"Hey Stiles -Lydia, Allison and I have something to do, so see you guys later?" I asked them giving Stiles a quick nod. Allison and I decided to go to Morell, our school counselor. Allison thought she might be able to read the Bestiary.

"So what's going on between you and Stiles?" I quickly turn my gaze, blushing intensely. Is it written on my forehead – Alicia has a crush on Stiles - ?

"There's nothing going on between us, just friends," I said playing dumb. What else am I supposed to say? If I admit that I have a crush on Stiles Stilinski, I also have to admit the rest of my feelings. I'm falling in love with him and I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not.  

"O come on Alicia. I saw your little moment back in the janitors closet," Allison said talking about the arm around my shoulder thing. But before I can give her a comeback she sums up the rest of the things we apparently do "And the staring, the holding hands, the quick glances, you both blush a lot in each other's company. Do I have to go on?" she giggles when she noticed me looking away in embarrassment

"I can't like him okay?!" I said frustrated. "Derek doesn't like him and he probably doesn't like me like that. What if he's still in love with Lydia?" and there it is again, the jealousy. But how can you not? Lydia is the most beautiful girl in the school, what am I saying the most beautiful girl in Beacon hills. Her pretty long strawberry-blonde  hair, her perfect skin, she's extremely intelligent. She's just perfect.

"What does Derek have to do with it? And yes he loved Lydia, until you came. You're all that he talks about. The way your hair blows in the wind, how your eyes sparkle when you laugh. Oh and not to forget he likes the way you sleep, just like Sleeping beauty he said," my cheeks flush red at her words. Does he really say that about me? Huh, look at me who would have thought I - Alicia Hale  -  would act like this.  lovestruck.

"How do you know all this?" I asked hoping she would give me a proper answer and not that she just made this all up so I would admit my feelings towards him.

"Aww, look at you, your hopelessly in love." My hand covers her mouth as soon as she finished that sentence. "Be quiet, everyone can her you," I say in a hushed tone looking around the hall that is crowded with students, hopefully no one heard her or saw her almost jump through the roof in excitement.

"okay, okay. I know this because Scott told me what Stiles had said when you left his house the morning after you stayed over at his house. So when are you going to tell him?" she squeals the last part.

"I think never." And before she can say anything else I knock on the door of Morell's office and she allows us to enter. Not waiting for the question – what can I do for you? - because  I already had given her the Bestiary.

Morell looked at us confused. "Do you mind me asking where you got this? the book?"

Allison shrugs her shoulders "Um, a family heirloom." She turns her gaze to me and back to Morell.

"Interesting family." She said flipping through the printed pages. "I'm pretty familiar with most romance languages, but this is a little out of my reach."

I sigh in disappointment "Can you give it a shot?"

She glanced at me before turning back to the pages with a sigh "All right, um - "Kanima - " Do I have that right?" She asked us with raised eyebrows questioning is she translated it right.

I nod as Allison answers "Yeah."

""Like the wolf, its power is greatest at the moon's peak. Huh. Sounds like a werewolf."  She chuckles thinking it's all just a fairytail. "Oh, there's some words here I don't recognize."
