Update: I'm officially in 302 so this is after the ice bath and root cellar. Hence, Stiles, Scott, and Allison acting tired and weary.

I walk down the hall, Paige beside me. I keep my head down. I didn't want Herto know. As I get to my locker, I don't move it. The only thing moving is my hands, to open my locker.As soon as I get it open, Paige turns to me.

"Okay, what's wrong with you? You've been acting..." She turns to her locker And dials the number. "Tense. All morning." She stops and thinks. "Actually...all week." She says, pieces connecting in her brain. I huff.

"Sorry I just haven't been...sleeping well lately." I say and it's not a lie. I think of him. I haven't been sleeping well since the full moon.
Since I have seen his fangs.

Then, as she opens her locker door, someone walks up behind her. Stiles. He looks tired, and if I knew any better, I'd say he is having nightmares as well. But why? Scott was now walking up behind him. Scott. He might know something.

"Hey, babe!" paige says and almost all the tiredness drains from Stiles. Almost. I watch as they hug, and kiss each other lightly on each others lips. Huh. when did this happen? I shift my gaze to scott.

"Scott!" I exclaim and he snaps from his exhausted gaze from space. I motion for him to come here, and he does.

I look around, making sure I'm in the clear. Paige and Stiles are still "Hello-Ing" so I got time.

"I saw Isaac turn into.." I look up at Scott, his eyes widened. He knew. I huff. "You already know, don't you?" He slowly nods.

"But. How-" He stops me.

"Just let me explain. The truth. You can handle it." He huffs and takes my hand. Not in a boyfriend way, but a brother way. Like I could trust him. We dodged kids in the hall, towards the door leading to the lacrosse field.
---
He lets go of my hand as we get outside. I feel dejavu. It was like the time Isaac asked me to the game...

We sit down at the bottom bleacher and Scott explains everything.

Everything.

Even the face he's a werewolf ,too. and this guy Derek is. Something about Scott being the True Alpha?

He explains the root cellar and ice baths. He explains the dreams and how they've been seeing things. I know this seems like too much to take in, but for some odd reason, I feel I know this all. Like I've read it somewhere before...

"But you can't tell anyone. Not even Paige. You're in danger now, Grace. I told you because I know you can fight. Paige can't know. She can get hurt. anyone can." He says, staring into the distance. I gulp.
I nod.
He smiles.

"When's the next full moon?" I ask.
Scott gulps and looks at me.
"Next Friday."
His eyes start to glow red. I know I should be scared, but I'm not.
I'm not scared of him.
Not even Isaac.
