Love, it will get you nowhere
You're on your own
Lost in the wild
So come to me now
I could use someone like you
Someone who'll kill on my command
And asks no questions

EREBUSARGENT HAD GONE WITH ALLISON TO DROP OFF LYDIA. He thought it would be better, in case the Kanima decided to go after Allison, who granted wasn't a murderer. But, it didn't stop him from worrying about his cousin.
He thought about staying, worried the Kanima would kill Derek.
Allison stopped in front of the Martin house hold. "I need you to promise that you won't say anything about what just happened."
"I'll promise not to say anything about what just happened if you can tell me what the hell just happened..." Lydia replied.
When Allison hesitates, Erevus speaks up. "It's kind of complicated. And difficult to explain."
"Well, how about you start with why was Derek there? Or where Jackson was? Or what is wrong with Erica? Oh, do you need a minute to come up with a plausible lie?"
"Well, that was rude," Erebus says.
"Part of the reason why I'm asking is because Scott and I aren't supposed to be seeing each other, okay? So, it's better if you just keep what you know to yourself." Allison tells her.
Lydia sighs."Fine. I'll keep what I know about you and your boyfriend-- which is nothing-- to myself."
"Hey... He's not just my boyfriend. You get that, right?"Allison stopped her from leaving.
"Let me go."
"Just, for one second, please, try and remember-"
"Remember what?"
"Remember what it feels like...All those times in school when you see him standing down the hall, and you cannot breathe until you're with him. Or those times in class when you-you can't stop looking at the clock, because you know that he's standing right out there waiting for you. Don't you remember what that's like?"
Lydia looks off, as though she has no clue what Allsion is speaking of. "No."
"What do you mean, "No?" You've had boyfriends."
"None like that." Lydia pulls the door open, and leaves.
"Well, that was...eventful. We are killing Jackson, right? I mean, for the way he treats Lydia alone is enough to at least torture him."
