A Chance

Much needed break

Malia got in the car and took a deep breath.

"That was tough" she sighed watching Kira get in her car and drive away.

Malia started the car and started driving to Lydia's house.

As she drove away from her once close friend she felt a kind of relief as if a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. You see kira was that friend you were friends with but you don't know why, maybe it was because they had grown up together and so they felt like that had to be friends but the truth is, Malia wasn't getting anything out of that friendship. Malia didn't like reminiscing about Kira so she stopped.

Malia had arrived at Lydia's and she made her presence known by honking her horn in excitement. Not even 2 minutes later a strawberry blonde ball of joy made her way to the trunk of the car.
"Jesus Christ Lyds, you do know it's only two days right???"
"I'm Lydia Martin, I need every single item I packed" Lydia smirked applying her favourite red lipstick in the rear view mirror and then running her hands through her luscious locks "shall we hit the road then?" She said buckling up.

Lydia POV
*zzzzzz* *zzzzzz* *zzzzzzz*
"Where is it?!"
*zzzzzz* *zzzzzz* *zzzzzzz*
"Where's what?" Malia asked me taking her eyes off the road.
"EYES FORWARD!! Do you not care for my life? My phones ringing and I can't find it!!" I said panicking
*zzzzz* *zzzzz*
"GOT IT!!!" I cheered raising my phone "oh, it's stiles..."
"Hey Martin, I didn't want to call Malia because I know she's driving, I just wanted to know if you guys wanted to stop for lunch?"
I was so excited and happy to be getting away that I was in a mischievous mood and I wanted to prank Stiles.
"Uh me and Malia aren't coming anymore? Did she not tell you?" I said with confidence because I was sure he'd believe me.
"You Lydia Martin, are many things but a prankster, is not one of them" Stiles said with his predictable sarcastic whit "I can see you guys, you're two cars back, nice try though."
Malia started laughing because she could hear Stiles with her were-coyote hearing.
"Whatever, yeah we'll stop for food." I said kind of hurt that it didn't work and hung up.
------------
After stopping for lunch, they had all arrived at the part of woods that they would be setting up camp.
It was a flat area surrounded by trees that acted as a kind of wall to their home for the next two days. The twins went to collect some fire wood for the fire that would be in the middle with the 4 tents around it.
Malia and Stiles in the blue tent.
Allison and Scott in the orange one.
Aidan and Lydia had Lydia's old pink tent.
Isaac and Ethan probably had the worst one, even though it was a two man tent, it was a tight squeeze but everyone was happy with the arrangements.

Not that far from their now set up camp site, there was a beautiful cove. They all got into their bathing suits and got ready to go and explore.
"I'm uh, gonna hang back, there's something I have to do" Stiles said kind of suspiciously backing away from the group.
"What? Why?" Malia questioned
"Don't worry, I'll uh see you when you get back, have fun guys."
"Fine." Malia said turning away obviously upset and confused.

"Just wait Malia..." Stiles whispered to himself as he walked away smiling and shaking his head "you won't be mad tonight" he continued to his jeep.
