The Bite

Chapter 2

Claire's Pov:

Only a few more days till the full moon. I could lie, say that I was perfectly fine, which is nothing new. Or I could tell Scott and Stile's that I literally am freaking out because of the body, and thinking that maybe whoever did that to the body is still there. I guess i'll have to suck it up.

Scott called both Stiles and I, so we could help him look for his inhaler he dropped last night. At least it was daytime and the forest wasn't totally creepy.

As we were in the spot where Scott dropped his inhaler, he says "I could've sworn it was right here?" Stiles said "you sure? I mean it was dark out."

Scott said "It was here. The deer came and I...." Stiles gasped, pulling Scott's body upwards. I looked at him saying "Guys he's staring." Stile's said "That's Derek Hale....his family all burned to death in a fire years ago. He's only like a few years older than us."

"Oh he kind of scares me actually." I say to the boys hoping they would get the hint, so we could leave.

Derek started walking towards us, I held onto Scott's arm for safety. He said "What are you doing here, this is private property. You can't be here." Scott says "Looking for my u-uh...."

Derek threw Scott's inhaler and Scott caught it. He gave Derek an awkward thank you, then we turned around to head back to Stile's car.

We got to school pretty quickly, just in time for first period which was english. I see Scott looking out the window, I can tell he is listening to the girl outside who's on her phone.

When that new girl comes into our classroom and takes a seat, Scott hands her a pen. She gives him a smile, then focuses on taking notes.

All day so far seeing how a random girl out of nowhere, manages to catch Scott's eye. Call me overprotective....im actually a little jealous. I really like Scott but for some reason he seemed mesmerized by the new girl.

Scott's Pov:

I could tell in first period that Claire was jealous. It's almost like I could smell it on her, which was weird. And pretty much all day she hasn't talked to me, which kinda sucks actually. I mean she is my best friend.

I get to the lunch room and see Stile's sitting there with Claire. I sit next to her and take one of her chips. "No fair, I never steal your food." She says. I tell her "If you love me, you'll forgive me?"

She was about to speak when Stiles interrupted, "Will I always be invisible to her?" he says, his eyes transfixed on Lydia. Claire laughs a little then says "Hey cheer up Stiles. Don't worry im sure she'll come around."

Tomorrow night, is Lydia's party which I invited Allison to. The funny thing is she actually said yes to me! Which I was pretty freaking happy about.

Stile's Pov:

Time for lacrosse tryouts. I technically don't have to worry because I won't even get to play, since im second line. But hey, im here for moral support for my best friend who thinks he'll make first line.

I see Claire in the stands and I also see Allison and Lydia in the stands as well. I wave to Lydia even though I know she doesn't see me. I catch Claire giggling at me, because she saw me wave to Lydia.

Coach puts Scott in as goalie which means he's about to get many balls to the face. Pardon my pun....well not really.

He gets hit in the face, and the people in the stands all cringe. I say "Walk it off Scott! Walk it off!" then I shake my head.

I was thinking about earlier at lunch when Scott and Claire were talking. She looked like she really wanted to say back to Scott 'I love you.' Even if he was just being annoyingly cute.

A few minutes later I see Claire looking over at Allison. I turn to see Scott looking over at Allison. I look back at Allison and see her whisper something.

I then turn back to Claire and see her head turn to me, there were veins popping out in her neck, and her eyes had this "serial killer" look in them. Holy hell, this is not going to end well.

I go over to Claire and say "Hey uh Claire....you should breathe....Just take a deep breath." I whispered to her so that no one could hear.

I grabbed her hand and said "Claire look at me! I know it hurts. I've seen how you look at Scott. And to see him look at another girl like that....it kills you." She starts to breathe normally now, her fists slowly unclenched.

I see Allison going after Scott, then I see Claire running off in the same direction. Im so happy we're the only three who know about Scott & Claire.

I just walked into the locker room. I saw Scott & Allison near the showers. Oh that's so not cool, how close they are.

I glance towards the ceiling and I see Claire there. Eyes glowing, claws out, fangs to. Oh crap she shifted. She was watching Scott and Allison. They were getting closer to each other.

I could see Claire starting to breathe heavily, she was getting ready to come down. But then they kissed.

When she saw them kiss, she shifted back. I saw a tear roll down her cheek. Oh damn this was going to change things.

Scott and Allison waved bye as they walked out. I stood there waiting for Claire to come to her senses.

She looked at me as we sat on one of the benches. "Stiles....he kissed her." I put my arm around her so she could lean on my head.

"I know Claire, it hurts. Don't worry i'll kick his ass myself." Normally she would laugh at my crude humor, but this time she just got up and walked away.

Damn it Scott look what you did! I mean how could he do that to Claire? How could he not see that she has been in love with him since elementary school?

My best friend is officially a douchebag. And now he probably ruined his friendship with Claire. I'm going to smack some sense into him.

**** Oh dang! Scott why would you do that?

Didn't expect that plot twist did you?

Be ready for a new chapter soon. ****
