I was in my room listening to music, and doing homework. Its been a few days since the mountain lion incident. Derek had gone to teach Scott control since the full moon was almost here.
As I was doing my Math homework I got a text from Lydia.
From Lydia:
Hey, I'm going shopping tomorrow. Wanna come?
To Lydia:
Yeah what time?
From Lydia:
After school
To Lydia:
Alright, see ya then.
I sat my phone back down and continued working.
Soon I heard the front door open and arguing. When I realized who the voices belonged to I fast walked downstairs, thank god Melissa is at work.
"What's going on?" I asked as I reached the last step.
"Your boyfriend here smashed my phone against the wall of the car garage." Scott said never taking his eyes off of Derek.
"Why did you do that?" I asked confused.
"Because, in order for me to teach him he has to get rid of his distractions, meaning Allison." Derek said. Keeping his gaze on Scott.
"Yeah, well, what about you?" Scott yelled.
"What about me?" Derek yelled back.
"Your weakness is Keegan. Why not get rid of her." I looked at him with wide eyes.
"Hey now, I just asked a couple simple questions. No need to bring me into your guys argument." I said making my way to the kitchen.
I sighed when they followed me continuing on with their argument.
"Hey! Listen, you only have to stay away from her for a few days, or at least until the full moon is over. Now here is what we will do, starting tomorrow Scott you don't go anywhere near Allison, and Derek, you do the same, but instead of Allison, you don't come anywhere near me." I stated getting tired of their argument.
"What?" Derek yelled.
"Its just until after the full moon." I shrugged going back to looking for something to eat.
"Yeah, but Keegan, I was born a werewolf. Scott was turned." He tried to reason.
"Its only fair. I'm done with this conversation." I said putting a pizza in the oven.
Scott started walking toward the door.
"Where you going Scott?" Derek asked.
"To Stiles." Scott walked out of the house taking my keys with him.
"He's going to Allison's isn't he?"
"Why do you think I said starting tomorrow?" I asked.

When we heard the front door open Derek immediately got off the bed and went straight to Scotts room. In case you're wondering, Scott knows Derek has been staying here.
I sighed and grabbed some clothes going to shower.
When I was finished I brushed my teeth and got dressed. I stepped out of the bathroom to see Derek setting on the bed.
"Did you talk to Scott?" I asked putting my books back into my book bag.
"Yeah, he saw him. He said he drew a spiral." I looked at him not knowing what the spiral meant.
I shrugged it off and got into bed.
----
"Turn it off." I heard Derek say from beside me.
I turned off the alarm and got up. Going to my closet I picked out a gray long sleeved shirt, and a pair of pink skinny jeans. I went to my bathroom. And changed. I brushed my teeth and curled my hair, I then water fall braided it, I done my makeup last. Looking at my reflection I smiled and walked into my room and over to my closet putting on a pair of gray pumps. Grabbing my things I walked over to my bed and woke Derek.
"Hey, I'm going to school, and remember what I said last night." I said after shaking him a little more.
I walked out and grabbed my keys from the bowl and went out to my car.
----
It was now my free period and Scott and Stiles dragged me out to the lacrosse field.
"What exactly are you two doing again?" I asked.
"I'm gonna help Scott get ready for the full moon." Stiles said like it was obvious.
I sat down on the bench next to Stiles as he was searching for something in his bag.
"Put this on." He said handing something to Scott.
"Isn't this one of the track monitors for the track team?" Scott asked.
"Yeah, I borrowed it." Stiles lied.
"Stole it." I scoffed.
"Temporarily misappropriated. Coach uses it to monitor his heart rate with his phone while he jogs, you're gonna wear it for the rest of the day." Stiles said rolling his eyes at me, I just laughed.
"Isn't that coaches phone?" Scott asked looking at the phone.
"That, I stole." Stiles shrugged.
"Why?" I asked.
"Alright, well, your heart rate goes up when you go wolf, right?" He asked looking at Scott. "When you're playing lacrosse, when you're with Allison, whenever you get angry. Maybe learning to control it is tied with learning how to control your heart rate."
At first I didn't get what he was saying now I do. I looked at the time to see school was over.
"Hey, I gotta go, I told Lydia I would go to the mall with her." I said grabbing my things.
"Bye, remember, no seeing Derek." Scott called after me.
I held up my thumb and continued walking. I saw Lydia leaning against my car when I got to the parking lot.
-----
I parked in the front so that way we didn't have to walk far.
"So, haven't talked to you in a while." She said as we made our way toward Macy's.
"Yeah, I've been busy with school." I said.
We walked to the clothes racks. I found a few crop tops, high waisted skirts, shorts, and skinny jeans, and a couple pairs of shoes.
"How are you and Jackson?" I asked grabbing my change.
"We're great!" She smiled.
I smiled as well knowing that something was going on between them, but I didn't want to push her, so I let it go.
