Quinn's POV

Okay so it's official.

I definitely wasn't going to be able to sleep tonight, or like any night for the rest of my life, as I am still TRAPPED WHEREVER THIS IS!

We haven't even been here that long, or maybe we have, I have absolutely no idea. 

Alec still hasn't come back with Stiles, and I'm honestly starting to worry about people that I don't even know.

Well I know of them, but I don't actually know them. If that makes any sense you'll understand it. I was on the verge of getting to know Barry until Archie came in on all his hormonal rage.

"Hey guys." Suddenly Stiles just appeared, but I didn't know it was him at first so I punched him right in the face for scaring me.

"Ow! What the hell Quinn!" He held the side of his face knowing very well that it was going to bruise.

That's what he gets for sneaking up on me.

"Wait if you're here.... where's Alec?"

I may be wrong on this, but if Alec went looking for Stiles, then shouldn't they have come back together instead of one at a time?

"Stiles...shouldn't someone be with you?"

He looked confused that I had asked him that and cocked his head to the side.

"No one was with me. Should someone have been?"

So he didn't know anything about it?

That was strange.

If Alec didn't find Stiles, he wouldn't have just stayed out there alone right? He would've come back. Or at least I hope he would've been smart enough to do so.

"Um maybe we should go look for him?"

Not that I was worried, like I said before I don't know him, nothing to be worried about if you don't know the person you're not worried about.

Right?

"Alec's resourceful. If he went out then he'll be back, there's no reason to go out searching for him."

Wasn't Stiles supposed to be the cautious one?

He was being so nonchalant about the entire thing.

"Or maybe we should?" He tried again as he raised one eyebrow as if questioning what I was going to say next.

After a second I nodded.

"Good idea. We definitely should look for him. We don't know anything about this place, and I'd rather him not die in it."

Stiles was acting weird. Well, werider than normal, and I was starting to have a really bad feeling about it.

"Let's all go together this time. That way we can keep track of each other until we find Alec."

Barry and Archie were quick to agree, but Stiles still seemed like he was very hesitant. Almost against it is what I actually seemed like.

"Stiles, you sure you're okay man? You can sit this one out if you're not feeling up to it." Barry pointed out, even though it got him a glare from me.

Archie was another one that I couldn't really figure out. He didn't seem to happy about the fact that we were going to go and look for Alec, and he definitely seemed happier when he thought that Alec was gone for good.

Does Archie hate Alec or something?

"Here, I'll partner with Stiles, and you can partner with Barry. That way if someone gets lost, they have their partner with them. Sound good?"

Why was Archie so content on being Stiles's partner? Was he trying to give Barry and I room? Or was he trying to talk to Stiles about something that he didn't want us to know about?

Probably the second one if it's Archie. He's mysterious, and the only one that we don't know too much about. There's just something about him that gives me a bad vibe, like he's not exactly what he says he is. You know?

"I think it'd be way better if we just stuck together. That way we can keep track of each other, and we have less chances of getting separated since we'll be right next to each other."

I don't trust Archie. That's for sure, and I know I trust Barry and Stiles. So, it probably wouldn't be smart to leave Stiles with Archie, seeing as though it seems like something is seriously wrong with Stiles.

He seems disoriented and distraught. Almost like something's wrong with him, but he doesn't know what it is. Or maybe he does know what is it and he just can't remember it.

Did something happen when he ran off earlier? Is this why Alec went missing in the first place?

No, Stiles couldn't have done something like that, I refuse to believe it. Innocent until proven guilty. But with Archie I'm just saying that he's guilty of something because he gives me the creeps for no reason.

I'm probably just digging way to far into this. Stiles's and Alec's things have nothing to do with each other, and that's what I am going to tell myself until I am proven wrong, but if I'm proven wrong, I'm going to be pissed.

"Alright, so it's decided. We're going to stick together. Now Archie, you and Barry lead the way. Stiles and I will hang back."

Archie physically glared at me for about thirty seconds, and then gave up and went towards Barry.

"You coming?" I asked Stiles as I snapped him out of his head. His gaze quickly snapped straight to me as he nodded, almost afraid.

That was definitely something I was going to have to investigate later. Maybe after we got Alec out of this stupid forest? Yeah, probably then.

I pushed him slightly forward, and as we walked I held onto him from the side, scared that he would fall over if I gave him the chance to do so.

This cheer uniform was definitely not going to hold up whilst we're hiking. At least I have tennis shoes on, but this short shirt wasn't doing me any favors in the woods.

Well, I was going to have to put up with it if I wanted to get out of here anytime soon. The only thing complaining would do is make this situation worse than it already is.

And that's kind of a low bar to beat.
