"Stiles, you need to get up! I'm leaving!" The sheriff called from the kitchen and Stiles jolted up. He had been having some bad nightmares lately. But, today, Stiles decided that he wasn't going to be fazed by these dreams. Today was his 18th birthday and he had been waiting for over a year for this day.

"Coming!" He groaned before pushing himself out of bed and over to his dresser. He quickly threw on his favorite red flannel and some jeans before rushing downstairs, a grin already appearing on his face.

"Hey Dad-"He started before his dad raised his finger to silence him, gesturing to the phone by his ear. Stiles ignored the feeling of hurt in his gut and nodded weakly, sitting down at the table without a word. Stiles knew that being the Sheriff meant that his dad was always busy but, he had hoped today would be different. Guess not. He slumped down his chair before grabbing a piece of hard toast from the plate on the table. He quietly chewed it and raised his gaze to his dad when he heard the phone click off.

"Stiles, I got to head to the station. See you later, kiddo," The Sheriff announced before grabbing his coat and racing out. Stiles froze and stared, his heart thudding in his chest.

"Bye..." He murmured with a sigh and finished up the toast before heading out as well.

Scott will remember. Dad's just busy. Stiles assured himself as he slid into his jeep and started off to Scott's house. When he pulled into his best friend's driveway, he was greeted by one angry Scott.

"Dude, you're late!" Scott growled as he yanked open the car door and jumped in. Stiles stared, wide eyed, and Scott pointed to the clock. "Only 20 minutes till School starts."

"Oh, yeah. Sorry," Stiles regained composure and started the car back up before driving off. Surely Scott didn't forget. Stiles knew that he told him over 30 times. Gotta find out.

"So, um, any plans tonight?" Stiles asked quietly and Scott gave a grin.

"Yeah, I'm taking Allison to the party," He responded with a dreamy smile. Stiles averted his gaze back to the road and felt his hands clench on the steering wheel. "You?"

"Nothing," Stiles snapped back and sped up. Scott turned to face him and raised an eyebrow.

"What's wrong?" He questioned and Stiles scoffed before pulling into his usual parking spot.

"Ask Allison," He retorted and got out of the car, leaving Scott in a state of confusion.

Stiles hurried to his locker and grabbed his books. He looked around for any sign of his other friends but none. He jogged over to first hour and sat down, glancing around. That's when he spotted Lydia. He sighed in relief and waved over to her. She gave a smile in return but, class started.

After what seemed like forever, class finally ended but, before Stiles could greet Lydia, she rushed out and off to her second class. It went on like this for most classes, his friends ignoring him and then, lunch came. Stiles entered the cafeteria with the spirit that he would confront his friends. However, when he arrived, his gut dropped. They were laughing, not even noticing he was gone. Scott sat next to Allison, grinning and wrapping his arm around her. Isaac sat next to Jackson and Lydia. Bailey gave a cheeky grin before turning away, a frown forming on her face. Stiles walked forward and studied her as she gazed around the room. Stiles felt his heart thump as he noticed all her features.
