"Finally, it's been a while since I've broken the law."

"So, what do we do now?" Stiles asks.

"Shit!" Scott exclaims in fear at Stiles' sudden voice.

"Oh- I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Stiles whisper yells when he sees the look on his best friend's face.

"Why are we apologising?" Charlotte asks from behind the two boys, making them both scream in surprise and turn to her.

"Oh, that's why... sorry." Charlotte winces, making the best friends let out a breath.

"Did you see where he went?" Stiles asks.

"No, I lost him." Scott shakes his head in reply.

"You couldn't catch its scent?" Stiles asks in confusion.

"Yeah, it's hard to forget what Jackson smells like." Charlotte nods, making Scott and Stiles turn to her with raised eyebrows.

"The sewer." She adds with a disgusted shiver, making the two boys playfully roll their eyes and turn back around.

"I don't think the Kanima actually has a scent." Scott hums.

"Well, that's gonna cause a bit of a problem." Charlotte mutters.

"Okay, do either of you have any clue where he's going?" Stiles asks, looking between the two.

"I don't know about the Lizard, but I thought we were going to get ice cream." Charlotte shrugs.

"We can never get a proper answer out of you, can we?" Stiles asks, his head shaking slightly as he looks at his best friend.

"No, that's what makes shit like this more fun. If it gets too serious, situations get uncomfortable and awkward." Charlotte nods as she explains.

"Okay, yeah, fair enough." Stiles nods, making Charlotte smile.

"To answer your question properly..." Scott trails, sending a smirk to Charlotte, who jokingly flips him off.

"He's going to kill someone." Scott tells Stiles before he looks around the corner.

"Wow, really? You never would have thought." Charlotte hums sarcastically.

"Yeah, probably explains the fangs and the tail and all that, it makes perfect sense." Stiles nods sarcastically, making Scott look between them two blankly.

"What? Scott, come on. I'm one hundred and forty seven pounds of pale skin and fragile bones, sarcasm is my only defence." Stiles rambles, making Charlotte let out a laugh.

"And what's your excuse?" Scott turns to Charlotte, a small laugh escaping his mouth at Stiles.

"I'm too awesome for an excuse." Charlotte smiles mischievously, making Scott purse his lips at her.

"I don't like that look." Scott shakes his head.

"You're gonna do something, aren't you?" Stiles asks the Lynx.

"It depends on what I have to do. If it's too much effort, I'll go and get some ice cream alone." Charlotte shrugs.

"Can't you just help us find it first?" Scott asks the Hale.

"No, no 'it' Scott, Jackson." Stiles corrects.

"Yeah, I- I know." Scott nods.

"There's not really much of a difference." Charlotte mutters under her breath.
