Summary: Malia is struggling with her break-up with Stiles and watching him be happy with Lydia. She learns to let go and be her own anchor.

=========================================================================

Her cold, blue eyes flashed in the darkness of her room. Her claws ripping into the sheets as she tried her very best to suppress the monster within.

Looking out the window, Malia Tate saw the full moon high up in the sky with no clouds to cover it and no stars to outshine it. It sat alone and mocking in the dark sky as it once again triggered her transformation.

Throwing the sheets off her, she opened her phone and focused on the picture of the smiling boy that was her screen saver. She looked at the picture and willed herself to believe he was really there with her. Telling her that things would be okay. That he'd never leave her.

She focused on him and him alone as she willed her heart rate to slow down.

She thought of the first time she saw him in Eichen House. The grey shirt and jogging pants he wore, the messed up hair, the bags under his brown eyes. She hated him first, for what happened and made sure he knew that.

But after that, when she let him talk and explain, things changed. She remembered feeling so...at ease with him. Like she could tell him everything she remembered the night her family died and she'd know he wouldn't judge her.
