I say up a rippling feeling taking over my body. Obviously my skin had changed to fur. "Woah they all said stepping back. "Talk about déjà vu!" I said shocked.

They all let out an awkward laugh.
Liam's pov
I let out an awkward laugh. I had asked everyone to pretend she hadn't woken up, if she didn't remember it or thought it was a dream.

She hadn't given me an answer to my question and I didn't want her to. Just in case she had said said no.

I really liked her. And I wasn't making the mistake of rushing to asking her out, just for her to say no. I was going to think about this.

Hollows pov
I was sitting on Liam's bed. The others had decided it would be best if I stayed home from school. Only because I had told them about Kate, they decided I should stay at Liam's. And Liam should stay home with me.

It was an awkward kind of silence that engulfed us. Liam was watching something on TV. I hadn't realised how late it had gotten until I looked out the window and saw it was starting to get dark.

Liam must have noticed because he looked out the window too. I really didn't want to leave. Kate and the other stuff had scared me a little. But I guess I had to.

"I um. I should probably get going." I said looking down. "Wait what no! I mean. I um I mean I don't want you to go." He said looking down.

"Really?" I asked. I thought he would have gotten sick of me by now. "Yeah. I mean it's not really safe for you and Scott told me to stay with you tonight. And he would be mad if I didn't." He said in an obvious tone.

Oh Scott told him to. It's not because he wants to. It's because Scott wants him to. Wow. "Oh right. Obviously." I said a little annoyed at myself.

Liam's pov
I didn't really want to say what I did earlier. But I was embarrassed. Anyway after that she just seemed really distant. And now I'm laying on the ground trying to sleep because I didn't want to be a dick so I let her fall asleep on my bed.

I heard a noise. It sounded like a whimper. What. Is that hollow? I turned over to see hollow gripping the pillow. An orange sort of glow coming from her skin. What?

I slowly stood up and walked over to my bed. I knelt down next to the bed she was whispering something. I had to tune into my wolf senses to hear.

She was saying a bunch of random words but one word stuck out. 'Hale'. As in Derek hale? What? She then sat up quickly head butting me along the way. She let out a groan.

"Liam what the hell are you doing?" She groaned. "Um I thought you were having a nightmare. So I was going to wake you up." I said quickly.

"Ugh. I don't even remember what I was dreaming. Something about some guy." She grumbled.

At that moment my printer started making noises. I looked over and saw it was printing things. Hollow got up and picked one up but I saw what it was. It was the dead pool. I quickly ran over and snatched it from her.

"Help me turn it off." I said quickly, scared my parents would hear it and come in to see Hollow. My dad knows that I like her. But he wouldn't be okay with her in my room, at 3:00am, in my bed.

The printer soon stopped and I gathered all the pieces of paper, making sure hollow didn't see them. She didn't need to know about this. Just like she didn't need to know about Garret, we knew he was an assassin.

But she didn't need to worry about that with everything else going on right now. I kept one copy and folded it up placing it in my pocket.
