CHAPTER FIVE

Charlotte is running through the forest, just like the night before, tears are welling up in the girls eyes, lungs heaving as she sprints as fast as she can.

She winces in pain as she steps on a sharp branch, but the fear of the flames behind her keep her from stopping.

She's not wearing shoes, which is quite odd, as well as the fact that this dream doesn't feel like a dream at all.

Charlie continues to run through the forest, completely unaware of where she is, she just knows she's close to a neighborhood, and nothing more.

She winces again, the flames licking the bare skin of her arms, making the girl let out a scream. Charlotte sees no end in sight, then suddenly, she trips over a root sticking out of the ground.

knocked out cold.

-✵-

The girl slowly opens her eyes, head pounding with immense pain, as well as her feet. Charlotte is laid on her back with her legs bent in front of her.

She fully takes in her surroundings, she's sat in the back of a car? Two voices arguing in the front seat. Charlotte rolls over to see what's going on, sitting up quickly.

She looks down at her clothes, the same ones she fell asleep in, except now theres dirt all over her. The voices suddenly halt as the girl stirs awake, confusing her even more.

Charlie fully sits up and sees she in the back of a jeep... doesn't Stiles own a jeep? She rubs her head and looks up to see who was talking, well, more like arguing.

She looks up, Stiles and Scott staring fearfully back at her.

What. The. Fuck.

Charlottes eyes widen in fear, frozen in place. She opens her mouth to scream, Stiles jumping to put his hand over her mouth. "You're going to wake up the whole neighborhood!" He yelps, staring at the girl sternly before moving his hand away.

"What's going on??" The girl questions, moving her head around aggressively. "We were hoping you'd tell us, we found you in the woods" Scott chimes, turning around in his seat.

"Why the hell would I know" The girl yells, throwing her hands up in the air. The pair in the front look at eachother confused, why was she in the woods?

Charlotte holds her head in her hands "my head is killing me" She mumbled, catching Stiles attention. He turns around, speaking to her softly "You must have fallen pretty hard" He whispers.

Charlotte looks up, tears welling "What is going on with me" She responds, causing the boys even more confusion. "What do you mean?" Scott asks.

The girl shakes her head and chuckles "You're going to think I've gone mad" She jokes, leaning back against the seat. Scott bites the inside of his mouth and gives Stiles a look that speaks volumes.

Stiles grappled with the idea of just telling her everything, because what if whatever's happening to her is supernatural, what if she's like Scott?

"Trust me Char, nothing you could say would sound insane, I bet we've heard worse" Comforting the girl. Charlotte doesn't miss the nickname that comes from his mouth, but ignores it for now.
