys can you shut the fuck up this arguing is pointless and getting you nowhere and its over pizza for fuck sake! Can I order now because I don't know about you but i'm starving!" Scott whined miserably as he cut into their bickering. Stiles sighed in response as Lydia nodded an apology as she turned her body away from Stiles which made him roll his eyes once more. Tonight was going to be one long night.

After ordering, the trio spent the next few hours stuffing their face with pizza and watching Scream movies as it started getting late. Stiles and Lydia seemed to have relaxed now as he had eventually moved away from the arm of the sofa and sat in his seat properly as it was more comfortable and Lydia was sat with her legs up and tucked to the side. Lydia yawned once more as the credits for Scream 3 rolled on to the tv. Scott sat slumped in his single chair as he had eaten too much and appeared to be in a food coma. "Erm...I'm kinda knackered so I'm going to go to bed. Night guys!" Lydia said sleepily as she stood up and headed upstairs, Melissa had set her up a bed in the spare room. "Night!" Scott shouted back loudly as Stiles chucked a "I don't care" over his shoulder in response. Once she was upstairs, Scott shuffled lazily onto the seat next to Stiles as he laid his head on the back of the sofa. "Stiles? What's up with you today?" Scott quickly asked him, taking him by surprise. "W-what? What do you mean? Nothing is wrong with me." Stiles responded as he laid his head back too. "Erm yes there is. Okay I've known you for most of my life and I know that you can be a sarcastic ass but I've honestly never seen you be so mean to someone you've only just met. so what's the matter?" Scott concluded briefly without even glancing at the boy. Stiles stayed silent for a moment as he struggled on what to even say back. He knew deep down that the boy was annoyingly right and that if he was being honest, he didn't even have a reason why he was being mean to Lydia, he just knew he didn't like her. "I don't know Scotty...i guess some people you just instantly don't get along with...like people don't always get along. There doesn't always have to be a reason for it. We just haven't hit it off." He stated as honestly as he can which made Scott look at him with a puzzled expression. "Fair enough Stiles, but what isn't there to like? She seems lovely, you just seemed like you was being difficult for no reason, even when she kept trying to be nice." Scott replied as Stiles sighed. He knew the boy was right but he didn't even have the answer himself, so he couldn't even give him one. "I don't know bro, i honestly don't, i just know that i don't like her." he said as honest a he could but even he knew that he still sounded like a dickhead. Scott hummed in response like he knew what he was talking about but Stiles knew he had no clue. Scott liked everyone, he was like a an overfriendly puppy that you couldn't bring anywhere without him approaching people.

The next day Stiles woke up early as light peaked through the blinds, shinning light straight into his eye. It appeared that the storm had finally passed. He sat up stiffly as he remembered quickly that him and Scott had fallen asleep on the sofa last night, forgetting to go to bed. Stiles stretched out his arms uncomfortably as he felt like his back and neck had been bent all night, he glanced over to Scott, who was still asleep in the strangest position ever as he had his legs bent over the back of the sofa and his head hanging of the seat upside down. his mouth was open as he snored quietly into the silent room. Stiles stifled a laugh at the boy as he drooled slightly out of the corner of his mouth. He knew that he'd wake up an feel as sore as that position looked. Stiles rose to his feet and headed upstairs to the bathroom as quietly as he could so he didn't wake the boy. He padded up the wooden stairs groggily, as he got to the top, he whipped out his phone checking the time as it read 7:05. Just as he was staring at his screen he walked straight into someone else, it was Lydia. Stiles jumped quickly as he stared in shock at the small girl who had just walked out of the bathroom. Stiles eyes went wide as he noticed that she had just come out of the shower, wrapped in just a small white towel and still covered in little droplets of water, Lydia yelped at the collision of the pair.

"Oh shit!" was the first words to come out of Stiles' mouth as he stared in shock at the wet girl. This was the second time he had seen her soaking wet and Stiles was starting to like her this way. Ew, no shut up Stiles. He quickly pushed away any dirty thoughts that entered his brain. "What the fuck Stiles?!" Lydia said hostilely as she clung too her towel, tightening it around her chest, which only made things worse from Stiles' perspective. He tried his best not to look at her body, but he couldn't help it. He might not like this girl but he was still a teenage boy with a naked girl in front of him. "Hey! this was your fault, you walked into me!" Stiles protested in anger as he looked away from the girl. She almost seemed to be seething with rage as she gave him an angry glare. "Are you kidding me? you was the one on your phone daydreaming!" She retorted in response as he let out a heavy breath. Was this girl for real? "Well excuse me for thinking the bathroom was free this early. Like who even gets a shower at the crack of dawn on a Sunday anyway?!" Stiles shouted back at her making her scowl. "I Do. Stop being dramatic! Its not that early, you're just lazy. Plus, sorry i thought it was common curtesy to check if the bathroom was free first before you you know...try to use it!" She snapped back at the tall boy making him fed up. "Erm...First off, I'm not lazy and secondly i-" Stiles was quickly cut off by a pissed off Scott who had come upstairs quickly after been woken up rudely by lots of shouting. He stomped towards Stiles, standing next to him with a scowl. "What the fuck is going on here?!" Scott angrily cut in as he immediately turned to Stiles. "Well don't look at me!" Stiles protested in frustration. "She's the one who bumped into me when all i wanted to do was go for a piss." Stiles ranted angrily which made Lydia step forward in anger. "Are you joking? you walked into me when i was leaving the bathroom because you was on your stupid phone and then you started having a go at me for getting a shower." Lydia defended herself quickly making Stiles roll his eyes at her. Scott turned to face him, "Dude. Come on. She's allowed to use the shower, she lives here now remember." Scott said in a calmer voice than he spoke in before as his tiredness began to set in once more. "But-" Stiles attempted to protest but Scott quickly cut him off as he raised a hand up to him. "Nope. I don't want to hear it man just shut up and go pee, its too early for this shit." Scott stated tiredly as he shuffled off back downstairs. Lydia gave Stiles a smug smirk as she flipped him off before walking past him to her bedroom, leaving Stiles to groan in frustration. What even was his life at this point.
