Damien stood outside Beacon Hills High, looking up at the tall building. There were students all around him, laughing and talking. He hadn't ever been around this many people before. It made him tense.

Malia could sense that and stood close by his side, hoping to calm him down. It was their first day of school and they were waiting for the one of the teachers to show them around.

"I was to go home." He mumbled.

Malia frowned at him and put her forehead on his shoulder. "You can't. We need to go to school. Be normal humans." She sighed. "And bedsides, you can't leave me alone. When in this together, right?"

He looked over at her, seeing her staring at him with those beautiful eyes. He nodded his head. "In this together."

"Mr. Lewis! Mis. Tate!" The teacher walked over to them with a large smile. "I'm Coach Finstock and I'll be showing you around." It seemed this guy didn't know how to talk at a normal volume and instead yelled every word.

"Great." Damien said quietly, not at all looking forward to this.

They moved inside the school and Damien tuned out of what Coach was saying. Everyone was turning to look at them, wanting to know about the students.

"You ever run track? I mean, you have excellent muscle definition..." Coach said towards Malia.

"I sometimes ran from cougars trying to eat me." She answered honestly.

Coach clicked his fingers. "I've had the same problem. And what about yo, Damien? You like Lacrosse?"

Malia nudged Damien so get his attention. "Huh? Oh yeah." He hadn't actually heard what he said and just agreed with him.

"Excellent! I'll be expecting you at try-outs!"

"Try-outs?" Damien asked with a confused look.

Coach didn't respond to him and moved on from the subject. "So, listen, we're gonna start off slow. you know, a few classes here and there. Don't worry... you'll learn fast."

Malia smirked. "I intend to."

After school, Stiles was standing in Scott's house. "Thanks again for helping them." He said and rubbed the back of his neck. Damien and Malia were supposed to be showing up soon so Scott could show them the basics of how to control themselves.

"It's not a problem. You know I don't mind helping them." Scott replied with a smile. "Can I ask... why are you so close to these guys? Didn't you only meet them once in Eichen?"
