In Jackson car, Jackson is driving while I sit on the passenger seat waiting for Allison, I pull my phone out of my bag "I will call, Allison"
Jackson argues taking his phone out "No, I will call her" I look at him confused and he puts it to his ear talking to Allison "Lydia says we're coming to get you."
Allison on the phone "Please, don't. I'm sure he's on his way. He's only... 26 minutes late."
I argue "You hear that? First it's 'He's only 26 minutes late' A month later it's 'he only hits me when he's drunk' Slippery slope, Allison. Slippery slope."
Jackson insists "We're picking you up."
Allison on the phone argues "No"
"Too late" Jackson pulls up in his Porsché with me. He rolls down the window. Strangely, his face has lost the paleness, a healthier glow returning to his cheeks "Lydia gets what Lydia wants."
I smile at him, Allison glances down the road again, Still no sign of Scott.
Jackson offers "Come on, get in. We can stop by his place and see if he's there"
Allison finally gives a reluctant sigh. But the moment she opens the door to get in the back, her phone buzzes.
I wonder "Is that him with the best explanation ever of why he's half a freaking hour late?"
Allison eyes her phone with a curious gaze "Not exactly."
⚜ The Lost Hunter ⚜
Outside the school, Jackson's Porsché swerves into the lot. He gets out of the driver's side, pulling the seat up to let Allison out. They both glance at the Jeep parked a few spaces away.
Jackson wonders "What are they doing here anyway?"
"All I got was this..." Allison holds up her cell phone to show him a text: Meet me at the school - Scott.
I give her a look "They lock the doors at night, you know."
"That one looks open." Allison points to the door lying open.
The bolt cutters sit upright against it, carefully placed there to hold it open. Almost as if welcoming Allison into the school.
Jackson gives her a look "You don't need me to state the obvious, right?"
Allison gives him a look "That it looks like they broke into the school? No. Pretty obvious."
Jackson offers "You want me to come with you?"
Allison shakes her head "It's okay."
"Allison..."
Allison pauses, turning back to him "You have this look like you're about to say be careful."
"I am." Allison gives Jackson a smile, surprising him
"What?"
"That concerned look on you. I've never seen it before."
"I am concerned."
"It's a good look for you"
From the Porsché, I notice the moment between them and hear them and clearly don't like it.
"Don't worry. I'll be right back." Allison steps into the dark corridor, and the bolt cutters slip, falling to the pavement... allowing the door to clatter shut.

Waiting behind the wheel, Jackson stares at Stiles's Jeep, studying it in the darkness "You see that?"
