--ELLIE—

Taking in a deep breath, Ellie reluctantly turned around, expecting to immediately get attacked. Seeing a concerned looking Allison, a long sigh escaped Ellie’s lips, her head falling downward in relief.

“Jesus, Allison! You scared the hell out of me!” Ellie breathed out, her gaze now upon Allison again.

Allison shook her head, her hands falling to her sides. “I’m sorry, we were just worried about you. Are you okay?” She questioned.

Ellie nodded, her hands now rested on her hips. “Just nervous. I-I know those boys who just came in. Those monsters.”

A look of confusion was on Allison’s face as she leaned against the wall. “Are you talking about Ethan and Aidan?”

“Yes, those two. Do you know what they do?” Ellie responded, not waiting for Allison to answer her before she went on. “They-“

Before Ellie could finish her sentence, Allison cut in. “They combine to make one huge werewolf. Yeah, we know.” She informed Ellie, though she was calm about it.

Ellie’s eyes widened. “How are you so calm about that? They are a killing machine! Why haven’t you and your father killed them yet? Bloody hell, you’re the Argent family! Isn’t it in your code to protect innocent people from them?”

Biting her lips, Allison shook her head. ”We couldn’t kill that whole alpha pack. Plus at the time, we were supposed to stay away from all of the supernatural world.”

Ellie furrowed her eyebrows. “The alpha pack was here?” She asked, making it obvious she was shocked.

“Yeah. A few months ago.”

“But…where are they now?” Ellie questioned, crossing her arms over her chest.

A small smirk spread across Allison’s lips. “There is no more alpha pack anymore, Ellie.”

--JACKSON--

After about five minutes, Ellie and Allison finally came back to the table. As all of them begin eating their food, Scott and Allison explained all of the events that had taken place in Beacon Hills months earlier. Jackson was more than happy he had left when he did.

“Where is Derek at now?” Ellie questioned.

Scott and Allison glanced at each other before looking over at Ellie.

“Derek’s gone. He’s not an alpha anymore.” Scott informed them.

“If he’s not the alpha then..” Jackson trailed off, raising an eyebrow.

Hitting her hand against the table, Ellie half stood up. “It’s you! I knew it! I told you, Jackson. I knew Scott was an alpha!” She practically cheered.

A giggle escaped from Allison’s lips, causing all of them to laugh.

“If I would have stayed instead of going to London, I probably wouldn’t even be alive today.” Jackson mumbled, staring down at his fries.

Ellie leaned over, kissing his cheek, resting her head chin on her shoulder as she looked at him. ”Don’t think about what could’ve happened, think about what did and where we are now.”

A smile came onto Jackson’s face. “You’re right.” He said softly, resting his forehead against hers.

After about thirty minutes of talking, the waitress told them it was closing. Jackson paid for the dinner, all of them saying their goodbyes as they went out to the car.
