"Stiles," she said quietly and began shaking her head. "Please, let's not talk about it."
"No, Maya, I need to talk about it. I-if I don't have a chance with you, can you please just tell me? I thought I'd be okay with it, but I'm not."
"Okay with...

***** Laura Hale ******
The next day they gave an anonymous tip to the sheriff's department. Stiles had discovered that his dad was searching Derek's property and the three teens made their way out to the Hale house. The place was scattered with sheriff deputies and caution tape was put up around the very spot where they found the body. Maya couldn't help but feel like they were doing something wrong. She watched as the deputies walked Derek to the back of the police car. He shot daggers at Scott leaning up against the jeep and a look of betrayal Maya's way.
Maya tore her gaze away not wanting to look at him after last night with the body.
Stiles came out of the trees and began walking towards the car they put Derek in. Scott started hitting Mayas arm to get her attention. They were profusely shaking their heads at him telling him not to do it, but evidently Stiles slipped in the front seat of the car to have a word with Derek.
"Oh, my god." Maya muttered not wanting Stiles to get in trouble with his dad. Or Derek. "Scott, be the lookout."
"What? Maya, no!" He half-whispered yelled as she walked away.
He turned around and hid his face not wanting to get caught with the two of them. Maya jumped in the cop car pushing Stiles further in the front seat.
"Ahh! What the hell are you doing?" He questioned.
"What am I doing? What are you doing?" Maya asked throwing up her hands.
" I just want to know something." He turned to Derek. "The girl you killed. She was a werewolf." Maya could feel Derek's anger rising.
"Stiles, we need to get out of here."
"I just want to know. She was a different kind, wasn't she? I mean, she could turn herself into an actual wolf and I know Scott can't do that, is that why you killed her?"
"Okay, Stiles that's enough!"
"Why are you so worried about me? When it's your friends who's the problem. He shifts on the field. What do you think they're just going to keep cheering him on?" Derek began as Stiles was being dragged out of the car by Maya.
"Look, we can handle Scott. I'll figure it out. You have your own problems." She told him to leave Stiles.
"Maya!" Derek called and stared at her in anger. " I didn't do this."
" She said 'Derek' right before she was killed. She was meeting you in the woods." Maya told him trying not to tear up. "When she died, all she felt was betrayal. I'm sorry, but That sounds like guilt to me."
He had a mixture of surprise and sorrow on his face, but before he could respond she slammed the door shut. She turned around to see Stiles dad standing there with a very unpleasant look. He grabbed Stiles by the ear and pulled him away with Maya trailing behind slowly.
